As always, NECA remains horror central at the American International Toy Fair (going on this week in New York City) with their ongoing array of classic horror franchise action figures. At their booth this year, they were showing off their new A Nightmare on Elm Street Freddy figures, Jason figures from the Friday the 13th films and new additions to their Evil Dead line.

Our friends over at Dread Central scored the exclusive work-safe trailer for A Wet Dream on Elm Street. This porno spoof of the horror classic features a Freddy with dildo fingers instead of knives and scissors. The video is work-safe in the sense that there is no sex or nudity, but you may want to keep the volume low, unless your work would be amused by the line, "She's getting fingered into unconciousness!"
Check it out after the jump.

File this one under "What took them so long": production on the XXX parody of A Nightmare on Elm Street is underway. Wet Dream on Elm Street comes to us from director Lee Roy Meyers, the brains behind The Human Sexipede. Wet Dream stars Sophie See, Gracie Glam, Charley Chase, Mishka, Chad Alva, and Chris Johnson. Anthony Rosano stars as Freddy Fingers, the murdered sex shop clerk who is out for (sexy) revenge. Check out images, a behind-the-scenes clip and "plot" synopsis after the break.

Editor's note: If you've been reading Clive Barker's new Hellraiser comic book series from Boom! Studios, then you know that Barker's co-writer Chris Monfette knows more than a thing or two bout sucessfully relaunching a beloved horror film franchise in funnybook form. So we asked Monfette if he could suggest five other franchises that deserve a second life on the comics page. His choices, and the reasons he gives, may surprise you. (And yes, we know that A Nightmare on Elm Street has already been continued in comics; but in this case, Monfette has, quite frankly, come up with a way to do it better.) Check them out after the jump!
