The Film Arsenal: Freddy's Glove


Happy Halloween everyone and welcome back to The Film Arsenal. Freddy Krueger you know him, you fear him, you love him. So lets talk about his personal weapon of choice the clawed glove. Introduced in A Nightmare on Elm Street, the clawed glove has been the right hand of death to those who Freddy has crossed paths with. This "handy" weapon has made the character menacing, popular, and memorable even up to this day. One swipe from this glove and it can leave a hell of a mess on Freddy's victims. It slices, it dices, it skews, makes a nifty game controller, and makes a handy apple peeler. Throughout eight films only two other people have used this weapon but not as affectively as Freddy. The only person who can stand up against the clawed glove is none other than Jason Voorhees. The clawed claw don't go to bed without it.
