Samuel Pack Elliott (born August 9, 1944) is an American actor. His rangy physique, thick horseshoe mustache, and deep, resonant voice (with a Western twang/drawl) match the iconic image of a cowboy or rancher, and he has often been cast in such roles.
A series based on the horror icon created by Wes Craven. "The Children of Elm Street" focuses on the story behind Springwood Slasher. The life, past, life-long murders committed by Krueger and his relationship with the children's parents on Elm Street. The first three seasons take place in the 1980s with a Freddy Krueger over suspicion murdering and abusing children while nurturing a colossal love for his daughter, the final three seasons are devoted to a Freddy Krueger already acting as a supernatural entity and pursuing revenge in the dream world, awakened by his daughter's return to Springwood. The purpose of the series is to devote a depth never given to Krueger and Elm Street's parents and children. Never sleep again!
