We think it's safe to say the original dream stalker deserves this accolade and then some. Actor/Director Robert Englund, aka Freddy Krueger to some, will be on hand at the 2010 NYC HORROR FILM FESTIVAL to accept the Lifetime Achievement Award for his work in both horror and the world of film...

Not only will Robert Englund have his spot in the lime light but the show is packed to the gills with other must see films. Feast on the list below.
