The folks in Spain took a break from celebrating their World Cup victory last night to get their kicks at the Madrid premiere of Pesadilla en Elm Street (gringo translation: Nightmare on Elm Street). Jackie Earle Haley, who plays Freddy Krueger in the Platinum Dunes remake, sported a Spanish soccer jersey to the event and even demonstrated some of his moves (see gallery below).

Joining Haley at the shindig were many of Spain’s celebrities including actors Ana Fernandez, Andrea Duro, the very cute Ursula Corbero, Luis Fernandez, Gonzalo Ramos, pop singers Angie, Labuat, and Edurne, and Spanish designer Carlos Diez.

Actress Aroa Gimeo was also in attendance. Gimeno stars in the Spanish short film Zombies & Cigarettes and the Spanish soap “Sin Tetas No Hay Paraiso,” which translated literally means “Without Tits, There is No Paradise.” It’s funny because it’s true.
