Have you guys not seen Nightmare on Elm Street? The last scene was kinda directly inspired by a scene from the first movie (Johnny Depp’s first role btw). Definitely moving more towards the R-rated horror genre with the 80s movie references this season (not the family friendly Poltergeist, Star Wars, Ghostbusters, Indiana Jones… etc).
You should watch Every Stranger Things Movie Reference Revealed by the Duffer Brothers (Seasons 1-3) on YouTube.

Thats actually wrong. It was a re cast. No de-aging was done. Possibly some cgi touch ups tho.

The beginning clip of 11 was not a recast, it was a deaging of Millie Brown
