Nightmare visions include a face being torn off to reveal a staring skull, a geyser of blood pouring out of a victim's bed and pooling in defiance of gravity on the ceiling, and so forth. It's dream-like, but fatalities still result. The young people at the center of the film, though very highly evolved for horror-movie teens circa 1984, are ...

Jan 4, 2021 · This is a review of Nightmares 1-3, not just the original! NIGHTMARE 1: A very fun, but gory slasher. Some gory violence with LOTS of blood, and a brief sex scene under sheets. My rating: Rated R for some strong violence, disturbing bloody images, language and brief sexuality. NIGHTMARE 2: A fine sequel to the original.

The good news is that a rewatch reveals that the Nightmare on Elm Street remake isn't as horrible as I remembered. The bad news is it's still awful. The film has a lot going for it with a great cast led by Rooney Mara, Kyle Gallner, Connie Britton and of course, Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy, who all do their best to elevate the material. Haley turn...
The Dream Child is the first truly irredeemable entry in theNightmare on Elm Street franchise and it is borderline unwatchable. The film squanders Alice, the fantastic final girl introduced in the preceding and greatly superior The Dream Master, who becomes an utter drag this time around. It also has serious daddy issues and gets lost in a boring m...
Freddy's Revenge is not good, and perhaps the biggest sin in a Nightmare on Elm Street film, it's not fun. It also makes absolutely no sense. Whatever logic and rules the first film established were casually tossed out the window to make way for a story that has no place within the grander mythology of the franchise. While all the other films are a...
Ah, Freddy's Dead. What a mindless clusterfuck of a film. And yet, it's so weird and so oddball that it's still enjoyable. That's a fairly unpopular opinion. You'll find Freddy's Deadat the bottom of most people's rankings, and I can respect that (Freddy dons a witches cap and flies around on a broom at one point, so yeah, I get it), but there's so...
Freddy vs. Jason is a special kind of stupid. It makes no sense of as a concept and barely holds up in execution, but it's such a gleefully idiotic rampage that it's impossible not to enjoy. The concept is all there in the title. It’s literally a three-word concept. Franchise headliners Freddy Kruger and Jason Vorhees are pitted against each other ...
The Dream Master lives on the line of being too campy, but it lives on the right side of it. Some of it is truly goofy, and it never reaches the cohesive excellence of Dream Warriors, but it is a good bit of fun and way better than any third sequel has the right to be. A direct continuation of Dream Warriors' story, The Dream Master picks up with K...
New Nightmare is barely a Nightmare on Elm Street sequel. It's almost more of a spin-off. But's it's wonderful. It's also Wes Craven's prototype for Scream, in which he flexed his meta-muscles for the first time, utterly obliterating the fourth wall with a ballsy, cerebral mindfuck. After years away from the franchise, Craven returned to write, dir...
The only reason Dream Warriors ranks second is because there can only be one first place. Next to the original, it's the most perfect A Nightmare On Elm Street ever got. Dream Warriors is faithful to the logic of the universe established in the first film, but expands the mythology and ups the action in the way that only the best sequels do. By int...
Aug 21, 2024 · R. A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child continues the infamous saga of Freddy Krueger, the supernatural killer, as he invades the dreams of young Alice Johnson. Released in 1989, the film follows Alice's struggle to protect her unborn child, who becomes the latest target of Krueger’s deadly hauntings.
