One of the best horror films ever made

Rating: Null/10 (3 April 2009)

A Nightmare on Elm Street is simply one of the best horror films ever made. It reinvented so many new horror ideas. It is one of the most original horror films ever made. It is gory, entertaining fun. I thought that the characters were all realistic, and I thought the acting for the most part was good. However, some of the dialogue is cheesy, and some of the acting at times is atrocious, but it really did not matter. It made me scream, it made me laugh, and for certain, one of the most enjoyable times I have had watching a film. This film deserves all of it's praise, but I cannot help but compare it to Wes Craven's other slasher film, Scream (1996), which I actually think is his best film of his career.
