The best of the series, period!

Rating: 8/10 (4 April 2003)

In fact it isn't even close. This is about the only Nightmare I fully enjoy. It is a creepy, highly atmospheric horror that delivers. It centers on these teenagers that seem to be having the same dreams of this strange man. This man in their dream menaces them and terrorizes them. In fact, if he injures you in the dream you will have the injury when you awaken. This movie had a very good story and a great killer in Freddy. Unfortunately, in later episodes Freddy became a comedian and his overall creepiness disappeared. This one, however, is great as there are some very memorable death scenes.
