A Nightmare Worth Experiencing

Rating: 8/10 (12 July 2019)

What can you do when sleep becomes the enemy? The brilliance of this film is that simple haunting question. No one can stay away for forever. Freddy Krueger invades his victims dreams and is brought to life in such a beautifully grotesque way to where the viewer struggles anxiously to pull their eyes away from the screen. Heather Langenkamp as Nancy shines on screen as the movie takes it's twists and turns for both the better and worse. It's hard to argue why this movie isn't a gem in it's own right, and it's clear to see why New Line is "The House that Freddy Built."
