Fantastic Film

Rating: 9/10 (29 October 2011)

"A Nightmare on Elm Street" is a fantastic film. Horror movies aren't my thing but I thought this was great. It had my attention the whole way through and there wasn't a second where I was bored. Freddy is a great character and I love the way he is shown in this movie. One thing I didn't like was the scene with his long arms. That just looked stupid. Some of the acting isn't great . Heather Langenkamp was good and fit her role but in a few scenes her acting wasn't great. She got better in Nightmare 3. However the worst performance was Ronee Blakley as Nacy's mother. She was very bad and lacked express. Tina was a horrible character as well. So anyways the film is good, the music is very fitting and creepy and I recommend watching it. Nowadays most people just want 1000 gory bloody deaths in a movie but this movie doesn't need that to be scary. In fact the body count is only 3(or 4?) people. Anyways just watch it.
