A New Dimension of Terror

Rating: 8/10 (27 August 2001)

Man! I must say that this is one of the best horror flicks of all time on account of its originality in terms of plot, pacing as well as inventive killing scenes.
The idea of having a boogeyman stalking you in a dream "for real" is over the top for horror film genre. Wes Craven did a brilliant job in creating the notorious horror icon to day (i.e. Freddy Krueger) as well as another phase or realm of terrifying spectrum (killing in dream).

Though the ending seems confusing to a certain extent, part 3 of the film pretty much explained what actually happened to the lead (Nancy) in the first film as spoken through Nancy's mouth.
This is a must-see for horror fans. Oh! By the way, the DVD transfer of this film is great with sharp & colorful images as well as wonderful sound.
