Classic supernatural slasher film!

Rating: 10/10 (15 January 2020)

In the 80's, Wes Craven brought a new horror icon: Freddy Krueger and a new last girl: Nancy Thompson. The script was something new at that time, reality, dreams and revenge. The teen slasher films were highly popular by then, but Craven mixed the serial killer with a supernatural elements, then "A Nightmare on Elm Street" was one of the first supernatural slasher movies and Freddy Krueger a creepy villain. Nancy Thompson was played by Heather Langenkamp, a great performance, a scream queen, but this character was not the usual helpless last girl, she was the first strong last girl, fighting for survive. The music score is creepy and beautiful. Craven's direction amazing. A masterpiece.
