Good, Solid Movie

Rating: 8/10 (29 July 2003)

In a time where bad movies (usually horror and/or comedies)ran rampant all over movie theaters and television sets throught the decade, there were a few shining gems that were actually not low-budget cheese at all, but well-made, influential films. One of them is "Nightmare On Elm Street". Although today, the cliches in the film have been seen many times before, when this came out, it was (for the most part) all brand new and exciting. Watching the film today, I realized that it is still a good film and always will be one, no matter what time period it is being watched in.
