A Nightmare On Elm Street

Rating: Null/10 (5 March 2004)

A Nightmare on elm street is an intelligent horror movie about a girl who does everything to stay awake and not fall asleep. The reason is because she´s afraid that a man in her dreams is going to kill her there which means that she will be dead in real life.
The idea for this movie is fantastic. The movie is fresh and exciting and keeps many on the edge for the entire time.
The character Freddie Krueger is scary in this one. A Former child molester and a killer whose afterlife is about killing all the children of Elm Street.
The acting is okay for the most part. The movie is done very well on some levels merely cinematography and direction but somehow they didn´t spend too much money on special effects. The movie still manages somehow to overlook that factor and give the audience what it came after. Scares, excitement and originality. The music is horrid for the most part. The Dream scenes are great and are indeed dreamlike.
Overall this film is a splendid movie for horror and movie fans who want to see blood, guts and excitement as well as a movie about an interesting subject.
