Product: New Nightmare [VHS] (1994)
Rating: 3.0
Disappointing!
Ok, Dont get me wrong this was an ok movie but it just didnt have a high enough body count. The suspense was there and so was most of the other elements of a horror movie. The idea of a movie in a movie was a brilliant idea by horror king Wes Craven. What really suprised me about this film was that Freddy wasnt even in the movie that much it concentrated more on character development,which I thought was a big no no. I mean when people go to watch a nightmare on elm street movie they pay to see freddy kill a bunch of half wit teenagers in unusually gruesome ways. Well not in this movie kiddies. In fact the unusual low body count in this film I think was 4 people. And the deaths had all been done in previous Nightmare films (ex when the baby sitter gets clawed and dragged up the wall. That same scene happened to a girl named tina in the first part) Fans of the previous Freddy movies may even find themselves falling asleep on this one. But for those who like a good scary movie without a lot of gore may like this. Rated R for very little violence.
