[using Mara's voice] This one is different than the "Friday the 13th" series. 26 July 2009 | by Aaron1375 – See all my reviews Of course, the fact that it is different than that series is both good and bad. This one is more of the "Tales from the Darkside" type of storytelling to it, and it actually had something to do with the movie. The Friday series had nothing to do with the movie, but had a nice running story. Freddy starred in this one, but a lot of the times he was more the host of the show rather than an actual participant. However, he did appear as the star of some of the episodes...think "Tales from the Crypt", but with the crypt keeper occasionally doing some of the dirty work himself.

The stories varied in type and such as I remember one about survivors of a plane crash or something becoming cannibals and I also remember one involving Freddy and a cop, kind of a look back on how Freddy became Freddy. In the end a bit of an unnecessary show, there were already plenty of shows like this at the time that were superior in storytelling, the only thing new this one brought to the table was having the famous Freddy Krueger as a host. 4 of 5 people found this review helpful.

See more » Connections Anatoliy Dudaev Super Reviewer It's amazing to me that filmmakers can't summon up competent remakes of old horror films. Given the source material, and the advancements in special effects, a remake of "A Nightmare On Elm Street", should have been a slam dunk. Instead, it was a miserable, and often boring, disaster. The writing is awful, the characters are lifeless, and the use of C.G.I. in the dream sequences is underwhelming. Jackie Earle Haley's interpretation of Freddy was passable, but there's no way it could overcome the mundane storytelling. This movie is garbage. Jason Calvin Super Reviewer ½ I feel sorry for whoever was involved in this movie. Not only did they waste their time, but they got payed for basically ruining the original movie which is one of the best horror movies of all time. The remake to the 1984 Nightmare on Elm Street just shows that remakes never as good as the original.

(With few exceptions) Freddy Krueger is just going around killing teens in their dreams and that's the gist of the plot. One thing I was really bothered by is that the scenes in this movie are taken exactly from the original, even almost shot for shot. I know it's a remake, but if you don't add something new then the movie is just dull. The characters in this version aren't as likeable either. In this version Nancy just looks all goth and looks like she doesn't like anybody or anything. The original potrayed Nancy as charismatic and believable as a tortured teen afraid of dreaming. The actors are all really boring as well. Rooney Mara plays Nancy and her line reading is enough to put anyone to sleep. (I suppose if she wants to prevent her friends from sleeping all she has to do is just shut up.) Jackie Earle Haley takes on the role of Freddy Krueger and I really don't like that choice. He talks like he has throat cancer and he's not as fun as Robert Englund's Freddy. The original Freddy was dark and twisted but he also had a funny side to him. ("Welcome to prime time, bitch!") Also, Freddy's design in this is just stupid looking.

He looks like Lord Voldemort's Asian brother. Despite my dislike for how depressing the film felt, I felt like the production value for this movie did a good job of matching that of the original. If you're a fan of Freddy Krueger, stick with the original. This version is just a mess and doesn't deliver the scares the way the original did. (Don't even get me started on the CGI wall scene in this movie.) Tyler Robertson Amanda Krueger | Horror Film Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia This page is retrieved from A Nightmare on Elm Street wiki. Amanda Krueger is a fictional character in the Nightmare on Elm Street series of movies. She is the mother of Freddy Krueger , and was played by Nan Martin in the third film and Beatrice Boepple in the fifth. She may be the same person as Sister Mary. Biography Edit At age 18, Amanda Krueger decided to become a nun, choosing "Mary Helena" as her name in Christ. Her first assignment as a nun was to care for the inmates in Westin Hills hospital, including the infamous tower (where the most insane patients were locked up).

Only a few days away from Christmas, Amanda was accidentally locked in the tower when the guards were in a hurry to go home to their families. She was left alone with the inmates for several days, and she was brutally raped and beaten many times during this ordeal. When she was finally found, she was barely alive and pregnant. Nine months later, Amanda gave birth to Frederick Charles Krueger (aka Freddy Krueger ). Shortly after, the infant was given over to the state and adopted by Mr. Underwood, an abusive alcoholic. Amanda Krueger followed her son's trial after he was arrested for the murders of several neighborhood children. Freddy was released on a technicality and Amanda was distraught, committing suicide shortly after she heard the news. Amanda's body was never found. The tower, where she hung herself, was sealed and that wing of the hospital closed. A head stone was placed in the Springwood cemetery for "Sister Mary Helena". Amanda's Grave. Amanda Krueger would return twice, in spirit form, to help those that were fighting her son Freddy. Her first appearance was in Dream Warriors .

Amanda appeared as an old nun going by her name Sister Mary Helena, trying to help doctor Neil Gordon save the last Elm Street children. At the end Neil found her grave site and learned Freddy's mother had been helping them. The second time was in The Dream Child . After his defeat in the The Dream Master , Freddy used Amanda to give birth to him again in the dream world. Upon his return, he remained afraid of his mother's power and tried to keep her sealed away. Alice Johnson, the heroine of the film, needed to find Amanda's resting place so that this power could be used in the fight. She didn't have enough time to search, so she had a friend try and find the body. The body was found and Amanda's spirit was freed just in time to help Alice defeat Freddy. After his defeat, Freddy was left in his infant form, which Amanda then absorbed back into her. Eventually he escaped, continuing his reign of terror in Freddy's Dead .

( 1,899) Synopsis Nancy, Kris, Quentin, Jesse and Dean all live on Elm Street. At night, they're all having the same dream--of the same man, wearing a tattered red and green striped sweater, a beaten fedora half-concealing a disfigured face and a gardener's glove with knives for fingers. And they're all hearing the same frightening voice...One by one, he terrorizes them within the curved walls of their dreams, where the rules are his, and the only way out is to wake up. But when one of their number dies a violent death, they soon realize that what happens in their dreams happens for real, and the only way to stay alive is to stay awake. Functioning on little to no sleep, the four surviving friends struggle to understand why them, why now, and what their parents aren't telling them. Buried in their past is a debt that has just come due, and to save themselves, they will have to plunge themselves into the mind of the most twisted nightmare of all... Freddy Krueger.

All Rights Reserved. My review 1 214 Owen Gleiberman I did jump a few times, and I liked Haley's dour malevolence, but overall, the new Nightmare on Elm Street is a by-the-numbers bad dream. Christine Champ Freddy's back -- and he's slicker and more sinister than ever. Peter Travers It's the Bay touch you feel in the way actors register as body count, characters go undeveloped, and sensation trumps feeling. A nightmare, indeed. Nigel Floyd This is the worst yet from Michael Bay's horror production company Platinum Dunes, which also brought you rubbish re-makes of Halloween and Friday the 13th. Stephen Garrett Jackie Earle Haley's Krueger is a blast, but the child-molester twist is more depressingly clinical than dream-logic harrowing. Liam Lacey The result of the new Nightmare is, at best, a kind of stand-off between predictability and competent execution.

Full Review Tom Long A Nightmare on Elm Street may be the most unneeded movie of the year. And that's saying something. User reviews Christi Nash April 8, 2015 Uneven. ..2nd Half Better if You Can Sit Through 1st Half The first time I watched this I simply lost interest, and I was a NoES fan from childhood, so decided to force myself to overcome my prejudice. The first half is generic and fairly bland with stilted acting (how come NONE OF THEM remember being 5? Unrealistic!

At least half of them should have been able to)...but the second half gets progressively better with both atmosphere and back story. Now that the bad actors are dead, anyway. Full Review Brandy Deeter March 30, 2015 Worst movie ever!!! I walked out of the theater without finishing the movie. For 1 Freddy is not a child molester. For 2 its no wonder Wes Craven didn't have anything to do with this movie. It was awful and any true die hard Freddy fan would agree with me. He didn't even look like Freddy. Worst remake ever I give it -500 stars! For those of you who agree with him being a sick baby rapist you're just as sick as the one who came up with the idea. Never in any of the original Freddy films did they ever say he molested the kids. Full Review Hailey Glaus April 16, 2013 Pretty good I like it. It was creepy and I like that. But one question how does Freddy do that go into dreams? Also can you imagine staying for days and days I can't stay up that long. The only thing that really killed the movie is the ending like what the crap he died.

So how, how that's the only thing that I hated about it. So are they making a second I don't know if they did but really is that a way to end that movie I'm just confused. Full Review Jeremy Keith November 8, 2014 I'm not even gonna watch it without Robert E there's is no real freddy just the Preview showed some bogus actor trying to act wow lol. Michael Bay I'm disappointed please try again oh I forgot you can't make freddy from a program and a computer so never mind Mr Bay..... Full Review Patrick Christopherson January 31, 2014 Good Remake! Overall, I felt this was a solid remake of the Nightmare movies. I like how it went back to it's horror roots (Like The Evil Dead and Chucky remakes did). I admit, the pedophile angle of Freddy was disturbing. Mr. Haley's take on Freddy was extremely good. Robert England will always be Freddy, but, it's nice to see that someone can carry the role. Full Review Gerry Stueve September 18, 2013 Worthless When will wannabe film makers ever get it?

You never do a remake of a classic horror movie especially when the original lead villain isn't in it and that original villain is what made the installments in the first place. I can understand Friday the 13th or Halloween since they have no role, just killing. Full Review Felicia Roberts August 8, 2016 I liked it I like all the nightmare movies including this one, for people saying he was not a pedophile he was one that is why the parents burned him up in the very first nightmare on elm street. it was not as obvious in the first elm street but it is implied. This new nightmare just goes into more detail about him and the kids. Full Review Tommy Gunn April 26, 2016 Horrible! This movie sucked so bad I was I could have the seconds of my life I wasted seeing this back. This guy does not do Freddy Krueger justice. Terrible actor. Don't waste your time watching it. Full Review Kamesha Haskett January 5, 2014 Hate I hate remakes this guy is nothing like the real freddy they make him seam like a old creep. He so suppose TO be scary not a creeper.

I hate this crap. And it's nothing like THE real one Full Review jamel Walker December 3, 2014 Not even scary Going into the movie I became Highly disappointed due to the fact that I thought it was at least going to be scary and it was everything but that and it ruined the entire movie, it did nothing for the franchise besides explain how he became freddy that's it. Full Review March 24, 2015 Heh... So, I've watched all the Nightmare on Elm Streets and I must say that this one is probably my favorite. Mostly because of the gory scenes and stuff. Yeah, it ain't perfect but it's decent enough. A little cheesy but not as unbearably cheesy as Dream Warriors... *Shudders.* I suppose it isn't better than the first one but still, the original had it's moment then and it still has it now but y'know, it's always fun to change it up. Full Review Nate Davies October 21, 2016 A paedophile. Murdered by a lynch mob. That's the origin story of the original. Don't believe me? Then you haven't seen the first one.

And for what ut's worth, this was just ok. Better than probably 4 or 5 of the sequels. Not great, not fantastic. Good for a lazy Saturday in October. I'm more of a Hatchet / Cabin in the Woods / Clive Barker fan. Full Review A Google User October 27, 2012 Took the franchise back to horror Okay, so Robert Englund wasn't Freddy. Now that we've covered that, this film did take the franchise back to being a dark, violent, twisted HORROR flick in which the last several COMEDIC MOCKERIES failed to deliver, i.e., Super Freddy, Nintendo-Glove Freddy. If you're gonna watch this expecting to see the original and a cameo with Englund, sure you're gonna be disappointed. If you're expecting a HORROR film with elements of the traditional franchise of fear-to-sleep-or-die, then this simply delivers. Full Review Eric Flapjack Ashley May 24, 2014 Awful Admirable effort to try and remake Freddy into being scary again, but the story and the characters are all awful.

A paint by numbers film that also adds the terrible subplot where petiole actually question if Freddy was guilty and unfairly treated. Don't waste my time with a stupid story device that ends exactly the way you think it should. Avoid. Full Review Lucas Mossman April 3, 2015 I dont know why people keep hating this movie Sure the acting is pretty bad, but it made a nightmare on elm street know that its supposed to be a horror franchise. Plus it was more dark and intense than the original, so everyone please stop hating on a pretty solid movie Full Review Leileya Night October 26, 2014 Atrocious! I grew up on the original Nightmare on Elm Street and this remake is a very poor rehash. The acting was terrible and non-engaging even the protagonist wasnt believable and I actually liked the character of Nancy. And Freddy? I laughed so hard it hurt! No suspense! Just goes to show no one did it better than Robert Englund. Should have let the series energy with Freddy vs. Jason Full Review Dylan Sander November 21, 2014 Not good because it's good, but... Personally, I enjoy this variation over the original.

Now, we all know that River Englund WAS Freddy Krueger. No one besides Jackie Earle Haley took the torch. But RE Freddy had too much fun with it, he was twisting jokes into nightmares. What I like more about JEH Freddy is that he puts the dark side back into Freddy. Sure, he's got a few smartass remarks. But he's something to fear. Full Review tess trafton October 21, 2014 Okay, except... The film was okay, not so scary. However, Whatever. Freddy Kruger on the other hand, looked like a complete melted down douche bag. Nothing beats Robert Englund. Full Review Jr Carlos March 28, 2014 Sucks Worst elm street movie ever... and it sounds like he is trying to do a batman voice wtf I want a refund it just mainly jumpscares Full Review johnny soiles January 4, 2013 Worst remake Hate how they changed the movie around n mad Freddy look like a crack head who got burnt... Ng....

I'd give it no stars Full Review Gabriel Hingle Stockstill January 27, 2013 Its crap The original ones are better than this one. It wasbt even scary and the beginning was so cheesy and the acting horrible! Full Review Sedona Jolley October 7, 2016 Y'all are too bitchy For those of you who "disagree" with this Freddy being a "baby rapist", THAT WAS WES CRAVEN'S ORIGINAL IDEA! The only reason he held off on it was because there was a highly reported child molestation case going on at the time that he was creating the first nightmare movie, and Mr. Craven decided against it so he wouldn't be accused of exploiting said case. Also, you guys are okay with Freddy Krueger straight up murdering children, but as soon as he pulls out the bad touch card, THAT'S the BIGGEST NONO? Smh Full Review K. Brownlee October 9, 2013 Was ok To everyone saying it's not as good as the original and Robert was better. WELL DUH YOU IDIOTIC MORONS!!! If you expected it to be just as good or better than the originals, you're stupid.

For a remake, it was good. I didn't like the character playing Freddy, he looked really oriental and it threw me off but the plot was actually really good. Full Review A,K.A. Gizmo October 22, 2014 Sucked!! My main gripe about this picture is the fact that they made Freddy out to be a child rapist when in fact he was are child murderer!! His m.o. had nothing to do with pedophilia!!! Full Review Michael Chinn April 5, 2015 Ive seen more complexity in a couch from ikea I was hoping for what happend with the 2004 remake of dawn of the dead. Change up the characters but stay somewhat true to the original in some way so it feels like a new story but brings glory to the name. This piece of s*** was a boring retellimg of a story ive already heard.

4/10 Full Review Humanpizza 821 April 21, 2015 Not the same as the old ones The movie is OK but not that good I miss the old scary CLASSIC Freddy Full Review Daryn Slater August 13, 2013 Hated it soooooo much Piece of poop. You guys need to know how to leave stuff alone. I missed Robert Englund. Full Review Colgate Smile October 22, 2015 Great BTW R.I.P WES CARVEN This movie is great, it got very deep into the nightmare and all, they used most of Wes Carvens characters, but the acting wasn't great and the production like come one make it more gory. I was surprised Michael Bay produced this movie so the 2 problems I had were acting and production overall 8.4/10 Full Review A Google User August 21, 2014 Freddie sucked! Getting sick of remakes. I love the 80's slasher movies, but this one was bad this guy didn't do Robert Englund justice. It was bad, avoid like the plague!

Full Review Axel Robertson February 7, 2015 Excellent First time that Freddy is actually scary and not a clown like the latest Englund performances. Freddy looks like a real burn victim not a guy with some jello on his face. Freddy is finally revealed to be a child molestor. We learn a lot about Freddy's past in this one. Everything about this movie, except for Rooney Mara's dull performance, is awesome. F**k haters Full Review Corben Heaton December 19, 2015 A Nightmare On Elm St (2010) remake. Jesse, Quention,Nancy,and Freddy are awesome while new nightmares acure!!! Sad that Robert England didnt play Freddy Krueger in the (2010) A nightmare Full Review Damone Sims November 2, 2014 I enjoyed it While the movie wasn't perfect, I have to give it some credit. Replacing the comedic, campy take Robert Englund showed us, Jackie Earle Haley's adaptation of Freddy gave us the look and feel the original franchise sorely needed. A dark, twisted child murderer on a path a revenge who will forever be known as Freddy Kruger.

Full Review Spheneh Bolsivic October 24, 2014 The 80's slasher movies were the best. This doesn't even begin to compare. I laughed while watching this crap.

Full Review Joe Is Awesome Ultimate awesome May 26, 2015 This sucks I'm disappointed Care about how many people enjoyed it this one f****** sucks know what I wish Michael Bay can just f*** off yeah people Michael Bay produced this so that's what made it f****** sake no explosions but there is a fire and explosion or something I don't know anymore I can't tell from the Freddy Krueger's face I'm in the new facial scar suck I can't focus on it you know what Michael Bay I f****he is really not in he is just bring it in when you can buy his 2010 remake of The Nightmare on Ellm I'm upset Full Review Scott Dailey March 6, 2015 It was terrifying so much blood and gore this movie is one of my favorites the language is not a worry one use of the f word but that is it good for 14-16 and up it is a must see only Jackie gets the really harsh torture she gets cut in half by Freddy Kruger in her nightmare blood spills like a glass of milk that has fallen also her xboyfriend gets hurt harshly to Freddy literally sticks his arm with the knives on it through him at the time he

 is in prison And a prisoner was blamed Full Review Frank Martinez October 23, 2014 Hella of a nightmare I loved it.

At first I didn't want to watch it, I'm a die hard Robert Englund fan. But I must say Jackie Earle Haley did an amazing job portraying Freddy Kruger. More EVIL. N i wish jackie would come back to fox 26. His character on Human target was another amazing performance. Full Review skeleton clique October 16, 2015 Scary af This movie scared the shitoutta me. A little like the original but more darker. The movie was really good compared to other remakes nowadays. Friday the 13th remake was really good too but the Poltergeist one....... yeah no that one sucked Full Review Joshua Seever August 17, 2014 Stellar This is a stellar remake. Jackie Earle Haley did an amazing job as Freddy Krueger. The rest of the cast was great. My wife hated that Kellan Lutz died first. We watched the whole movie, and she had nightmares all night. Full Review George Scroggins January 27, 2015 Great Movie But... I have one complaint.

Freddy was always a "comical guy" so when I first heard about this remake I was eager to see this movie and enjoy some laughs out of the corny humor we've all enjoyed in the past, however after seeing it I was rather disappointed. Not so much in the movie itself as a whole more so the role of Freddy and how he was portrayed as being serious/dark and not funny at all. Full Review Nick Harkins June 12, 2015 U R DUMB Jackie put the horror and awesomeness back into the nightmare on elm street example take Roberts claws and Jackie's claws,witch one looks better? The 1980s Freddy was quite impresive, but Jackie took it off the charts!

He was conceived when dozens of insane inmates in a mental asylum raped his mother Amanda, a nun who was working there.

Freddy was a child murderer in real life, and became a spectral nightmare killer after his death. Beat Them at Their Own Game : Whenever Freddy's defeated, it's mainly by exceptionally lucid dreamers who can shift the reality and fabric of their dreams just as much as he can. His underestimation of this doesn't help either. Berserk Button : Only he can kill the children of Elm Street, as Jason would find out. Big Bad : Naturally. However, he was possibly subservient to the Dream Demons since they are the ones that gave him powers. Though he cuts his ties to them in the comic series Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash and becomes the Big Bad once more. Brought Down to Badass : Whenever he's pulled into the real world, he loses his Reality Warper status and Nigh-Invulnerability , but as shown when it happens in Freddy vs. Jason , he's still Made of Iron and able to put up one hell of a fight. Brought Down to Normal : At the end of Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash : Nightmare Warriors. And how so?

In the original timeline Freddy was let go after someone forget to sign the warrant, and after a Timey-Wimey Ball , an FBI agent signs the warrant, leading to Krueger's arrest and the fact he never became the Nightmare God that he once was. Card-Carrying Villain : As a hardcore sadist and demonic enforcer, he's quite frank about literally having become "the stuff nightmares are made of" and takes pride in his reign of terror throughout Springwood. Child by Rape : He was called "the bastard son of 100 maniacs". Combat Pragmatist : Yes, he will kick you in your balls. Yes, he would appear as a dead loved one or parent to kill you. Covered in Scars : Or in this case, severe third-degree burns. Creepy Child : Young Freddy is shown to have been pretty creepy himself in various flashbacks, and he loves to populate his nightmares with pale, creepy children who represent his former victims. Crusty Caretaker : Pre-death Freddy. Deadpan Snarker : One of the first slasher villains to crack jokes.

Deal with the Devil : How he got his powers; as revealed in Freddy's Dead, as he was being burned alive, he was approached by three Dream Demons, who search the world for the most evil soul and give them the power to turn dreams into reality. Before his demise, Freddy accepted their offer to "be forever," and the rest is history. Demonic Possession : A power demonstrated in Freddy's Revenge and Freddy vs. Jason. Dream Weaver : This trope is what Freddy Krueger's powers ultimately boil down to, as he can enter dreams at will and alter them to his choosing. Evil Has a Bad Sense of Humor : Freddy has a sick sense of humor, as his idea of fun is to give someone a particularly painful and creative death. He constantly makes bad jokes about his victims, usually with cheesy one-liners before their deaths or afterwards if he's feeling especially cheery. Evil Is Not a Toy : A significant plot point in Freddy vs. Jason. Trying to control Jason Voorhees was never going to end well. Evil Makes You Ugly : Justified , because he was burned to death. Evil Laugh : Because of Freddy's sadistic pleasure out of all of this.

His laugh is generally the last thing your hear. In the first he barely even has any lines, he mainly just laughs, but a very disturbing laugh, the type of laugh that haunts your dreams (ironically).. Evil Sounds Deep : In the first several films, less so in later sequels. Evil Feels Good : He's loving every moment of this. Extra Parent Conception : Freddy is called the bastard son of a hundred maniacs, assuming that isn't hyperbole. In Nightmare 5 one of the maniacs is shown to look exactly like pre-death Freddy , hinting that this is in fact his biological father. Faux Affably Evil : He usually addresses his victims in an almost friendly way. Flanderization : He was considerably more serious in the first film, but the sequels, which largely didn't involve Wes Craven, turned him into a comedic goofball. For the Evulz : He kills people simply because he 'can' kill people. The revenge thing is just a bonus. Heck, after he killed off all the children of the parents who killed him originally, he starts looking for any way he can to reach new victims because he just loves killing people THAT much.

Freudian Excuse : In Freddy's Dead, the filmmakers try to explain away his evilness by giving him a horrifically awful childhood. His mother (who was a nun) gave birth to him only after being raped repeatedly by one hundred patients at a mental asylum she worked at. His adopted father was a sleazy pimp who beat him up daily (and who Freddy later murdered with a razor blade). He was bullied by kids at school, and gave signs of being a textbook sociopath by killing the classroom hamster, for which he never was punished for or got help with. Then he shuffled through life as an adult from one low paying job to another, until he decided to express his rage at life by killing kids. Notably, he even tries and uses the Freudian Excuse to his daughter Maggie in Freddy's Dead as a means of explaining he was not evil and he was made into this way. It doesn't work . From Nobody to Nightmare : In this case, quite literally.

Ghostly Goals : Freddy started out avenging his own death, but after he succeeded, he decided to stick around and continue killing (he was, after all, a sadistic serial killer even before he died; even with his revenge complete, he probably saw no real reason to stop killing). Gods Need Prayer Badly : As revealed in Freddy vs. Jason, Freddy's power is entirely dependent on how many people know of and fear him; when the people of Springwood eradicated every trace of his existence, he was left powerless. Gone Horribly Right : In Freddy vs. Jason, he brought Jason Voorhees Back from the Dead and set him upon Springwood, knowing that he himself would be blamed for Jason's killings, which would give him enough power to escape Hell and go about haunting Springwood again. The plan works, but Freddy never anticipated that Jason would continue to intrude on his territory and steal his potential victims. Freddy: Everyone forgot! That's why they weren't afraid anymore! That's why I needed Jason to kill for me, to get them to remember! But now he just won't stop!

A God Am I : Freddy is literally a god when he's inside people's dreams, and his powers while in dreams seems virtually limitless. It's best summed up by this exchange from the first movie: Tina: Please, God! Names to Run Away from Really Fast : K Names . Never Sleep Again : It's in the rhyme about him. As in never sleep to never dream of him and die. New Powers as the Plot Demands : A running joke in the series is that Freddy's powers are pretty much limitless, as far as changing from film to film. It does make sense however. Since Freddy has effectively become the king of nightmares, his powers in the dreamscape would be virtually unlimited. On the rare occasions he manifests in the "real" world, he generally gets his ass kicked (most notably, at the end of the first film). Nice Hat : Freddy's fedora, of course. Nigh-Invulnerability : Justified , because he's dead (no body to feel pain with). Even when he's pulled into the real world, he laughs off getting impaled through the stomach and getting the crap beaten out of him by Jason Voorhees . Nightmare Dreams : Freddy's modus operandi.

Obligatory Joke : In the later movies, he always makes some kind of (usually groan inducing) ironic joke about someone's situation either just before or after he murders them. Obviously Evil : His whole appearance just screams "evil". This is actively embraced by Freddy, since he can look any way he wants to in dreams. He loves being a monster. Off on a Technicality : How he walked away from the child murders he committed after he died; depending on whether you go by the films or Freddy's Nightmares , it was either because the judge failed to properly sign the search warrant or because the arresting officer neglected to read him his Miranda rights. Omnicidal Maniac : Freddy became increasingly worse over time. He was always a sadist, but at first he pretended that he wanted revenge for his death at the hands of a lynch mob until he just dropped all pretense and continued killing when this goal was already completed. With nothing to stop him, he eventually murders every child in Springwood and drives their distraught parents to utter madness . With the entire town destroyed, he just creates another "Elm Street" in a neighbouring city and reveals that he'll never stop killing until everyone's dead.

Our Liches Are Different : Freddy is technically a sort of "astral lich". He would definitely qualify as a powerful sorcerer, and his appearance just screams "undead". Also, killing him tends to involve some rather unusual methods, most often dragging him onto our plane, and, even then, nobody has ever managed to kill him permanently. An easier parallel is that Freddy is some sort of ghost or a demon (he is in service to nightmare demons after all). Pï¿½do Hunt : In the original film and Freddy vs. Jason, it's strongly implied but not stated outright that Freddy is a pedophile in addition to being a child killer. Wes Craven originally wanted to make him one, but in the end decided not to in order not to be accused of exploiting then recent news headlines about pedophiles at day cares, et al. Playing with Fire : Despite being killed by fire and being deeply afraid of fire, Freddy has been shown to conjure up fire at will. Politically Incorrect Villain : Not only does he kill, he's also immensely sexist toward women and is strongly implied to be a pedophile as stated above (though only in the remake). Pungeon Master : This is basically Freddy's trademark.

Psycho for Hire : Freddy is implied to be this to the Dream Demons who gave him his power. Reality Warper : He was able to partly manipulate the outside world, like re-animating his bones. However, by Freddy's Dead, he had gotten so powerful that he was able to erase Springwood parents' memories and make other adults into mindless people who go about their daily lives if there were kids there. In Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash, he came across the Necronomicon ex Mortis and used its spells to become even more powerful in the real world. Red Eyes, Take Warning : His eyes are red in Freddy's Revenge. Resurrective Immortality : Freddy Krueger is killed several times by the heroes, but he returns each time. As Freddy himself put it in the fourth film ï¿½ " I. AM. ETERNAL! " In the sixth film he says "In dreams. I. Am. FOREVER!" The dream demons who are the source of his powers promised him that he would indefinately resurrect no matter what anyone does to him. Roaring Rampage of Revenge : His initial motive throughout the first three films, and the early part of the fourth.

See Sins of Our Fathers below for more details. Rubber Man : Stretching limbs are one of many of Freddy's powers. Sadist : A key part of his character: he murderous psychopath and loves every minute of it. Self-Fulfilling Prophecy : His powers are greatly heightened by the fear of his victims. Their fear that he is an unstoppable nightmare monster causes him to be an unstoppable nightmare monster. Self-Made Orphan : He killed his foster father when he was young. Fate of his foster mother is unknown. His murders also caused his own mom to kill herself, if this was Freddy's plan however, is unknown. Self-Mutilation Demonstration : One of Freddy's freakier habits is to show off his invulnerability by wounding himself: cutting off fingers, slashing open his side, peeling off his own scalp, etc. In this case, it's as much to squick out his victims as to demonstrate the futility of trying to hurt him. Serial Killer : He was one both in life (as the Springwood Slasher) and the afterlife.

Shapeshifter Default Form : He's an accomplished shapeshifter in the dream world, regularly appearing as other people, mechanical devices, and a host of other forms. While he can look however he wants, as a nightmare ghost he prefers to appear as his post-death burnt self, probably to scare his victims. His true form in the real world are his skeletal remains, but it remains to be seen if he even has a true spectral form. Shapeshifting Seducer : Eerily Freddy uses this tactic on Joey in Dream Warriors by disguising himself as a hot nurse, showing that he's an equal opportunity deviant. Sinister Scraping Sound : Freddy with his claw on most anything. The Dreaded : While not being afraid of him isn't enough to stop him entirely, he relies on the masses' fear and belief in him to keep his powers strong. Without this, he's significantly weaker. Sins of Our Fathers : His killing sprees throughout the first three films, and the early part of the fourth, is to kill the children of the lynch mob who originally burned him alive. After killing Kristen Parker in The Dream Master, he's only in it For the Evulz from that point onwards.

The Sociopath : For sure, to Freddy, humans are just his playthings. Super Mode : "Super Freddy" from The Dream Child, which he conjures up to mock the comic book fan Mark. Unperson : After it became known that Freddy grows more powerful based on how much he is feared and by how many people know of him, the town of Springwood tried to erase all knowledge of his existence and his murder spree to spare their children. Those who had any knowledge of Freddy were institutionalized and put on Hypnocil. It worked so well that Freddy brought Jason back to stir things up. Villain Ball : Rather than kill his victims outright, he prefers to draw out their torment for his own amusement, overconfident in their inability to effectively fight back. This has given many of his victims a chance to escape or find the means to defeat him, and Jason stole one of his kills because of this. A notable aversion: because he recognized Nancy as a threat since his defeat in the original movie, in Dream Warriors, he simply stabs her in lieu of his usual elaborate kill sequences. Villainous Valour : During Freddy vs.

Jason , Freddy puts up a good fight against the superstrong Jason Voorhees even when he's technically just a weak, disfigured, physical ghost thing when not in the Dream World. Voice Changeling : One of Freddy's many powers, as he demonstrates at one point in Freddy's Dead. Troll : He constantly makes bad jokes about his victims, usually with cheesy one-liners. Voluntary Shapeshifter : Via his dream powers. One of the things he enjoys doing most to torment his victims is pretending to be someone close to them so he can scar them emotionally before going in for the kill. Was Once a Man : Once a human serial killer, he turned into something resembling a nightmare ghost/demon after his death. Big Good : In the comics. Brutal Honesty : She has no qualms about talking back to her parents or her boyfriend about someone trying to kill her, even throwing in a few curse words for good measure. However, she's more amicable when she's not constantly hounded by Freddy. Final Girl : The first in the series.

Hysterical Woman : She's treated as such in the first movie by all the adults, and she herself almost believes it when Freddy doesn't immediately show up to play in what she thought was the real world. Of course, since it's horror movie, she's Properly Paranoid . Skunk Stripe : She gets one in the first movie, after pulling Freddy's hat out of the dream and it stays with her.
