Nightmare On Elm Street Series...

[Viddy]

I got the first two and getting the rest in the next two weekends.

I loved the original. Very creepy, and very well made. 9/10

The sequel wasnt as scary, but still thrilling... 8/10

I think they're all great. I like the first one, and Freddy's Dead - The Final Nightmare. There were some awesome dream sequences in FD, good comedy, good kills, good storyline. I loved it.

Yah. You're gonna waste money AND miss out on great packaging by getting them all individually instead of buying the $45 boxset

watched the first the other day... that movie defines horror in so many aspects, because its kind of like halloween, a little. but combines supernatural demonic stuff in it, so its.. good.

maybe not *demonic*



but did anyone else think that the ending to the 1st was kind of stupid, with the car randomly driving away and stuff.

I remember how freddy would freak me out with the whole dream thing. and the kids singing that song CREEPY

I really like the first movie, despite its gloss it did define the genre in the mid 80s and wasn't as jokey as some of the sequals or films like 'The Lost Boys' or 'Return of the Living Dead'. The second NOES had a famously homo-erotic take on the series, not something mainstream horror is known for. What do you think of this, I found it interesting for it to be a young man who was the objest of maniacal persecution (various scenes of him undressed in the same way women are seen taking showers etc before their doom) but, being gay, I might be a little biased.

Well Nightmare on elmstreet is definitly one of my favourites, they did a good job on freddys face and his hand is cool too. I love it when a good movie ends up with 7 or 8 of them, it's just the whole dream thing that makes it a good movie thou some weird things happen like the boy being dragged INTO his bed and then spat out against the ceiling such things are just impossible but that makes the movie like mostly you don't know if a person is dreaming or not, but like the movies said, Freddy evolves too, he's supposed to be a "dreammaster" but not long cause in the end of the series he's walking in the real world?
Or am I just wrong hehe , been years since I've seen the series thou, this is the only thing I remember from it.

the 1st one was great .. it had a nightmarish quality that was extremely appropriate (unable to run up the stairs ..etc)

the rest of the series turned into a series of comedies ..
freddy being the wise cracking anti-hero.

everything worked in the 1st movie but lost its effectiveness as the series ran on ..
