My title doesn't really do this film justice as it is clever and original but just not as cutting or as darkly funny as Craven's smash hit 'Scream'. Freddy returns via a film that's being made about him, and he subsequently terrorises Heather Langenkamp (star of the original 1984 film) and her family; channelling through her young son Dylan. The movie is arguably the most original in the 'Elm Street' series and Freddy even has a new state of the art slasher glove! After Part 6 of the original franchise supposedly killed Kruger off for good, this is a welcome return and a fresh take on an old idea.

Wes Craven was reportedly miffed at New Line Cinema for trashing his vision with Nightmare 2 so he went back to Robert Shaye with the great ideas that became Nightmare 3. Sadly the plot was lost again, Freddy became less mysterious and sinister and more the camp killer uncle. Fan though I am of 1,3,4 & 7 the others lost it. In Freddy's Dead Krueger didnt put up much of a fight where there were so much room for intense dream sequences and frightening effects New Line dished out a rushed answer to there problems. 1994 came the release of this Wes Craven's New Nightmare, here Wes would prove that he is and always will be the only one to create the best Freddy film using his original vision. This is a truly inventive film with great acting and a sinister Krueger, though the body count trend in the sequels is quashed here as there really isnt an excessive body count. Had New Line used the makeup and look for Freddy in this film FVJ would have been so much better.

whatever you do, make sure you buy this version of the film insteafd of the carlton relase of it! for starters, this has features!
the film features freddy making his way into the real world and attacking the cast of the orginal film.
heather's son in this film is the scariest thing about this film! but freddy does look bad ass!
no johnny depp, reasons being that, wes didnt ask him cause he was a big actor now and wouldn't want to do it. when he finished the film he got a phone call from depp asking why he wasn't in the film!
overall id say this is good. nice movie, nice ending and better than freddy's dead. but for the love of jason, make sure you buy this version!
