Amazon.co.uk Review

Wes Craven was tempted back to the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, in partnership with writers Bruce Wagner (Wild Palms) and Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption), to script this fun, action-oriented sequel directed by Chuck Russell (The Mask). Langenkamp (as the world's only teenage psychiatrist) and Saxon return, but the heroine is debuting Patricia Arquette, who has the power to pull her friends into her dreams and thus assemble an army to take on Freddy, who begins here to spout those post-death witticisms that became a trademark. A nun reveals the villain's backstory as "the bastard son of a hundred maniacs". It's full of wild images and effects, such as the sleepwalker turned into a puppet strung on his ripped-out veins, and pays homage to Ray Harryhausen with not only an animated Freddy puppet but also his evil, walking skeleton. --Kim Newman

5.0 out of 5 stars Son of a Hundred Maniacs..., 7 Oct 2003
By Michael Crane - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
I practically grew up on watching "Nightmare on Elm Street" movies. Been watching them ever since I was little. Freddy Krueger is my all-time favourite horror villain. "A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors" is probably my personal favourite in the series. It's got a great script, great concept, and it's entertaining as hell. Both chilling and funny, this is a movie to watch if you want a good time.

This particular "Nightmare on Elm Street" has a rather ingenious storyline; possibly the most creative in the series. The "survivors" of Elm Street are slowly falling victim to Krueger's violent rampage one by one (although the deaths are considered "suicides" by the doctors). Only a few remain alive in a psychiatric ward and they all have similar nightmares. They all dream of a man who is horribly scarred and wears a glove with razor blades for fingers. And they know that he is out to get them. However, these aren't your typical survivors. They have special powers and gifts in their dream world that makes them unique and powerful. These gifts and powers may be the only thing that can stop Freddy once and for all, before he murders each and every one of them.

This one was actually co-written by Wes Craven, the man behind the original "Nightmare on Elm Street." It really shows because this one isn't as funny as the later ones. It's more creepy and scary, too. The movie was very well-directed and written. The actors were great and each of them really made the movie work. And of course, you have to give credit to Robert Englund, who really shines as Freddy. There is no way anybody else could play the part. Englund practically made the role his own.

The DVD doesn't have much to offer, but it does look and sound great. No more having to deal with the mono VHS copy that was recorded in "extended play." The picture is crystal clear, and even a little TOO clear at parts. The new Dolby Digital mix is also really good. You do have the option to listen to it in mono, which is the original theatrical mix. Other than that, no eye-popping extras.

"A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors" is a Freddy movie to remember. Not only is it scary and even funny at times, but it's also very creative and impressive. I'm a fan of all the Freddy flicks, but this one is probably my favourite of them all. This is something recommended for ALL horror-buffs. Then again, all of you horror-buffs have already seen it, now haven't you? Well, then to the rest of you... check it out when you can!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wash your face in my sink, 4 April 2009
By Barney McGrew "Charlie" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Arguably the best in the Elm Street series, Dream Warriors even inspired a band to name themselves after it! More inventive and better thought out than parts 4 and 5, and just better than the dire part 2; the third installment benefits from some impressive special effects and restrained direction; not to mention an energetic cast and early appearances from modern movie heavyweights Laurence 'Larry' Fishburne and Patricia Arquette (part of that last sentence may be erroneous). Overall an atmospheric and eerie installment in the franchise and well worth seeing.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best nightmare!!!!!!, 11 May 2004
By A Customer
I bought the dvd box set cheap a two years ago and this has to be the stand out title! There are many resons to buy this dvd alone, although it is probably better to purchase the box set (seeing as this stand-alone dvd is half the price of the box set!!!!).

1. Big stars - Laurence Fishburne and Patricia Arquette!!
2. The soundtrack - the Dokken track is a pure 80's classic!
3. Excellent death scenes - 'Welcome to prime-time bitch!'
4. A look into Freddy's past.
5. The 'I can be a supoerhero in my dreams!' end team battle against Freddy is just too cheesy to miss!

There you go.... a star for each of those points. Now buy it, turn off the lights and enjoy!
