Product Description

Product Description

Final episode in the popular slasher series. Alice Johnson (Lisa Wilcox), the Dream Master from the previous 'Nightmare on Elm Street' film, is expecting a baby. Unfortunately for her, the meddlesome Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund) finds out about this and begins to control the foetus's dreams, hoping that the birth will be his means of returning to the land of the living. So once again the old Dream Master must set to work, taking the battle to Krueger one final time.

From Amazon.co.uk

The Nightmare on Elm Street series continues to run out of steam, with director Stephen Hopkins (Lost in Space ) applying something approaching brilliance to a script (partly by horror novelists John Skipp and Craig Spector) that falls apart under the light. Among the impressive horror-weird sequences include a boy being absorbed by a motorbike or the characters straying into a superhero comic, but it still has boring Freddy wisecracks, a parade of indistinguishable and annoying teenage cannon fodder, an incomprehensible premise about the dreams of an unborn baby and lots of pompous would-be scariness to drag it down into the morass. Lisa Wilcox returns, but there's no particular reason to be excited about that. -- Kim Newman

4.0 out of 5 starsA good movie that should have been a great movie
By Daniel Jolley HALL OF FAMETOP 500 REVIEWER on 21 Feb. 2004
Format: DVD
I consider A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child a fairly impressive and certainly an important entry in the series, although I admit that it does have a few problems. Somewhat ironically, the success of the Elm Street franchise and Freddy in particular becomes a negative rather than a positive this time around. This was the second film in a row to be made without Wes Craven's guidance, and I think the filmmakers misinterpreted to some degree the secret of Freddy's success; they overplayed their hand by putting too much emphasis on new special effects tricks and Freddy witticisms instead of just letting Freddy be Freddy. In effect, our beloved anti-hero becomes a caricature of himself, and I as a viewer detect a barrier of some sort between myself and Freddy that stands in the way of my complete enjoyment of what I am watching. Had this fifth Elm Street film been forced to make do with a lower budget, it could have been something really impressive. The basic premise of the film is very sound and effective, and a couple of the killing motifs also bear traces of semi-brilliance, but the over-emphasis on special effects works against the filmmakers here.
Alice Johnson (Lisa Wilcox), the Dream Master of the fourth film, has picked up the pieces of her life and moved beyond her experiences with Freddy. She and Dan (Danny Hassel) are now a couple, and she and her new friends are all graduating from high school. Life is just great until she starts having disturbing dreams once again. In these dreams she and the audience actually witness a recreation of the stories (chronicled in the third film) of Freddy's conception and birth. We see Amanda trapped inside the tower with a hundred dangerous lunatics, then witness the birth of Amanda's child - it's an unusual delivery, to say the least.Read more ›

1.0 out of 5 starsThe Worst Of The Nightmares So Far
By John Picard on 4 Aug. 2014
Format: DVD
This is definitely the worst nightmare film so far in the series. The plot is stupid, the characters aren't very interesting, it's not funny or scary and it is confusing to the point of making no sense at all. Robert Englund who played Freddy Kreueger has stated that this is his least favourite film in the franchise and I can clearly see why. His acting was good in the film as he always is, but even he could not make up for it as the plot surrounding the character was so bad.

I am disappointed as I loved the original, "Freddy's Revenge" was very good, "Dream Warriors" was good and "Dream Master" was great. "The Dream Child" was a let-down, a very poor film.

3.0 out of 5 starsKids... always a disappointment.
By Spike Owen TOP 500 REVIEWER on 12 Oct. 2015
Format: DVD
* This review contains an implied spoiler in last paragraph *

By the time A Nightmare on Elm Street had rolled around to this, part five, Freddy Krueger had long stopped being a scary bogeyman. He was now a figure of fun, a purveyor of one line quips, while the makers were desperately trying to come up with new ideas in which to have the pizza faced Krueger still exist, and thus have more films for him to be in...

Here we are sold the idea that a foetus can dream, so not only do we get a horror staple of sex being bad for you, but it lets Freddy (Robert Englund) back in the fold - in this another garbled screenplay. Cue friends of the pregnant Alice Johnson (Lisa Wilcox) being stalked and offed by the old stinky green and red jumper killer.

It's all very frenetic and cartoonish, with gore replacing scares. There's a little ingenuity with some of the kills, such as a comic book section that has a good thought process, but once the laughable finale arrives - cuz - like - love conquers all - then you may be digging out parts 1 & 3 to remind yourself how good this series used to be. 5/10

2.0 out of 5 starsLethargic entry not without merit but the series was in trouble by now
By Colonel Decker on 18 Nov. 2014
Format: DVD
Difficult 5th film in the franchise. The studio wanted a darker Freddy so that's what we got. The problem is having Freddy cracking his jokes for years beforehand made Freddy unscary and this just doesn't work. The acting is very borderline bad, fatal for a franchise that was used to going to No.1. in the charts. The FX is done well as you would expect but the ideas are running thin here. They tried but everyone involved looks tired, as if they just needed a break at this point. So did horror which effectively died the year this was released in 1989, and took almost a decade to re-invent itself.

3.0 out of 5 starsWake me up when it's over
By Captain Pugwash on 10 April 2009
Format: DVD
After the pretty solid third and fourth installments of the Elm Street franchise, this was a sequel too far. By 1989 the special effects were impressive but overused; this is like a Hollywood popcorn blockbuster that is all bang crash boom and little heart. By this time the production team have resorted to hanging a film around several explosive set pieces and the initial premise for the franchise is lost among the morass. As for the screenplay: Freddy returns through the dreams of an unborn child, it is frankly risible. I recommend watching parts 1, 3, and 4 and forgetting the rest.

3.0 out of 5 starsGetting lamer...
By Lee09 on 27 July 2015
Format: DVD
Lame watered down sequel, the character of Freddie is taken to stupid places and his make up is starting to look a bit cheap plus the ending feels like we've been there before. The new characters are 1 dimensional and the actors playing them are too old for the role. In this film Freddie becomes more wacky, at one point dressing up as a chef, at another point riding round on a skateboard. On the plus side, the lighting in this film was good, Lisa was a strong memorable character and her story carried quiet a lot of the film. The themes of motherhood and life were touching but maybe not right for the slasher genera. The character of Mark was too camp and I find it jarring to see a man who's nearly 30 pretending to be a stroppy teenager. .

The movie suffered from censorship as well as an unfinished script where scenes were sometimes being rewritten the day before they were supposed to be shot, I think some of this tells in the final product. A shame because it had some potential.
