a film that brought the Freddy mythos to a new level of reality and set the stage for his biggest success to date, Scream.

A good break-away from the rest of the "Nightmare" series. Good as a bookend of to the series and also as a stand alone film. Check it out. 7/10

Highly unimpressive sequel is a real letdown for fans. It's got an innovative idea, but it has no guts.

However, even if New Nightmare gets tired of its own postmodern premise by its end, it does scores some strong points for exploring some of childhood's most normal, yet irrational, fears. 51/100

Amazing, over-the-top climax to the entire Nightmare on Elm Street series... It's a daring thinking man's horror movie. For Craven, it set the stage for him to direct the landmark post-modern fear flick "Scream," another social commentary horror pic.
