bryanalejo-76217 It's a very good thing that Wes craven returned to help write the third installment in the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise. Not only an improvement from its predecessor, but also a visually stunning, inventive & frightening film with fleshed out characters that you will feel sympathy for and get behind. This movie is with a doubt one of the best films in the film series. It has the perfect balance of comedic and terrifying Freddy. Although clearly no match for the 1984 classic It's still a strong film, and arguably the best sequel when compared to it's predecessor & most of the sequels that came after it. All of the special effects are amazing and the story is original. Very few plot holes now and there but nevertheless a great entry. seven out of ten.

jackdickie SUCH A GREAT FILM, I love this film more than the first 2, it's a fantastic film about taking control of your own dreams. These Characters go from being terrified of Freddy to standing up for themselves and attacking that dirty S.O.B! Using their own powers to fight against him, However like always, Freddy finds out what hurts most and uses it against them, lurking one to her death as this girl walks over to the TV and tries to fix it when all of a sudden Freddy pops out and kills her and before the kill he states "Welcome to Prime Time bitch." Before smashing her face into the TV. It's great and I don't want to ruin anything here, so PLEASE go see this film, it's the best in the series and is one to remember. 10/10 GO SEE IT, it's a film I list as a (Must see before you die) Even if you're not a horror fan.

Bruno Andrade *THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS*i gave it a 6/10 for because i think the movie is entertaining, but what bothers me is all the religious propaganda in this kind of movies if you smoke, drink, take drugs, or try to get laid BOOM you die that is so cringe worthy, the kid on the wheel chair died on the dream because he was a wizard doing magic and i know that religious folks consider that to be demonic or something so BOOOMM he dies,than the girl that was addicted to drugs she obviously had to die, than there is the i call him the "Science Faith doctor" when the sister goes to him in the funeral of one of the kids she asks "what faith do you follow" he says "Science i suppose" than she says "Sad choice" when i first saw that it was all obvious to me that this was to promote i believe Christianity witch is the top religion in the US and of course movie makers have to put these things in horror movies to say if you do this and that you die than you go to hell, in the movie scream they even sort of parody that with the rules to survive in horror movies witch i mentioned in the beginning. SO yeah this is why this movie was disappointing to me, i just think that we are in a age were all this stuff is starting to get considered primitive.

WakenPayne I didn't really care for the original Nightmare movie. It is actually okay but for a concept that imaginative I feel as though the final product was lacking a little bit. However I have a brother who insisted that this is the best in the series mainly for the dreams being surreal and Freddy's kills made to look like suicides. Looking at this for myself? I agree. This is the best in the series. The plot is that teens are in a mental institution and each have their own different troubles sleeping. All of them are being scared in their dreams by Guess Who but he quickly finds boredom with that and things become a lot more drastic. Nancy from the first movie is in this however and tries her best to help the kids from Freddy and after talking her colleague into believing them gets Nancy's father to destroy what's left of Freddy so he can't do this anymore. This does sound like standard slasher fair and it is but there is quite a bit going for it. Robert Englund as Freddy is always fun to watch, the dreams are appropriately weird and I like the idea of fighting Freddy using the powers of their dreams. I'd say if you're interested check it out, out of what I've seen this probably is the best slasher sequel ever made.
