That is one of my favorite films from the eighties, as corny as it is. It is actually is one of the first ones I watched as a young child (7 or 8) back then. My father was a huge Craven fan, so this was my introduction to his catalog of films, leading me into A Nightmare on Elm Street a couple of years later. I definitely have a soft spot for this flick.
Follow up to my previous reply: this is a wonderful, schlocky film, and goofy as fuck. That being said, I can't help but think this could actually be a crazy reboot with a more serious tone. You gotta love it.
Love Wes Craven, legendary horror director. Here's my top 5 1. Nightmare on Elm Street 2. Scream 3. People Under The Stairs 4. Hills Have Eyes 5. Wes Cravens New Nightmare
Another positive for Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (at least for me) is the fact it’s the only movie in the franchise where Freddy‘a glove isn’t made of metal and he has 5 knives instead of his traditional 4. Love the channel, Cody!
I’m gonna be brutally honest, Wes Cravens New Nightmare is one of the most ambitious, amazing horror movies of its time. Period. New Nightmare and Nightmare are equals, and bookend one another impressively. Brilliant fucking movie
I’m with you. Think I saw it for the first time when I was like 10 and loved it since. New Nightmare is incredibly underrated, especially for what it is. Which is basically the patient zero for Scream.
@@skyofthelivingdead absolutely. It’s the ultimate slow burn of the Nightmare Films but also great that the demonic entity of Freddy just appears here and there until he is fully revealed at the end of the 2nd act. It’s impressive cause since watching it in 96(?) it’s still in my top 10 horror flicks
@@Quest4Horror this came out wayyyy before creepers. And the makeup is great on England. If you understand the movie it’s not even Krueger, it’s a demonic entity in the form of Krueger, and not the actor playing Krueger, if that makes sense lol
The best thing about Last House On The Left is that Wes Craven and Sean Cunningham made a film together. Imagine if they had reunited and did Freddy Vs. Jason together.
"Balls out crazy" is the perfect way to describe the People Under the Stairs. I love it. The "children" were some of the scariest things ever when I was a kid and totally unexpected compared to the rest of the movie. It was so confusing to me as a child to laugh and be completely terrified at the same time.
Oh how I miss Wes craven! Wes cravens new nightmare is of my all time favorite movies ever made. It was a legacy sequel before they were popular. Honestly Halloween H20 took a lot from new nightmare. Both of the movies revolve around the actress from the first film to protect their son and have one final battle with their arch nemesis. It’s so strange how not many people notice how similar these movies were.
Completely agree about Scream 4. Besides from the original, the fourth instalment is my other favourite. Don't understand the hate, the casting especially was amazing 😭
Cody, thank you for all of this amazing content! I'm still working my way through your many videos and every single one is entertaining. You deliver your views in a thoughtful and funny manner. Your channel is one of the very best things on TH-cam!! Cheers, sir!!
Awwwwww yeah this has been a long time coming man. Well done. Any plans for a next director to do this with? John Carpenter, George Romero, Dario Argento, Alfred Hitchcock, and Mario Bava would be good ones. I know Bava and Hitchcock are well before your time but they're awesome.
If he does Bava & Argento I guess there hardly would be any movie with a positive rating. If you don’t already know, Italian horror doesn’t do anything for Cody!
@@dertodesking8379 I adore me some Bava and especially Argento but I completely understand why those films aren’t loved by everybody. Even though as a huge fan of Argento Giallo and Dracula 3D are garbage with very little redeeming things about em.
@@aydenvavra2153 Yeah Sleepless was his last good movie imo. I also love Italian horror - Argento, Bava, Fulci, Martino, Soavi… But it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, absolutely!
Hey Cody! I would love to see you do a massive carpenter review series, but that’s an obvious one. Another one I would want you to maybe consider is a Martin Scorsese review series. Talk about movies from Taxi Driver, Raging Bull to Goodfellas and The Departed. That would be a cool one to see from you. I really like how you review movies. Peace Dude!
This has been one of your best review series in my opinion. Do you think that you will ever review his other movies he produced(like wishmaster), or his made for TV movies?
I actually came here to see where you would place The People Under the Stairs. Maybe it’s nostalgia for most of us who have fondness for this film. Part of it for me is feeling for those abused kids. If this movie wasn’t so entertaining and campy, it really would be very disturbing. It also had a lot of heart. Anyway, I really appreciated that you tried to give this movie many chances.
I know it is not horror but i have always thought Red Eye was such an underrated Craven gem. He definitely will be missed. Not everything he made was great but he always had a unique and interesting vision.
I haven't seen every Wes Craven film but the ones I've seen are: 13. Shocker 12. People Under the Stairs 11. Vampire in Brooklyn 10. Last House on the Left 9. Hills Have Eyes 8. Scream 3 7. Wes Craven's New Nightmare 6. Scre4m 5. Red Eye 4. Scream 2 3. Serpent and the Rainbow 2 of some of the most iconic horror films ever 2. Scream 1996 1. Nightmare on Elm Street 1984
This is one of my favorite review videos of yours. I love the channel and content alot. My ranking of just the ones I've seen. 1. A nightmare on elm street. Favorite horror movie, villain and final girl ever. 2. Scream. 3. Scream 2 4. My soul to take. I understand why people dislike it but really enjoy it alot 5. The serpent and the rainbow 6. Scream 3 7. A new nightmare 8. Red eye 9. Deadly friend 10. People under the stairs 11. Scream 4 12. Shocker 13. The Hills have eyes 14. The last house on the left
Honestly over time I feel The Serpent and the Rainbow has leaped past other Craven films for me. At the moment it's still my favourite of his by a margin. Not a fan of Scream 4 but if I'm being frank I kinda lost my love for the franchise after Scream 2; first two I enjoyed, I've typically got diminishing returns on anything after so I can leave the rest of the films and be perfectly content with the first two. And can't fault your #1, Krueger at his most menacing. Still my favourite ANOES film by an absolute landslide. Awesome ranking! 👌 *I know this is a long shot but I'd love to see you rank Hitchcock's filmography just because there's so many layers/areas to explore with what he did.
well he's only directed 7 feature films and every one of them is great.. so he is 7 for 7 in my opinion in feature filmmaking... with Avatar 2 up next..
Loved the video and this whole series! I would love to see you review all the Sam Raimi films (aside from the evil dead and spiderman trilogies, since you already did those) and then a ranking. I think it would be fitting too since doctor strange is about to come out, and it's the first Raimi film we've gotten in a while!
I love Vampire in Brooklyn. It’s definitely on my top Craven’s films. You’re definitely not on the minority. It’s a fun classic. Eddie Murphy did pretty good. Angela Bassett is amazing. It’s good fun.
Great ranking Cody! Only seen about half of them but was cool to hear about the ones I haven't checked out🙂 Since you've now done Craven and you've done Gunn, I think it would be sweet to see a Spielberg ranking. So any great films but which one wins?!😆
My personal ranking is: 20.Hills have eyes 2 (haven't seen) 19. Swamp thing (unwatchable) 18.Deadly blessings (forgetable) 17.cursed (release the craven cut) 16. Last house on the left 15. My soul to take (disappointing) 14. Vampire in Brooklyn (should be better) 13. Deadly friend (guilty pleasure) 12.Hills have eyes (good but dated) 11.Scream 3 (passable) 10.Shocker (entertaining) 9. Music of the heart (solid) 8.Scream 4 (good) 7. New nightmare (fantastic) 6.Serpent on rainbow (underated) 5. Red eye (excellent) 4. Scream 2 (top 5 horror sequels) 3.People under the stairs (great) 2.Scream (90s masterpiece) 1.Nightmare on elm Street (80s masterpiece)
My dream horror movie would be in the same vein of "New Nightmare" .... Have the final girls from Heather(Nightmare on Elm Street),Neve ( Scream), Wilcox (Nightmare 4 and 5),Ashley Laurence ( Hellraiser 1 and 2),Adrienne King Friday 1 and Amy Steel ( Friday 2) and guest spots from Thom Mathews ( Friday 6),John D. LeMay ( Jason Goes to Hell),Miko Hughes ( New Nightmare) and other guest spots... Where they are playing themselves and in the vein of New Nightmare , Demons have taken the form of the killers of the franchises... They are now stalking the actors trying to defeat them in real life more as a game for them but want to defeat them and want them to enter a world where they become the characters they play in the movies .... Heather would be the leader because she went through it before with the "Demon Freddy" from New Nightmare.... Have Kane,Bradley and Englund play the roles and have cameos of a Demon that looks like Tony Todd's Candyman heck even Warwick Davis ( Leprechaun) makes a cameo.. Somewhere in the storyline some the demons fight themselves.... The big kicker would be Ashley Lawrence (Hellraiser 1 and 2),Neve and Lisa Wilcox would be the ones who lives after the rest sacrificed themselves to help save the day... Just my way of thinkin '
Serpent in the Rainbow sounds intriguing I will have to check it out and Scream 2 is my favorite Scream movies. This was a good ranking video of Wes Craven's films. Great job Cody!
Love your rankings and channel. I think it got better when you put more time in videos. Your Alien and Predator rankings for example are only 13 minutes, that needs a reboot😂
Yeah I have seen part two when it came out. And the killer in shocker was also director skinner in the x files. The last house on the left was a true story. The serpent and the rainbow is also a true story.
Yup Nightmare is my number one as well. I can see why Wes didn't want a sequel. It works by itself. The Concept in it's original form is incredibly creepy and metaphorical.
I would like to see you do a John Carpenter review series (I know "SHOCKING", really). With that said, confession time. I would switch 2 and 1 if this were my list. I have always wanted to like the original "A Nightmare on Elm Street". I understand the legacy and there's nothing I can do to take that away. With that said, I like a horror movie to end where the evil is either defeated and/or escapes, or where it's left ambiguous like in movies like The Shinning or The Thing. Having to watch Nancy go on this journey to where she defeats this all-powerful slasher in Freddy Kruger ONLY for the ending to pull the rug out from under me like that has always kept me at arm's length from truly enjoying it. Still a good Slasher, defiantly a good Wes Craven film, just wish I could share in that love.
My favorites from him are The Hills Have Eyes, Wes Cravens New Nightmare and probably Scream 4. I really love a lot of them about the same but those are the ones that I have the most fun with recently.
Last House on the Left (1972) and Deadly Friend (1986) are Masterpieces. If there was that famous lonely Island these 2 Movies belonged there. They tell and touch so much. His last acceptable Film is Shocker. And as the times declined equivalently the Movies startet to do the same beginning in the 90s in what they told and showed.
The People Under the Stairs was way better than Vampire In Brooklyn. Vampire In Brooklyn couldn’t decide if it wanted to be a horror movie or comedy film it was stuck between 2 genre’s. The People Under The Stairs was straight up horror with political commentary mixed in.
I think scream is his masterpiece.nightmare on elm streets final act where Freddy is turn into a home alone villain falling into traps loses me every time.and the scene her mom gets pulled in through the door I hate.
Wes Craven has a very inconsistent filmography, but when he hits, he REALLY hits! Doing John Carpenter would be interesting. It is generally agreed that, at the start of the 90s, Carpenter was taken by aliens, and left us with an imposter posing as John Carpenter!
The original Nightmare on elm street is always going to be my favorite of the series. Even though the first four are equally good, yeah I love Dream Master, sue me. But the first one to me is still the scariest Freddy has been because the way Craven shot him. You rarely see him, he's mostly hidden in shadows and he's more looming in presence whereas he becomes the star in the sequels. Its nearly a perfect movie, aside from the last two minutes..still a four and half star from me. As for Directors catalogue's, I'd say take a chance on a classic horror director: William Castle.
Btw i agree with your thoughts on Last House On The Left. I watched it about 20 years ago, i thought it was good, but certainly not one i plan to ever re-watch.
I love this. Yes, I already knew that your top #1 was Nightmare on elm street. That is my ultimate favorite. Reason why I subscribed to you eons ago. and still the many reason why I respect and appreciate your channel. Thank you for your honest feedback.
I would love to see you and the autopstream gang gang do a ranking of Craven and Carpenter films in a joint ranking. Maybe even agree on 31 to rank for a 31 on 31. What ranking could be better than that ?
Top 10 1- Nightmare on elm Street 10/10 2- Scream 10/10 3- Wes Craven new nightmare 10/10 4- Scream 2 9.2/10 5- Scream 4 9/10 6- Scream 3 9/10 7- The people under the stairs 9/10 8- Red Eye 8.6/10 9- Serpent of the rainbow 8.6/10 10- Last house on the left 8.6/10

Shocker is one that starts out really neat and becomes a cartoon halfway through lol. Like this ranking keep it up Cody
Been a great set of reviews man , loved it 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
When I don’t know what to watch. I just watch Cody’s reviews.
Wes Craven would be very proud of you

I know it is not horror but i have always thought Red Eye was such an underrated Craven gem. He definitely will be missed. Not everything he made was great but he always had a unique and interesting vision.
Great review as always my boi Cody easily one of my top horror movie channels
A nightmare on elm street is the goat of horror films. It’s so good. The musical score is 10/10 too so eerie
I haven't seen every Wes Craven film but the ones I've seen are:
13. Shocker
12. People Under the Stairs
11. Vampire in Brooklyn
10. Last House on the Left
9. Hills Have Eyes

One good thing about 2020 when new movie releases came to a bit of a standstill was i got to see Elm Street 1984 on the big screen
On most of these, especially number one, I 100% agree with you! Freddy fanatic for life!
I love the serpent in the rainbow. I like Bill Pullman and I love how they bring back the zombie from before they were flesh eaters.
Honestly over time I feel The Serpent and the Rainbow has leaped past other Craven films for me. At the moment it's still my favourite of his by a margin. Not a fan of Scream 4 but if I'm being frank I kinda lost my love for the franchise after Scream 2; first two I enjoyed, I've typically got diminishing returns on anything after so I can leave the rest of the films and be perfectly content with the first two.
And can't fault your #1, Krueger at his most menacing. Still my favourite ANOES film by an absolute landslide. Awesome ranking! 👌
*I know this is a long shot but I'd love to see you rank Hitchcock's filmography just because there's so many layers/areas to explore with what he did.
I agree with you about the scream franchise. I would love if cody did a Hitchcock movie ranking.
Director movie list I want is James Cameron
well he's only directed 7 feature films and every one of them is
great.. so he is 7 for 7 in my opinion in feature filmmaking...
with Avatar 2 up next..
Loved the video and this whole series! I would love to see you review all the Sam Raimi films (aside from the evil dead and spiderman trilogies, since you already did those) and then a ranking. I think it would be fitting too since doctor strange is about to come out, and it's the first Raimi film we've gotten in a while!
I loved deadly friend especially the basketball scene 😂
I love Vampire in Brooklyn. It’s definitely on my top Craven’s films. You’re definitely not on the minority. It’s a fun classic. Eddie Murphy did pretty good. Angela Bassett is amazing. It’s good fun.
The fact that u don’t like the people under the stairs is crazy
My guy is almost at 80k. That’s crazy. New camera looks dope as well.
Red eye I felt was always underrated as a great thriller
Would 100% be interested in a David Cronenberg filmography review, especially with his new movie coming out soon
Great ranking Cody! Only seen about half of them but was cool to hear about the ones I haven't checked out🙂
Since you've now done Craven and you've done Gunn, I think it would be sweet to see a Spielberg ranking.
So any great films but which one wins?!😆
I'm proud of ya keep up the good work!
My personal ranking is:
20.Hills have eyes 2 (haven't seen)
19. Swamp thing (unwatchable)
18.Deadly blessings (forgetable)
17.cursed (release the craven cut)
16. Last house on the left
15. My soul to take (disappointing)
14. Vampire in Brooklyn (should be better)
13. Deadly friend (guilty pleasure)
12.Hills have eyes (good but dated)
11.Scream 3 (passable)
10.Shocker (entertaining)
9. Music of the heart (solid)
8.Scream 4 (good)
7. New nightmare (fantastic)
6.Serpent on rainbow (underated)
5. Red eye (excellent)
4. Scream 2 (top 5 horror sequels)
3.People under the stairs (great)
2.Scream (90s masterpiece)
1.Nightmare on elm Street (80s masterpiece)
Deadly Friend sucks!
Love your rankings. Shocker was one of my childhood movies so it's higher on my list. It's very wacky.
1. Elm Street
2. Scream
3. People Under The Stairs
4. Hills Have Eyes
5. Last House on the Left
My true top 5 Craven. Rest in Peace, legend.
Great list. Only difference I really have is I like shocker and ppl under the stairs a bit more.

Having to watch Nancy go on this journey to where she defeats this all-powerful slasher in Freddy Kruger ONLY for the ending to pull the rug out from under me like that has always kept me at arm's length from truly enjoying it. Still a good Slasher, defiantly a good Wes Craven film, just wish I could share in that love.
I totally agree with you on people under the stairs! I probably would've put it lower
Great channel idk why I’m binging this
My favorites from him are The Hills Have Eyes, Wes Cravens New Nightmare and probably Scream 4. I really love a lot of them about the same but those are the ones that I have the most fun with recently.
Last House on the Left (1972) and Deadly Friend (1986) are Masterpieces. If there was that famous lonely Island these 2 Movies belonged there. They tell and touch so much. His last acceptable Film is Shocker. And as the times declined equivalently the Movies startet to do the same beginning in the 90s in what they told and showed.
The People Under the Stairs was way better than Vampire In Brooklyn. Vampire In Brooklyn couldn’t decide if it wanted to be a horror movie or comedy film it was stuck between 2 genre’s. The People Under The Stairs was straight up horror with political commentary mixed in.
I was hoping to see Scream 3 at least at Top 10 :( I think it's way better than people give credit to it. But nonetheless, great video
I think scream is his masterpiece.nightmare on elm streets final act where Freddy is turn into a home alone villain falling into traps loses me every time.and the scene her mom gets pulled in through the door I hate.
Wow, I loved the Serpent and the Rainbow when I was a kid, but never realized it was a Wes Craven film.
Great list! I particularly love the high(ish) ranking for Deadly Friend. Can you rank Frank Henenlotter films?
Wes Craven has a very inconsistent filmography, but when he hits, he REALLY hits!
Doing John Carpenter would be interesting. It is generally agreed that, at the start of the 90s, Carpenter was taken by aliens, and left us with an imposter posing as John Carpenter!
Great list, Cody! I would love to see you rank Edgar Wright’s films, that would be interesting
Uh oh Cody watch supernatural🤘🏽 love that show love this channel.
The original Nightmare on elm street is always going to be my favorite of the series. Even though the first four are equally good, yeah I love Dream Master, sue me. But the first one to me is still the scariest Freddy has been because the way Craven shot him. You rarely see him, he's mostly hidden in shadows and he's more looming in presence whereas he becomes the star in the sequels. Its nearly a perfect movie, aside from the last two minutes..still a four and half star from me.
As for Directors catalogue's, I'd say take a chance on a classic horror director: William Castle.
I too love Scream 2 and ANOE! A review on John Carpenter's movies would be awesome!
Love this Video because Wes is my Hero.
Great vid. My top 8 are:
8 Last House On The Left
7 Scream 3
6 New Nightmare
5 Red Eye
4 Scream 4
3 Scream 2
2 A Nightmare On Elm Street
1 Scream
Btw i agree with your thoughts on Last House On The Left. I watched it about 20 years ago, i thought it was good, but certainly not one i plan to ever re-watch.
I love this. Yes, I already knew that your top #1 was Nightmare on elm street. That is my ultimate favorite. Reason why I subscribed to you eons ago. and still the many reason why I respect and appreciate your channel. Thank you for your honest feedback.
Love the ranking/lists vids man! Do David Lynch films next! I’m surprised I haven’t seen any reviews of his classics on here
I would love to see you and the autopstream gang gang do a ranking of Craven and Carpenter films in a joint ranking. Maybe even agree on 31 to rank for a 31 on 31. What ranking could be better than that ?
I think a Dario argento movie series review would be awesome cody
