This was my introduction to Freddy Krueger. The "Making of" special on the VHS rental got me into studying special effects makeup. That roach sequence still gets me.
I am a true Fredhead, born in '84 & started my obsession at 5 yrs old (yeah, questionable parenting). So I just wanna say thanks for helping keep Freddy in the pop culture zeitgeist, cuz every new generation needs, no, deserves to know Robert Englund
@ehnoobsemaj7774 Thanks bro. Well I turned out relatively f'd up (neither here nor there lol) but doing alright! I thought u looked familiar... Then I realized u look like me lol... Also good to see that you're a cat lover. I've never in my life not lived w/one or more cats. My 18 yr old Tuxy girl Doodles is my life. So afraid to lose her. Anyways be well bro. We might be kindred spirits
Also it wasn't the piss that resurrected Fred, it was Kristen's continued fear of him returning. Kincaid and Joey warned her too. But her anxiety that he'd one day return, doomed them.
@@POOPGOD999 all it did was open a rift. It would've been the same if Kincaid woke up there without his dog and an earthquake happened and he resurrected.
My first Freddy movie!! I was so scared watching this, but I became addicted from the on. Meeting Robert Englund was one of the greatest days of my life.
This was always my favorite one. It has the perfect balance of humor, horror action, and special effects. Also I think Freddy looks the best make up wise in this one.
Same here, parents are so protective nowadays, but I actually think a 9 year old can see this. With parent supervision of course. Now the very first Nightmare on Elm Street, that terrified me as a kid.
To this day, this is my absolute favorite nightmare. This was the one where you gathered all your friends together because Freddy's star was on the rise and you saw some of the most amazing dream and death sequences ever lensed. Renny Harlin was on fire with this amazing film! Also it features the absolute undisputable best death of Freddy Krueger of all time
Fr and I think Freddy had the best dialogue here esp when he was taunting Kristen he didn’t use any one liners until Alice came and the final battle between Freddy and Alice was good
Freddy’s death sequence at the end of this movie, with all the souls tearing him apart from the inside, has got to be the single best one in the series.
I agree. The first one was weak. The melting bit in the second was kinda cool. I also liked the disco ball death in the third. Don't remember 5 or 7, but 6 with the CG sperm demons was HORRIBLE.
This is my personal fave nightmare. It oooozes 80s. The intro song from Tuesday knight kicks ass...plus we have drama Rama with anything...and the fat boys with ready for freddy (wasn't in the film though)...it was a little disappointing how they killed off the 3 heros so quickly...but I loved Freddy's resurrection sequence...."you shouldn't have buried me..I'm not dead". Directed by Die hard 2's renny harlin...this movie has its share of action sequences, the final battle kicks ass....I am...ETERNAL!
I love this movie now. As a kid it terrified me and for years, I had nightmares about the cockroach kill without remembering what movie it was from. It’s still my favorite Nightmare film. Others are objectively “better” films, but this one is just so wild from start to finish. Glad you all covered it.
Interesting, I saw part 3 and 4 as a kid, and it didn't really scare me. Now the very first Nightmare on Elm Street, and the first Halloween movie, had me believing that Freddy, or Michael Myers were hiding in the closet, or the shadows
I must admit I love Dream Master, its probably my number 4 in the franchise behind Nightmare 3,2,1 but its a great movie. As the nightmares got released further into the 80s i just loved the music etc that went with the films and its really nostalgic for me, great fun movie.
I might’ve been looking too deep into this, but I always took the dog thing as his resting place being “desecrated”. It was no longer hallowed ground, thus allowing him to revive himself.
@@whobitmyname His dog reminded me of a hellhound in that scene as he first pees fire from hell to get things going and then nearly attacks poor Kinkaid. That was not his Jason lol.
35 years old! Still the most fun entry in the franchise particularly when it comes to the special effects The movie is one of my favorites in the series; a rocking 80s soundtrack, a likable cast of teens, solid pacing, way more creative ways of Freddy slaughtering his victims, plus this is also the birth of Freddy using his infamous one-liners Renny Harlin makes this so much fun to watch plus Robert Englund enjoyed this as his best performance as Freddy The film takes advantage of the surrealism of the landscape of the mind, the imagination, the dreamscape, of an individual victim’s nightmare The death scene involving the cockroach transformation is so grisly and will always stick in my mind; it’s another one of those phobias that turns on the person who has it to full effect Lisa Wilcox makes for a very interesting lead too being she’s a character that’s gaining a trait every time one of her friends dies which will build her strength to face Freddy so she grows in terms of her arc too going from timid and shy to confident and active There’s also a theme of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ next to the philosophy of Aristotle of when you dream your soul walks free although Wilcox’s casting is a bit on the nose This was a rushed production and it was heavily impacted by the writers strike of ‘87 yet Renny Harlin makes for some big action set pieces in a ‘Nightmare’ film that basks in its excess being colorful, inventive, and imaginative It’s like a giant music video given this was the MTV generation ‘Dream Master’ leaves a great impression despite most franchises being so fatigued by so many fourth entries
Before even starting this video….Tyler, you’re 100% correct! Nightmare 4 RULES. It’s my personal favorite of the entire series and always has been. It was my first “new” Nightmare movie (not sure if it was the first one I saw or not, though that might be Nightmare 3). To me, this is “my” Freddy….the character was perfectly crafted as I knew him from his media blitz at the time. In fact, whenever I’d watch the first two movies, especially the original, I always felt as though Craven and Shoulder hadn’t quite gotten Freddy “right”. Obviously I know what came first, but those first movies always felt like the character was still being crafted. And that cast?!? I love all of those characters and the fact that the actors themselves are such wonderful people in real life? Perfection. I wanted to hang with those teens and still wish they were part of my friend group back in the day! And that soundtrack?!?! COME ON. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Even Until This Very Day Andras Jones Is Such A 1980's Hunk He's Very Goodlooking And Many Women And Gay Men Had A Huge Crush On Him And Reminded All Of Us Of Christian Slater Happy 45Th Anniversary A Nightmare 4 ❤😊🎉
I got to attend a screening of this flick with Lisa Wilcox and it was a fun Father's Day for me. I first saw this flick ages ago when I found the VHS in my Christmas stocking! Sure, it's not as good as the first 3 movies, but it's a fun movie and Englund clearly had fun with this one. Also this movie made me realize I like Renny Harlin movies. Favorites being Die Hard 2, The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, and Deep Blue Sea.
Despite the cringe elements, 4 is one of my favorites because of the character Alice. I loved the whole concept of how someone who is lost in her dreams would be a powerful foe for Frederick. Alice had clear elements of a Schizotypal personality disorder. StPD is not anything in the schizophrenia spectrum, it's a type of personality disorder that includes excessive daydreaming to the point of generally interfering with daily functioning. But in this case, it was Alice's superpower.
I never miss the opportunity to point this out... I'm disappointed so many Nightmare fans keep incorrectly making fun of the revival scene. "Ha ha, Freddy got resurrected by evil dog piss." Freddy was already awake and coming back (probably because Kristen kept talking about him) ... Kinkaid just saw his dog before falling asleep so the dog was in his dream... And the rest is just Freddy putting on some crazy dream theatrics, as Freddy typically does. Kinkaid didn't just have a psycho junkyard dream all by himself and then accidentally trigger Freddy's return. Basically Freddy's deal was "well, time to rise from the grave... gotta freak this guy out while I do it... I know, I'll use the dog." But no, people act like Freddy said "oh man, I'm so dead... wait, is that dog pissing flames? Perfect, just what I needed!" Come on, now.
I remember watching this movie from a hall in an apt so the adults didn't see me. It was my intro to horror movies, I'm still marked by this movie and Freddy is my all time horror icon
Hell yes! Best superhero movie of all time!! Lisa Wilcox best horror heroine & a sweet woman! Had to endure pippi lingstocking before being able to watch this back when it came out on VHS
God, I miss the days of having to watch commercials on VHS before the movie came on. You got to memorize commercials for movies as much as you memorized the actual movie.
I love this move. Hate that in recent years people have talked bad about this movie. its by far the best looking one visually with so many classic dream scenes. when alice is sucked through the movie screen into a black and white movie only to see her dead friends in the theater clapping. Even thou her brother death was lame the intro to it with him in the bathroom seein that he fell a sleep seeing his dead girl friend and the stall turn into a red elevator was cool. they must have shot that before the budget ran out
My memory fades here and there, but this just might’ve been my intro to NOES around age 4 in ‘88 or ‘89. As a kid, it was the most terrifying collection of images I had ever seen, but it was fun and vibrant lol. Since then, it’s probably the most endearing entry in the series for me.
Freddy's line "you shouldn't have buried me, I'm not dead" was a cool play on Bill Pullman's line "Don't let them bury me, I'm not dead!" From The Serpent and the Rainbow.
Tuesday Knight was so much better as Kristen that Patricia Arquette yet that’s always the first reason they can come up with to say bad about this movie. The Dream Master will always be the best elm street movie/sequel. It’s the perfect 80s slasher with a killer soundtrack. Elm Street Franchise really peaked in here.
My intro to Freddy was through the original. I was a young teenager working in our local video rental shop ( Betamax or VHS please?) in South Africa, mid 80s, and this came in one day in our new releases. I took it home that night, the VHS box still wrapped in cellophane. I like to believe I was first person to see it on home rental in our town lol. It was considered quite a shocking horror movie and had a 21 age restriction - I kid you not, good old South Africa in the 80s my friends. My fav sequel has always been 3, thanks to Arquette and that horrible 'snake' Freddy. It had an awesome cinema poster for its release in Thailand as well. Dream Master is a definite second place. By the way, I love the JoBlo videos and it was nice to put a face to a name, thanks Tyler.
How sweet! A new episode! I love this channel. Btw, this the 1st Freddy movie I watched as my introduction to the series. Yes I was born in the early 80s. My parents just wouldn't allow this type of media in our house.
Knight was sleeping with Harlin. That's how she got the part AND the opening number (that 80's song) on the soundtrack. Look it up. Pretty scandalous :)
I would love to see you cover Maniac, Them Howling (even it’s silly sequel) or American Werewolf in London. Great segment on Nightmare 4! Keep up the great work Tyler and JoBlo Team!
I'll always love part 1 best, but part 4 is my favorite sequel. Even over dream warriors. Dream Master is so much fun. The time loop scene blew my mind and the roach motel is brutal. Also I prefer Alice to either kristen.
This is CRAZY - in all theses years I never knew that was the same character as Patricia Arquette. I thought it was some "throw-away" character added. Been a couple of decades since I watched 3 and 4.
This is a fun movie probably the second most fun of the series after 3. Part 1 is still the best the series has to offer but 3 and 4 are the most fun in terms of pure entertainment. This film isn't scary because by this point Freddy was to exposed but its really entertaining and entertainment value matters to me.
I don't know, maybe because I saw this movie when I was 8 or 9 in the actual theaters, Tuesday Knight has a special place in my heart. Probably because I had a crush on her as a kid. Her, the main female vampire from Fright Night part 2, Sorsha from Willow, and the blonde from Twins. And Probably many others. 🤣
My 4th favorite elm street movie it's definitely the MTV nightmare it shot like a music video good cast good visuals Alice is my 2nd favorite elm street girl and Freddy's death is my favorite in the franchise
I loved that you used the actual scene from JoBlo horror intro, instead of just the audio, now I know why I always thought of this movie whenever a video started, just kidding of course, NOES 5 was the first Freddy movie I saw, because was going to see Freddy’s Dead in theaters at age 11 or 12, so went to rental place to watch some more but 5 was for SALE not rent so got that one instead of renting some others. I can’t remember what order I watched them in, but I remember my uncle bringing over original when I was 6 or 7 and going outside because I was too scared and my jerk cousin scaring me around same age by trying to me telling me 3 was based on a true story but not first. I figured that was too detailed to be a lie, ironically later I found one original was based on true stories. Ah…memories that are fading with age.
This was my introduction to Freddy Krueger. The "Making of" special on the VHS rental got me into studying special effects makeup. That roach sequence still gets me.
I still have that vhs 😂
Same, this was my first Freddy. Such a great time when I was like 7yrs old 😂😂
That sequence scarred me 😂
Same haha
I worked at a theater showing this back in the day. To this day, I don't watch Kincaid's scene. It still breaks my heart.
I am a true Fredhead, born in '84 & started my obsession at 5 yrs old (yeah, questionable parenting). So I just wanna say thanks for helping keep Freddy in the pop culture zeitgeist, cuz every new generation needs, no, deserves to know Robert Englund
I was around the same age when my freddy obsession began. We turned out just fine man
@ehnoobsemaj7774 Thanks bro. Well I turned out relatively f'd up (neither here nor there lol) but doing alright! I thought u looked familiar... Then I realized u look like me lol... Also good to see that you're a cat lover. I've never in my life not lived w/one or more cats. My 18 yr old Tuxy girl Doodles is my life. So afraid to lose her. Anyways be well bro.

Also it wasn't the piss that resurrected Fred, it was Kristen's continued fear of him returning. Kincaid and Joey warned her too. But her anxiety that he'd one day return, doomed them.
Was the dog a hellhound? That's how I took it. But the Kristen thing makes sense
@@the_fd_180 it might have been possessed by Fred in the DW, but it was Kincaid's dog
Except it was the piss that triggered it..
@@POOPGOD999 all it did was open a rift. It would've been the same if Kincaid woke up there without his dog and an earthquake happened and he resurrected.
@@thecunninlynguist ok but that didn't happen the dog pissed fire
My personal favorite of the franchise. Always thought of this movie as an action horror film.
The very first nightmare on elm Street I saw and it will always hold a special place for me
My first Freddy movie!! I was so scared watching this, but I became addicted from the on. Meeting Robert Englund was one of the greatest days of my life.
This was always my favorite one. It has the perfect balance of humor, horror action, and special effects. Also I think Freddy looks the best make up wise in this one.
This was my first memory of Freddy and will always be my favorite entry in the franchise just for its camp factor and humor as a 9 year old kid.
Same here, parents are so protective nowadays, but I actually think a 9 year old can see this.
With parent supervision of course.
Now the very first Nightmare on Elm Street, that terrified me as a kid.
To this day, this is my absolute favorite nightmare.

Yeah, the female heroine, combining martial arts and science, and mythology to defeat the villain was epic
I love this movie now. As a kid it terrified me and for years, I had nightmares about the cockroach kill without remembering what movie it was from. It’s still my favorite Nightmare film. Others are objectively “better” films, but this one is just so wild from start to finish. Glad you all covered it.

Now the very first Nightmare on Elm Street, and the first Halloween movie, had me believing that Freddy, or Michael Myers were hiding in the closet, or the shadows
"Wanna suck face?" "Well it a'nt Dr Seuss" Oh man, Freddy had so many great one liners in this movie. lol
Tell 'em Freddy sent ya!
Nightmare 4 was awesome
I must admit I love Dream Master, its probably my number 4 in the franchise behind Nightmare 3,2,1 but its a great movie. As the nightmares got released further into the 80s i just loved the music etc that went with the films and its really nostalgic for me, great fun movie.
I might’ve been looking too deep into this, but I always took the dog thing as his resting place being “desecrated”. It was no longer hallowed ground, thus allowing him to revive himself.
@Billy Dunn That's an interesting interpretation. Robert Englund once suggested that the dog could be a metaphor for the 'hound from Hell'...
That's actually kinda interesting. Except for one thing. Dog pee is not against God's will. God hath made dogs to peeeth.
@@whobitmyname His dog reminded me of a hellhound in that scene as he first pees fire from hell to get things going and then nearly attacks poor Kinkaid. That was not his Jason lol.
35 years old!
Still the most fun entry in the franchise particularly when it comes to the special effects
The movie is one of my favorites in the series; a rocking 80s soundtrack, a likable cast of teens, solid pacing, way more creative ways of Freddy slaughtering his victims, plus this is also the birth of Freddy using his infamous one-liners
Renny Harlin makes this so much fun to watch plus Robert Englund enjoyed this as his best performance as Freddy
The film takes advantage of the surrealism of the landscape of the mind, the imagination, the dreamscape, of an individual victim’s nightmare
The death scene involving the cockroach transformation is so grisly and will always stick in my mind; it’s another one of those phobias that turns on the person who has it to full effect
Lisa Wilcox makes for a very interesting lead too being she’s a character that’s gaining a trait every time one of her friends dies which will build her strength to face Freddy so she grows in terms of her arc too going from timid and shy to confident and active
There’s also a theme of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ next to the philosophy of Aristotle of when you dream your soul walks free although Wilcox’s casting is a bit on the nose
This was a rushed production and it was heavily impacted by the writers strike of ‘87 yet Renny Harlin makes for some big action set pieces in a ‘Nightmare’ film that basks in its excess being colorful, inventive, and imaginative
It’s like a giant music video given this was the MTV generation
‘Dream Master’ leaves a great impression despite most franchises being so fatigued by so many fourth entries

Part 3 and 4 are still my go to movies in this franchise. They are the best in balance.
Tuesday Knight was the one singing the song in the beginning running from this nightmare. She was wonderful in this
I think 2 & 4 are underrated
1:20 I'm surprised you didn't point out that the song was performed by Tuesday Knight, the same actress subbing in for Patricia Arquette.
Alice a underrated final girl she's no Nancy but she's the first final to face physically face Freddy engaging in a fight with him.
While part 3 is my favourite I still find myself watching part 4 more often, there’s something about it that just always appeals to me.
I got to attend a screening of this flick with Lisa Wilcox and it was a fun Father's Day for me. I first saw this flick ages ago when I found the VHS in my Christmas stocking! Sure, it's not as good as the first 3 movies, but it's a fun movie and Englund clearly had fun with this one. Also this movie made me realize I like Renny Harlin movies.

Absolute banger of a song from Dramarama.
An underatted classic.

Nice.
This is my fav Nightmare movie
You shouldn't had buried me im not dead is my favorite line in the entire series
Tuesday knight sang the opening song for this film as well. Sure yall knew that already but I always thought it was cool
I never miss the opportunity to point this out... I'm disappointed so many Nightmare fans keep incorrectly making fun of the revival scene. "Ha ha, Freddy got resurrected by evil dog piss."

This is still my favorite Nightmare.
Also the soundtrack for part 4 is so amazing, without a doubt my favorite soundtrack from the saga! Oh man I love ANOES ❤️
Ot was interesting to see Freddy Krueger deflate a human being like a balloon. You know the whole suck-face thing.
Hell yes! Best superhero movie of all time!! Lisa Wilcox best horror heroine & a sweet woman! Had to endure pippi lingstocking before being able to watch this back when it came out on VHS
God, I miss the days of having to watch commercials on VHS before the movie came on. You got to memorize commercials for movies as much as you memorized the actual movie.
@@neonicon8500 Yeah I miss a lot about the old days!
Still waiting for Freddy to come back...
I love this move.

When your powers combine, i am caption planet 😂😂😂
The most underrated nightmare movie ever
Hearing the dramarama - anything track play always makes me wanna do karate moves
Worth pointing out that the opening song was performed by Tuesday Knight, the actress who played Kristen.
My memory fades here and there, but this just might’ve been my intro to NOES around age 4 in ‘88 or ‘89. As a kid, it was the most terrifying collection of images I had ever seen, but it was fun and vibrant lol. Since then, it’s probably the most endearing entry in the series for me.
Yeah Freddy always made me uneasy as a kid but Chucky terrified me
Yeah, they were a tandem force. Our My Buddy dolls freaked us out, then you had to deal with Freddy at bedtime
My favorite sequel in the franchise!
Dream Master is legit fire. My fave sequel after the original.
I'm glad you love this movie.... I love it too..... Not too many youtubers do
Renny Harlin is Finnish not Dutch. It gets ever weirder up there.
Lisa Wilcox is fantastic as Alice Johnson. 😀👍
3 is my favorite but 4 is pretty fun. It's like popcorn theater at it's best
Freddy's line "you shouldn't have buried me, I'm not dead" was a cool play on Bill Pullman's line "Don't let them bury me, I'm not dead!" From The Serpent and the Rainbow.
This one had some great camera work, mood and great FX done by Screaming Mad George, guy's something else.
Dare I say, I love it more than Dream Warriors!
Not the best film in the series, but my personal favorite that I always come back to.
I am such a huge nightmare on elm street fan this was such a treat do you think you could do more stuff on this franchise you guys are the best
This has always, always, always been my favorite nightmare movie..... Such a dope movie and awesome soundtrack
Tuesday Knight was so much better as Kristen that Patricia Arquette yet that’s always the first reason they can come up with to say bad about this movie.
The Dream Master will always be the best elm street movie/sequel. It’s the perfect 80s slasher with a killer soundtrack. Elm Street Franchise really peaked in here.
I would argue that we received four Elm Street sequels, following Dream Master, counting Freddy versus Jason is part of the canonical story
I always looked at 1, 3 and 4 being the actual trilogy and true ending with him losing all the souls
My intro to Freddy was through the original. I was a young teenager working in our local video rental shop ( Betamax or VHS please?) in South Africa, mid 80s, and this came in one day in our new releases. I took it home that night, the VHS box still wrapped in cellophane. I like to believe I was first person to see it on home rental in our town lol. It was considered quite a shocking horror movie and had a 21 age restriction - I kid you not, good old South Africa in the 80s my friends. My fav sequel has always been 3, thanks to Arquette and that horrible 'snake' Freddy. It had an awesome cinema poster for its release in Thailand as well. Dream Master is a definite second place. By the way, I love the JoBlo videos and it was nice to put a face to a name, thanks Tyler.
I'm definitely a dream master.
I LOVE the music in the background of Alice and Freddy’s final fight.
What?! No mention of Linnea Quigley, scream queen legend, and her brief role - c'mon JoBlo.
Everytime I play I Want Your Hands On Me by Sinead O'Connor, I think of this movie. They go hand in hand.
Back during a time when movies would have awesome soundtracks
Dream Warriors was my favorite mainly because of the likable cast...I never Forgave this one for killing off the Survivors
As always your videos always kick ass. “Bring me more”…. Videos
Another great,great,great video! Thank you Tyler!
I found it funny that Kincaid's dog was named Jason, and he resurrected Freddy.
Love goofy freddy. And spooky freddy. All Freddy is good Freddy.
How sweet! A new episode! I love this channel. Btw, this the 1st Freddy movie I watched as my introduction to the series. Yes I was born in the early 80s. My parents just wouldn't allow this type of media in our house.
Knight was sleeping with Harlin. That's how she got the part AND the opening number (that 80's song) on the soundtrack. Look it up. Pretty scandalous :)
I would love to see you cover Maniac, Them
Howling (even it’s silly sequel) or American Werewolf in London.
Great segment on Nightmare 4! Keep up the great work Tyler and JoBlo Team!
I loved seeing Tyler after hearing his voice so many times!
Alice is one of my top 3 "final girls" of all time! And she got a kicka$$ movie as her introduction, absolutely LOVE this movie!
I'll always love part 1 best, but part 4 is my favorite sequel. Even over dream warriors. Dream Master is so much fun. The time loop scene blew my mind and the roach motel is brutal. Also I prefer Alice to either kristen.
Oh man I always loved those openings too
This is CRAZY - in all theses years I never knew that was the same character as Patricia Arquette. I thought it was some "throw-away" character added. Been a couple of decades since I watched 3 and 4.
That pizza scene,literally disturbed the fuck of out of me and I had to stop eating pizza for a while🤢
This is a fun movie probably the second most fun of the series after 3. Part 1 is still the best the series has to offer but 3 and 4 are the most fun in terms of pure entertainment. This film isn't scary because by this point Freddy was to exposed but its really entertaining and entertainment value matters to me.
This wasn't actually scary, more like hip, cool and exciting.
I don't know, maybe because I saw this movie when I was 8 or 9 in the actual theaters, Tuesday Knight has a special place in my heart. Probably because I had a crush on her as a kid.
Her, the main female vampire from Fright Night part 2, Sorsha from Willow, and the blonde from Twins. And Probably many others. 🤣
...YES!
Best Freddy makeup is nightmare 2. Still creeps me out to this day.
I love that you badmouth the critic score, yet the audience score was 10% lower 😭
My 4th favorite elm street movie it's definitely the MTV nightmare it shot like a music video good cast good visuals Alice is my 2nd favorite elm street girl and Freddy's death is my favorite in the franchise
I genuinely liked the fourth installment of this movie, titled as (NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4: DREAM MASTER).
Very very great epic video to one of my favorite a nightmare on elm Street movies ever did you ever do any of the scream movies yet
Kincaid was a black guy in an 80’s horror movie, he was dead from the jump
I loved that you used the actual scene from JoBlo horror intro, instead of just the audio, now I know why I always thought of this movie whenever a video started, just kidding of course, NOES 5 was the first Freddy movie I saw, because was going to see Freddy’s Dead in theaters at age 11 or 12, so went to rental place to watch some more but 5 was for SALE not rent so got that one instead of renting some others. I can’t remember what order I watched them in, but I remember my uncle bringing over original when I was 6 or 7 and going outside because I was too scared and my jerk cousin scaring me around same age by trying to me telling me 3 was based on a true story but not first. I figured that was too detailed to be a lie, ironically later I found one original was based on true stories. Ah…memories that are fading with age.
Knight’s parents really couldn’t pass up the opportunity to name their child after a day of the week lol
This was my favorite, this an part 3, the dream warriors
I’d like to see you cover either An American Werewolf In London or From Dusk Till Dawn
Elm Street 4 and 5 seem like fever dreams when I watch them 😂 no pun intended
"Captain Alice....The Dream Master!!"
Still my favorite 😍
Easily the most rewatchable of the series. It all goes downhill after this movie sadly
Love this flick.
I would love to see you do the next series on Cabin Fever
3 and 4 are tyed for my favorite! Of couse the 1st as well!
