Great ranking. I always enjoy your ranking videos, nothing like seeing everyone's differing opinions on these franchises. I've only seen the first four of this franchise, though I own the rest and will marathon it sometime soon. The first is definitely the best for me! It's a masterpiece. One video I would like to see from you is your top 10 favourite slasher films. I think that would be very interesting. There's so many to choose from.
I hated it the first time I saw it. Initially, I would have ranked it as one of the worst sequels ever. After watching it again I would say its one of my favorites. It still retains some of the grittiness of the first and I just love seeing the descent of the main characters sanity as Freddy uses him to do his bidding. The unintentional homo-eroticism of the movie is so hilarious. Its so obvious you cant even tell if its intentional or not.
Honestly Freddy was at his most menacing in part 2. Personally, part 2 is my favourite sequel of the franchise. That includes Dream Warriors and New Nightmare.
Wes Craven's story of the original nightmare on elm Street was about a kid having nightmares, scared to sleep he told him family about it he said "If I sleep, I'm scared something after me & I'll die." as they was watching TV in the living the father carried his son to bed & covered him over, he's dad being a physician and his dad demanding his son to take sleeping pills, and noticed that his son did not take the sleeping pills. and after they put their son to bed they heard a loud screaming and a rush to their son's room and before they got there he was dead.
the original Nightmare on Elm Street 1984 has so much history into it it came from Wes Craven himself, like a bum outside had the look of Freddy that's where the hat came from, the claws from Wes Craven's cat, good stuff.
That was great fun to watch as with all your vids. I have always liked New Nightmare but agree when it came out it seemed like horror was near over, the big franchises seemed to be winding down, obviously The Curse Of Michael Myers came a couple of years later, but then it wasn't until Scream kickstarted horror again and we got Urban Legend, Bride of Chucky, H20, I Know What You Did Last Summer etc that i fell in love with horror again. Another point you made, i love the Nightmare score, it's my second favourite after Halloween, closely followed by Scream, Psycho, Jaws, The Exorcist and Friday The 13th.
Thanx for giving credit where it's due to ANOES#2👏 Mark Patton is my favourite protagonist vs the darkest Freddy... the intense school bus opening is still scary!
I'm not a major Freddy vs. Jason hater, but respecting the source material is something they only did to a point. Jason was never afraid of water in any of the films...ever. All of the sudden he is terrified when Freddy drips some water on him. I definitely agree with your assessment of Freddy's Revenge, though. I've always enjoyed that one quite a bit.
Hey mate , fun video ! In every long franchise you have great , not so great and "bad" ones but when i think about this franchise it's that's it's lots of fun this franchise !

@Joel Johnson In my opinon the original makeup was the best, But you do have A point that he does look more sinister In the 2nd movie, But what I think is scary about the original Is that his voice Is like robert englund voice, But when He gets more pissed he looks more sinister his voice gets all growly. I just think their was something in the orignal that the 2nd didnt have.
Agree about Mark Patton as "Jesse" being underappreciated or not referenced enough when other reviewrs rank the franchise and it's positive stuff. What makes Nightmare 2 so scary, asside from Robert Englund, is Mark's facial expressions and the way he works his bright-colored eyes; similar to how I love Heather Langenkamp's expressions and blue eyes opening-wide when "Nancy" is panicking or in shock. They could have made great team also in the original if Mark would had played Nancy's boyfriend "Glen". Otherwise, we earned 2 great actors and characters for the first 2 (and quite distinct from each other) Nightmare movies. Another actress that I've never seen highlighted and always impress me is Brooke Bundy - Kristen's mom at parts #3 and #4. She's energetic and realistic; she adds a lot of anxiety and scare feel. Especially her unfortunately very short scene at part #4 arguing with Kristen on her mental state, and then watching her daughter being burned; the presence of Brooke is literally on fire everytime she appears. I don't like much Nightmare #4, but her small contribution greatly elevates it to the level of the original Nightmare, even if just for the 2-3 minutes she's shown. :-( In general, "Freddy's Revenge" is my #4 favorite after Nancy/Heather trilogy (#3 New Nightmare; #2 Dream Warriors; #1 Original), and unlike most others, I much prefer 5-"Dream Child" overall plot, imagination and characters, over 4-"Dream Master".
Love these videos of yours! I didn't see the last couple of the Elm Street movies although I did see Freddie vs. Jason. Completely agree with your 1 & 2. Great stuff.

Mostly agree with all your rankings. I find Nightmare part 2 to be highly underrated. The first three really do feel, to me, like the perfect trilogy. What I find most interesting about Freddy's Revenge is how you could conceivably take the plot as all one long nightmare that Jesse is suffering from. It's a long mind game that Fred is playing with the poor boy, making him dream about all these awful things. Killing people. Being possessed. Imagine a nightmare where you murder your own friends and prey upon your family. Maybe _some_ of the scenes are real life, but there are so many bizarre moments during his supposedly wakeful state. The bird exploding, the obscene levels of heat, the flames from the toaster and so on. Then there's the pool party massacre (which feels slightly out of character for Freddy) where he just goes full Jason Voorhees on everyone and stops with his mind games. Finally there's the last scene where, despite there being an awful slaughter just the night before, everyone is getting on the school bus just a-ok as if nothing happened. Then BAM, out pops Krueger's claws and we see the beginning of the film play all over again, the bus rushing off into the desert. All of these strange moments can be explained handily if it is one long nightmare Jesse is suffering from. Since we never see or hear of Jesse's character ever again in the franchise, and the pool party purge is not something that would just be ignored/forgotten in real life, one could even assume that he was one of the next victims of the first movie's bloodbath. Now we are seeing Jesse in the nightmare/hell that _all_ of Freddy's victims suffer in once he has taken them. Not too dissimilar from that moment in Nightmare 1 where Nancy can hear Rod, Tina, and Glen's screams while she searches through the boiler room. Also recall how in Dream Warriors Freddy shows off the souls he has. One could assume Tina, Rod, Glen, _and Jesse_ are in there somewhere. Once Freddy is finally laid to rest, I like to imagine that all of the souls are freed then rather than in the entertaining but inferior Dream Master sequel.
The Queer Nightmare scared me the most as a 7yr old. We had cable and I watched my Playboy, Tales from the Crypt and horror. The gayness confused and frightened my 7yr old, heterosexual little frame

1. A Nightmare on Elm Street 2. New Nightmare I absolutely loved the concept for this movie, I enjoyed every second of it. But still I think it could have been better executed, perhaps to have Robert Englund play a bigger role? there's a scene where he is painting a freddy-esque picture and they only show it once, what was that? I also think they could have made the last part where Heather becomes nancy longer, I loved that part, it worked so well, I would have liked to see more of her trapped in the movie world and cut down a bit on the hospital scenes. The Idea of freddy being a demon in disguise was cool, although I think some things on the last act where too cartoonish, like the tongue scene. It has a few flaws but I really really enjoyed it. 3. Dream Warriors 4. Freddy's Revenge As much as I hated the fact that they completely ignored the basic idea of Freddy, after watching parts 4 through 6 I realized this wasn't actually that bad. It has far better acting and Jesse is a much better protagonist. This one also still feels like a horror movie. 5. Dream Master Didn't care for this one, it was cookie cutter, bad acting, deaths were cool but I felt like this was a showcase of cool death scenes instead of a plot. They very obviously tried to make this a direct continuation to the 3rd one, which is why everyone from that movie is killed in the first 30 minutes, hated that. 6.Dream Child Even worse acting, and it is very sci fi fantasy, I particularly don't think freddy works with those themes, The comic book death was kinda cool tho. 7. Freddy's dead I could not believe what I was watching
@@DrumdumsOfficial I also have the same opinion on Freddy's Revenge. It gets so much unneccessary hate. Mark Patton was phenomenal in it and of course, Freddy was even more terrifying. My ranking goes: 1. Original 2. Freddy's Revenge 3. Remake 4. Dream Child 5. Dream Warriors 6. Freddy's Dead 7. Dream Master 8. New Nightmare These are all based on sheer enjoyment. Each film has certain aspects about it that I enjoy. The reason New Nightmare is last is because I simply felt it dragged on and I enjoyed it the least. But that's the beauty about it, it's all subjective.
The A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, worst to best, in my opinion: 9. Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare 8. A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child 7. A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) 6. A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master 5. A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge 4. Freddy vs. Jason 3. Wes Craven's New Nightmare 2. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) 1. A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors
The irony here is that there is no slasher monster character in film history that has a body count anywhere near James Bond. He has killed so many people in horrific and funny ways.
Dream Master ( forgive me i was 7 in a movie theatre with my mom and uncle covering my eyes. Its Nostalgia for me). then Nightmare 1. Dream Warriors. Freddys Revenge.FReddy vs Jason. New Nightmare. Dream Child. Nightmare Reboot. Freddys Dead. Although i have to say KUDOS to the ending of Freddys Dead for that awesome song at the end for giving us those moments dating back to the original!!!
You should of opened your intro with your Dokken "Dream Warrior's" cover, its so dope lol. Your Nightmare videos are the best, i agree with a lot of your list. I personally like 1, 3, 4, 7, 2, 6, 5, FvJ, then remake. What the hell is happening with the remake lol, i haven't heard anything about it. Freddy & Michael are the best icons in my opinion, even the ones that people consider bad i love regardless. Great video Lee, keep up the great work as always!!!

The only thing I would switch on your list is the top 2. Dream Warriors is arguably the best out of the list. Your commentary and ranking of Freddy’s Revenge is spot on!
My issue with the remake was that these teenagers were not likable. They were dead before being killed off. I would've liked to see them happy-go-lucky first, so you get to like them and to feel even more sorry that they have to die, just like you see them bond in the original and pretty much all its sequels. But in the remake you don't get any of this, you just listen to their monotonous speeches and patiently wait till they finally die and you don't care that they do. At least that's how I feel about it. Oh, and I had a really hard time buying that NONE OF THEM remembers what happened at pre-school, not even Nancy, who from what I recall was Freddy's favorite and probably got photographed and molested more than once. I for one remember quite a lot of my pre-school years!

He needed to finish the classic big 3 of horror first (Freddy, Jason, Michael). Those should ALWAYS be done first and foremost as they're the most important. Now, sky's the limit, he can do whatever he wants next. And you add clips from movies a variety of ways. You could have the movie burned onto your computer from the dvd and take clips straight from that file by editing and splicing in Sony Vegas Pro, or you could take quick clips straight off of youtube as it is under the "fair use" regulation. Then, again, go into sony vegas, edit your video together, make it look pretty, done. Drumdums does this very well.
Good job Lee. Personally, first movie, Dream Warriors and Dream Master are my favorites of franchise, but i still think that other than Freddy's Dead all other films had something going for 'em (even Dream Child which i am not fan of), and big reason is probably due to all directors who were involved in those films, and who later made some other great films.
Good ranking dude. I think Freddy vs Jason has the best Freddy we have ever gotten. I love him. He’s scary. He’s funny. Every line he delivers is great. Granted, he only gets a single kill, but he invaded Jason’s dreams several times which I loved. That’s the only time Jason’s ever been afraid of water. Deep in his subconscious

I agree with your ranking for the most part (not with part 4 being kind of in the middle of the list, but I should rewatch it again because it's been a while since the first time I saw it and it didn't appeal to me at all, specially having seen part 3 before); and although I love The Dream Warriors, too, I have to say that my problem with this sequel would be the climax, with Nancy's father fighting Freddy's skeleton in the real world. I get that they were trying something different from the classic "bring Freddy to the real world" but still it is kind of a big turn off for me. But as I said, still my favourite sequel. I have a question for you: you mentioned that The New Nightmare tried to bring the franchise through another path, and that other slasher films also took this step. Which films from the Halloween, the Friday the 13th or the Scream do you think are their own "New Nightmare"? (apart from Season of the Witch)

Hey man, you should try to review all of the Saw movies in the franchise before the next one comes out this October. I think you reviewed the first one but I would love to see you do the rest. I am a Saw fan and I love the history of the franchise. I want to hear your thoughts on the franchise! Keep grinding bro!
I will definitely try to get a few of them done, but I usually take my time to get the best results out of my reviews. But I'm looking forward to revisiting that franchise for sure. Thanks for the recommendation.
The only Nightmare on Elm Street movies that I like are the original and Dream Warriors. Out of respect for you, I did watch the entire video. I would love to see more of these "rankings" videos!
Great review! My favorite horror franchise of and character of all time, and our rankings are very close. I also like your take on part 2 and the remake, I feel the same about them.

Well done job. Interesting to hear your reasons for the rankings. I'm not really a fan of the reboot ( probably mostly to do with being fine with the original series ) or A New Nightmare ( I know I'm in the minority , but I just found it a bit dull). My top 2 favorites are the same as yours being part1 and Part 3. Other than those 2 my rankings change quite a bit depending on my mood. Freddy' Dead would be grouped with the reboot and A New Nightmare in my bottom 3 (admittedly it is the worst of those movies, but I probably would watch it over the reboot or A New Nightmare.
Yay ! FINALLY part 2 got the praise it deserved. As a gay teenager, that movie really stroke something in me. It was SO HOT and disturbing in the same time and Freddy has never been that scary. Great ranking. Anyway, here's mine (i love all of those movies) : 9 - Remake 8 - Dream Child 7 - Freddy's Dead 6 - New Nightmare 5 - Dream Master 4 - Freddy vs Jason 3 - Original 2 - Dream Warrior 1 - Freddy's Revenge

I’m going to check this franchise out as well as the “paramount tapes” of the Jason films because, from what I recall Freddy VS. Jason references scenes from both their respective franchises and I hadn’t seen the entire franchises of both when I first watched it but, I will be only watching 1 through 5 of Nightmare on Max because, I have heard that Freddy’s Dead is when the franchise becomes complete crap and honestly, I’ve seen sequences of that movie on SyFy and I couldn’t do it. The minute Freddy was riding around on the witches broom outside of the window and yells “I’ll get you my pretty, and your little soul too!!!!!” Of course referencing Wizard of Oz, I was completely done, I about fell out of my chair laughing at how ridiculous the sequence was and not in a good way and then I just couldn’t finish the movie and from what I hear, that’s a good thing because people who are much bigger fanatics of the franchise that I know are constantly telling me “avoid Freddy’s Dead at all costs”. Of course, I started watching it on SyFy’s 31 days of Halloween one day just out of curiosity and you know what, they were obviously right so, I just stopped the movie and I still to this day haven’t seen all of Freddy’s Revenge, even though Freddy seemed to me at least the sequence I have seen which is the “You’ve got the body, and I’ve got the brain!” sequence to be the creepiest portrayal of Freddy. I’m actually about to sit down and binge the whole franchise, starting with Freddy’s Revenge as I hear it’s more of a “possession” type movie where Freddy possesses Jesse by the end of the movie therefore, I’m watching it first because, I’ve obviously seen the 1984 classic hundreds of times but, I just watched Dream Warriors for the first time earlier this year when it was on Netflix if you can believe it and I loved it. Still one of my favorite sequences in that movie meaning Dream Warriors of course, is when the blonde girl Kristen which is one of my favorite female characters in the franchise so far, in fact she’s probably my favorite second only to Nancy herself from the first movie but, when Kristen is dreaming and she sees the Freddy worm which at first I thought was stupid but then the more I thought about it, it was actually pretty damn creepy, and she’s getting chased in her dream by the Freddy worm and pulls Nancy into her dream to help her and then the Freddy worm actually looks over with this pissed off look in it’s eyes at Nancy and says “You!!!!” that line gave me chills when I first watched it earlier this year because, my first thought was that Freddy was basically going “You’re in my world now bitch, and I’m gonna have some fun with you before you die!!!!” type of deal. I also thought, that the end of Part 3 was the real moment of Freddy’s Revenge in a way whereas Freddy would say “I got ya bitch!!!!” as he murders Nancy, which I hated as she’s honestly one of my favorite final girls maybe the favorite of mine I’d have to think about it.

Great ranking. I always enjoy your ranking videos, nothing like seeing everyone's differing opinions on these franchises. I've only seen the first four of this franchise, though I own the rest and will marathon it sometime soon. The first is definitely the best for me! It's a masterpiece.
One video I would like to see from you is your top 10 favourite slasher films. I think that would be very interesting. There's so many to choose from.

- New nightmare.
Same perfect trilogy
Yes, those are my top 3 for sure!
Yep
Those movies are tits
Same here
Part 2 is definitely the most underrated.. Freddy was truly terrifying,, then they turned him into a clown..
I hated it the first time I saw it. Initially, I would have ranked it as one of the worst sequels ever. After watching it again I would say its one of my favorites. It still retains some of the grittiness of the first and I just love seeing the descent of the main characters sanity as Freddy uses him to do his bidding. The unintentional homo-eroticism of the movie is so hilarious. Its so obvious you cant even tell if its intentional or not.
After part 3. The Dream Warriors was fun.
I just can't stand all the the weirdest in this movie.
@N G Bad acting? Part 2 has incredible acting performances. The acting the rest of the Elm Street movies sucked so bad.
Honestly Freddy was at his most menacing in part 2.
Personally, part 2 is my favourite sequel of the franchise. That includes Dream Warriors and New Nightmare.
Wes Craven's story of the original nightmare on elm Street was about a kid having nightmares, scared to sleep he told him family about it he said "If I sleep, I'm scared something after me & I'll die." as they was watching TV in the living the father carried his son to bed & covered him over, he's dad being a physician and his dad demanding his son to take sleeping pills, and noticed that his son did not take the sleeping pills. and after they put their son to bed they heard a loud screaming and a rush to their son's room and before they got there he was dead.
Great video and unique ranking man. I was surprised how low New Nightmare was

the original Nightmare on Elm Street 1984 has so much history into it it came from Wes Craven himself, like a bum outside had the look of Freddy that's where the hat came from, the claws from Wes Craven's cat, good stuff.
That was great fun to watch as with all your vids. I have always liked New Nightmare but agree when it came out it seemed like horror was near over, the big franchises seemed to be winding down, obviously The Curse Of Michael Myers came a couple of years later, but then it wasn't until Scream kickstarted horror again and we got Urban Legend, Bride of Chucky, H20, I Know What You Did Last Summer etc that i fell in love with horror again.
Another point you made, i love the Nightmare score, it's my second favourite after Halloween, closely followed by Scream, Psycho, Jaws, The Exorcist and Friday The 13th.
Thanx for giving credit where it's due to ANOES#2👏 Mark Patton is my favourite protagonist vs the darkest Freddy... the intense school bus opening is still scary!
That scene is so underrated!
Great video! Dream warriors is my personal favorite. Keep the videos coming!
I'm not a major Freddy vs. Jason hater, but respecting the source material is something they only did to a point. Jason was never afraid of water in any of the films...ever. All of the sudden he is terrified when Freddy drips some water on him.
I definitely agree with your assessment of Freddy's Revenge, though. I've always enjoyed that one quite a bit.
Hey mate , fun video ! In every long franchise you have great , not so great and "bad" ones but when i think about this franchise it's that's it's lots of fun this franchise !
That pretty much aligns with my Nightmare on Elm Street list! Great video!

I love Revenge so much.
@Joel Johnson Holy crap the list sucks.
@Joel Johnson I think Original is the best.
@Joel Johnson In my opinon the original makeup was the best, But you do have A point that he does look more sinister In the 2nd movie, But what I think is scary about the original Is that his voice Is like robert englund voice, But when He gets more pissed he looks more sinister his voice gets all growly. I just think their was something in the orignal that the 2nd didnt have.
Agree about Mark Patton as "Jesse" being underappreciated or not referenced enough when other reviewrs rank the franchise and it's positive stuff. What makes Nightmare 2 so scary, asside from Robert Englund, is Mark's facial expressions and the way he works his bright-colored eyes; similar to how I love Heather Langenkamp's expressions and blue eyes opening-wide when "Nancy" is panicking or in shock. They could have made great team also in the original if Mark would had played Nancy's boyfriend "Glen". Otherwise, we earned 2 great actors and characters for the first 2 (and quite distinct from each other) Nightmare movies.
Another actress that I've never seen highlighted and always impress me is Brooke Bundy - Kristen's mom at parts #3 and #4. She's energetic and realistic; she adds a lot of anxiety and scare feel. Especially her unfortunately very short scene at part #4 arguing with Kristen on her mental state, and then watching her daughter being burned; the presence of Brooke is literally on fire everytime she appears. I don't like much Nightmare #4, but her small contribution greatly elevates it to the level of the original Nightmare, even if just for the 2-3 minutes she's shown. :-( In general, "Freddy's Revenge" is my #4 favorite after Nancy/Heather trilogy (#3 New Nightmare; #2 Dream Warriors; #1 Original), and unlike most others, I much prefer 5-"Dream Child" overall plot, imagination and characters, over 4-"Dream Master".
Love these videos of yours! I didn't see the last couple of the Elm Street movies although I did see Freddie vs. Jason. Completely agree with your 1 & 2. Great stuff.
Thanks Kenny!

Mostly agree with all your rankings. I find Nightmare part 2 to be highly underrated. The first three really do feel, to me, like the perfect trilogy. What I find most interesting about Freddy's Revenge is how you could conceivably take the plot as all one long nightmare that Jesse is suffering from. It's a long mind game that Fred is playing with the poor boy, making him dream about all these awful things. Killing people. Being possessed. Imagine a nightmare where you murder your own friends and prey upon your family.
Maybe _some_ of the scenes are real life, but there are so many bizarre moments during his supposedly wakeful state. The bird exploding, the obscene levels of heat, the flames from the toaster and so on. Then there's the pool party massacre (which feels slightly out of character for Freddy) where he just goes full Jason Voorhees on everyone and stops with his mind games. Finally there's the last scene where, despite there being an awful slaughter just the night before, everyone is getting on the school bus just a-ok as if nothing happened. Then BAM, out pops Krueger's claws and we see the beginning of the film play all over again, the bus rushing off into the desert.
All of these strange moments can be explained handily if it is one long nightmare Jesse is suffering from. Since we never see or hear of Jesse's character ever again in the franchise, and the pool party purge is not something that would just be ignored/forgotten in real life, one could even assume that he was one of the next victims of the first movie's bloodbath. Now we are seeing Jesse in the nightmare/hell that _all_ of Freddy's victims suffer in once he has taken them. Not too dissimilar from that moment in Nightmare 1 where Nancy can hear Rod, Tina, and Glen's screams while she searches through the boiler room.
Also recall how in Dream Warriors Freddy shows off the souls he has. One could assume Tina, Rod, Glen, _and Jesse_ are in there somewhere. Once Freddy is finally laid to rest, I like to imagine that all of the souls are freed then rather than in the entertaining but inferior Dream Master sequel.
Like you last comment about the souls. That would be cool for their souls to be released.
The Queer Nightmare scared me the most as a 7yr old. We had cable and I watched my Playboy, Tales from the Crypt and horror. The gayness confused and frightened my 7yr old, heterosexual little frame

I absolutely loved the concept for this movie, I enjoyed every second of it. But still I think it could have been better executed, perhaps to have Robert Englund play a bigger role? there's a scene where he is painting a freddy-esque picture and they only show it once, what was that? I also think they could have made the last part where Heather becomes nancy longer, I loved that part, it worked so well, I would have liked to see more of her trapped in the movie world and cut down a bit on the hospital scenes. The Idea of freddy being a demon in disguise was cool, although I think some things on the last act where too cartoonish, like the tongue scene. It has a few flaws but I really really enjoyed it.
3. Dream Warriors
4. Freddy's Revenge
As much as I hated the fact that they completely ignored the basic idea of Freddy, after watching parts 4 through 6 I realized this wasn't actually that bad. It has far better acting and Jesse is a much better protagonist. This one also still feels like a horror movie.
5. Dream Master
Didn't care for this one, it was cookie cutter, bad acting, deaths were cool but I felt like this was a showcase of cool death scenes instead of a plot. They very obviously tried to make this a direct continuation to the 3rd one, which is why everyone from that movie is killed in the first 30 minutes, hated that.
6.Dream Child
Even worse acting, and it is very sci fi fantasy, I particularly don't think freddy works with those themes, The comic book death was kinda cool tho.
7. Freddy's dead
I could not believe what I was watching
Fantastic ranking. The remake is criminally underrated and I too love it.
Yes! I enjoy it very much actually.
@@DrumdumsOfficial I also have the same opinion on Freddy's Revenge. It gets so much unneccessary hate. Mark Patton was phenomenal in it and of course, Freddy was even more terrifying. My ranking goes:
1. Original
2. Freddy's Revenge
3. Remake
4. Dream Child
5. Dream Warriors
6. Freddy's Dead
7. Dream Master
8. New Nightmare
These are all based on sheer enjoyment. Each film has certain aspects about it that I enjoy. The reason New Nightmare is last is because I simply felt it dragged on and I enjoyed it the least. But that's the beauty about it, it's all subjective.
The A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, worst to best, in my opinion:
9. Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare
8. A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child
7. A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)
6. A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master
5. A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge
4. Freddy vs. Jason
3. Wes Craven's New Nightmare
2. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
1. A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors
The irony here is that there is no slasher monster character in film history that has a body count anywhere near James Bond. He has killed so many people in horrific and funny ways.
Haha definitely. Hell, even the Rambo series has more kills than most slasher franchises.
+Drumdums oh god! That Rambo 4 film hahhaa. That looked like a Sylvester Stallone said "I can give a fuck" GIVE ME AN NC- 17 RATING!
Dream Master ( forgive me i was 7 in a movie theatre with my mom and uncle covering my eyes. Its Nostalgia for me). then Nightmare 1. Dream Warriors. Freddys Revenge.FReddy vs Jason. New Nightmare. Dream Child. Nightmare Reboot. Freddys Dead. Although i have to say KUDOS to the ending of Freddys Dead for that awesome song at the end for giving us those moments dating back to the original!!!
You should of opened your intro with your Dokken "Dream Warrior's" cover, its so dope lol. Your Nightmare videos are the best, i agree with a lot of your list. I personally like 1, 3, 4, 7, 2, 6, 5, FvJ, then remake. What the hell is happening with the remake lol, i haven't heard anything about it. Freddy & Michael are the best icons in my opinion, even the ones that people consider bad i love regardless. Great video Lee, keep up the great work as always!!!

The only thing I would switch on your list is the top 2. Dream Warriors is arguably the best out of the list. Your commentary and ranking of Freddy’s Revenge is spot on!
My issue with the remake was that these teenagers were not likable. They were dead before being killed off. I would've liked to see them happy-go-lucky first, so you get to like them and to feel even more sorry that they have to die, just like you see them bond in the original and pretty much all its sequels. But in the remake you don't get any of this, you just listen to their monotonous speeches and patiently wait till they finally die and you don't care that they do. At least that's how I feel about it. Oh, and I had a really hard time buying that NONE OF THEM remembers what happened at pre-school, not even Nancy, who from what I recall was Freddy's favorite and probably got photographed and molested more than once. I for one remember quite a lot of my pre-school years!
I will admit you have a point to an extent. I really liked Katie Cassidy. But the fun wasn't there haha.

One franchise you're forgetting scream or saw franchise

Drumdums I have a channel and I review movies
Cool I'll check it out!
Drumdums how do you add clips from movies
He needed to finish the classic big 3 of horror first (Freddy, Jason, Michael). Those should ALWAYS be done first and foremost as they're the most important. Now, sky's the limit, he can do whatever he wants next.
And you add clips from movies a variety of ways. You could have the movie burned onto your computer from the dvd and take clips straight from that file by editing and splicing in Sony Vegas Pro, or you could take quick clips straight off of youtube as it is under the "fair use" regulation. Then, again, go into sony vegas, edit your video together, make it look pretty, done. Drumdums does this very well.
Good job Lee. Personally, first movie, Dream Warriors and Dream Master are my favorites of franchise, but i still think that other than Freddy's Dead all other films had something going for 'em (even Dream Child which i am not fan of), and big reason is probably due to all directors who were involved in those films, and who later made some other great films.
Good ranking dude. I think Freddy vs Jason has the best Freddy we have ever gotten. I love him. He’s scary. He’s funny. Every line he delivers is great. Granted, he only gets a single kill, but he invaded Jason’s dreams several times which I loved. That’s the only time Jason’s ever been afraid of water. Deep in his subconscious
Yes Freddy is really great in FvJ.

Oh and props to the awesome drawing of Brandon Lee as Eric Draven in The Crow there on the right. Huge props.
I agree with your ranking for the most part (not with part 4 being kind of in the middle of the list, but I should rewatch it again because it's been a while since the first time I saw it and it didn't appeal to me at all, specially having seen part 3 before); and although I love The Dream Warriors, too, I have to say that my problem with this sequel would be the climax, with Nancy's father fighting Freddy's skeleton in the real world.
I get that they were trying something different from the classic "bring Freddy to the real world" but still it is kind of a big turn off for me. But as I said, still my favourite sequel.
I have a question for you: you mentioned that The New Nightmare tried to bring the franchise through another path, and that other slasher films also took this step.
Which films from the Halloween, the Friday the 13th or the Scream do you think are their own "New Nightmare"? (apart from Season of the Witch)

Hey man, you should try to review all of the Saw movies in the franchise before the next one comes out this October. I think you reviewed the first one but I would love to see you do the rest. I am a Saw fan and I love the history of the franchise. I want to hear your thoughts on the franchise! Keep grinding bro!
I will definitely try to get a few of them done, but I usually take my time to get the best results out of my reviews. But I'm looking forward to revisiting that franchise for sure. Thanks for the recommendation.
No problem man, anytime!
The only Nightmare on Elm Street movies that I like are the original and Dream Warriors. Out of respect for you, I did watch the entire video. I would love to see more of these "rankings" videos!
Thank you! And those 2 are definitely the best, but honestly I have fun with the whole series.
Great review! My favorite horror franchise of and character of all time, and our rankings are very close. I also like your take on part 2 and the remake, I feel the same about them.
Great minds brother! :p
Drumdums Hell yeah, awesome!

I'm not really a fan of the reboot ( probably mostly to do with being fine with the original series ) or A New Nightmare ( I know I'm in the minority , but I just found it a bit dull). My top 2 favorites are the same as yours being part1 and Part 3. Other than those 2 my rankings change quite a bit depending on my mood. Freddy' Dead would be grouped with the reboot and A New Nightmare in my bottom 3 (admittedly it is the worst of those movies, but I probably would watch it over the reboot or A New Nightmare.
Yay ! FINALLY part 2 got the praise it deserved. As a gay teenager, that movie really stroke something in me. It was SO HOT and disturbing in the same time and Freddy has never been that scary. Great ranking.
Anyway, here's mine (i love all of those movies) :
9 - Remake
8 - Dream Child
7 - Freddy's Dead
6 - New Nightmare
5 - Dream Master
4 - Freddy vs Jason
3 - Original
2 - Dream Warrior
1 - Freddy's Revenge
Its illegal to say a sequel was the best one.. Unless were talking Terminator 2
Haha it should be. :p
Bullshit what about godfather 2 or aliens or scream 4
You are forgetting Childs Play 2 and Friday The 13 The Final Chapter and Jason Lives

1. Nightmare on Elm ST (original)
I’m going to check this franchise out as well as the “paramount tapes” of the Jason films because, from what I recall Freddy VS. Jason references scenes from both their respective franchises and I hadn’t seen the entire franchises of both when I first watched it but, I will be only watching 1 through 5 of Nightmare on Max because, I have heard that Freddy’s Dead is when the franchise becomes complete crap and honestly, I’ve seen sequences of that movie on SyFy and I couldn’t do it.
The minute Freddy was riding around on the witches broom outside of the window and yells “I’ll get you my pretty, and your little soul too!!!!!”
Of course referencing Wizard of Oz, I was completely done, I about fell out of my chair laughing at how ridiculous the sequence was and not in a good way and then I just couldn’t finish the movie and from what I hear, that’s a good thing because people who are much bigger fanatics of the franchise that I know are constantly telling me “avoid Freddy’s Dead at all costs”.
Of course, I started watching it on SyFy’s 31 days of Halloween one day just out of curiosity and you know what, they were obviously right so, I just stopped the movie and I still to this day haven’t seen all of Freddy’s Revenge, even though Freddy seemed to me at least the sequence I have seen which is the “You’ve got the body, and I’ve got the brain!” sequence to be the creepiest portrayal of Freddy.
I’m actually about to sit down and binge the whole franchise, starting with Freddy’s Revenge as I hear it’s more of a “possession” type movie where Freddy possesses Jesse by the end of the movie therefore, I’m watching it first because, I’ve obviously seen the 1984 classic hundreds of times but, I just watched Dream Warriors for the first time earlier this year when it was on Netflix if you can believe it and I loved it.
Still one of my favorite sequences in that movie meaning Dream Warriors of course, is when the blonde girl Kristen which is one of my favorite female characters in the franchise so far, in fact she’s probably my favorite second only to Nancy herself from the first movie but, when Kristen is dreaming and she sees the Freddy worm which at first I thought was stupid but then the more I thought about it, it was actually pretty damn creepy, and she’s getting chased in her dream by the Freddy worm and pulls Nancy into her dream to help her and then the Freddy worm actually looks over with this pissed off look in it’s eyes at Nancy and says “You!!!!” that line gave me chills when I first watched it earlier this year because, my first thought was that Freddy was basically going “You’re in my world now bitch, and I’m gonna have some fun with you before you die!!!!” type of deal.
I also thought, that the end of Part 3 was the real moment of Freddy’s Revenge in a way whereas Freddy would say “I got ya bitch!!!!” as he murders Nancy, which I hated as she’s honestly one of my favorite final girls maybe the favorite of mine I’d have to think about it.
