This movie is pretty good, but it's not the best Wes Craven movie ever. The story is very new and smart. The acting is pretty decent. The direction is memorable and Wes Craven is great, as always. The visuals are realistic.... Full review

Freddy Krueger is one of the best horror villians in movie history. He kills teenagers in their dreams, because their parents burned him alive. Wes Craven is one of the masters of horror and no one could have played 'Freddy' better... Full review

don't deny that the first film is pretty amazing.....That doesn't make the movies bad necessarily....this documentary highlights their significance and influence....you're just a lover of horror films in general or truly a Freddy fan boy.....recognize that almost none of the films are well-made;.... ...

there is an undeniable low-rent, do-it-yourself charm to the movie.....Not bad for a movie that didn't need to be made in the first place.....Mostly "A Nightmare on Elm Street" is a fun movie, a guilty pleasure....While Robert Englund has a good time hamming it up in his first appearance as Freddy, some of the others are terrible..... ...

featuring the screen debut of a baby-faced Johnny Depp, 1984's "A Nightmare on Elm Street" isn't only more restrained than this remake.....That film is incredibly gory.... ... Full Review

Not only does the film look amazing....In most cases, the original film is always better than its sequels....For a horror fan, it's hard not to be in absolute awe of this film from beginning to end.....he is today, there was the original film that will always be a pedestal of classic horror cinema.....Take one great movie on Blu-ray and couple it with just the right amount of quality special features.... ...

Ain't It Cool Movie Reviews
Nightmare is close to being a good film.......I'm not a struggling film critic, film student....It's like they watched a bunch of great horror films for inspiration.......and these flashbacks turn out to be one of the more successful parts of the film.....However, what the original had are amazing iconic and visceral scenes of horror..... ...
