A horror classic that delivers chilling horror with a unique premise, iconic villain, and memorable scares.
A classic scary movie that established one of the chilling characters of horror movie lore. Excellent script, unique villain. Gotta watch it
One of the most iconic horror movies to exist. Not saying it’s perfect, but it holds a lot of sentimental value to me.
Good only because the individual scene effects were great. Film itself is pretty hilarious and bizarre
Classic 80s horror flick with great sfx and an entertaining storyline... Definetly refreshing back then... Highly recommend!
Such a great movie and start to the franchise! Very innovative for the 80's too.
Not really a horror film a bit overblown but still a good film and the best in the series
One of the all time classics for the horror genre
The real estate agents for Elm Street must be starving to death and living out of their cars.
An iconic horror movie with an even more iconic villain and some of the coolest kills in slasher movie history 9/10 I highly recommend
