A strong addition to the Nightmare on Elm Street film series.

Freddy's Revenge has been unfairly critiqued for 30+ years. The sequel exudes a nastiness that Freddy sorely misses going forward.

While not as good as the original, it has some new creative and interesting ideas and some phenomenal practical effects

A bold and daring sequel. It explores the themes of sexuality, identity, and possession in a terrifying way.

Stepping away from the dream world into possession just erases an awesome premise and becomes not scary at all

Nancy and her boyfriend, Glen, must devise a plan to lure the monster out of the realm of nightmares and into the real world...

But it's not the harmful environment that could prove fatal to the intrepid, young explorers who have just landed on Old Earth. For them, it's Friday the 13th, and Jason lives!
