nancy thompson and her friends are stalked in their dreams by the horrific 'dream master' himself - Freddy Krueger!!!
Wes Craven does a perfect job in rejuvenating and refreshing the horror genre, first with this elaborate 'slasher', and secondly with 'scream' more than ten years later. Taking the successful elements from both 'Halloween' and 'Friday the 13th', Craven created what many think is one of the best horror films of all time - and I certainly have to agree it is impressive.

Firstly, the character of Freddy is well-written - he is a guy that is in control of the characters and therefore the audience. You have no idea what he is going to do next, and the people he kills are slaughtered with the right amount of gore to please the slasher hungry viewers without becoming considerably clich. Also I recommended Download Free Jimmy And Judy Movie
To me, the very perfect horror film ever made.
This film is the overall perfect horror film to me. The villain is unique and insane, with the very creepy look of the burned up body, the knives for fingers making it many people an easy close combat kill (which I find scarier than a ranged kill), and the almost bland look that will always stand out in you mind. The ability to control the world in which you dream is also terrifying, as we all dream, making us all possible victims. The directing I find amazing, many scenes being quite beautiful in my opinion, especially my favorite death scene which I will talk about later. The writing was good, with the unique story, and good dialogue and character development, to hate the characters we are meant to hate and love the characters we are meant to love, along with Freddy, being the character that we love to hate. I thought that Heather Langenkamp's performance was stunning, and I also find her quite attractive in that film as well. Robert Englund's acting was, as always, phenomenal. He is the perfect Freddy and always will be the perfect Freddy. He looks, acts, and sounds the part, and is the epitome of a nightmare in this film. Onto the last, but definitely not least, the deaths. Creative and very well done death scenes in this film. A Nightmare on Elm Street carries on the torch of having my very favorite death scene in any movie ever, the death of Johnny Depp's character Glen. Seriously, it is perfect in it's simplicity of being sucked into the bed to be killed, yet Wes Craven does one better by adding hundreds of gallons of blood to spray straight up to the ceiling. This film is absolutely, and will forever be, my favorite horror film of all time.. Also I recommended Download Free The Break-Up Artist Movie
