Product Description
From the Back Cover
Proving there's no rest for the wicked, the unspeakably evil Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund) is again resurrected from the grave to wreak havoc upon those who dare to dream. But this time, he faces a powerful new adversary!
As her friends succumb one by one to Freddy's wrath, telepathically gifted Kristen embarks on a desperate mission to destroy the satanic dream stalker and release the tortured souls of his victims once and for all.
Directed by Renny Harlin (The Long Kiss Goodnight, Die Hard 2) and loaded with killer effects and drop-dead humor, this is a "superior horror picture that balances wit and gore with imagination and intelligence" (L.A. Times).

RUNNING FROM THIS NIGHTMARE.....,
By jason (AUSTRALIA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)
AS A HUGE FAN OF ALL THE NIGHTMARES, I HAVE TO SAY THAT WHILE THIS ISNT THE BEST, ITS MY PERSONELL FAVORITE AND VERY ENTERTAINING. DIRECTOR RENNY HARLIN KNOWS HOW TO MAKE SOMETHING DIFFERENT USING FREDDY MORE LIKE A FANTASTICAL ELEMENT RATHER THAN STILL HAVE HIM LURKING IN DARK SHADOWS. ISNT THE POINT OF A SEQUEL TO TAKE THE ORIGINAL PREMISE AND TRY IT THROUGH A DIFFERENT STRIDE? THE ACTORS ARE ALSO IMPRESSIVE AND CAN EASILY BE TAKEN FOR GRANTED, FOR THIS SORT OF HONEST EFFORT ISNT USUALLY FOUND. THE FILM ALSO HAS TERRIFIC SONGS PLAYED AT APPROPRIATE MOMENTS THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE, INCLUDING TUESDAY KNIGHT'S MUCH SOUGHT AFTER "NIGHTMARE", GO WEST, BLONDIE, AND DIVINYLS. THE LOOK OF THE FILM IS WHAT TRULY MAKES THIS STAND OUT FROM THE OTHER NIGHTMARE MOVIES, USING SPECTACULAR AND SUREAL LIGHTING AND GRAND LOCATIONS INCLUDING A BEACH, CINEMA,CHURCH, AND A DINER IN WHICH FREDDY HAS A MEATBALL PIZZA IN A CLASSIC METAPHORE SCENE. ALL IN ALL, I CANT SEE TO MANY PEOPLE BEING DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS AS IT HAS SO MANY GOOD ELEMENTS YOUR BOUND TO LIKE ONE EVEN IF YOU DONT LIKE THE OTHER.

Belongs on the comedy shelf,

This review is from: Nightmare on Elm Street 4 (VHS Tape)
This was the first of the horrible NOES sequels. First of all, Patricia Arquette did not return to reprise her role as Kristin. Second, Freddy was supposed to be scary?? With all his wisecracking and stupid humor, he seemed like a washed up has been comedian. Trust me on this one, any ANOES's after part 3 is a waste of money.

Four down; three to go,
By Zagnorch (Terra, Sol System) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)
Sigh... like the first three 'Nightmare' flicks, the fourth one doesn't strike me as bein' all that scary. Sure there's the usual gruesome imagery that made me go "ugh"-- the whole roach-motel dealie bein' one of these "ugh" moments-- but otherwise I didn't exactly jump outta my skin or have any sudden arrhythmia attacks while watchin' this. The only real gross-out part for me was near the end, where all the souls of the kids Freddy took out try to bust out of him. I also wasn't too big on the somewhat silly manner in which Freddy gets 'killed' here; I mean, really-- a look at his own reflection in a cracked mirror is what does him in? How underwhelming...But in spite of my less-than-rave-review of this flick, I did enjoy the silliness of its courageous yet hokey and predictable attempts at givin' me a fright. Helping things out was the usual array of inventive Freddy kills & gags to keep things fresh (heh) including the aforementioned roach motel dealie, a waterbed drowning, a deflation and a frighteningly-fun shot at 'Jaws'.I also liked our fave undead madman's turn into a more comedic figure while still maintaining that menacing edge. And they even managed to improve the look of Freddy's 'burn' makeup/appliance job, which looks almost realistic in this go-'round. I guess New Line finally decided to pump some real money into the franchise, hmmm? Heh... 'Late
