Re: A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master
6/10 -> C
Fourth entry in the series has a slightly less sensical story, but still not nonsensical as the second movie (we're talking in terms of rules the first movie established). The series here fully embraced Freddy's cheeky sense of humor, more cartoonish than scary kill scenes. I haven't seen the series in quite some time now and I was surprised at how well they hold up visually.

Re: A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master
My third favourite Nightmare after the first and last (New Nightmare, not Freddy Vs. Jason). The introduction of Alice, the absurd power ups she gets whenever anyone dies, and one of the best deaths in the series in the body building chick's grisly roach motel sequence. If memory serves, this is also the one where Freddie's in a diner eating a pizza where all the meatballs are tiny kids heads. Classic.

I also really like this one, not as good as 1,3 or 7 but real entertaining. And that roach scene must be the most disgusting death of any Nightmare film.

Re: A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master
This is what I had originally assumed the Nightmare sequels would be, but coming off the very strong Dream Warriors, the Dream Master was a big disappointment. I really didn't like how they just ran through the survivors from part 3 in the first 20 minutes, all to put over new girl who inherits all their traits (what?) to use against Freddy, but then ends up defeating him with a mirrror. I'm pretty sure anyone could have done that. I remember feeling legit tension and sadness when the cast of 3 entered into their final dreams, but here I just didn't care about any one of the newbies, even Alice. They are all cannon fodder. It has some fun kill sequences, and as previously said, that would have been good enough for many series, but Nightmare should be better than that.
