Welcome to Prime Time B*tch: Nightmare On Elm St 3 30th Anniversary Thread

[MartyMcFly]

Listened to a podcast today that put me on to the fact Dream Warriors turns 30 this month. It's in a couple weeks but I figured why not celebrate it now.

This is my third fav in the series but could easily be my 2nd fav depending on how i feel. It's easily the most important movie in the franchise though since it took Freddy from being this cult thing to a certified mainstream icon. Without this movie, no freddy pjs, no freddy toys, no freddy tv show and definitely nothing that came after it.

2nd or 3rd favorite in the franchise.

Great kills, nice look into Freddy's background a little more, Kincaid was that dude...I always when he calls Freddy a p*ssy

Dream Warriors def is #2. None of the sequels come close.

New Nightmare comes close

New Nightmare comes close

As much as I wanted to like New Nightmare I just find it bland and boring. Great premise, Wes had a dope idea but it fell flat to me.

My favorite of the series and one of my favorites to watch randomly throughout the year. Besides the original, this had the best cast/storytelling. Freddy is still legit menacing and the return of Nancy brings their arc full circle.

The perfect horror movie sequel and the embodiment of everything I love about the '80s.

freddy had me shook for almost a third of my life

I'd have to put DW @ #3 but it's a tight race.
