Round two of Dan and Keith and Freddy Krueger, as the franchise goes from silly to dumb to... very meta. The slow slide from dread to cartoonish began last time with The Dream Master, and now the slide speeds up through The Dream Child and into the doomed-to-be-broken promise of Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare. Then, three years after Freddy's claw glove was hung up, Wes Craven returns to test some ideas he's been having about self-referential meta-horror in New Nightmare... a film that showed promise but wasn't quite Scream yet. We dig into Freddy's slide into near self-parody, bizarre cameos, Freddy Vision, and more as we witness the death and attempted rebirth of Nightmare on Elm Street.
