A Nightmare on Elm Street 4:
The Dream Master (1988)

Rate: 3

9/06: A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master is pure Grade A cheese.

What a silly movie. Here's a question: what makes acting so bad? More importantly, how does one identify it? It'll be easily answered here. Freddy Krueger gets to say the best lines of anyone. There's a sickening scene when a tomboy girl suffered broken elbows during a bench press set which couldn't be more than twenty pounds.

Other than what I've said, there's nothing new to see here. It's just the same old recycled stuff from the last sequel. Hence, it's hard to believe Renny Harlin can't direct a simple horror picture. Then again, he can't direct for shit. A perfect example is Cutthroat Island which lost $147 million, causing Carolco Pictures to go bankrupt.

All in all, A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master marks the beginning of the end for the franchise.
