Classic, cheesy 80's horror October 4, 2007 16 out of 17 found this review helpful
'A Nightmare on Elm Street' is one of the most memorable and influential horror series ever made and is still as watchable now as it was back in 1984 when it was released. Everyone has heard of the infamous Freddy Kruger, the demon who visits you in your dreams and has a million and one ways of killing you in your sleep. They are by no means serious horror films as most of the deaths are quite amusing, with Freddy's classic one-liners to add more humour to the scenes. The acting isn't great, but I don't think it is really supposed to be, being in the date/horror genre that was very popular in the 80's with other series such as Friday the 13th, Halloween and Hellraiser. The first film also features Johnny Depp's first appearance onto the big screen.
Each of the films are fairly similar in storyline, with a new group of teenagers being stalked in their dreams by Freddy and getting killed off one by one if they don't stay awake. The first three films are by far the best, with The Dream Warriors (part 3) taking the series in a different direction, being in a hosipital for people with sleeping problems, as opposed to the usual high-school settings. Films 4 and 5 (The Dream Master & The Dream Child) are pretty bad and are definitely the worst in the collection. In part 7 (Wes Craven's New Nightmare) the actors actually play themselves are stalked by Freddy in "real life", which is an original and brilliant idea and a perfect way to end the series. It's just a shame that the 2004 movie "Freddy vs Jason" isn't included in this collection, as that would have completed the boxset perfectly.
Whether you are a fan of these films or have never seen them before, it is well worth getting this DVD boxset as it is 80's horror at it's best. Also at under 10 for the lot, you would be stupid to miss this, even if you are only wanting to watch parts 1, 2, 3 and 7 (the best ones). This is an essential DVD boxset that is one of the best, and most watched, that I own.
AN EXELENT BOX-SET! ! ! ! July 30, 2005 23 out of 25 found this review helpful
Iv'e always loved the Nightmare on Elm Street films and their wierd and wonderful death scenes so when the new 7 disc set came out i was gagging to get my hands on one. This box set has all the films (1 to 7) and has a great booklet that comes with it that gives stories, info, cast lists, and reviews about each film. It also includes a page of what Wes Craven thinks about the series. For a "collectors edition" it doesnt have many special features but Wes Cravens New Nightmare includes a good selection of commentaries and other good features. This box set also includes a great front and back cover wich makes it look great! If you like horrors or slashers then you must buy this!
1,2, Freddy’s coming for you… December 15, 2005 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Everyone must have seen one of the nightmare movies, yet for those who haven’t, this box set is the forefront of 80’s horror and nothing of its time period compares to the scares that many a man bewares.These 7 classic movies are a must have for Freddy fans and newcomers alike, and what better than a box set which includes a booklet featuring the official press releases for the movies. The discs also contain special features such as trailers, music videos and even commentaries from Clive Barker and other experts on the concept of Freddy and the derivative of horror. The movies sparked a TV series to keep Freddy entertained even longer, and once Freddy was pronounced dead for the final time, the fans were still insisting upon another movie sequel that would make them think twice about using knives with a glove on. He returned yet again in the horror of Freddy Vs Jason recently released. From Freddy’s initial appearance he returns to possess the next hero and from there we find our characters getting closer and closer together in unison to pledge fight the evil presence that threatens their lives with the nightmares many of us are really having from time to time, even if its too scary to remember. Incorporating the teenage rebellious attitudes of the times and its counterparts, Freddy is you’re every worst fear hiding in a movie. Freddy was murdered after being released free of charge for the serial killings of children. The parents unknowingly invited him to taunt their seemingly quiet nights instead, years later, inside the dream world in which he rises back from the dead to avenge and feed his hunger for the misery of those closest and easiest to attain a grasp upon where everyone must venture now and then. Dare you sleep at night with Freddy on his way???????????? All the characters display the qualities you would expect and admire in those being haunted by an evil of insane prospects inside a night-time of visions where you don’t always get where you want to go, and often think you have escaped, only to find yourself submersed in another realm of the nightmare. A happy ending is never what it seems and Freddy always manages to keep a grip on his horrific existence on the lives of the Elm Street children and beyond. If you’re looking for horrific violation of life and its paradise then this is the box set that any horror fan will adore and cherish as much as the children he feels a natural bond to protect, so while you’re watching Freddy just check on the kids now and then, make sure they’re sleeping well……………………………. In fact, you might want to consider an all-nighter with this one | | | |
The Ultimate Freddy Collection November 2, 2004 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is the Ultimate Freddy Collection for any fan of the series. It includes all seven movie (yes i said seven) from the orginal Nightmare all the way to Wes Craven's new nightmare. It also come with a excellent book detailing what happened behind the scenes and cast views and amazing Freddy fact (e.g Freddy kreugar was named after a high school bully!). It also includes artwork from each movie. Each movie comes with trailers and cast views and the all so cool abilty to jump to a nightmare, some of the later parts even come with music video.The movie themselves are a piece of art, even with different directors the sequel stay true to the rules set in the orginal (unlike Freddy vs Jason). Unfortunley the later films seem to wan a bit but still hold their value even today. The best of the lot is Part 3-Dream Warriors which is class and was the high point of the series before it went down hill. If you are a freddy fan get this it worth it and is an absolute bargin.
