Let's start by saying that this movie is bad, like really bad.

I liked the opening scene, it is creative and well done. The script is terrible, the central idea has some potential (although I don't really like possession movies) but it just fails delivering anything with at least a mediocre quality. The characters are not interesting and their conversations are boring.

This film decides to break all the rules established in the first movie. Freddy is supposed to have power only in the dreams, so here they decided to brought him to the real world just to starts killing random people with his claws. The best aspect of the original film is its central plot, which is utilizing the power of dreams to invent creative ways to horrify the audience and that is left aside. That's a damn shame.

The only good aspect is the special effects, which are incredible, one of the best I've seen. Although, the deaths are pretty lame. At least the poster is nice.

Oh heck, even the title doesn't make sense. Why Freddy's Revenge? If we only consider the first movie, Freddy kills everybody, so there's no point in "revenge", he butchered everyone. If not, we discover later that Nancy survives the events of the original movie. So, if Freddy wants some payback, he should go after Nancy, not some random kid used as an avatar to kill his friends.

It's been a day since I've seen this masterpiece and I can't even remember what else I disliked, or liked. This film is awful.
