Overall, I was very impressed with American Nightmare, especially considering it was the director's first movie. Great storyline and great concept, with the killer using her victim's greatest fears against them. The movie had a great creepy atmosphere all the way through.That's not to say the movie was perfect. Most of the characters are under-developed (not that this is unusual in a slasher film) and there are some gaping holes in logic (the killer has a tendency to just walk away after terrorizing someone, with no one ever trying to stop her.) Also, I wasn't overly impressed with the acting from the heroine and the killer was a little too over the top for me.Still, the movie set out what it was trying to do. "American Nightmare" isn't out to win any Academy Awards, it simply wants to scare us, and it does that quite well.
