It's good

Hm. I don't agree with a lot of people who say that this is the best movie in this whole franchise. So far I still think first and even second one are better than this.

It's definitely interesting and all but I don't see the special appeal in comparison to the other two.

Nancy makes a comeback to help a couple of other kids who are being tortured by Freddy. The difficult part is that they are all in a mental hospital and therefore her ability to help them is heavily restrained. Especially by that stupid woman's narrow mindedness and stubbornness. I don't know or care whether she was a doctor or a nurse but she was actually the one who stood in the way of their salvation. Inadvertently, of course, but still. If it weren't for her most of the kids would have been saved. She's one of the rare instances where someone being narrow minded, stubborn and judgmental is actually endangering others around them physically. Most of the times people like her are considered difficult, annoying and such but their influence doesn't tend to extend much further than that.

Freddy's mother doesn't seem to have a tiniest little bit of love or care for her own son. She never did. She gave him up at birth and then never bothered checking in on him and didn't seem to mind that he fell into an abusive alcoholic psycho clutches. Some mother she is indeed. With a mother like that plus that kind of childhood, anyone will turn out crazy and psychopathic. How can he have empathy when no one ever gave any of it in his life, he didn't have anyone to teach him any values or shape him into a good or at least normal man.

Still, the movie is great and Philip's death was probably the most creative of the lot, though I liked Taryn's one the best. I mean I love Taryn, but her death was pretty epic, so fun to watch, that's all.
