    • Trivia
      First film in the franchise to not include the little girls jumping rope, singing Freddy's rhyme.
    • Goofs
      (at around 28 mins) When John Doe and Maggie go to the school, Maggie finds a scrap book filled with articles related to Fred Krueger. In a close up of the book, an article is titled "Krueger Sought: Boy, 7, Missing" but the text that follows discusses baseball (Yankees, Kansas City, and the Mets) on the left side and military action in Vietnam on the right side.
    • Quotes

      Oprah Noodlemantra: All right. Once again. This is your brain.

      Oprah Noodlemantra: This is your brain on drugs. Questions?

      [Freddy hits him with the frying pan]

      Freddy Krueger: Yeah! What are you on? Looks like a frying pan and some eggs to me.

    5/10
    hilarious
    Yes this is a bad movie for the horror generation but it was more like a comedy spoof to me. I saw for this movie for gender part comedy, damn right it is. It has a bunch of cheap but funny one liners so thats why i'm not taking this movie seriously.

    We've saved the best for last, yeah that defiantly false advertising. I mean come on, the last 2 were awful you know this one's gonna be bad. The first one was a masterpiece and then by part 3 or 4 they were turned into comedies and Freddy's Dead is by far the funniest of them all.

    So this is my review of Freddy's Dead a cheesy yet funny movie and that is why i'm giving it a 5/10
