Dream-haunting Freddy Krueger returns once again to prowl the nightmares of Springwood's last surviving teenager, and of a woman whose personal connection to Krueger may mean his doom.
In part six of the Nightmare on Elm Street series, dream monster Freddy Krueger has finally killed all the children of his hometown, and seeks to escape its confines to hunt fresh prey. To this end, he recruits the aid of his (previously unmentioned) daughter. However, she discovers the demonic origin of her father's powers and meets Dad head-on in a final showdown (originally presented in 3-D).Written by

When shown theatrically, audience members were given one pair of red cardboard 3-D glasses with movie taglines printed on it. The inside arms had adhesives for attaching to standard glasses. An advertisement for House Party 2 (1991) was printed on the outside of one arm. See more »

Crazy Credits
A text that appears before the opening credits reads: "Do you know the terror of he who falls asleep? To the toes he is terrified, Because the ground gives the way under him, And the dream begins..." -- Friedrich Nietzsche Then the text changes to: "Welcome to Prime Time, bitch." -- Freddy Krueger See more »
Alternate Versions
The version that aired on UPN actually had all the violent scenes in full, (only the language was edited). However, the TV version also had a few scenes and extensions of scenes not included in the theatrical and home video releases. These include: Maggie having a talk with her mother after having a nightmare before leaving for the youth shelter, a little bit more footage in the beginning of the scene with Tracy and Maggie are in the van after John was killed, a few extra shots of the desolate "Springwood Fair" See more »
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
