A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET (1984) MY WORST NIGHTMARE! REWATCH | MOVIE REACTION

[@jessebatres6895]

Hey everyone, thank you so much for watching! Please consider subscribing to the channel. Who is the movie character that haunted your dreams and made you afraid to go to sleep at night?

[@laurenherda2415]

The score alone terrifies me!!! Im 42 and saw this at a sleepover at 8 yrs old I was a mess lol it became my favorite of all time, Freddy is such a great villain

[@jessebatres6895]

There's so much to the score! And I love the how the soundtrack feels so diverse with slow and fast scores. Sleepovers were the best, especially watching horror films or gory stuff that we definitely shouldn't be watching lol! Which is your favorite of the sequels? I've seen two of them.

[@laurenherda2415]

@jessebatres6895 definitely part 3 it's so good!! Part 2 is different, I don't hate it and I don't like it, part 4 is ok hated 5 but New Nightmare was really good

[@jessebatres6895]

The sequels I watched back in the day are part 2, which I want to check out again since the character is named Jesse lol! And I remember my sister and I enjoying it and kind of laughing a bit as well haha! I also watched Freddy's Dead. But I haven't seen the rest, so I'll have to watch part 3 pretty soon :)

[@laurenherda2415]

@@jessebatres6895 3 is really good it's definitely a fan favorite

[@hennakettunen8755]

Oh my, that dream of yours sounds truly horrific, the trapped, suffocating feeling, no wonder you woke up crying. 😬

[@jessebatres6895]

I still remember it like if I just work up from it 😨

[@QueenK88]

Candyman haunted me...I used to be so scared to look in the mirror...thinking Candyman would come out and kill me! Tony Todd's voice was so creepy in Candyman!

[@jessebatres6895]

Awesome! I bet anytime you would turn off the light leaving the bathroom, you probably made a quick little sprint if he came into your mind lol! That's one I have to watch. I know the basic premise, and watched Part 3 as a kid which I remember not being so great. But I hear part 1 is one of the best horror films of the 80's/90's era.

[@QueenK88]

@@jessebatres6895 Lol all the time! You should definitely check it out!

[@Jason-hl2rv]

I tried to watch this movie when I was ten in the middle of the day and I had to turn it off in the middle of the opening scene. I never had seen a horror movie before. I eventually watched it a few years later.

[@snakeeyes5638]

The second one haunted me as a kid. Something about Jesse breaking the mirror and Freddy standing there laughing.

[@jessebatres6895]

That's one I watched back in the day as well, and I wonder if the character being named Jesse made me think about Freddy even more lol! I might watch that one in November. Do you think they'll ever make another film? I'm surprised it's taking this long for them to make one.

[@snakeeyes5638]

@@jessebatres6895 Lol how far can they keep going with Freddy at this point is my biggest concern. At this point I'm waiting to see Predator versus Michael Myers 😂 or Jason vs Pumpkin head! Bro the first two Nightmares are where Freddy is his scariest. After that he might as well be doing stand-up comedy.

[@paulamoya7956]

Maybe as a kid u covered ur face and only remember the parts you braved . Usually kids cover their faces instinctually when scared. You are conquering this life long fear head on! Great Job⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️You Got this ☑️

[@robertovasquez6714]

Happy spooky season 🎃 Cool reaction ... The first one is the best one 👍🏼 ... Part 3 is really good too 💯

[@jessebatres6895]

Thank you so much Roberto! I'm glad you enjoyed it :) The other ones I saw as a kid were part 2 and Freddy's Dead. I haven't seen part 3, so I'll need to check out more of the sequels!

[@mlbarne]

This one movie did it for me more than any growing up as a kid in the 80s today I don’t get scared but I will have a nightmare if I even see an image. It’s like an energy was released when I was frightened as a kid and is activated when I watch it

[@jamestorres6600]

This movie really had an impact on you! 😱 Your reactions do make me laugh but we have movies that make us cringe or make us jump. 😋

[@jeremiahrose4681]

Wow, that dream you talked about would make a good scene in a Freddy movie. Carrie was the only movie that gave me nightmares I was about 9 or 10 at the time. Then that became my favorite horror movie with also The Thing. When you described the conveyor belt of people it remined me of the Pink Floyd video Another Brick in the Wall. It was children on a conveyor belt, need to see the video.

[@jeremiahrose4681]

My opinion, the best and scariest of all the Nightmare on Elm Street movies. My personal favorite is the 4th, The Dream Master. I always liked it for some reason. Freddy through the series always had the best one liners.

[@rgee3972]

I remember seeing this in the movies when it came out. I was 13. The movie pulls you in right from the beginning and doesn’t let go.

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thank you, Jesse! 😨 I saw this one in the cinema. I've seen all the installments in the franchise... but I think I appreciate this one, A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3: DREAM WARRIORS (1987) and NEW NIGHTMARE (1994) the most. 🔸 I think you'd also enjoy the documentary HOLLYWOOD DREAMS & NIGHTMARES: THE ROBERT ENGLUND STORY (2022).

[@jessebatres6895]

Nice! I bet everyone was scared to go to sleep when they got home lol! It's just on a different level of terror to think about how this guy can get you in your dreams. There's no hiding from him 😨 Ah! I'll find it and check it out. Would love to see some behind the scenes stuff and commentary by him :)

[@auntvesuvi3872]

@@jessebatres6895 I just saw a video with him and Heather Langenkamp responding to online comments a few days ago. They're so grateful for the fans of the movie.

[@Letha-Mae]

Lets go Robert Englund!! I never was scared of any movie character as a child but one THE EXORCIST. I have nightmares to this day about THE EXORCIST. I'm with your sister Johnny Depp is very handsome. I have a movie suggestion I think you would really like APOCALYPTO.

[@jessebatres6895]

It's crazy how sometimes the casting is just so perfect! Even his damn stance is so creepy lol! I completely understand The Exorcist being the one for you. I know for sure Regan and Freddy would've been chasing me at the same time if I had watched the Exorcist as a kid lol! Ah nice! I'm going to add that one to the list. I looked it up real quick and it looks awesome! Thanks Letha! :)

[@Letha-Mae]

@@jessebatres6895 I definitely had dreams of her chasing me doing her spider crawl. I also had dreams of being possessed and that is the kind of dreams you wake up make coffee and don't go back to sleep after! I hope I'm not giving you to much of a visual to were you have those dreams. I would sleep with a bible under my pillow bc I was so scared to go to sleep. I guess that's kinda like Nancy I went to a sleep center myself.

[@BigGator5]

🎶 "One, two, Freddy's coming for you. / Three, four, better lock your door. / Five, six, grab your crucifix. / Seven, eight, gonna stay up late. / Nine, ten, never sleep again." 🎶 Fun Fact: One of the main reasons Johnny Depp was chosen was because Wes Craven's daughter thought he was "dreamy" and that was why this is the feature film debut of Johnny Depp. Location Location Fact: All of the boiler room footage in the film was shot in the basement of the Lincoln Heights Jail in Los Angeles, which was condemned shortly after production wrapped, due to high levels of asbestos. Hot Take Fact: The scene where Freddy (Robert Englund) is set on fire, chases Nancy (Heather Langenkamp) to the top of the stairs, falls back down, and starts back up again, was all shot in one take, with several cameras, and was the most elaborate fire scene ever filmed up to that time. Stuntman Anthony Cecere won best stunt of the year for the scene. Blade Enthusiast Fact: The idea behind the glove was a practical one on Wes Craven's part, as he wanted to give the character a unique weapon, but also something that could be made cheaply and wouldn't be difficult to use or transport. At the time he was studying primal fears embedded in the subconscious of people of all cultures, and discovered that one of those fears is attack by animal claws. Around the same time, he saw his cat unsheathe its claws, and the two concepts merged, although in the original script the blades were fishing knives, not steak knives, as in the finished film.

[@jessebatres6895]

That nursery rhyme is just too perfect! And of course that's how Johnny Depp would get his start lol! Oh damn, that makes that boiler room scenes even more spooky and creepy! Yeah that was a pretty amazing stunt with the fire! It looked like the guy was on fire for so long, and yeah he deserved that award for sure lol! Freddy's who look and design just hits so well! But of course, Robert Englund just does a hell of a job with his mannerisms, voice, and body language

[@jeremiahrose4681]

I wonder who was going to post that, so epic. Stays with you forever.

[@MsMelyjean]

Don't worry, you are not out of the ordinary. You described how dreams work perfectly

[@paulamoya7956]

Thanks for sharing and facing your Fears with us this came out when I was a Jr in HS. These movies were always something we had to look forward to on Opening Night !! ⭐️☑️

[@jessebatres6895]

Thank you so much for watching Paula :) So lucky that you got to grow up during the era that all these great 80's films came out! Which of the sequels is your favorite? I've watched two of the sequels.

[@gubiks]

Freddy didn't haunt me so much as a kid. I was a teenager when this came out. But I understand your fear. My worst nightmares came from "The Exorcist". I was ten when I saw it. Great reaction as usual, sir.

[@jessebatres6895]

Oh man The Exorcist! And at 10 years old!! Yeah, that will definitely do it lol! And thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

[@LordVolkov]

Wes Craven transitions from shock horror (Hills Have Eyes, Last House on the Left) to more psychological/comedic horror with a couple TV movies (Summer of Fear & Invitation To Hell) as well as Swamp Thing 1980, before he gets into Elm Street. Craven had a really interesting filmography and truly became a founder of meta horror in the 90s with New Nightmare and Scream.

[@jessebatres6895]

I've heard that the Hills Have Eyes and Last House on The Left are super graphic. Is it people overexaggerating or is it indeed pretty graphic? I'd like to check those out as well. And one thing that may not stand out to others, but there's something about the name "Wes Craven" that goes really good with horror. Maybe just me lol!

[@LordVolkov]

@@jessebatres6895 Yeah, they're pretty gnarly. Go in with caution.

[@Doglover79586]

This was one of my first horror movies ever watched was only 4 . I always feel bad for Nancy nobody was there for her having divorced parents and alcoholism, I knew how she felt

[@joshparsons4121]

Jesse man I used to go every weekend to my cousins house and he loved horror movies. Every Saturday he watched either Freddy or Jason lol I might have got like 3 hours of sleep the whole time I was there. I wad only like 5 or 6 lol I'm gonna have that rhyme in mhead for days 😂

[@laurenherda2415]

One big error in this film in drives me crazy, it takes place in Ohio but the scene of Heather and Johnny on the bridge there's a giant palm tree in the back lol

[@LordVolkov]

Halloween does the same thing. Palm trees in 'Illinois' 🤣🤣🤣

[@jessebatres6895]

Haha! Good catch! I was gonna say, that funeral scene and the nearby scenery felt very "LA". And then I just went back to check it out and there's palm trees everywhere haha!

Notice the teacher is Elyse from that movie with the kid that goes to "the Future" that movie with Patrick Wilson. What's the name of it?

[@OliverMercer-gr5ks]

👺⚔️☕️😳 This has so many layers to it the whole film is a nightmare overall. It has no reality to it's storytelling structure that's for what i've taken from it over the decades. It's loosely connected to a true story event, towards war vets who died within there dreams if i'm not mistaken as well which is wild. 🇬🇧

[@LordVolkov]

If you are in need of a dark comedy this holiday season, try Better Off Dead, with Amanda Weiss (Tina) and John Cusack.

[@jessebatres6895]

Nice! I need to put together a list of comedy films so I'll include this one in there. Thank you!!

[@michaeljrigg]

This is how old *I* am: It was Godzilla and King Kong that got me. I would have nightmares about giants and huge monsters stalking me. I would not have survived "Attack on Titan" if I saw that as a kid.

[@jessebatres6895]

Now those are some scary creatures lol! It's especially terrifying because there's so much destruction happening all around you and people are all going nuts and probably even harming each other to get to safety.

[@satyadasgumbyji8956]

As i mentioned before, i was blessed to see "Halloween" at 6 yro & "Friday The 13th" & "The Shining" at 9. So unfortunately for me i didnt care for many of the sequels to these now mainstay '80's Horror franchises. But for what it's worth, i actually liked this first Nightmare & "Hellraiser" because they were unique at the time. But whether you love the sequels or not, you have to watch them all! Them's the rules, bro!🤗💕 😅!!! Hope you got a chance to check out a Kubrick bio. Bonafide Genius!!! I also have to say these reaction channels have been my guilty lil pleasure the last 4 or 5 yrs since i first saw them pop & wanted to say your sincerety is palpable, friend, & much appreciated. The long intense😅 reactions without asking for money has been refreshing the few wks ive been here. May the "Source" be with you, bro!🙏 See ya. ✌️🌎❤️

[@jessebatres6895]

I'll definitely be checking out the sequels and Hell Raiser is one I'll need to react to as well :) I'm a fan of the Halloween franchise, but I have yet to watch Part 3. I hear fans are split on it, some love it and some hate it. As far as Kubrick, it's insane to learn about his methods and how meticulous he was. A genius for sure! And yeah right now I'm just having so much fun! Soon I'll start a Patreon, but that's when I have a little more time to make more content. Thank you so much for the kind words and support! ❤

Unfortunately some if us old folk don't do credit card/on-line biz & is another reason I'm here. Was waiting for your reply, since I forgot to mention, that either way, you definitely need to check on a p.o. box!!! It's been a while, but they used to be less than ten dollars a month. Prob around twenty nowadays? Is where you the goodies & mail from fans. See ya!

[@satyadasgumbyji8956]

@@jessebatres6895 The "problem" with "Halloween" franchise is the public never knew each installment was supposed to be whole new story. So when 3 came out, even though what had happened at end of 2 should've ended that story-line, everybody was expecting Myers so everybody, including myself, hated it at the time. Then they showed he was back for 4 so everybody returned. That's when I was pretty much done. But looking back it's a good stand alone '80's horror & actually tells the future, like, say, "They Live".

Imagine trying to sell this concept back in the conservative Reagan era: A psychopathic monster that only kills you when you sleep! No wonder most studios didn't want to touch this outlandish story. It was only New Line that had faith in Wes Craven's talent to write/direct such an original movie much less start a franchise with it. Taking creative chances is a lesson Hollywood should learn instead of doing countless remakes/sequels/prequels.

Not a fan of horror movies There's enough of that shit IRL if you're paying attention. I had a recurring nightmare where l was in a dark forrest and I was attacked by demons and torn apart.

[@jessebatres6895]

OH MAN! That's terrifying! I hope after you flew away that third time that you were able to use that same power in other nightmares going forward. I remember going Wolverine on Michael Myers in my dream once. Usually he would get me, but that one time I just tore him apart.

[@devontehuntley6274]

REWATCH??? Dang it Jesse I knew something was up when you were teaching the viewers how Nancy was the new focus after Tina died. I brushed it off as a lucky guess, but almost halfway through I noticed you have REWATCH in the title meaning your reactions here are not quite genuine as you already seen this. I should stop and watch the original viewing, but I'm gonna stick through to the end to see how you carry yourself. -_-

[@jessebatres6895]

So here's one thing right. I'll always be truthful with what's a Rewatch and what's a Reaction. How's one way I can prove this. I basically cut off a giant pipeline of what would flood in a shitload of subs and views by stating that I've watched every Rocky Film religiously and every Halloween Film (except part 3). Hell, that Rocky franchise alone (if I wanted to "fake" react to them) would've probably doubled my subscriber count in a month. But not gonna go that route. It's just something that would rub me the wrong way.

@@jessebatres6895 Okay fine. I'll eventually go back and watch your original reaction, not gonna do so at the moment. I'm not accusing you of faking anything, but disappointed this isn't your FIRST raw reaction and thus you'd remember things and not everything would come off surprising to you. Luckily some things still did so it wasn't all a bust, but I can sort of see what surprised you the first time watching this and piece together similar comments you made then on what you question or comment on here in certain scenes.
