Film Theory: How To Beat Freddy Krueger! (A Nightmare on Elm Street) w/ Dead Meat

[@opal_bat1183]

i would like to take a second to thank matpat for everything, i have been with you for as long as i can remember, and as i grow older i notice that some things he has talked about are the things that i have learned about in my math and science class, i now understand some of the things that he is talking about, and he has helped me grow as a learner. before, i struggled to pay attention in classes because of my ADHD, but now i realize how interesting science could actually be, and matpat, if you are reading this i want you to know that you have been my role model, and we all love you! thank you for helping me i the times i really needed it. i am also adding that 2 months ago i learned from my friend about rem and i understand everything you are talking about

[@christopher4249]

I think the meaning of a nightmare on elm street is of parents worst fears about a stranger a man an unexplainable demon entity or force of nature that either human or supernatural is attacking their kids with in their subconscious fears and flaws about themselves and are in the end powerless to stop him. Which is the embodiment of hate, revenge, and evil itself taking everything from humans that believe that things like depression, mental issues and trauma are the real reason behind their problems. Nightmare on Elm Streets meaning imo is about the terrifying truth of life that humans are scared to face which is “The Unexplainable” and the scary road we all ride on which is fate and how there’s things in life that just happen without meaning, remorse or reasoning.

Technically if Freddy is attacking people in *their* dreams, the victims should be able to control their own dreams as soon as they realize they are dreaming.

[@Snakepit_Media]

Technically, the only way to actually control dreams is if you are aware its a dream. Lucid dreaming, the state of knowing you're in a dream and controlling said dream can be quite hard. If you're terrified and not in a lucid state I'd sayit would be extremely difficult to achieve lucid dreaming if you're occupied with being terrified of a dream based murderer.

[@skinnyboikaden2688]

Freddy has power over their dreams leaving them powerless against him

[@GXShattering]

T Herr The kids tried to do this in the third movie, and it didn’t end happy.

[@watertommyz]

Not that easy. Also, dreams in Elm St act more as an alternate reality souls go when people dream. There is a huge connection between dreams and the afterlife in the movies that people tend to forget.

[@Snittty]

Yeah but with that same logic you would realise your dreaming, get scared and wake up, I'm pretty sure (don't quote me) but I'm pretty sure if your Dream is in lucid state, any state of fear will wake you up

[@obedreyes7737]

So basically how they did it in fredy vs jason where they treated fredy like a disease, seperated the ones affected by him and dosed those kids with drugs to prevent them from dreaming till he eventually disappears.

[@hlliexe]

Yupp pretty much. So we already knew how to beat him without this theory. Not surprised thou.

[@grimtrix]

Seriously! i was like... this is the exact plot of FvJ. He didnt even bother to mention that this only works if EVERYONE takes the drugs and stops dreaming... because Freddy can still posses others and come after you.

[@jeremylemings]

Exactly. MAOI for those just starting to be affected, adding in Acetylcholine blockers and medically induced comas for those more troubled but not dead yet.

[@obedreyes7737]

@PoppinHeadz03 that's because he was loose again and regain power due to people remembering him. Remember in the movie the town people didnt even want to mention his name. That's the main reason he even brought Jason back. Was to trick people and reminding him of what he is capable of doing.

[@obedreyes7737]

@PoppinHeadz03 that's why they put the ones that couldn't stop dreaming in a coma my friend ;) remember? Before fredy got into the guys body to dispose of the drugs to stop dreaming. rewatch the film.. I'm surprise he didnt comment at all about it.

[@randommandude5450]

The James cameo is probably the best i’ve seen in a while. Mainly because his lines feel more like James actually wrote them, unlike other youtube featurships. Props you both of ya!

MatPat's theory reminds me of the in-universe dream suppression drug Hypnocil, which was introduced in the NoES 3:Dream Warriors! Though I don't know if the films clarify, it works like the real-life drugs MatPat was referring to! In the NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET comics by AVATAR PRESS, the adults are literally drugging the town's teenagers with hypnocil to ensure Freddy can't attack the town's teenagers in their dreams & for the most part its shown to be effective!

The common theme of each of these movies is that the kids believe in him, the adults don't. Freddy kills the kids, the ones who are scared, easily manipulated and those whom are on quite troubled times. And time and time again, what actually beats him is positive thinking. Where he grows strong is the fear that lingers in your doubt. The thought of him existing is that fear. And matpat, you just gave him power by bringing him up again.

Don't mess with the brain, mess with your dreams. Lucid dreaming. Imagine the whole town training to beat Freddy at his own game. This is nightmares we're talking about, not dreams. I consider them a separate beast. For me dreams come and go pretty easily, it's normal brain function. Nightmares seem to be connected directly to our fears, based on what I've experienced. I identified signs in repeated nightmares and worked on my self image. Now that I don't care what people think of me I have like two nightmares a year. Either new fears with new clues that I write in my journal or recycled nightmares that I've 'played' before and know how to solve. It's pretty fascinating actually.
