This was a monumental moment for us metal heads back in the day! My friends and I went to see this at the theater when it came out, and they stopped the cameras as this song played during the credits. We revolted and started throwing our drinks and popcorn at the camera booth and yelling,” Turn it back on!!! You don’t stop when Dokken is playing!!!” And they turned it back on!!! Just for that moment… We had won!😂

This song was the them song of the Nightmare on Elmstreet III movie, so all the creepy footage is from the actual movie and were fit into the music video. The scene when the guitar player come out of the wall is identical in the movie except that it is Freddy that comes out of the wall. You have to watch the movie to see all the parallels made between the music video and the movie. The funny part where Freddy wakes up and says what a nightmare is funny because in the movies Freddy goes into the dream of the kids who sleeps and creates the nightmare!

I can't read these "underrated" comments anymore. Every single music related video on YT has clow... people of your kind in the comment section. Dokken sold millions of records, produced three platinum albums in a row and had a guitarist that was in every guitar-magazine at that time. Tell me how this is HIGHLY UNDERRATED. Dokken did not have albums that were filled with awesome songs, like some other bands had. Three to four solid songs on one album at the most. And Dokken split up several times.

That would have been considered weak "metal" back then. The movie which featured me ch heavier metal would be "River's Edge" with Keanu Reeves. It has Slayer and Hallows Eve playing on screen. But the first movie to have what would be considered Metal has to be the animated movie, "Heavy Metal." As it featured Black Sabbath and other similar bands.

At the time this movie was coming out, there was a competition between Dio and Dokken to write the song for this soundtrack. Dokken did this song. Ronnie James Dio and his band wrote the song Dream Evil, which was originally leading the race until the very last when the producers threw it over to Dokken instead. Dio actually had a whole album called Dream Evil. I suspect Dokken won the competition because their song was a bit more positive/upbeat, whereas Dream Evil was much more darkly themed. I think the movie would have had a totally different vibe if Dio's Dream Evil had won that competition over Dokken's Dream Warrior. I definitely recommend checking it out as it's a bit scarier because it's more closely Halloween-themed. Unlike Dream Warriors, which as Alexis noted, wasn't really scary. (I saw Dio on the Dream Evil tour. Megadeth opened. It was a very intense concert.)

I saw Nightmare 3 in the theater at age 6! It's like the first movie I remember seeing (the first I actually saw is Richard Pryor: Live On The Sunset Strip because my parents couldn't find a babysitter). You have to remember Kristen was dreaming when she walked into the house. In fact, aside from Nancy's family and Jesse's family, I don't recall anyone going into the house through all of the movies except in Freddy's Dead when Tracy, Spencer, Carlos, John Doe and Maggie go inside, but in their defense, it first appeared as a different house. Kristen was dreaming when she went in. In part 4, even her mom says "get the hell away from that house".

I remember when the VHS came out, I was so ticked off because they replaced Into the Fire, when Kristen turns on the radio to stay wake with a different song from another New Line film, Quiet Cool. They finally corrected it on the dvds. Also, strangely enough, the EP soundtrack they put out didn't have Into the Fire on it either. It was Dream Warriors, the unreleased song Back for the Attack (which became the title of their next album, but didn't include this song) and an edited version of Paris is Burning.
