Nightmare on Elm Street part 3 is definitely my favorite of the series. The nightmare sequences were awesome as well as the kills. Frank Darabont's script definitely helped

[@BIadesMan]

🤣🤣🤣Favourite because your a 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

[@BIadesMan]

OG Nightmare and Freddy’s Revenge spank Dream Warriors as a scary and creepy film.Dream Warriors seems to be a fan’s favourite.🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@hq9344]

Cool. I don’t know how I missed Darabont on that. How under appreciated is he! Has his hands on some great films and series

[@divineintervention212]

Come on now. Part 2 was somewhat scary, but it wasn't good. Following your high school football coach to a S&M club and watching him get spanked to death with jump ropes. 😂 I didn't know if I was watching a horror movie or gay porn😆 Also those Rottweilers with baby heads on them is enough by itself to make it a comedy instead of a horror.

[@lutherheggs451]

Its definitely, easily the most overrated of the series and, the FX hold up even less than any other film in the franchise.

[@blakethorn1953]

Part 3 is to me the best "Nightmare on Elm Street Movie"; it just had the perfect balance of horror, fantasy, dark comedy, best look and version of Freddy, and the most memorable cast and kills. The first one is still the best "Horror movie"; in terms of scares and all of the great things that make "a horror movie a horror movie"

[@ahsokatano3310]

1 and 3 are the BEST 👍👍🏿👍🏻

[@jasonblalock4429]

Totally agree, it's my favorite of the series as well. I think it's also the one that got Freddy's quipping right. His "jokes" are just so mean-spirited, and intended to add to the psychological torture of his victims. There's no winking to the audience or pausing for a laugh; every line is aimed directly at the victim to increase their suffering. Also, seriously, the kid getting marionetted by his own tendons is easily the most gnarly death in the franchise. So nasty.

[@EmperorOfChaos]

I disliked the 4th one because they changed the actress of the girl with powers. It is a shame because this was a great film. It is fantasy/horror/comedy. I like the little creature that looks like morph.

[@Jason_Voorheessss]

[@ahsokatano3310]

1 and 3 are the best

[@mamba2242]

Although I do think this is the best follow up in the franchise, it also started the comedic Freddy with the one-liner pun kills that to me really killed the tone of these films going forward. Also, it always bothered me that they don’t bleed in the real world when they’re dying in their dreams in the sequels like they did in the original.

[@ButterCookie1984]

Agreed. Comic relief and one-liners turned Freddy from horror star to super star, making him less and less scary. And yes, the worldbuilding started to break down.

[@blacklion8133]

Agreed....it went too comedic after this. Wes Craven wrote the original script for Dream Warriors and the movie company came and changed it. It may explain why it's so well balanced.

[@donmorton4597]

Without a doubt, the best sequel. Caught in the theater in 87 and had the perfect mix of comedy and horror and that Dokken theme song, perfect.

[@ahsokatano3310]

Yes 👍

[@Vaporvice84]

Just saw it at the theater with a large crowd a few weeks ago. So much fun to see these classics on the big screen with other fans. This is not only the best sequel, but possibly the best overall entry imo.

[@pauldavis5665]

A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors and A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master were always my two favorites.

[@wtfj4462]

You liked 4? I always thought it was mid

[@crowgrl13]

I've always felt that this was not only a great sequel, but just a damn good movie overall. Not only do we get to see Patricia Arquette in one of her first roles as Kristen, but the underrated Jennifer Rubin as Taryn, Laurence Fishburne as the orderly Max, and the return of Heather Langenkamp and the late John Saxon, as Nancy Thompson and her father Lt. Thompson, respectively. It's got a great script/story, great soundtrack, and great performances. What's not to love?

[@dvt1393]

Yep, got to agree that Part Three has some of the best acting performances of the whole franchise, from a really great cast.

[@napoleonbonaparte1429]

Definitely part of the top 3.1: anoes 1, 2: anoes 3, dream warriors, 3: wes craven new nightmare.

[@TheRetroWoman80]

The score and music of the soundtrack was top notch as well.

[@MrHootiedean]

Dream Warriors is one of the most ambitious sequels of any genre and that it mostly pulls it off is a testament to its quality and execution of vision. Wes Craven created a boogey man and mythology that will last for the rest of time. Twice, with Scream. He was a genius and is truly missed. Dream Warriors is a classic.

[@jordanlindsey4403]

Seriously how iconic is the VHS box art? I always loved seeing it in the video store before I could watch them. I was always terrified of Freddy but them walking on the claws, weapons in hand told me they at least fight back. Oh and suggestion for next episode HATCHET!!!!!

*I LOVE parts 1, 2 and 3 all equally* Part 2 is under rated as hell, if it's been awhile since you've watched it give it another shot!

[@vesuvianvillain]

2 is definitely where Freddy looks the scariest. The pool party scene his eyes are black and demonic, it’s definitely worth seeing just for the makeup but there’s a lot going on in the movie that makes it worth seeing.

Great sequel. I just wanna know how they explained away the fact that Kincaid was found in an office with 3 dead people. Remember Kincaid, Nancy, Taryn, & Will were together in that office when Kirsten brought them into her dream.

[@NorthWalesKid]

Yes it is, the opening scene where Freddy is chasing them in slo mo is terrifying. But the second film is very very scary. The opening scene on the bus and the pool party scene are very very good

[@dvt1393]

Totally agree. I have always felt that Part 2 was far too hated and looked down on. I'm glad to see that people are finally waking up to how great it is. That being said, Part 3 is definitely my favorite.

[@ronfroehlich4697]

Best for certain. Part two is definitely the creepiest of the franchise; criminally underrated.

[@themadlad8540]

Ya that is one of my earliest memories watching that when it came out on hbo.

[@EmperorOfChaos]

Part 2 made little to why Freddy wanted a human body but it was a great film.

[@crazyfun5150]

Part 3 is one of if not my favorite part of the series. The story is so well done and it's at a point where Freddy is still scary yet is starting to show his funny side. It's a part I find myself rewatching more than others.

[@hshawn00]

What can I say that hasn't already been said, this movie is an absolute classic. I've been listening to Dokken's We're the Dream Warriors all last week. I remember the first time I saw the trailer for this movie. I went wild and my mom thought I was crazy. Lol! I didn't get to see it at the theater because I was too young but I saw it on video tape. I love Patricia Arquette as Christian. I even loved Tuesday Night's version as well. It broke my heart to have Nancy die but it made the story even more powerful! Great cast, characters, actors, direction, music, special effects, and etc! GREAT!!! GREAT!!!! GREAT!!!!

Dream Warriors is the best. I liked how they all took advantage of the dream world and use their imagination to gain super powers to fight Freddy. Also, the soundtrack from the band Dokken goes well for the intro.

[@fleshtrashheat]

I've gone back and forth with this one so much over the years. But there's just so much to like about part 3.

[@the_petty_crocker]

Dream Warriors really showcased the conceit of Freddy being a collective unconscious unto himself, which was a terrific idea. That the kids all knew him but were unknown to each other upped the stakes and conveyed Freddy as far more powerful than before. I also really like the dynamic of the kids, and I enjoy Nancy being akin to a big sister. She became for them the adult who listened, as none did for her. That said, half of the characters weren't really developed enough for me to care too much about them. Growing up, I always believed Kristen was my favorite, then I realized I just like Patricia Arquette. After Nancy, Alice is my favorite in the series, and I think she's Nancy's true legacy.

[@mikaross4671]

I absolutely love the Dream warriors!! it combines both the horror and dark comedy of Freddy Krueger that I love. You also cant deny that 80s soundtrack.

I think a nightmare on elm street 3 is the best nightmare on elm street sequel. I think dream warrior's is a great horror film. I also love how they did the movie and the story I feel is great as well. I really like the kill's in dream warrior's and I think there unique and different. I think the original nightmare on elm street and a nightmare on elm street 3 are the best film's in the series.

[@john_blues]

"This is where he takes us." So creepy and unsettling.

[@TheRetroWoman80]

Indeed. It was more unsettling that Kristen ran around with a fake life-sized doll person, or whatever, whose hair looked nothing like that child actor who spoke that line🤣🤣

[@Liam-ly8rv]

I really enjoyed Dream Warriors although I missed the darker Freddy of the first two that was much more sadistic as you couldn't see him and he didn't joke. He just did what he did without giving the audience any reasoning or relief from the torment he was applying to his victims. I don't think we need another Elm St. Dream Warriors film. Its been done and done really well. It would just fuck it up. If we are going to get another Elm St. lets get something dark/evil and monstrous that goes somewhere the others haven't.

[@StuntMan_Marq]

I like Dream Warriors but a part of me has always wondered what it would've been like had they kept all the really dark Freddy dialogue that the Craven/Wagner script had in it. Having read their version of the script I can't help but question why it wasn't used. I remember Chuck Russell and various other people at New Line say in the Never Sleep Again doc that Freddy was just too dark. But shouldn't he be dark? It is a horror movie after all. I'm not saying they should've changed anything about the narrative or character actions from the Darabont/Russell rewrite but them changing Freddy's dialogue and character tone just opened the door for more and more ridiculous humor in future sequels. Robert is great nonetheless but I would've loved it if Freddy had actually grown to be more evil as the Franchise went on just because it seemed like a much more natural character progression for him. I'm not saying I'm right but it's just my opinion. Btw, Tyler, you did an awesome job with this one! Maybe on the next episode you could cover Maniac, The Prowler or Madman.

[@blakethorn1953]

the script is online and there have been some KZbinrs have done long scene by scene reviews of it. It is very weird, very dark and gory, but seemed very confusing and really "broke the rules of the series". Going back and forth in and out of the dream world, there was this strange house where Freddy was born that needed to burned which Officer Thompson is hunting down. Seems like the budget would of been insane for the time to film. would be interesting if they did an animated version or something following that script.

[@VinnieRattolle]

I haven't read it in 20 years so I'm very fuzzy on the details, but I remember thinking that it would've worked as a novel, but it was absolutely unfilmable with '80s FX.

[@IsraelBenitez-ev7mj]

I always thought a HUGE reason why Dream Warriors is the best, is because in the 1st film Freddy is killing people, same with Freddy's Revenge, but in Dream Warriors Freddy isn't just killing people but killing them according to their fears...Dream Master and Dream child did this too but nowhere near as well...I've seen this movie a thousand times and just realized like last year that because Joey is a mute that's why that Freddy nurse straps him down with tongues...that is CRAZY detail in a horror film, every jab and every kill is directly correlated with the teenagers fears, even with Freddy dealing with Kirsten's issue with her mom bringing drunken boyfriends around and as I said, Dream Warriors is the only film in the series to NAIL THAT

[@Spooky_515]

I think a streaming service should pick up the NOES franchise and start with a season featuring 10-12 episodes showing how each of dream warriors survive Freddy long enough to end up in the Asylum. Each episode revolves around one of the Dream Warriors and their story of survival or one of the remaining elm st kids and how Freddy claims their soul and as he claims more souls we would see him change as his powers grow. Starting out being the dark Freddy seen in 1&2. Ending with the sarcastic maniac that savors the moment by showing off his new power. Season one ends with Kirstin being committed in the asylum. Instead of finishing up the dream warriors story during season 2 they make a 90-120 minute movie. That’s basically a season finale on steroids. No filler bs or wasted effort. As long as you got Robert Englund as FK or someone that can really do justice to the character it would work. Especially with said format
