Reviews for Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare
The Final Nightmare marks an end to Freddy's wisecracking ways. This surrealistic nightmare fits the style perfectly, but sometimes lacks in imagination.
It makes less sense than any preceding Nightmare film...although it's so out-and-out crazy that it's at least a little bit more entertaining than some of them
Not the worst of the series, but far from the best -- and hardly the 'Final' anything.
Full of bluster and gimmickry. Does anyone involved even remember the original movie?
