        I love the Freddy movies, but New Nightmare is the only one the made me scared even AFTER watching them.

        To this day.

        And ill still rewatch it because its so amazing.

          My only complaint is that it indulges in some of the old Freddy cartoonish weirdness (the big fake Freddy head and long tongue) but otherwise it’s just such a mature evolution of the whole franchise. It’s really one of my favorite trashy slashers.
