About
If you want horror that turns the franchise into something more personal and ominous, this may hit the right nerve; Not for you if you prefer the goofier sequels or want a more straightforward slasher like Wishmaster or Scream 2.
Pros: dark, tense atmosphere; clever meta premise; Freddy feels deadlier | Cons: some viewers find it dull; divisive violence; mixed opinions on look
