    Parts 1 and 3 were my favorite movies in the series. I thought the comedic direction the series took in some of the sequels was alright, but Freddy's Dead took it way over the top - horrible movie that made a complete joke out of Freddy. I do sometimes wonder how the series would have progressed if they kept the dark scary Freddy of the original throughout the entire series - probably would have been better.

    Cool

    I think if they kept it strictly dark/scary, the series would have much more credibility and a bigger fanbase.

    Remake you say? I've not heard of this.

    I can't believe Talalay did what she did, after working on the majority of the films. She got her chance to direct one and made it a looney tunes sketch. :/

    I really wish New Line used Peter Jacksons script, it seemed like a pretty cool idea, plus, being early Jackson it would have been rather violent. Bastards.

    I love the NOES series! My brother had me watch the first film when I was 12 or 13 and it was one of the only films to leave me shaken after watching it. The first will always be my favorite. The second is okay, but I never really liked the story. The third is great. The fourth is decent. Part five is okay, and I find part 6 hilarious, even if it did turn Freddy into a bit of a joke. I also agree that New Nightmare brought the series back around to where it started, making Freddy dark and scary again. Freddy Vs Jason was a lot of fun as well.

    As for the remake, ugh! I thought it was okay at first when I saw it in theaters, but after a couple rewatches, I've grown to dislike it. Jackie Earle Haley did a good job as Freddy, capturing many of Robert's mannerisms. (He'll never be as good as Englund, of course.) I HATED the new Nancy! Everything about her was annoying. She had no sense of self, dressed like crap, couldn't seem to do anything to save herself, and relied on Quentin to do practically everything. She is an insult to the original Nancy. I liked the updated version of Tina in Katie Cassidy's Chris, and I loved Quentin (but I love the actor that plays him, so I may be a little biased.) The ripoff of FvJ at the end really pissed me off. It's like, seriously? You don't expect the fans to notice that?

    Reading your review, you mentioned a couple things that I hadn't thought of, such as the kid being killed on his webcam. I never wondered who ended up posting that video to his blog. I can't believe I missed that. Also, how insignificant the mother was in the remake. I'm in agreement with most of it, though I'd rate it a little higher.

    I think the first NOES was the scariest, though part 4 was the one i enjoyed the most. Though not as scary as the first, the film's dream sequences and special effect were the best so far. I also liked the songs on the soundtrack. The part where Freddy comes back to life, the waterbed scene and the scene with the pizza were the standouts.

    Part five and six were disappointments. In Freddy's Dead, the scene where Freddy's father was beating him was hard to take seriously with that awful wig his father was wearing.

    WE'RE THE DREAM WARRIORS!

    First-good
    Second-eh
    Third-I like it
    Fourth-meh
    Fifth-eh
    Sixth-never watching it again
    Seventh-it's okay
    Eighth-eh
    Remake-Didn't care for it the one time I saw it

    I wish Freddy had gotten a better line up of movies, or at least less comedy. He'd probably be my favorite slasher villain if all the movies were like the first two. The glove, the hat, the sweater, Freddy Krueger is just alright with me.

    Fan made film coming up 'Son of a Hundred Maniacs' I haven't watched the trailer but here it is;



    I think it's safe to say it'll be better than that remake though.

    I just watched it. They don't really show much, I don't see why they released this. It's alright, but it doesn't really show enough to get an opinion.

    It look's like it may be a prequel, before he get's caught and burned alive. Like you said though, they don't show too much.

    You couldn't leave your beloved ultimate NOES thread to just one forum.

    You should center the posters and Youtube videos as it would look better.

    They're both rotten.

    I watched 'The Dream Child' again recently. It was my first viewing of it in donkey's years. While it wasn't quite as bad as I remembered it to be it's still one of the dullest and most nonsensical entries in the series.

    Go fuck yourself.

    And really the only thing that drags down 5 is the comic scene and the cut deaths. Some of the uncut versions are actually flinch worthy. Watching that bitch get forced to eat herself makes me horny. Part 5 is so underrated. Damn you writers strike.

    That comic book kill is a terrible scene. Yeah, the Gretta set-piece is actually very good. 5 isn't too bad as it has some good ideas and interesting themes but the overall execution is lackluster and convoluted. At least it's better than 6 and the remake.
