Okay...

Well, I hate to spoil the movie for you but Freddy dies in this one. For what should've have been a grand finale to the series ends up only okay at best. The body count is low and there is just general goofiness all around. Freddy is a joker, and is not threatening at all. I suppose this makes some sense, because with all the power Freddy had it would only take a matter of time before he got so cynical in his killings. Just getting the job done, and having a good laugh while at it.Since the series has been such a success, there actually is a budget on this and there's good Special Effects. But even with all the effects, it'll be the clever camera tricks that will have you thinking "how'd they do that?" There are only 3 deaths but they are pretty good and creative ones at least. In part 5 a kid is sucked into a comic book, in this one a kid is sucked into a video game. The results of this are way better than in part 5.Then there's the plot- which is stupid. But at this point in the Nightmare On Elm Street series, you can't expect anything good. It's reached the point of campiness and for some reason I just went with it in Freddy's Dead. It's a goofy, somewhat enjoyable flick that I'm sort of on the fence about. It's not scary at all but it will keep you entertained, unlike Parts 2 and 5.My Rating: 5/10

They saved the worst for last

Freddy is back again in his worst movie from the original series. They waited six movies until finally telling Freddy's full backstory. At his death, he was approached by three dream demons who gave him his powers. The CGI on these things is so ugly looking. This film was 3-D and it's easy to tell how these ugly things stand out so well. They were trying to cram way too much backstory in the film and it truly makes you wonder why this wasn't spread out. Freddy's kills are the goofiest in the entire series. It's hard to say he's really weakened because he still gets rid of his victims well.I have no idea why this movie would depower Freddy. The characters do absolutely nothing out of the ordinary to beat him. The film is needlessly rushed and there's so much going on at the end that a lot of the movie just seems like filler. He does come back in "Freddy Vs. Jason" so this is once again a misleading title. It's just a dumb pointless movie and even more so than most slasher films. It shouldn't please any fan but at least it's not as bad as the remake. It's a stupid poorly paced film and it makes you realize why most people don't like slasher films. *1/2
