1991 Directed by Rachel Talalay
Just when you thought it was safe to sleep, Freddy Krueger returns in this sixth installment of the Nightmare on Elm Street films, as psychologist Maggie Burroughs, tormented by recurring nightmares, meets a patient with the same horrific dreams. Their quest for answers leads to a certain house on Elm Street -- where the nightmares become reality.

“Yeah, well, the map says we’re FUCKED!”
Ya know, I used to think The Final Nightmare was terrible... I was one of the many people that thought it was a garbage trash fire of a movie but I was so wrong. Now, though? I kinda love this bizarre, fresh take surreal John waters episode of Twin Peaks and all of its weirdo 90’s choices and oddities.
Lisa Zane, Lezlie Deane, and Yaphet Kotto are all super sold plus we get a little more mythos/Lore which I’m always a sucker for. I dig the empty elm street atmosfear, the addition of more adult characters, the amazing intro that I still think about at least once a week, and a supposed ending to…
Starting with a dream-within-a-dream that lasts for 8 minutes, already demonstrating the absurd humor and surrealism have increased to the extreme, with the dream sequence ending with a cartoonish cut-out, all after an opening title card explaining a town without children, this '90s acid trip with Freddy is wild. Only in the late-night MTV era could kills like the video game kill happen. I enjoy it for the time capsule it is; and, also, because I love surrealist humor and how dark the Kathryn Krueger arc can get.
I also just love off-the-rail sequels, in general, like: Friday the 13th part VII: The New Blood, Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation, Curse of Michael Myers, and Freddy's Dead. The A…
Nach dem Rewatch ist vor dem Rewatch?
Sonst ein Zeitgenosse der sich sehr viel Mühe gibt, die „richtigen“ Film frei nach seinem Geschmack um Horror, Science-Fiction, Historyfilmen mit ihren ganzen Konsorten, Thrillern und Actionfilmen im Setting der Zukunft sowie Western und einigen wenigen sich glücklich schätzen könnenden Dramen ebenso darunter zählend Komödien und Liebesschmonzen auszusuchen, tauchen immer wieder diese einen Graupen auf, die sich hervorragend für eine Review währenddessen machen. Der sechste Streich von der „A Nightmare on Elm Street“, ist wohl das Paradebeispiel für eben dies.
„Freddy’s Finale – Nightmare on Elm Street 6“ ist die 90er Version eines durch und durch von den 80ern geprägten Horrorfilmreihe ohne dessen Klarlack oder Patina. Frei nach der Popkultur Made in 90s,…
I’m not sure I would have given this quite as high a rating when it first came out, but damn if it isn’t a movie that somehow gets better with time even if it has a fair share of faults. The Freddy makeup in this one isn’t the best, but Robert Englund still owns the role with unabashed glory. I love Lisa Zane in a NOES moviemand I can’t even tell you why. I just know that it’s the right choice.
I never got a chance to see this in 3D but i guarantee this would have been just as popular with or without that trick. I guess the important thing is that this didn't actually end the franchise and hopefully we will continue to get more movies even if they are continuations of the remake. Studio execs these days just don’t seem to know how to handle iconic franchises and that’s a real shame.
not even sure what's left to say about these anymore. the dream concept means the imagery and production design of even the worst one of these is a bit less boring to watch than a bad slasher but there's very little even attempt at horror at this point (the only sequence that kinda worked for me was the flashback sequence) and is tonally closer to like an offbeat family comedy which might go over better if freddy worked a little harder on his tight five.

freddy hits johnny depp in the face with a frying pan, becomes a gamer then tries to blame his murderous tendencies on his daddy issues. yup 5 stars
You can't scare me anymore.

The seeds of disaster first popped up in possibly the franchise's best sequel in Part 3: Dream Warriors. With each subsequent film the dream sequences became sillier while the one liners became lamer. As a fan you could see the derailment coming as each sequel seemed to speed even faster towards it. Freddy's Dead is the culmination of that as we finally get the complete train wreck that everyone could see coming, but no one seemed to be able to avoid.
Rachel Talalay makes her directorial debut here, and I almost feel bad saying anything bad about her as she's worked on every single Nightmare on Elm Street film since the 1984 original, but…

Roseanne Barr and Tom Arnold were like the Kardashians of my time.
I understand that this movie is making a comeback among the fans and my daughter ended up liking it. I'm still not fully on board. There are some really fun parts like the carnival without children but mostly there are just some memorable moments that aren't iconic. I don't hate this film I just don't think it's that good. It feels more fun to talk about than to actually watch. Still, I love all my children.
I’ve come around on this crazy John waters episode of twin peaks so much. I love this movie and all of its whack surreal oddities and creepy af lore.
Kill count taken from a fan site:
1. Carlos Rodriguez - Hearing magnified, head exploded by sound of bladed glove scratching chalkboard
2. Spencer Lewis - Knocked down stairs into bottomless pit
3. John Doe - Fell from sky, impaled on bed spikes
4. Freddy Krueger - Pinned to wall/crate with various weapons, bladed glove in stomach, blown up by pipe bomb

Ja, das war die vorabwinkende Bruchlandung.
Nebst schlechten Schauspielern und einer noch schlechteren Darbietung, haben wir Effekte aus den 90ern als ein Produkt der 90ern in Schlecht. Herrschte bei den vorherigen Werken der Charme aus den 80ern, dementsprechend sahen die Kulissen aus die genau das lieferten was gewünscht wurde, zeigten sich die Morde und der Weg dorthin als das ausleben der übersprudelnden eigenen Fantasie, wird sich hier im Greenscreen ausgetobt die wohl zu den schlechtesten Effekten gehören, die ich je zu Gesicht bekam.

Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991)
The Elm Street series comes to it's "final" conclusion, which contrary to it's tagline, also happens to be the absolute worst.
Oh dear though, I thought The Dream Child was pretty fucking weak, but I'd say Freddy's Dead easily takes the cake as the absolute nadir of the series. What could have been a return to the gritty terror of the original is an overly-humorous mess loaded with illogical writing decisions and a terribly-placed 3D gimmick. The most I can say about this one is that it paved the way for New Nightmare, but that's as much credit as I'll give it.
Many years after…
