imagine being murdered by a mf and right before you die he says some shitty one-liner like "no pain no gain" i would come back to life just to call him a nerd and shove him into a locker
amayaJul 8, 2020i wanna see kristen from dream warriors battle it out with kristen from the dream master to see who would win
lola gumballAug 30, 2019This used to be my least favorite entry of the franchise, but it has really really grown on me over the years and I think I’ve finally come to fully appreciate it for all its MTV era aesthetic. Full honesty, ive always been a die hard F13 loyalist so this entire series has…

Not really doing anything the previous one didn't do better with regard to the group therapy through horror fantasy images/setpieces but at the very least there's an attempt at characters (unlike where I am at this point in the Friday the 13th movies lol) and even though…
Josh LewisMay 3, 2023The rapid change from spooky Freddy to spooky funny Freddy worked well here. The tension sometimes suffers from the new trend, but this is compensate by good ideas and a tendency towards more brutality.
kat🕷Oct 13, 2021The roach motel scene is still just one of the most insane things ever. From concept to pulling it off practically on screen. Like it just is. Geeez. Also more bubbly pop songs in horror UNironically? Yes please. That's the 80s trend I want.

lex 👻Oct 5, 2022Fuera de Serie: Primetime with Freddy! W/ Clarkito's Bray Directed by Renny Harlin. Noooooooooo! Really? I never would have noticed! Sarcasm aside, this fourth installment feels like a direct continuation of the previous one. As in Kill Bill, where this one film…
Rafael "Mister Movie" JovineJul 31, 2017despite some super dumb plot issues and callous attitude toward most of its loveable characters...the ridiculous deaths are some of my favorites of the series, it looks stunning, and the idea that you can draw upon friendship and past trauma/abuse to gain the strength to…

- Sabrina Bondi dislikedA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master
The special effects continue to advance, particularly with a creative waterbed sequence, a hilarious human-meatball snack, and increased levels of bloodshed.
Superbad is "meh" onA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream MasterIf my dad hadn’t gotten me into these when I was younger this would be a thumbs down
GENAI lovedA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream MasterBOOOOO IDC IF THAT CAR SCRAPYARD WAS ONE OF THE COOLEST SETS OF THE FRANCHISE AND THE ASTHMA SCENE WAS SUPER CREATIVE! KILLING THE ONLY BLACK PEOPLE FROM EACH FRIEND GROUP FIRST IS SO CORNY!!! I do actually really like the muted vibe and kills of this one. It’s so much spookier.
- Tiger Z is "meh" onA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master
This series must really need Wes Craven to carry its back because Jesus Christ. There was no point in making this movie and I struggled watching thru the whole thing just to see Freddy get killed by a freaking mirror. Not very memorable, acting was eh 5/10 Fav Scene - Soul Food
Jay dislikedA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream MasterProbably a good movie to watch while high
Chief Saqif dislikedA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Masterfoo just merked everyone and that’s it
- Amya B is "meh" onA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master
kills solid characters within the first few minutes 🤣 just to replace them with some of the most underdeveloped ones i have ever seen…not bad just cheesy and a bit boring…suffered from the “trendy” effect many 80s films had that made them SEEM 80s and not as timeless
MovieDaddy likedA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream MasterUncle Freddy is back for more slapsticky kills and punchlines galore. This is more the quintessential Krueger that people associate the franchise with, trading the line of comedy laced horror. The kills are amusing but become less actually horrific. Fun, but “scary.”
anton chigurh is "meh" onA Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream MasterThis movie didn’t live up to the same standard as the third one. Killing off most of the previous characters was bad enough, but the main character Alice isn’t interesting enough to be the lead of the movie. Aside from Freddy’s screen time this movie fell flat.

Metacritic
Harlin's arsenal of conceits and visual effects--pirouetting overhead angles, dancing trigonometry formulas, a pizza flavored with tiny human heads, a lot of fancy play with a water bed, and much, much more--keeps it consistently watchable and inventive.
