Once again the Elm Street sequels have failed to live up to the oringnal one. This is a ok movie full of good scares, and some good wisecracks by yours truely Freddy Krueger. But still the first Elm Street movie is still the best, the sequels are ok.

Again this just isn't as good as the first one. I like these movies don't get me wrong, but the first is the best because they didn't know who it was killing people in their sleep, making it a bit more suspenseful. An ok movie, but the the first one will always be the best.
I give A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 5: The Dream Child: 2 stars
