Reviews for A Nightmare on Elm Street 2 - Freddy's Revenge
As is the prevalent case with most sequels, the film is inferior to its predecessor. It is still very, very good, however, more so than most viewers give it credit for.

A work of high camp, even if Freddy himself is often reduced to an annoying nocturnal emission that will inevitably ruin a pool party.

Although Jesse and Lisa are granted some much-needed time to get it on, he and the film would appear in unison in that they're still waiting to come out of the closet.

I must give credit where it's due: this is pretty unique in its stupidity.

The second film of the series departs from the storyline dramatically, leaving the impression that it doesn't fit into the series.
