A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master Reviews
October 5, 2018
"A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master" is by far the best of the series, a superior horror picture that balances wit and gore with imagination and intelligence.

The lesser of the "Nightmare" sequels, but serviceable more surreal one nevertheless...

Surprisingly watchable for the third sequel and despite its general predictability it's entertainingly inventive.

Robert Englund, receiving star billing for the first time, is delightful in his frequent incarnations as Freddy, delivering his gag lines with relish and making the grisly proceedings funny.

Not counting 1994's Wes Craven's New Nightmare, it's superior to all the other later sequels in the series.

Bottomless grab-bag from the 80s TV subconscious, riffing on Jaws, Karate Kid, and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, with a palette that would make Joel Schumacher queasy
