A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989)

“Bon appétit, bitch!”

This is one of the sillier entries and it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, but it does give Freddy a new rich tapestry for death and destruction. Special effects are still pretty awesome for its time. All practical and make-up and matte effects and not a CGI to be found. That’s what makes me most nostalgic when I look back at these movies. Everything seemed more REAL back then, ironically. Plot has to do with...eh, who cares?

I did my best young adult impression and managed to get into the cinema while under-age to see this one on the big screen. Was this the one with the pizza?
