About this movie

Did you ever see a dream stalking . . .? The kids on Elm Street have. For five years, a walking nightmare named Freddy Krueger has haunted their sleep--seeking revenge for the horribly disfiguring death he suffered at the hands of the children's parents. Now, through the dreams of an unborn child, Freddy has resurrected himself . . . and he's looking for new victims in A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child. Starring Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger ("Urban Legend," "The Mangler") and Lisa Wilcox ("Black Friday").

Now this one here is the WORST installment of the ENTIRE Nightmare on elm street franchise. The plot was stupid, the kills were lame, only 3 people died, and everything else was ridiculous. Horrible sequel even Part 6 is better than this one. I wouldn't recommend. Very disappointing sequel.

Eh. I didn't know how I felt about this one. Considering how weird it is and is confusing. Watch it if you wish but it's not a good sequel. I felt it could've been better. However 1-4 was great.

The plot was pretty good and had great potential, but it seemed too rushed. I liked the gothic scenery and learning Amanda Kruger's background and Freddy's birth.
