Description

The original film in the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise is among the best reviewed movies in the slasher genre. The sequel, not so much. But today we are just focusing on what the movie does well! 

Robert Englund under the iconic makeup is always a good thing, and the movie uses its modest budget wisely with a key transformation sequence. And thanks in large part to the movie's lead, Mark Patton, the film has a strong following in the LGBTQ+ horror community.
