Review of A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) by P M — 13 Sep 2012
A classic of the slasher genre, introducing the world to Freddy Kruger, the knife-glove-wielding, burnt-alive sex offender, who has come back to kill teens in dreams, and to Wes Craven (known to smaller audiences for several, earlier low-budget, indie films).
Also, Johnny Depp's earliest movie role.
