Willplays T @RT74688704 Apr 25 Not too bad, solid sequel that goes into full James Bond. My only take aways is that this is where the franchise would start to take its turn for the worst and hit straight into action-territory rather than genuine horror and suspense that made the first 3 films so great. That’s not to say it’s got a solid cast and decent effects for its made-for-tv style, and if I’m ever in the mood for a comedic super villain that is Freddy Krueger in the later sequels I’d for sure pick this film in a heartbeat. Not bad but easily the worst of the first four films.

Despite the replacement of Part 3’s co-star Patricia Arquette with Tuesday Knight as Kristen Parker, Knight is more than up to the task of making us feel sympathy for her character and fills her shoes well enough. The special effects are top-notch, of the best in the series, and Dream Master features some stellar sequences. The lore builds upon itself nicely overall and Dream Master isn’t afraid to take risks with both character development and disposal. This is easily a top 3 entry in this slasher series.

However, in Nightmare 4, we see Kristen miserably fail with her "mind over matter" and meditation-style dream control. But I must say the dream sequences in this movie are way more visually intense. However, I still cannot understand the benefits of a waterbed, no matter how people try to convince me.

Often referred to as the MTV Freddy film (?) the story continues where the Dream Warriors left off. There isn’t much of a plot and I’m pretty sure the script was written as they went along but outstanding dream/kill sequences entertain and delight. Robert Englund shines here as Freddy Krueger at his best/worst. See more Stanny R @StannyMC Mar 6 The Dream Master is so far my least favourite entry into the Elm Street franchise. The plot & lore gets thinner as does the quality. Found the ending to be edging towards ridiculousness. Some crazy effects going off but they unfortunately don’t save what is otherwise an underwhelming film. See more Read all reviews
