A Nightmare On Elm Street
Blueprint:
My vote goes to the First ELm Street Movie best in the series ... Last 2 don't even bother watching... ;D
ShoothimNow:
Wes Cravens New Nightmare... was still Robert England, which is why I think it should be there as well? They even reference the other movies in it? How can you have Freddy VS Jason and not New Nightmare? Lol?
BudgetGameCases:
Wow, I thought New Nightmare was a great part of the series!
Anyone here see the NOES documentary? Great stuff!

Because New Nightmare is a movie ABOUT the movies... It has nothing to do with the story line of the series. Freddy V Jason is the sequel to Freddy's Dead and Jason Goes to Hell. They even show clips from ALL the Nightmare movies in the intro of freddy v jason... but not New Nightmare because it is not canon to the series.
KaiserWAVE:
I voted for 4. I like the wisecracking Freddy more than the scary one. I think the one liners (welcome to prime time, bitch ;) ) really set him apart from the other hall of famers (Jason, Michael) even more than the "kills you in your dreams"-bit.
I voted 4 because it has my favourite kill in the series (the chick that gets her arms bend and broken with the dumbell, turns into a cockroach and gets squashed).
Never played the game. Just saw the AVGN video of it. But since I'm a huge horror fan, too, I plan on getting all the slasher games (Nightmare, Halloween, Friday 13th, TCM) but just for display purposes.
Also a short comment on "nobody besides Englund can play Freddy". I think Jackie Earle Haley did a great job. Of course nobody can beat Englund but Jackie pulled off his version of Freddy pretty good considering the material he had to work with. He didn't go the easy route trying to do an Englund impression.
