Ive seen them all and love the first one and the third one best, and I like we Cravens new nightmare. They where scarey for their time, I can't imagine anyone who went to the cinema to see it when it first came out not finding it shocking and scarey, however now they don't seem that frightening. what do people think of Jason verses Freddy? S
I think Freddy vs. Jason was more like a comedy then a horror movie, but I had a crush on Freddy Krueger since I was five, so I saw the movie like ten more times...
A Nightmare on Elm Street is one of my favorite horror movies. It's an influential classic of the genre, perhaps the first philosophical horror film. Wes Craven, being a former college professor, is the king of brainy horror. It's also noteworthy as Johnny Depp's first film.
Well its definatly the best film in the series. I used to like these alot. The first is pretty good though. I dont care for the rest anymore though.
Since about the time I finished high school, I have a really hard time being scared by movies at all. I guess I'm too aware of the fiction of it, and it doesn't get to me. But when Nightmare on Elm Street came out, yeah, I think I was scared by it. Nowadays, no. Plus, somehow I've managed to abandon or lose the ability to get startled. It's kind of funny and fun, actually. You could drop a huge dictionary onto the floor right behind me and all I'll do is calmly turn around to see what happened. No adrenaline rush, no flinch or exclamation. I'd probably be a good crisis-management agent of some sort... maybe bomb disposal dude. Blue skies, -
i'm the same, i've kinda grown up with horror movies. my parents were never strict when it came to age restrictions, my dad allowed us to watch horror movies to show that fiction is just imagination & imagination is not to be feared. i have two older sisters (one 8 years older & one 6 years older than me), so when they looked after us my parents allowed us to watch horror movies. i was born the year a nightmare on elm st was released, so didnt watch it untill i was about 5. it didnt scare me, i can remember the first horror movie that actually scared me, 1990, i was 6y/o & my brother was 3y/o, the film was stephen kings IT. to this day i cant stand clowns, it really scared me & my bro, we wouldnt go in the bathroom without each other. the only other film thats actually scared me (but no-where near as much as IT) was scream, after i'd watched it a few times it just didnt scare me. as for the Jason V's freddy, i thought it was crap, not scary at all. i've got all of the freddy films (i'm a huge johnny depp fan & have all his films), & my favourite has to be freddys dead the final nightmare, i still have the 3d glasses!
Freddy vs. Jason....yeah, that was pure comedy with a little blood if you ask me... but, i love love love all the elm street movies.....i've seen them all. If i was watching them alone, i'd find them scary, but since i usually watch them with other people, they never really creep me out.
that movie was horrible (Nightmere on elm st.) My favorite nightmere movie is nightmere before x-mas!
I liked watching nightmare on elm street, but I have never been scared by it. It just insn't scary to me, I dunno. BTW Nightmare before x-mas was an awesome, awesome movie.
I loved all the freddy movies! I grew up watching them. They are awesome. Now Freddy vs. Jason makes me laugh! What's up wid that?
