Reviews for A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 - The Dream Master
Top CriticNot counting 1994's Wes Craven's New Nightmare, it's superior to all the other later sequels in the series.

As the series drags on, the inventiveness of murders decreases slightly but Freddy's humor continues to entertain.

The Dream Master has a sort of constant level of goofy idiocy.
09/12/07
