It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The "Nightmare On Elm Street" franchise can be hit or miss. Some entries in the franchise work, while others fall flat on their face. This is one that kind of falls in between , even though most fans will readily admit that this isn't one of their favorites. Much has been made about this movies homoerotic undertones, and most involved with the movie will say that they didn't realize this until much, much later. I mean, how can't you realize this when Freddy tells a young teenage boy that he wants to use him for his body, and a high school gym teacher is found in a bar wearing leather S&M gear? But i don't really think any of that is why most fans don't really like this movie. The truth is, it just isn't all that good, and that's the main reason why its one of the weaker chapters in the series

I don't think the movie is the best but I enjoy it. I don't think "Revenge" is the best title because it doesn't have the protagonist Nancy Thompson. I like how they try different theme of the movie but sometime it work and sometime it fails. it's on my forth place of A Nightmare on Elm Street films so not a bad spot. PS I'm not gay, I enjoy this film for some reason I don't know why.

Freddy Krueger is back again! Wait, this is the first sequel so now he's just back. Anyway, this movie features Freddy possessing some guy named Jesse. I was confused as to how this even worked. I mean, he literally popped out of Jesse's body instead of possessing him. This movie is notable for being the one where Freddy gets the most kills. Most of them are done out of the dream world. Why doesn't he do that more often? He seems to be more powerful in the real world for some odd reason. He can even teleport.I do like how they feature Nancy's diary and don't just ignore her from the first film. She is the most iconic character from the franchise apart from Freddy of course. The budget was apparently only $3,000,000 so I will give this film props for looking nice. It still doesn't really have anything unique. The ending to the original "A Nightmare On Elm Street" was actually changed so that Freddy could come back giving us the sequels expected from a slasher movie. It's mostly just more of the same. **

The original Nightmare on Elm street movie was iconic and so we were expecting big things from the follow up movie but unfortunately we were given a movie that really was a rehash of the first one and the only new thing that we got was Freddy possessing our main lead but besides that we weren't given something inventive. Robert Englund is Freddy and continues to terrify us and Mark Patton is our lead boy Jesse who moves into Nancy's old house but really doesn't realize the hell he's walked into and overall he was an interesting character to get behind and i was sad to root against Freddy . Kim Myers is Lisa who is Jesse's love interest and someone who will help in the fight against the man of the dreams she was yet again another person who i enjoyed seeing go toe to toe with our bad guy. I have to say that Freddy's revenge compared to other films in the series it doesn't do well at giving us Freddy and making us purely terrified of our villain but still there are still good moments which redeemed it from being called an overall train wreck.
