Favourite Film Reveiw- A Nightmare On Elm Street

Sleep. The safest, most secure realm the human mind can enter, where whatever happens the dreamer will wake, safe, and unharmed. Unless they live on Elm Street. In 1984, director Wes Craven created  a monster, one that would hunt you, torment you, ruin you, whenever you drifted into sleep. Challenging a once safe and untouched escape for the mind. This monster was Freddy Krueger. Driven to his death by an angry mob, Freddy was burnt alive, only to return as a spirit that haunts his victims dreams, and eventually exacts his fatal revenge. Wielding his iconic 'finger knives' Freddy creates brutal and imaginative ways to murder his victims.
As a fan of the horror genre, Nightmare On Elm Street quickly caught and maintained my attention with a talented cast, including, Johnny Depp, Robert Englund and Heather Langenkamp,  the terror and sheer helplessness of the teens situations was portrayed very well, while each character was relatable in each of their situations, and a natural reaction was to root for them to beat Kruger, it was interesting and somewhat exciting to watch each death unfold, as the ways in which Kruger kills his victims is not only interesting but vastly entertaining (Johnny Depp's death in mind).

Although I do not what to reveal too much about the film for anyone who
hasn't watched it, I can recommend it relentlessly, especially if you are already a fan of the horror genre and even if you aren't, the expertly acted, exquisitely produced, while retaining a certain amount of charm, A Nightmare On Elm Street, is not only one of the best horror films ever made but also definitely in competition with my favorite film.
