A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) – Good Luck Sleeping After This One
”A Nightmare on Elm Street” introduced the world to the iconic and instantly recognizable figure of Freddy Kruger. This claw-handed, severely burned, and disfigured child murderer, who haunts and kills his victims in their sleep, is a character that has left an indelible mark on the horror genre.
While Freddy Kruger would evolve into a more wisecracking and cartoonish figure in later films, the original concept remains unique. Craven’s storytelling prowess shines as he brings to life the idea of the parents’ sins passing down to their children in a ghastly and unforgettable way.
