This-Freddy-Krueger-Kill-Sums-Up-What-Makes-the-Nightmare-on-Elm-Street-Franchise-So-Scary
The Big Picture For many fans of Wes Craven's A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, the sixth movie Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare sits near the bottom of their ranking. It is criticized for pushing Freddy's goofiness too far and losing what made him so scary in the 1984 original. Also, being the sixth movie in less than 10 years, there was a feeling of fatigue surrounding the franchise.
One of the most obvious instances of this comes in the fourth movie, The Dream Master. Shelia is introduced as a genius who has asthma, there is not much else to her character. Freddy takes her asthma and uses it against her, essentially sucking all the air out of her. The circumstances lead to her death being dismissed as a fatal asthma attack. The whole sequence is a clever inversion of her asthma that the movie had been so obviously emphasizing and heightens Freddy's twisted psyche.
Carlos' Death Is Immersive and Traumatic Close Throughout the series, these thematic deaths are stomach-churning, but they still retain the comedy that Robert Englund brings to Freddy Kreuger in the franchise's later installments. However, Carlos' death in the sixth movie, Freddy's Dead, isn't humourous at all; it is truly chilling.
