Return to form!

Mark Adams from Great Yarmouth, England, 23rd April, 2005

After the good but slightly disapointing Freddies Revenge, this film marks a return to form with special effects that for the time were groundbreaking and even now can cause a lot of people to wince and look under the bed at night!

better than freddys revenge

gaz115 from from Stoke-On-Trent, 9th February, 2007

This third film in the series is much better than the second one, its more in line with the first films story. Would recomend to rent it if you've not seen it yet.

THE BEST SO FAR

A Customer from COVENTRY, 5th January, 2007

I have only watched 1,2 & 3 but this ones the best. As the reviews are saying they really went to town on making more of a story than just this bloke in the same old strippy jumper going around killing people. This has more of a Jamanji meets the shining/chucky/hellraiser appeal. The story is based more in the dreams and the dreamworlds are quite frightening with one or two jumps instore. For me you'll never beet the head popping out the boat in JAWS for the most jump out your seat moment. Hope 4 & 5 are as good.

Darker and grittier than the other Nightmare films

tunnelweb from from Hamilton, 8th August, 2008

Not the strongest film in the series. A little darker, grittier than others. Still, a good watch!

Well worth watching

A Customer from England, 25th July, 2007

The special effects in this film were excellent. Some parts were quite frightening and i had cause to jump on many occasions. The faint hearted will definetly check to see that there is nothing under there bed at night before going to sleep!
