This is a marker of the 30th anniversary of the greatest slasher ever in the 1980's. FREDDY! Wes, thank you for giving us nightmares for 30 years and still love the film ever since. No one can't be Freddy only Robert Englund. HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY, FREDDY! - @Friday, August 29, 2014 2:10 PM

HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY, FREDDY! You give us nightmares for 30 years and still one of my favorite Wes Craven flicks because of the style. The remake is all right but not much style as this one did. Continue the nightmares for the next 30 years. NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET! - @Thursday, August 21, 2014 1:33 PM

great horror movie, never seen this before, cause i ain't a massive horror fan. but i took a chance and bought the boxset yesterday. glad i did. i wasn't scarred but more shocked with some of the deaths. watched the first 3 films today. i am a new fan of the horror movie series. 1st i thought was magic, 2nd one sucked a bit, the 3rd one wow i was blown away how good that was. anyway this was johnny depp's first film. he plays his part well. you can tell he was gonna be a star. heather langenkamp was my favourite character as nancy in this film. robert englund is amazing as horror movie legend freddie kruger. the other actors done a great job. the direction by wes craven magic, his most underrated horror movie is shocker. trust me if you have not seen it watch it great film. 10 out of 10 movie and best horror film i have ever seen. looking forward to watching the rest of this movie series. - @Saturday, November 30, 2013 9:49 PM
