A departure from the first 3 (read - not as good).
6 November 1998
Definitely a completely different film to the previous ones, delivering a different kind of Freddy - one that kills in a creative fashion after playing with his victims for a little while. It makes him seem more cruel, and is quite hard to sit back and watch the cruelty.

I disliked the absence of Patricia Arquette and Heather Langenkamp, since they were the life of the series up until now. The acting isn't crash hot from the newbies, but they try hard.

Overall, I think the series has gone too far at this point, and is starting to get quite boring. Quit now, or perhaps bring back the legendary Wes Craven, which thank god someone eventually did about 6 years later.
