6/10
A strong entry into both series.
6 September 2003
Dracula and Wolfman's duel had everyone on the edge of there seat back in 1935. Sixty-five years later the slashers of the current generation duke it out in this bloodbath which intertwines the Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street films. The film begins as a common slasher flick when Jason is resurrected to strike fear into the teenagers of Elm Street in an attempt to restore power to Freddy, who has been forgotten and trapped in hell. Jason does his job well disposing the half wit protagonists and then for the last thirty minutes dukes it out with Freddy both in the dream and real world. The film delivers what fans would expect and then some and was surprisingly entertaining for its thin plot. The kills are all in the goriest fashion and a great performance is given by Jason Ritter as Will a young adult who escapes his Asylum to save his girlfriend. I would recommend this film for fans of both series but not for those new to them. The film reveals a lot about previous films which only hardcore fans would appreciate while not being strong enought to be a stand alone film. My rating is 3.5 stars out of 5
