This one is pretty bad. Very sadly, because Dream Warriors pavemented the path really well.

This movie already starts in the wrong way by deciding to kill every character that survived the previous film in stupid ways. Suddenly, they became so reckless and forgot that Freddy is from hell, so the possibility of him coming back once again for them is always there.
Not only that, the same characters that managed to beat Freddy fucking Krueger in his own territory, the dreams, are murdered so damned easy.

Patricia Arquette’s character is recast to someone else and in the meantime we are presented to the future protagonist, Alice. She’s not very charismatic. Apparently, she’s got a great super power but that’s wasted as she just watches every friend of hers die.

The deaths are nothing special, I don’t even remember them by now. What’s most fantastic about this movie is the fact that the script decides whether or not it is convenient to show in the real world the outcome of Freddy’s attacks. One time a guy dies drowned in his dream and when his mother founds him, he is really drowned. Inside his bed. At another time, some girl dies while she’s in class and everybody think she just had a severe asthma attack.

Now, the star of this film, its final act. This movie is so incoherent, like all the time. Near the end of the film, it just abandons every single rule established throughout the whole franchise and that includes the first and most basic one: Freddy can only hurt you if you are asleep, otherwise he’ll have to keep waiting. Even the second movie — which is horrendous — follows this, Freddy only attacks everyone at the party because he’s actually in the real world.
Here, Alice and her crush gets trapped in the same dreaming loop while they’re not even sleeping. Alice crash the truck they’re driving and then all of sudden they’re both back to real world. Her crush is practically dead, she’s fine, it’s a mess. I mean, what the hell man, what were these people thinking?

This movie has something good though. Makeup and special effects are always really well done. The soundtrack is fun. Robert Englund is enjoyable to watch, I love when he says something and adds a “bitch” in the ending.

This movie is so meaningless and annoying. Although I expressed my extreme discontentment with The Dream Master, I guess Freddy’s Revenge somehow is worse than this.
