4.0 out of 5 stars better than some of the movies, October 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Freddy's Nightmares: No More Mr Nice Guy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This episode is better than nightmare on elm street 2. Great way to start off the series! It tells about the begining of Freddy. It starts out with him on trial. And leads to how he was burned. A must see!

4.0 out of 5 stars Freddy's Origin, November 1, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Freddy's Nightmares: No More Mr Nice Guy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you love the Freddy movies and are very interested in Freddy's pre- dream killer history, then you have got to see this episode. This was the pilot episode and it tells how Freddy was originally captured and then let go. It details how the angry parents found him and turned him into the man we all know and love today. This is intelligent writing and a must for any fan!!.

This review is from: Freddy's Nightmares: No More Mr Nice Guy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I got this for Christmas from my friend and had to watch it that very night. You can definitely tell that it is from the 80's. Ok, the story doesn't quite follow the movies, but how many different conflicting things have the fans seen by now? I really enjoyed this telling of the story to show how Fred became the dream killer we all grew to love in the "Nightmare on Elm Street" movies. I will say that the acting definitely is not award winning, although I think Robert Englund(Freddy Krueger) does a great job as usual. The story is good enough if you are a fan you will most likely really get a kick out of it. Now let's keep our fingers crossed that Robert Englund can get the Freddy Prequel movie up and rolling in another year or two.
Keep the faith.
