Continuity mistake: In the first shot when Freddy injects his syringe-fingers in Taryn's arm, the syringes are spread apart and not in line. In the next shot all the fingers are in line, next to each other. (01:11:30)

6.2/10.The most overrated of The Nightmare On Elm Street franchise.What should've been a good idea fell flat.The kids are all unlikable.Patricia Arquette, whose family name alone has gotten her around, was the worst as she matched Heather Langenkamp in blandness.Robert Englund and John Saxon really tried hard but they couldn't save this mess.I rank this just barely above The Dream Child as the worst of the franchise.The presence of the Nancy Thompson character bothered me as she's putting these kids on pill reliance while doing the cliche of doctors know nothing while somebody outside of that field does.Heck, Stacey Alden as the nude nurse in her brief appearance out acted both Langenkamp and Arquette.This was a mess.

Freddy Krueger: Your wish... is my command.
Trivia: One of the best bargains that they got on an effect was when Kristen enters the nightmare house and sees a roasted pig that starts barking at her. The special effects guys were coming up with $300,000 estimates for how much a prosthetic pig would cost to build and animate; they could not afford that. Finally they got 2 REAL roasted pigs. One was decorated to look like it was ready to eat, and the other was made to look demonic. A crew member, who lost a coin toss, got under the table and stick his hand up into this dead pig to make it work. Glad it wasn't me...
Question: I saw this movie for the first time in years the other night, and I did not remember that Nancy was killed in this one. Is this the last nightmare film that she was in (other than the one where Freddy came to the real world and everybody played real names)?
Answer: Technically she was also in New Nightmare, both as the "Nancy" character and as the actress Heather in various scenes.
Technically the author said other than the one where Freddy came to the real world and everybody played real names. So therefore the 1st answer was accurate.
