Wes Craven New Nightmare


* This film is kind of a spoof to the nightmare franchise
*The plot focuses on Freddy invading the real world and haunting the actors and crew responsible for the Nightmare on Elm Street films.
* It stands out from the rest of the franchise movies because it isn't part of the storyline that the franchise follows but instead takes a step into "real life"
* For New Nightmare, Freddy Kruger is portrayed closer to what Craven had imagined which was more darker and less comical
