I actually watched this with Witter last week, but kind of forgot about it. We talked about it some last night and came to the conclusion that this in one of our favorite in the Freddy series. Sure, it's got some (unintentional, I would argue) anti-gay undertones, but for the most part this movie is fun.
This flick has grown on me a lot over the last few years. At one point I would have said that it was my least favorite in the series, but especially watching it with a friend and having a laugh about it, this movie turns into a fun roller coaster ride of real horror moments, goofy spots, and complete weirdness. Plus, it doesn't conform to the Freddy formula. That's pretty cool. There is no group of friends that Freddy rips apart one by one. There is no female heroine. Freddy makes it into the real world because he wants to in this one, he isn't just drug into reality in order to be killed like he is in a couple of the other ones.
And, when Freddy does get into the real world, oh man what a good scene that is!
