    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      In this film, Freddy is depicted much closer to what Wes Craven had originally intended for the character, much more menacing, much less comical, with an updated attire and appearance. However in 2015, before his death, he would admit he regretted changing his appearance and said: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Which was why he kept Ghostface's mask the same in every Scream movie.
    • Goofs
      When Julie punches out the head nurse, she is knocked out cold onto the floor. The second nurse runs out the door screaming, afraid of the syringe. Somehow, the head nurse ends up outside the door trying to get inside.
    • Quotes
      • Heather Langenkamp: Every kid knows who Freddy is. He's like Santa Claus... or King Kong or...
    • Crazy credits
      Freddy Krueger was included in the end credits as 'Himself'.
