Summary

So this is how it ends, not with a bang but with a whimper. Freddy left the 80s and entered the 90s with a particularly weak entry in the franchise in Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare. That's not to say there isn't anything interesting to be found here; brightly lit, very colourful and with jokes lifted right out of Looney Tunes, this film more than any other displays the ways in which Freddy had become watered down and commercialised for the mainstream audience.
