Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare

Freddy returns to reunite with his long lost child. I know a lot of people hated this movie, but I thought it was rather entertaining. Most people hate the fact that Freddy used so many one-liners and jokes. They feel that he's not as violent enough, but he dropped someone onto a bed of spikes, blew one guy's head off, and turned another teen into a puddle of blood. I also dug the creepy carnival and the line of cameos, like Roseanne, Tom Arnold, and Johnny Depp. If you want to see a bad NOES movie, check out parts 2, 5 and 7. See this bad boy. 4 out of 5.
