Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors
I believe that this was the peak of the series. The rest of them had their good points but fall short of the standards set after this one. I liked the tricycle that left trails of blood, and the scene where Freddy wrote on Joey's chest to bait Nancy to come after him. I also liked the mirror scene and the fact that they killed off Nancy. It was totally unexpected. The skeleton scene looked pretty terrible, but I guess the effects were done back in the eighties. 4 out of 5.
