Dream Warriors upped the ante of the franchise giving the franchise a more commercial feel but balancing the darkness. Dream Master which is perfectly described by some as "the MTV Nightmare" is just that. It's still wild, ambitious and freaky but it's also a pop horror film. It's funny and entertaining and this is where Freddy started to become more of a comedian. Tuesday Knight does a fun but overdramatic job of replacing Patricia Arquette as Kristen and Freddy is reborn by a fog pissing fire in the junkyard. She of course takes him to a new group of friends one of which can carry him to new victims Alice played by a likable Lisa Wilcox. The entry features some of the best death setpieces especially when a girl is transformed into a cockroach. Renny Harlin (Deep Blue Sea) stylishly directs with a killer 80s soundtrack and a whole lot of creativity. Although it's a small step down from 3 it's still overly entertaining.
