Freddy (Robert Englund) has finally killed all the youngsters in Springfield, so he decides it is time to go elsewhere for new victims. He recruits his daughter Maggie (Lisa Zane)–Where did she come from?–to assist, but instead he must duke it out with her in the final 3-D climax. Yes, Freddy is dead (again), but this turns out NOT to be the "final nightmare." Several guest stars make cameo appearances. A few clever scenes.

Genre: Horror / Thriller
Director: Tobe Hooper
Cast: Robert Englund, Ted Levine, Daniel Matmor, Jeremy Crutchley, Vanessa Pike, Demetre Phillips, Lisa Morris, Vera Blacker, Ashley Hayden, Danny Keogh
As so often happens with Stephen King stories, especially short stories, this movie demonstrates the difficulty of capturing the same mood as the written work. The "Mangler" is a huge machine that presses and folds sheets at the Blue Ribbon Laundry owned by mean, old Bill Gartley (Robert Englund). When the Mangler processes a woman and an investigation begins, it becomes apparent that Bill has a deal with the machine to feed it. Then there's the Mangler's "friend," the refrigerator. There seem to be demons at work here. Yes, there is a sequel.

Director: Steve Boyum
Cast: Paul Walker, Steve Van Wormer, John Ashton, A.J. Langer, Robert Englund, Megan Cavanagh, Eric Braeden, M.C. Gainey, Dennis Hopper, Richard Lineback
Surfers are mistaken for park ranger recruits in this Disney offering of pure slapstick comedy and no depth.

Director: Wes Craven
Cast: Heather Langenkamp, Robert Englund, Jeff Davis, Miko Hughes, David Newsom, Matt Winston, Wes Craven, Rob LaBelle, Marianne Maddalena, Gretchen Oehler, John Saxon, Robert Shaye, Tracy Middendorf, Bodhi Elfman
Lots of screaming is about all one can say concerning this "Nightmare" movie in which actors from previous "Freddy Krueger" films return for more slashing. Of special note, Robert Englund appears as himself, opposing his old character, Freddy. And you thought the series ended with #6.

 A Nightmare on Elm Street 1984  R, 91 min.
Genre: Horror / Thriller / Fantasy
Director: Wes Craven
Cast: John Saxon, Ronee Blakely, Heather Langenkamp, Robert Englund, Amanda Wyss, Jsu Garcia, Johnny Depp, Charles Fleischer, Jack Shea, Joseph Whipp, Lin Shaye, Joe Unger, Mimi Craven, Ed Call
Years ago, angry locals took the law into their own hands and burned Fred Krueger alive after they discovered that he was abusing children. Now, Freddie (Robert Englund) has returned in the dreams of his killer's children, and the children begin to die. Nancy (Heather Langenkamp) is also having dreams about Freddie, and when her friends are meeting their demise, Nancy knows that she must stay awake and draw the dream killer out of the dreams and into the present-day world. This is great fare in the horror genre. In fact, the story of teenagers with some very bad dreams spurred many sequels.

Freddy (Robert Englund) is back in business five years later and is trying to take over another dreamer. It doesn't measure up to the original, and pretty gruesome in spots.

When Erik meets Christine, he falls in love with her, coaches her, and she becomes an opera star. Christine enjoys her success and her romance with Erik–until she realizes that Erik is committing grisly murders in his attempt to assure Christine success in the musical world.

 A Star Is Born 1976 R, 140 min.

Director: Frank Pierson
Cast: Barbra Streisand, Kris Kristofferson, Paul Mazursky, Gary Busey, Oliver Clark, Sally Kirkland, Robert Englund, Marta Heflin, Joanne Linville, Venetta Fields, Clydie King, M.G. Kelly
Sometimes remakes just do not capture all that the original movie did, and this version of "A Star Is Born" with Barbra Streisand as Esther and Kris Kristofferson as fading rock star Norman does not measure up to earlier versions. There was an Oscar, however, for Streisand's (and Paul Williams) song, "Evergreen."

When he meets Mary Tate Farnsworth (Sally Field) and Joe Santo (Arnold Schwarzenegger) at the gym, he finds depth to their lives of working and staying fit.

The opening chase scene and the ending hurricane are the highlights of this lame, but watchable, film. Partners-in-crime Ace and Scratch (Casper Van Dien and Robert Englund) are caught after the above-noted chase, thus thwarting their attempt to rob a tropical island casino. But, instead of being sent to jail, the casino owner hires them as casino security agents. Will they be able to stop the next attempt at robbing the casino? And don't forget the hurricane that is approaching.
