It can be said that my favorite in the cult department is the braindead of Peter Jackson in his early years. There are all kinds of classic plots, all kinds of ingenious ideas, and many neat details (some even all kinds of zombie movies twenty years later.) Complete imitation), also extremely glam, but compared to the whole, Elm Street as a whole is a very glam story. Not to mention the idea of the overall idea, the way Freddy kills people is also dizzying (I remember watching Freddy VS Jason imitating this joke about killing Johnny depp when I was a kid, I couldn't sleep at night), how to maximize the horror without appearing outrageous , this story tells you that if you are in a dream, it is no big deal if anything happens. Now, with a platform that escapes the objective physical laws of the world, how to show the story depends on the imagination. Although there is no multi-linear compounding in the structure of the screenwriter, this natural sequential narrative is obviously easier to show this dream and reality concept.
Without further ado, this film that has influenced a slew of sci-fi and horror films for two decades doesn't feel like a waste of time.
