My Opinion on the Prototype of Elm Street Story

This is a horror movie and I don't recommend anyone to watch it. Especially for audiences with poor psychological endurance, it is better not to watch such a film than to watch it. According to my personal experience, the prototype of the story of this film comes from a certain obsessive-compulsive disorder. People with OCD see many things that are not real as real because they have a strong sense of reality. For example, some people who are obsessive about knives are afraid to touch knives because they are afraid of cutting off their hands with knives, which seems unreasonable to outsiders, but obsessive-compulsive patients have a real sense of loss of control and are afraid of themselves Losing control and cutting off one's own hand, this fearful experience is extremely strong, and it is a real harm to people. The so-called dream refers to the various bizarre thoughts of obsessive-compulsive disorder patients. The so-called injury in the dream will become real, which refers to the extremely fearful inner experience. If there is a finale on Elm Street, I guess it may be that the protagonist who disclosed the story actually has obsessive-compulsive disorder!
