This movie is appallingly bad and the worst of the series.

That's alright. It's your opinion and you're more than entitled to it. Personally i can't see how anyone can like 3. It's cheesy and so dated. The lines are cringeworthy. I'm so glad they didn't end it there.
Got to agree with FD. That was awful and not even funny in the slightest. New Nightmare? That was a masterpiece -

The problem with this movie is that Jack Sholder and David Chaskin are both hacks who NLC hired for the sake of cost effectiveness. In more capable hands, the plot here may have been salvageable and perhaps not so disconnected from what part one established, but these two had no sense of east and west and it shows on screen. They were trying to turn an rough draft script that cried for a rewrite into a movie. The actors look frustrated and inconvenienced. Half the reason Freddy is so pokerfaced in this movie is because Englund was irritated. The whole thing was mediocre. Just imagine what this could have been had Craven returned.

Nancy should have been there. That's why pt 3 feels like the real 1st sequel. Even if all the clumsy and illogical things remained, i think Nancy being there would've added enough familiarity to make those things not so off putting.

There wouldn't have been a movie if Nancy had been there because she would have taken Krueger down in the first twenty minutes. Any of the series protagonists (Nancy, Kristen, Alice, Maggie, Laurie) would have easily beat Freddy Revenge Freddy because he was all bluster.

Agree. The movie actually becomes a little more interesting when it's Freddy vs. Lisawhich is what it SHOULD have been from the beginning. It's obvious she (and Grady) were "Elm Street children". Making this focal point of the movie about Jesse was its biggest mistake.
