Better than Freddy's Revenge.

I disagree I liked part 2s uniqueness and Freddy's makeup was terrible in this movie, in part 2 it was probably the best and scariest looking makeup of the series, plus Freddy was still scary in part 2, here he was just a wisecracking joker.
Although this movie does fall into the so bad it's good category for me.

I thought Freddys Revenge was actually better: loved the darker tone of that one, and Freddy was still a pretty menacing figure. Freddys Dead was great as well though; loved the over the top nature of this installment, and the ending was pretty awesome. Both are vastly underrated

I ultimately agree. 'Dead' is easily more logical and thorough - from a story perspective - than 'Revenge.' The problem with this movie was that it went overboard with, and pandered to, its creative choices. The problem with Revenge was that it was produced with a first draft and a incomplete story.

Well I think both films are extremely underrated and I love them both.
I agree Freddy's Dead:The Final Nightmare is a better overall film but Freddy's Revenge is also pretty damn good in itself.
Freddy's Revenge has a darker mood and feel,a deep premises, & does a lot of cool scary tricks.
Freddy's Dead seems to be a little bit more ambitious stylish & has stronger characters.
I like that both films fit within the universe of the original Nightmare on Elm Street series 1-6 & FVJ but serve as their own off stories than in the confines of jumping off one films to another films continuity.To me Dream Warriors was a prelude to the Alice story as seen 4 & 5 and Part 1 servers as a prelude to The Dream Warriors story.
Freddy's Revenge fits right in between Part 1's narrative & Part 3's as Jesse's possession story and how he's dealing with Freddy before the events of 3.Freddy's Dead works as a nice universe builder for FVJ's story to work in contrast to Part 5's plot. -

Gotta disagree. I found Freddy's Revenge to be my favorite of the sequels. It dares to do something different, and as others have said, Freddy is far more menacing than cartoonish.
So many stories, so little time.
