Alice and her dad in A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child

Y'know, for being a dickhead in the last movie, Alice's dad ends up being a pretty dynamic character!

Dan is dying on a nightmare motorbike.

Ghost Rider...Motorcyle...HEROOOO!!!

Damn. Dan is having a REAL bad night. What do you want with a franchise that has so few legacy characters. Dan's got to go!

Y'know something? As usual I forget how fuckin' weird this one is!

I can definitely see why this didn't make the final cut of Beetlejuice

"This time it's for keeps!"

Sorry, Alice, but there are more movies so that's not true

#ANOES5 #FrightClub

I'm getting a kick out of this incredibly cheesy comic-book thing

#ANOES5 #FrightClub

"You're not crazy." In tones of wonder.

Yeah. That's the most shocking thing here. You just barely survived a disgusting, filthy murder attempt by a nightmare monster wearing knives for fingers, but Alice isn't crazy.

"What... You named him already?"
"Yeah. I guess so."

Or did he name himself?

#ANOES5 #FrightClub

I bet you're right. 😆

Also I cannot for the life of me remember from one movie to the next that it's called Springwood. Springfield, Springtown, Springbok, Spring Pines even, fine. Springwood, weird.

#ANOES5 #FrightClub

Yes! So far they've been very funny

It's become pretty formulaic at this point, I don't think there was probably any avoiding that, but I am definitely not disappointed in the quality of the murdering!

#ANOES5 #FrightClub

There that's better
When the movie started I was eating little sandwiches on dinner rolls, and they were delicious, because I made them (I do not merely make a sandwich, I direct and produce a sandwich)
But it was difficult to post with hand food!

So if anybody watching was thinking about having children anytime soon, uuhhh...

Sorry

#ANOES5 #FrightClub

Yes. He's in recovery now, and by far the nicest parent in the film, as best I can tell so far.

But since I only just saw it last night, I remember what an absolute bastard he was when he was drinking. It wouldn't be surprising if that reappears at some point.

#ANOES5 #FrightClub

You know what, I'm not sure I've seen this one 😄
I know, and you call yourself a horror lover!

Once again, I note, the adults in this franchise
😬

I love how horror movies, especially in this era, are just completely unabashed about showing nuns wearing as much makeup as a Robert Palmer girl

Time for #anightmareonelmstreet5 with #frightclub
#anoes5 #thedreamchild

Girl, that's nasty. Get out of there.
#ANOES5 #FrightClub

At least this time he got properly prominent billing
#ANOES5 #FrightClub

I have grave doubts about whether or not these body parts are making sense in the order shown
#ANOES5 #FrightClub

It's so much fun to revisit these. And tomorrow, #ANOES5 #TheDreamChild!
