#154: Freddy's dead: the final nightmare, Movies recommended or seen lately... les films a voir

Genre: Horror/Horreur

Annee/Year: 1991

Format: DVD


Freddy's dead: final nightmare. Dead again you say. Well this is the final film in the original saga. Again they will kill off Freddy in a most original way. This time they use the fact that he had a daughter. Yes we see Freddy having a normal family life until he looses it and kills of his wife after she discovers some of her estra curricular activities.


Director Rachel Talalay does a good job here in her first of three feature films in her carreer (the other two being Tank girl and Ghost in the machine). She now makes much TV content. This first film is actually very well put together. By the 6th movie people are aware of the goods so one needs to be quite original to keep us entertained. And this film delivers with yet new ways to challenge our minds. Freddy has finally managed to kill all the kids from his hometown and he is now looking further to play his games. Robert Englund is still on top of his game as Freddy while Liza Zane does a good job at playing Freddy's daughter. Maggie her character does not know this information which she discovers half way through the movie. Freddy tries to take her on the dark side but she turns around and delivers him the final blow. This was a 3D movie in the theater and the movie carries some stupid moves obviously put in place to take advantage of 3D. One of the solid Freddy movies to close the long line.


"Freddy's dead: final nightmare" nous raconte le chapitre final de cette franchise. Après avoir éliminé tous les enfants de son village natal; Freddy essaie de pénétrer notre monde encore une fois en utilisant sa propre fille, surprise. La directrice Rachel Talalay dans son premier de trois films pour le grand écran (Tank Girl et Ghost in the machine) réussi encore une fois a nous ramener le cauchemardesque personnage de Wes Craven dans des scènes originales et encore mieux réussies. Le sixième film de Freddy est une certainement faite dans le même moule, mais il reste assez frais pour être un des plus solides films de la série. À voir pour les amateurs du genre.
