Freddy Krueger:
[narrating]
My children... from the very beginning, it was the children who gave me my power. The Springwood Slasher, that's what they called me. My reign of terror was legendary. Dozens of children would fall by my blades. Then the parents of Springwood came for me...

The Ultimate Battle Between Evil And, Um Well, Evil
Rating: 9/10
Man, I felt like this was a presidential campaign. :) Who would you
vote for in this awesome battle? Me? Freddy all the way, man! I'll give
you that Jason's bigger, but he's such a Mama's Boy, Freddy is just
down right mean. But this movie was so incredibly awesome and such a
treat to horror fans.
If you are a fan of the Friday the 13th series, this had so many
tributes to the originality, sex, drugs, alcohol, stupid teens, and
cliché bad acting. We had our slutty girl, the smart but always sexy
girl who's a virgin, the funny stereotype black girl, a geek, a stoner,
the sensitive boyfriend, and two of the coolest boogeymen of all horror
cinema.
The plot, at first I had questioned how they'd do it. I mean, we got a
killer from Camp Crystal Lake and a killer who haunts your dreams. But
they made Freddy loose his powers and he needed the kids to be afraid
so he could be strong again while feeding on their fear, but how can he
do that when he's not that effective in his nightmares? Of course!
Jason! Jason is like his bubble wrap, he assumes Jason will probably go
away or he'll be easy to throw away after the job is done. But he
surprises Freddy by staying and for the ultimate battle of who's
victims are who.
This was just such a blast to watch. Classic horror cliché's and the
best battle of the ultimate boogeymen were just too cool. The ending is
a cliff hanger, but you have too many votes going towards both sides.
We could never decide who is the best at the gore... Freddy! :D Sorry,
I just needed to say that. But I think all horror fans will enjoy the
battle scenes and the gore. It's just a great tribute to our favorite
killers!
