A Nightmare On Elm Street will always remain my favourite childhood horror movie.
The plot: In the dreams of his victims, a spectral child murderer stalks the children of the members of the lynch mob that killed him.
My uncle had a huge collection of VHS horror movies that I used to love to go through and look at all the covers because I wasn't actually aloud to watch any of them. Then one day my father finally (after a lot of begging) let me watch Nightmare and I was officially obsessed. All the blood, gore and special effects (which were good back then) were so amazing to me and Freddy was the scariest ever. The atmosphere they created in this movie between real life and the world in their dreams was very cleverly portrayed and excited me on a surrealistic level. I just loved it, and the obsession of scary movies started for me.
A Nightmare On Elm Street was made in 1984, it was directed by Wes Craven and stars Robert Englund, Heather Langenkamp and Johnny Depp. There were a bunch of sequels which were mostly crap although I did enjoy the 3rd one called Dream Warriors made in 1987. Check out the trailers:
