A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master

Not a Good Follow-up

Renny Harlin is probably one of my favorite directors of movies that completely bomb or don't have that much of a following....but they are decent within their own right.

I guess this movie is no exception....although I do immediately have a little beef with the movie right from the start.

Recasting the main character from Part 3 with a different girl. They got the two other survivors for show up in this movie. Maybe Patricia Arquette was too big a name back in 1988??? But you just can't do that. Movies make the habit of changing actors for movies too often. If you can't get the person who played the role before...write a new damned script.

I don't remember a lot about this movie other than I thought it was rather ridiculous in terms of just a bland story and kills. Nothing really special about it at all. Had some likable characters, but ehhh.
