A Nightmare on Elm Street

When Nancy checks her watch she is wearing a short-sleeved nightgown, but the closeup shows a wrist with the end of a long blue sleeve on it.

The part in Nancy's hair swaps sides when her father is telling her to try to forget about Tina.

In final scene, the girls singing "One, two, Freddy's coming for you" change places between shots.

The person who gets up to speak in the classroom is not the same person who was sitting in the same seat in the establishing shot a few seconds earlier.

Crash mat visible when Nancy jumps out of the boiler room and lands in her lawn.

When Freddy is knocked off the stairs one of the razor blades from his fingers has broken off.

Yet in the next scene, the blade is back on his finger.

When the sheet is coming around Rod's neck to choke him you can see the wire that is pulling it.

In a wide shot, when the bars have just been put on the house, the front door window bars are different than the close-up of Nancy on her porch.

The closer shot shows a heart shaped design rather than the three-bar pattern of the wide shot.

When Nancy runs up the stairs near the end of the movie, the camera shows a close up of her feet sinking into the "goo" stairs.

You can see exactly where she is going to put her feet as the "goo" pots are clearly visible.

Obvious stunt double for Nancy when she is pulled underwater.

The double also has blonde hair.

(In the audio commentary actress 'Heather Langenkamp' (qv) is watching this scene, and she embarrassingly says, "That is not me!") To wake herself up, Nancy smashes the outside of her arm against the boiler.

But when she wakes up, the burn mark is on the inside of her wrist.

Before Nancy goes to sleep, when Glen is suppose to be watching her, her blue phone is on the left-hand side, next to the chair.

When Nancy wakes up screaming, it's on the right.

When Freddy is on fire in the basement we hear him scream, but his mouth is closed.

When Freddy is on fire you can see the fire protective mask he's wearing, and it is obvious that it is a stunt double in fire protective clothing.

During her nightmare in the dream clinic, Nancy pulls Freddy's hat out of her dream and into reality.

Later during Nancy's final nightmare, Freddy grabs her suddenly, and for that one brief shot is wearing his hat, then he remains hatless for the rest of the film.

When Tina is killed, her shirt is ripped open and her chest is cut by Freddy's four blades.

In the next shot she is pulled up the wall then onto the ceiling and her shirt is buttoned up.

When Nancy sets the booby traps for Freddy, the "explosive lamp" she prepared is different when it actually explodes.

Obvious stunt dummy used when Nancy's mother is pulled through the window in the door at the end.

When Nancy is by the bush with Rod, his hand and chest are covered with blood, but when he runs out and is surrounded by the police, which is supposed to be moments later, his chest is clean.

The size of the pimple on Nancy's forehead changes from scene to scene.

While Freddy is chasing Nancy down the stairs after the sledgehammer hits him, he falls down form the top of the stairs.

When he falls, you can clearly see Freddy land on a bed to break his fall.

(corrected on both the 2 disc Inifinfilm DVD and the US Blu-Ray release of the film) After bringing Freddy into the real world, Nancy runs down to the front door and breaks the window.

You can already see the cracks in the window that were probably made so it would break easier.

When Glen is watching over Nancy while she sleeps, the lamp is turned off, darkening the entire room.

When she wakes up from her nightmare, her bedroom light is turned on, lighting the entire room.

When Nancy is in the bath the position of the blue bath pillow changes from high behind her head with her arms on her chest, to very low with her arms on her tummy.

When Nancy rips the phone out the wall and wraps it up, she places it on the bed.

The position of the phone, pillow and phone cable change after she opens her bedroom door.

When Nancy's mum disappears into the bed near the end of the film it is clear that the pillows change position and size.

They go higher up the bed.

When Nancy is in the kitchen with her mother after the visit to the dream institute she walks in and drinks coffee from a mug.

However she clearly isn't drinking anything since she isn't swallowing.

The morning after Tina dies, Nancy's mother, Marge, is pouring herself a drink.

After Marge turns off the TV, you can see her bottle of liquor on the counter as Nancy walks to the door.

The camera then cuts to close-ups of the two women, then goes back to the wide shot and the bottle is gone from the counter.

When Nancy is asleep and looking for Freddy she goes down into her basement.

After finding Freddy's claw is missing she opens a door leading to Freddy's boiler room, by pulling it towards her.

The camera cuts to the other side of the door is facing the other way, as if it was pushed open and not pulled.

When the cuts appear on Tina's torso and the Tina pulls her hands up to smear the blood, you can clearly see the foam latex roll up on the left-hand side.

When Rod is cornered by the police, he stops and raises his hands and you hear him say "I'm cool, I'm cool", but his mouth clearly isn't moving.

After Nancy sets Freddy on fire, she goes running up the basement steps and out the door but she leaves the door open, and it is still open as Freddy is coming up the stairs, but yet when he reaches the top, Nancy opens it and knocks him back down without having closed it in the previous shot.

Throughout the movie, along with all the sequels, Freddy's "razor" glove is on his right hand.

When Freddy is chasing Tina, there is a quick shot of him jumping out from behind a small tree and his glove is on his left hand.

Towards the end of the movie, Nancy was about to go home and go to sleep so she could bring Freddy back with her.

She told her dad to come break down the door in exactly 20 minutes so he could get Freddy.

In the 20 minutes before she was scheduled to wake up from her dreams, she was able to string up all those booby traps and have a heartwarming talk with her mother and then proceed to fall asleep to go get Freddy.

That seems highly impossible.

When Glen's parents come inside the house they leave the front door wide open.

After Glen's father hangs up the phone on Nancy, the parents go upstairs without shutting the door.

Freddy intimidates Tina by slitting off his own pinkie and ring fingers, but blood only spurts from the pinkie.

At the end of the final dream in which Nancy brings Freddy back into the real world, she is wearing an alarm clock wrist watch, letting her know that midnight is approaching.

When she awakens in her bed, she is not wearing one.

While Freddy scrapes his claws while his arms are elongated, while chasing Nancy down the lane, you can clearly see the skin under his glove is normal.

Anyone who was burned to death would be scarred from head to toe.

When Glen is just about to be killed, we hear the radio announcer saying that "it's twelve midnight".

But when he is being dragged into the bed by Freddy, the clock beside his bed shows 11:52.

However, since the radio announcer also gives the station call-sign as "KRGR" ("Krueger" minus the vowels), the time may be midnight only in Glen's dream.

When Freddy is first brought into the real world and is pushed over the steps by Nancy, A mattress is clearly visible on the staircase used to break the stunt double's fall.

In the full-screen version, during the first nightmare sequence, right before Freddy pops up to scare Tina you can see 'Robert Englund' (qv) as Freddy crouched down and moving into place behind her.

However, at the time of the film's release director 'Wes Craven' (qv) would assume that only the wide-screen version would eventually be available for home viewing.

You can't see 'Robert Englund' (qv) behind Tina in the wide-screen version.

"A Nightmare on Elm Street" (2010) is one of the worst remakes ever made, a crime for the original film. Jackie Earle Haley is a great actor but don't as Freddy Krueger, his performance was weak and simple.

I was severely ambivalent about seeing this remake for "Nightmare on Elm Street." I have been against it for a long time because Robert Englund's face is Freddy Krueger and has been for 26 years.

Remakes. There are probably way too many of them.

A Nightmare on Elm Street is an unbelievably original, terrifyingly realistic, and overall terrifying that, despite a weak ending, is one of the best horror flicks of the quarter of a century. The film deals with a deceased child molester who now lives only through the dreams of the children of those who burned him alive.

I can't believe it's taken me this long to see this movie. I haven't seen any sequels etc either.

This rebooted horror was pretty good. The best part about this horror was the fact that we (me, my cousin and my sister) could make jokes about it.

I know i'll probably be stating the obvious here when I say that all of these horror remakes from the classic iconic originals that first appeared in the 70's and 80's really blow. I was unfortunate enough to witness the latest instalment, reboot/remake..

I wasn't expecting the remake to Nightmare on Elm Street to be as good as the classic original, but I was expecting a decent enough film. As a remake and on its own terms, this Nightmare on Elm Street is a mess.
