Gone for good? No way! Even so, this sixth dice (and slice) with the fiendish Freddy is a jolly horror romp that reveals Freddy's reasons for revenge and ties everything up neatly at the end. Cinemas even had a last reel in 3D, though the process, as ever, was hardly up to snuff. Robert Englund gives it his best shot as the scarred child-murderer who haunts the dreams of his victims, now after the last surviving teenager from Springwood, scene of the original Elm Street. He hopes that the youth will lead him to his nearest and dearest - the child that was taken away from him after his guilt was discovered. Effects, gory and otherwise, are adequately done, though they don't look too expensive. Freddy is permitted a nice last line by way of a curtain call.
