Yeah, I gave Sleepaway Camp a second chance and it went from one of the worst I've ever seen to lower-mediocre zone :P So second chances do help!

I don't think it's weird to not like H2 but Tigg is just twisting the knife with such savagery like he wants to murder Reign, D, Zombie and I on the spot. Right here on HorrorMovieFans.com.

Why don't you watch Devil's Rejects and absolutely lay into how much you hate it so my head can explode? Why don't you do that, Tigg?

Watching A Nightmare On Elm Street

Common criticism I hear about part 2: Freddy doesn't effect the real world! What I witness in the first movie: Freddy effecting the real world by hanging Rod with the bedsheet.

he affected the real world pretty often in the first. more blatant in the sequel, but it was there.

It's just something I've commonly heard over the years to denounce part 2, and even a reason Craven came back for 3.

The coach's death is really no different than Rod's other than there being a witness, when you think about the supernatural rules of it.

Another example:

Freddy doesn't come in the real world! (regarding the pool party scene).

First movie: Nancy pulls him into the real world for the climax showdown.

Both films play with the real-world-event like it was nothing in the end too (like it may never have happened).

I can see the criticisms from homophobes (I think the gay undertones add to the movie, brilliantly exploitive), or those that didn't like the climax of "love conquers all" crap, but stuff like trying to adhere to rules that aren't really in place until the 3rd movie is pretty stupid, imo.

freddy's revenge is almost my least favorite of the englund movies, but at least criticize it accurately. :P
