Got some shit news yesterday… grateful for you guys
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! 🙏💚📼
Thank you Chuck Russell & Dreamscape. We would have never gotten dream warriors without them.
Holding you guys to reviewing Freddy’s nightmares in season 20.
Also, I just want to say. Joe you sent some very nice words to me about 8 months ago after I was going through a very tough break up. And I just wanted to say thank you again. It really helped and wasn't expecting the reply I got. Than you again
Thank you Joe
Best movie in the franchise! That puppet scene was sheer genius
Hell yeah! This is gonna be a good episode, can't wait!. When revisiting the Elm Street films, i usually just watch the Nancy Thompson trilogy(aNoES, Dream Warriors & New Nightmare).
No love for the "dream" trilogy? (Warriors, master and child)
@@TheEnigmaticBM39 child sucked lol
@@TheEnigmaticBM39 I've got no problem with the Dream Trilogy, I love the franchise as a whole. It's more so because the Nancy Trilogy is my favorite way of watching. The Dream Trilogy works too.
Nancy all the way !!!!
Met Robert in 2016, my friend and i were excited, we had a prop that represented the mother, and he took it from me, proceeded to yell "Where's the Bourbon, B**ch?!"
And laughed, while wearing a replica of the Freddy glove, which he in turn scratched my costume a bit
Thank you, Joe and Sean, for another great review
One of my favorite horror movies, and favorite Elm Street movie!
Not only is Dream Warriors the best of the series, it's my favorite horror movie of all time. Elm street kids represent. ❤️💚
Whats up Joe and Sean! This one is probably the best! -McTuggy
I still think the effects hold up in this really well.
In dreams sometimes things look a little wonky.
So they can always use that excuse. Haha.
Ohhh I just creamed my pants. You guys never disappoint!! Brings back memories of middle school spelling bee. I won fourth place when I spelled queef correct.
Y'all have been doing this show for six seasons and this is the video that's getting you recommended to new people like me in the Algorithm
We hope that’s a good thing! Thanks for watching and we hope you enjoyed it! 🙏💚📼
I got into horror movies kinda late in highschool. Most of my intro was zombie stuff during the late 2000s zombie boom. But I will always have respect for the influence of slasher villains like Freddy,Jason or Leatherface. Plus, you get that S.O.D. song and Scary Terry from Freddie's influence.
getting my seat and waiting for the premiere
Yes! I'm so happy to see you two do a Nightmare movie. I'm 45 and have been watching them all religiously since a wee lad. From inception to my 30's, I always thought 3 was my favorite - I think it helped that my Dad was REALLY into Dokken and hair metal, lol - but 3 is just a fabulous and fun movie.
Now that I'm in my mid-40s, I tend to think of 4 as my fav, then 2, then 3. I won't get into the details, lol. It's so weird how that the more you age, the more you really delve into why you enjoy the movies you loved as a kid.
Anyway, blabbering, lol. I listen to your podcasts religiously while mindlessly working at Amazon, and you both lift my spirits, so keep up the wonderful work, and I wish you the most success ever. Peace!
Thank you so much!! We’re so glad you’re enjoying the show!! 🙏💚📼
Freddy's dead was the first one I saw at a young age. It got me into the series. So I do have a soft spot for it. But, when comes to my fav it's between 3 and 4. Leaning more towards 3. 3 is def the best of the series.
Sean and Joe another great video. Can't wait for the next one!!!!
Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying the show! 🙏💚📼
We are the Dream Warriors!!
These days, I'd take Freddy's Nightmares over all of the main line movie entries.
Love it's late 80's MTV-style over the top, cheesy and up beat vibe it brings to the table. And it's new to me, unlike all of the older films which i've seen to death already.
But if i were to choose the best sequel, it's easily going to Dream Warriors. Freddy's Dead also holds a special place in my heart too. Renting that one on VHS back in 1992 when it was brand spanking new at the age of 7-8 years old was something else. lol
You guys should DEFINITELY do Shocker!
Shocker is fantastic wanted more Pinker to bad it never happened
Hell yeah, man! That’s a hidden gem!!
Nice!! I'm super excited about this one. 🎉❤
The original will always be one of my favorite horror movies of all time, as it was my introduction to the genre. I was obsessed, and i remember getting to this one, and it blew my mind. The kills, the lore, and all the characters were super likable. It still ranks 3rd for me, but i love this entire franchise, including the hated ones. Another banger episode guys! Thanks for the shoutouts!
Oh and someone send Sean the part of the interview of Wes going on about hating the ending of the first one and Shay going on and on about how it had to have a stinger. Wes said that the ending actually completely went against what he wanted the ending to be.
Also believe that this is covered extensively in the Never Sleep Again documentary which is one of the best, if not the best, horror documentary ever made.
I gotta watch that one, missing some good BTS it seems! -Sean
Dream warriors is such a damn good blend of the horror and the one liners. What a classic.
Great episode fellas.
Thanks for watching! 🙏💚📼
Oh and with Joey's voice power turns out you were thinking of Black Bolt of The Inhumans. I thought that sounded familiar too.
My favorite nightmare on elm street movie!!
Great Episode! Keep it up fellas!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏💚📼
Great episode, Dream Warriors is the most fun movie to watch in the franchise
Thanks for watching! 🙏💚📼
I demand to see the Movie Dumpster origin story on the big screen 🎥
The journey of 30-year-old Joe introducing the horror genre to a teenage Sean is just too good to pass up!
It was a good time!
Robert's auto is at least 120 or 160 now. Still he's a really cool guy to meet.
Holy hell. He is such an awesome guy though, and takes his time to talk with everyone.
I totally agree. I think the industry has just decided to capitalize on cons now, but Robert has earned it since he has given us decades of entertainment.
There was a licensed Nightmare comics series that pitched an idea of Nancy becoming a guardian angel over dreams to counter Freddy as the demon. The comic also said this resulted specifically from Kristen’s pledge to the dying Nancy, to dream her into a “beautiful place,” which caused Nancy’s spirit to awake in an idealized version of her old bedroom, full of sunlight.
Alway great to hear a Granny Van Dam reference.
If it ended with three and was a trilogy, I would be happy.
You mentioned Friday The 13th Part 5 and yeah I’d love to hear you guys cover it. It’s my favorite in the franchise. So indulgent, sleazy, and mean, but always fun.
I'm a simple man. I see you guys talking about anything Nightmare on Elm St, and I get instantly excited to see Joe say literally ANYTHING in the Freddy "It's a boyyyyy!" Voice.
LOVE the stop-motion Freddy skeleton. Probably the coolest animated skeleton in the history of cinema.
Jason and the Argonauts has the best animated skeletons in cinema history and almost certainly inspired the Freddy Skeleton. I do really love the Freddy skeleton scene, though.
You like that part? Honestly it's the weakest scene in the movie foe me
@@mr.exposition We can't all have good taste.
Chuck Russell ranks up there with the all-time great horror directors
4 as a fail is wild that’s the best one that’s definitely rewatchable
Just our opinion!
Nightmare 3 and FvsJ are the best sequels- perfect blend of scary and funny Freddy in them both.
48:00 48:10 OMG Joe you're the main characters' mother is both funny and really sums up the mother's role perfectly lol😅
I would love to see Elm Street 3 reimagined as a graphic novel.
Or a manga!
If you've watched the 4 hr documentary Never Sleep Again released by 1428 Films, in the chapter covering Dream Warriors, they show the production video of Taryn's prop head exploding, so the footage indeed does exist.
Ah that makes sense! I was looking all over for the clip and was coming up empty, didn’t think to check the doc! -Sean
@@MovieDumpster this and crystal lake memories are great documentaries and perfect companion pieces when I rewatch the respective franchises
I personally like Revenge the most out of the sequels. Also New Nightmare. 3 is probably the best objectively of the sequels and would rate higher for me if Nancy wasn't killed off in such a way that it added no value to the ending.
Great episode!
When yall do Hellraiser you really should do a book to the movie with C.B. because I know I've heard both you guys remember the book being basically the exact same as the movie but I find the book to be very different from the movie.
I really admire that you are able to say that 3 is the best objectively, but not your personal favorite. A lot of people seem to believe that whatever they enjoy the most has to be the best, like it's incorrect to simply prefer one thing over another. I use a word that begins with an R and ends with an ETARDED to describe that trait.
2 is also my favorite in the series, when Freddy was still creepy and mysterious.
I didn't get to grow up with Freddy, Jason, Michael or Leatherface when they were in their 80s Prime, sadly, but I did thankfully get to grow up with the Crypt Keeper in the early 90s, and that's a win in my book, and I know there will eventually be a day when the best Dumpster spokesmen hit those up, just gotta be patient once the Darkside eps are done.
I grew up with Michael Myers from 1978, Missed out on Leatherface in 1974, I was born in 1975. Got to know Jason in 1980 at a drive-in when I was supposed to be watching The Blues Bros. (even though later on I found out it was Jason's mother) but I also was watching Dracula 1979 - when movies stayed for awhile back then.
@@dangchanneldeg6948 that's so awesome. I was so glad growing up in the 90s when Fox made the syndicated edits of Crypt episodes a thing because I had those on Saturday nights, and than at some point there was also a Crypt Keeper cartoon and game show with the same actor voicing the character
@@Cwrproductions426 Those Fox episodes of Tales from the Crypt were edited big time. Sorry. I love the cartoons though.
I love that despite watching this show in August I feel like it’s nearly Halloween with the vibe from watching you guys
🥰🙏💚📼
The Freddy and Lumis impressions are spot on, always makes me laugh
Always fun watching you two bringing back good movies to talk about
Tbh I'd say this is even better than the first film
Back in the day, I was a little kid in the mid 1980s and hearing about the news and watching HBO behind the scenes stuff for Elm Street 3 was a nic esurprise since i was aware of Elm Street 1 and 2 at the time back then due to Elm Street 2 being on HBO all the time. that and Elm Street 1 kept popping up on USA Network's Saturday Nightmares all the time. Nancy's death was shocking i guess but i wasnt a total hardcore fan of her until years later
I 100% agree with Joe. pretty sure this is my favorite nightmare movie. I remember being a little kid sneaking out of my crib to watch this because my parents got it as a free movie rental deal so it might just be nostalgia but to this day it holds up and is one of my favorite movies.
I am so glad ya'll pronounced Dokken correctly, unlike Tony.
This is Certainly the Fan Favorite Sequel in the NIGHTMARE Franchise & it's the Sequel that elevated FREDDY to Superstar Rockstar ICON Status,,,,by the way that's a Dope Shirt JOE & Everyone needs to know about that Bollywood Version of FREDDY KRUEGER 😃🤘😊🤘
Who in their right mind would name a meatball mark? Rick on the other hand sounds just right.
🤣 I remembered during the premiere. -Joe
I have a random question: how do you delineate or distinguish your seasons? Just curious. Love the content as always
Our seasons run full years. This episode would be S7 E12. They are marked on the audio version of the show.
I understand. It always felt so random for some reason. Seven years you've been doing this then ?! Wow I only got on board with you guys maybe a couple years ago after you guested on...alien 3 I think...hack the movies with the incredibly famous and known Tony
Great episode dudes. Just found your show for the first time. Instant fan!
Thank you so much, brother! Appreciate you giving us a chance and we’re glad you’re enjoying the show! 🙏💚📼
Fantastic video! Dream Warriors has always been my favourite. Loved this. Subbed ❤💚
Thank you! 🙏💚📼
Great episode dumpster boys! This one is gonna blow up!!! Streamed 12 hours ago and you all already got 4k+ views!!!!! Hell yeah guys🎉 please please do f13 part 5, its my favorite in the whole franchise. 💚🗑️
Thank you so much! We’re looking forward to it! 🙏💚📼
Easily, followed by Freddy’s Revenge, and The Dream Master.
I can't see how Freddy changed more than Jason over the films. I'd argue Jason changed more than ANYONE. Ghost of a child to murderous hillbilly to immortal monster to body swapping demon to intelligent hunter...
I think we just meant that the core portion of Jason being a silent, unstoppable killer for a majority of the series.
That Mahakaal shirt has to be a 1 of 1. I consider New Nightmare and FvJ sequels. And I like both those more than 3 here. But this one is absolutely required viewing. I do think this has some of the darkest content of the series. Not to mention the best (and scariest) kill of the entire franchise probably. The puppet/marionette/wrist kill. Only thing that comes close for me is the Tina kill in Nightmare 1.
Damn Skippy I just got this shirt
Freddy is a character with so much potential. I wish the same could be said of people in Hollywood. Maybe they should start consulting with fans!
Awesome review/retrospective. This really was a high point in the 80s horror franchise scene. Hope to see more Elm street movies or the 80's Chuck Russell Blob remake. 👍
Thanks for watching! 🙏💚📼
Rewatched all of NOES recently with my gf. I always look forward to Joe’s Freddy impression. This was another great episode!
Thanks for watching! 🙏💚📼
You should highlight the creepy episodes of the Tales from the Darkside besides the opening intro. LOL I watched this on Sci-Fi (Sy-Fy) and Amazing Stories reruns.
We have a whole side show called Talks from the Darkside dedicated to the entire series! We are currently at the end of season 2. Check it out!
Love you guys
Thanks for the support!! 🙏💚📼
Awesome video guys! 3 was my favourite for a long time, up until a few years ago. I just cant stand kirstens screaming in the first 15 mins of the movie anymore, and some of the music sounds like some cheap tv movie music lol. Everything about the first movie was done expertly and still completely draws me in. I find 3 the most fun, and has my favourite cast of characters, but 1 is just magic overall
Gotta say I like Freddy's Dead. " I'll get you my pretty, and your little soul too! "
Me too. My step-dad took me to see it
The first double episode of Freddy's Nightmares, 'No More Mr. Nice Guy' was directed by Tobe Hooper, & was actually fantastic. One scene in which a recently freed Krueger goes back to his bloody lair & starts enthusiastically talking aloud to various torture devices & objects like 'I'm gonna feed you SOOON'...sick. Only 20% of the entire series is worth the time though lol.
It's the best sequel... Easily 👍👍
Craig Wasson was in Body Double.
She doesn't say Kiersten... She just kind of mumbled Kristen because she's tired
She totally says Kirstin when she’s talking to the little girl. -Joe
Just ordered a pizza and about to get COZY with this sick dumpster ep!
Y'all are the best
Thanks for your support! 🙏💚📼
NO, this is not the best Nightmare on Elm St. sequel... It's the best Nightmare on Elm St. MOVIE! 😁
Which makes it also the best sequel.
Fuckin facts! It was the first nightmare movie I saw as a kid and the rest just disappointed me
"10:00 ...From Nightmare 3 cuz that's my fav..." Joe has that the same opinion 😁
Came in here to post this exact thing.
Way off
Nightmare always had top tier effects and imagination Depts!!!
I’ve met Robert numerous times. Always has been pleasant and kind. He even let me recorded him in character saying “WELCOME TO PRIME TIME B*CTH” once. Legend.
just joined the patreon…bravo
Thank you so much for your support! 🙏💚📼
@@MovieDumpster it was the least I could do
It’s the best sequel and the best Nightmare movie
I think this one has the best likable teen characters and the best balance of scary funny Freddy. Is it the best sequel? I think it is if you don't count New Nightmare. I find New Nightmare story more interesting from a cerebral stand point then the story for this one. For 1 and New Nightmare are my favorites then this one and I also have fun with 4 and Freddy vs Jason. Freddy's Dead is entertaining for what is as a schlock slasher B movie.
BEST IN THE SERIES!
Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors is the best of all the movies in the series imo. A friend and I snuck in to the dollar theater in 1987 to see it at age 11.
I think it would’ve been cool if Penelope’s character’s name wasn’t Jennifer but instead it was Carol Ann (Poltergeist).
ANOES isn’t my favorite franchise, I like Friday The 13th better but it is fun.
Always thought it was a great sequel. I like how in depth you guys go into shows and movies in details. This movie really got me into the band Dokken 🎶
Thanks for watching! 🙏💚📼
For me, this would’ve been my favorite nightmare movie if it wasn’t for them killing off Nancy at the end.
The DVD Boxset that has the 3D for Freddy's Dead was one of the first DVDs we ever got, along with Ghostbusters 1 and 2, and Evil Dead 1 and 2, and Army of Darkness. All the way back before we even got a DVD Player, when we use to use the PS2 for playing DVDs. And when I got the Blu Ray set of Elm Street, was kinda disappointed they didn't have the 3D in that version. But yeah, counting those, the VHS tapes dad had, plus buying it on Streaming, this is one of those series I've seen on all platforms. And I think the reason Wes returned was to kill off Freddy once and for all considering he didn't even want it to be a franchise. He wanted a 1 and done with an ending that would have wrapped it up in the first movie. The studio wanted to change it to something open ended. So Wes comes back, gives Freddy this whole extra backstory, has the ghost of his mum tell them how to beat him, and for good measure, kills off Nancy and her dad, only other stars left from the first movie. Probably feeling like that was done and dusted now, but nope. And out of the sequels, I'll agree, this is the one I watch the most. Well, slightly over 4 months of having this as background for my nightly gaming session, but managed to get through all 180 videos you had in that playlist. Thank you for doing that, and now, whatever ends up next, I'll be able to get to it sooner.
I have two opinions these cats probably don't agree with. 1 - I'd argue that Leatherface is a notch below Jason, Michael, and Freddy regarding their place in popular culture. 2 - I still don't think Freddy's Revenge is a good Nightmare film. I've always dug part 3 though, so we agree on that.
a good soundtrack
Just had a thought about what can we say that hasnt been said before? At least that im aware of.
So on just a story level, joey is clearly the weakest warrior. He can talk. Wow.
But metphorically or thematically, he may just be the most significant one. He didnt just gain the ability to speak. He gained the ability to have his voice heard. And one of the themes of the series, especially at this point, is the kids voices being ignored by their parents and all authority figures which helps freddy thrive. So even though it didnt kill freddy, it was still a solid blow landed.
Might be reading too deep into things, but that sounds like a good theory at the moment. ✌️
That’s a great point!
A great story from the set of the music video. Don Dokken and Robert England...in full Freddie make up...doing blow off of his finger knives 😂😂😂
This is kinda ridiculous how u can’t put a song, a movie soundtrack into a video anymore… great stuff tho! Noes3 was great, just loved the backstory sequences. When I was a kid it kinda scared the living crap outta me😂
Funnily tho, I kinda liked Noes2. Even tho that was a cheesy one, that was my introduction to the series, and on some level it scared me even more and scarred me for years😂
Keep up the great work!!
Thanks for watching! 🙏💚📼
Digging that nose ring. When do I get my 3 wishes?
Must be the Kazaam shirt subliminally making me think that.
I can only make it rain junk food. So, if that’s your wish consider it done! -Joe
@@MovieDumpster I was going to say I have a hankering for taco bell if you want to door dash it or whatever. Do a little fold left arm, fold right arm, nod *sproing* 🧞♂️. Now I have a lap full of chalupas. Thanks djin. I mean djoe. I'll let you know when I think of what I want for my last 2 wishes. But, heads up, they're gonna be gross.
A Nightmare On Elm Street The Dream Warriors stands out as a Nightmare sequel because each distinguishable protagonist had some ability, and Freddy was fighting a brigade of teenagers that understood teamwork is the key to defeating the nefarious supernatural foe.
1:25:37 Granny should've used her mutual partnership with Freddy to help her stop the Van Dams
WHAT? The Philip scene is the BEST!
Dream Warriors and Dream Master are the franchise's highest point.
This is actually my favorite Elm Street movie. It has the perfect balance of horror and comedy. I remember seeing an interview with Robert. According to him, part 2 broke the #1 rule: Freddy isn't supposed to enter the real world. How else was Freddy supposed to get victims? In the movie, it's explained by Jennifer that Joey was a master debater in school. So, I'm guessing that Joey's voice was powerful. So, he had to be silenced. Interesting that you guys mentioned Beetlejuice, but didn't mention the Beetlejuice snake scene. I read somewhere that Chuck Russell was supposed to direct Beetlejuice. That's why both this movie and Beetlejuice have snake scenes. I don't mind Amanda Krueger being in this movie. She had to get Neil to believe. Interesting comment about the Freddy skelton. That makes sense. I thought that the Freddy processing a fetus story was supposed to be for part 2? That was vetoed by Sarah Riser at New Line, because she was pregnant at the time. I saw Freddy's Dead in theater when it came out. I was 8 turning 9. I wasn't scared. I thought that it was funny. The next year, i went to visit my dad. He let me rent part 1. I didn't make it past the opening scene. I believe that i also saw the hallway scene when Nancy runs into the "hall monitor". I believe that Wes and Bruce wrote a script for four. I don't root for Freddy. I root for the good guys. Like in 4, when Rick battles Freddy. Then Alice battles Freddy at the end. Or the battles in Freddy's Dead, with Freddy and Tracy then Freddy and Maggie/Katherine battle. You guys mentioned something the rules of the series being changed, but didn't expand on that. I don't mind that they changed. Like Freddy said in Freddy's Dead: "it might be your dream, but it's my rules". I only hear Kristen being pronounced one way.
I had that DVD box set that came w/2 sets of 3D glasses.They ended up being a novelty, as for whatever reason, they weren't even compatible during the scene...that old school stereoscopic or wtvr did not work on a turn of the century DVD player.
