The Nightmare On Elm Street (Seven Disc Collector's Edition)

A really nice collection for a true fans. Contains 8 disks, 7 with original series movies and one with encyclopaedia of thee series. Nice design. very DVD packed separately with original poster-art works, descriptions. All movies has special features lie commentary by directors and actors, widescreen versions of film, original and new mixed soundtracks, cast biographies and etc. DVD's also contains of trivia games, interactive screenplay and interactive Freddy character to haunt your computer. Nice quality. Horror genre classic, spiced up with some comedy elements.

For those of you don't know about these films, they feature a character called Freddy Kruger, who is a sort of supernatural bogeyman capable of invading dreams and, if he kills you in your dream, you're dead in real life. Certainly this is an original concept, and as the series develops we see more and more imaginative ways in which he finds to kill people, as well as some of his backstory. It has to be said, however, the latter films do get a little repetative, and the "horror" aspect fades a little as Freddy's dark humour appears, especially no 5 "The Dream Child": although this is probably the worst film, it's still OK. The 2nd film seems to stick out like an interloper from another series, but again, isn't bad. Other than that the general standard of entertainment is pretty good. It has to be said the features are a bit thin, for an important series like this, with 7 films, you'd expect a disk or two of extras. Recommended for its exploration of an interesting concept.

I love the Nightmare on Elm Street series. I bought this to replace missing movies. Love Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger.

One of the best horror series in my opinion.

Good movie

This is the ultimate 'bad' guy that everyone loves. From the terrifying original to the very jumpy 'new nightmare', these 'nightmare on elm street' films belong in every horror film fans collection. I used to be scared witless at the 1st one when i was younger and have now found, when watching it again as an adult, that I am still a bit tense when watching late at night. It's great having all 7 films in one, so I can watch them again and again. Freddy Krueger rules !!

A great set I missed out in my youth, but was able to purchase years later! An excellent seller, brilliant films & in very good condition! 5/5

Any Freddie fans out there will love ths collectors edition. 7 brilliant discs with scores of special features on discs, so if really want to add some 1st rate horror to a great DVD collection then this is the one for you, and at such a good price it wont be in stock for long so order now. Well worth spending a few quid on......... Brilliant

I just ordered this box set, and can't wait for it to come in the mail tomorrow. I have seen all movies previously, and love each one for different reasons. Nightmare on Elm Street 1: This is a great movie. Though like others have said, I wish it had more Freddy in it. He was truely a scary figure in this film. This was also my first time seeing Johnny Depp in a movie, and it's obvious his death scene is the most memorable. Nightmare on Elm Street 2: This nightmare sorta through me off track. Instead of him being in dreams, he seems to be more like the devil and invade peoples bodies. While this film is probably the worst of the series, it's still a good watch. For me, the scariest scene is towards the begining when Freddy takes over the school bus of children. Nightmare on Elm Street 3: I remember renting this movie over and over. While some parts in this movie were rather comical, other parts are extremely frightening. I think it's scary because these children are locked up in a mental ward, and are completely useless. No one believes them because of the situation they're in. I wish Patricia would have stayed for the 4th installment. Nightmare on Elm Street 4: This movie would have been much better if it had kept Patricia. But the other girl did a good job at being killed none the less. I didn't really enjoy watching Freddy in a classroom full of bright light. I think that's when he starts being comical. He's much better and scarier in dark places. Still, this movie was good, and introduced us to Alice, the star of the 5th nightmare. Nightmare on Elm Street 5: Despite what other reviewers have said, I love this instalment of the series. The idea that Freddy would invade an unborn childs mind in order to kill his mother is beyond genius. I also love how you really get an idea of who Freddy was before becoming this monster. You meet his mother, and learn her horrible story and Freddys unfortunante conception. Freddys Dead: This movie was okay. It goes into more detail about how Freddy became who he is. This had to be the funniest Nightmare yet. I don't know which was funnier: Freddy playing video games, Roseanne & Tom Arnold being thrown in, or Johnny Depp making a camio after he was killed off the original nightmare. Either way, this film is great because it lets you know Freddy, and almost makes you feel sorry for him. You also get introduced to those little pesky dream things that took over Freddys body. Wes Cravens New Nightmare: I loved this film. It did give Freddy a 'real' feel. I thought it was genius for Wes Craven himself to be in the film. Robert England played himself as well. The only complaint I have with this movie is how they made Freddy look. The new and improved Freddy for the 90's isn't even that scary looking. He looks like he has muscle exposed on his face instead of being burnt, and his new high tech glove reminds me of the terminator. Also, his clothes have changed. He looks like he's wearing Gucci instead of the same 1970's clothes he had on when he was burnt. I suggest if they make anymore Freddy movies, they go back to the leather glove, burnt body, and 70's apparell. In many ways, I wish this box set wasn't released untill they were finished making Freddy movies. Then I wouldn't have to buy an extra movie that won't fit in the box in January. I haven't seen Freddy VS Jason yet, but I hope he isn't the same freddy we seen in the new nightmare. Overall, the Nightmare On Elm Street series is a great set for anyone who loves horror films with a twist.

Came in with no damages

エルム街シリーズが好きなら買って損のないBOXです。 シリーズ毎の好き嫌いはありますがこの値段ならコレクションとして十分価値があります。

I got this on sale for an amazing deal at $17. After tax and shipping, it was under $24 for 5 discs of 7 Nightmare on Elm Street films and loads of special features (special features with each film + disc 5 is exclusively special features). The shipping was super fast too! This arrived on March 20, well in advance of the estimated delivery date of March 25 - April 4. The item arrived in pristine condition and was delivered with care. The item itself is packaged so compactly with 5 discs in one regular sized blu-ray case and a sleeve. Love that this is a space saver. This is a perfect addition to my horror movie collection and is a steal for the whole Nightmare on Elm Street collection. So happy with this purchase. I recommend for all Freddy fans - you can't go wrong with the price and in one case, it saves room on your shelf to add other items to your collection :) Sweet dreams!

「エルム街の悪夢」はジャンルは、「ホラーコメディ」では無く完全な「ホラー（スプラッタ）」 でありながら、「暗い」「陰気くさい」と言った概念を空の果てまでぶっ飛ば～す （個人的な感想）世にも稀な「明るいホラー映画」（しかも殺人鬼系）だ！！(^.^)/~~~ とは言え「エルム街の悪夢」はれっきとした真面目なホラー映画であり、 恐怖をあおるシーンもしっかり盛り込まれてます。（自分も子供の頃は怖くて観れなかった） 💀part１ 「エルム街の悪夢」 「寝る」という、生きていく上で、絶対に必要な生命活動そのもので 人々を殺害して行くという、回避できない恐ろしさを見せつけるフレディ堂々の登場。 主人公ナンシーの機転を利かせた作戦により、家中に現実世界へフレディを引きずりた フレディ、彼女が事前に家中にトラップを仕掛けていたトラップを全て豪快に喰らう、 フレディはまるで「ホームアローン」並みのリアクションで、既に素質（？）も見せる。 💀part２ 「エルム街の悪夢２」フレディの復讐 フレディ復活。しかし何かが違う（？）何とあれだけ１作目でナンシーにセクハラ行為 以前の問題の精神攻撃をしておきながら、今度のターゲットは男子！（しかも彼女有り） その上「悪夢」なのに悪夢の世界より１作目でフルボッコにされた現実世界への進出を 選ぶという、いろんな意味で「らしくない」フレディが暴れる。 💀part３ 「エルム街の悪夢３」惨劇の館 男子はもうやめたのかターゲットを女子高生クリスティンに変更。やっといつもの彼 で一安心。更に大人になったナンシーと再会し、タイトルの「惨劇の館」（悪夢の中の） でナンシーと子供達VSフレディの戦いが熱い！！ 尚、ここでフレディは「コスプレ」と「変身」に完全に目覚める。 そしてエンディング曲をロックバンドが歌うという最後まで明るさをキープ♪ 💀part４ 「エルム街の悪夢４」ザ・ドリームマスター最後の反撃 何か屈辱的な復活を遂げるフレディ。復活早々、前作（part３）で生き残ったターゲットを 真っ先に殺害するというフレディの負けず嫌いな一面が判明。 新たなターゲット、アリスを狙う。夢と現実の曖昧な世界観にピッタリな名前なヒロイン。 ちなみにフレディは空手と忍者が同じと思っている模様。嗚呼～違うと教えてあげたい・・・。 💀part５ 「エルム街の悪夢５」ザ・ドリームチャイルド 本作のフレディはゴシックホラー調でややシリアスな展開。 タイトル通り「胎児」の夢に巣食い殺戮を重ねる、夢の中で胎児を惑わす その姿は、殺人鬼であり悪魔（夢魔）として再確認させられる。 人間側とフレディ側の母と子の物語が平行して描かれる。 シリーズ中でも一二を争うシリアス度、しかしそこは流石（？）フレディ コスプレは欠かさない。そして何故かエンディング曲がピップホップ（？） ラップ（？）でシリーズ中もっとも明るいという、最後まで予想できない それが「エルム街の悪夢」シリーズやねん！！ 💀part６ 「エルム街の悪夢」ザ・ファイナルナイトメア これまで続いた「エルム街の悪夢」シリーズの完結編。 完結編だからとシリアス度は、前作（part５）を上回るかと思いきや、 まさかのシリーズ中最も明るい（と個人的に思う）というある意味衝撃作。 その明るさは半端ない！！そして扱うテーマは重い！！ ここまでシリーズを観てくると、「エルム街の悪夢」シリーズはフレディと その家族の因果の物語としても見れる。 「完結編」である以上フレディは本作で「死ぬ」のですが、その過程が、 １作目を思い起こさせる、フレディならではの散り様に感動すら覚える。 そしてエンディング曲は歌詞に「フレディ・デッド」という言葉が入った派手ロック！！ 💀part７ 「エルム街の悪夢」ザ・リアルナイトメア 本作はシリーズ番外編に当たり、日本では劇場未公開作なので、 この７作目がしっかり収録されているのは有難いことですね。 なので今までの「エルム街の悪夢」とは毛色がまた別な７作目。 ざっくり言うと、いわゆる「楽屋オチ」版「エルム街の悪夢」なんです。 映画「エルム街の悪夢」を制作した関係者や俳優たちがフレディの悪夢に 襲われるという２重構造のストーリーになってます。 ここではフレディことロバート・イングランドさんが「まんま」の役で 登場！！その他ナンシー達キャスト陣、さらにフレディの生みの親である ウェス・クレイヴン監督や制作会社「NEW LINE CINEMA」（ニューラインシネマ） や代表取締役社長が「ガチ」で「リアル」に登場するという稀な映画。Σ(･ω･ﾉ)ﾉ！ なのでここでのフレディは今までと異なりルックスも明らかに違う特殊バージョン で登場でぇす！でもスケベネタは絶対外さない、それがフレディ・クルーガー！★★★ 制作会社「NEW LINE CINEMA」（ニューラインシネマ）があったからこそ「エルム街の悪夢」を 始め、多くの良作ホラー映画が制作出来たんだと自分は思います。 そういう意味で「エルム街の悪夢」ザ・リアルナイトメアは、会社のフレディ達ホラー映画への 想いの結晶と言っても過言ではないと思っております。 残念ながら現在は「ワーナー・ブラザース」に吸収され、その一部となっています。 でも「NEW LINE CINEMA」（ニューラインシネマ）の、ロゴマークは残ってくれた。 （フイルムをイメージしたデザインでNEW LINE CINEMA）と描いてある） そして今もホラー映画を制作し続けてます。 個人的に特に制作会社のロゴマークは、ゴジラ好きの影響で重視しています。 「東宝」のロゴマークまで消えてしまうのはあまりにも寂しすぎる～( ﾉД`)ｼｸｼｸ…
