Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kevin ThomasUnfortunately, Aussie helmer Stephen Hopkins adopts a music-video approach, delaying the boring exposition for several reels and usually cutting away from climaxes to destroy much of the film’s impact. Acting is highly variable. Saving grace is the series of spectacular special effects set pieces featuring fanciful makeup, mattes, stopmotion animation and opticals.
Chicago Reader - 7/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumThe few halfway decent ideas in the story (by John Skip, Craig Spector, and Leslie Bohem) and production design (by C.J. Strawn) are mercilessly and fatally crushed by the inept direction of Stephen Hopkins and the flaccid editing.
Georgia Straight - 7/10 by Steve NewtonDon't wait for this one to come out on video-see it in the theatre and sit close to the screen. Roller coasters are always better at the front.
Variety - 5/10 by Variety StaffFifth edition of the hit Nightmare series is a poorly constructed special effects showcase.
Cinema Crazed - 5/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.At the end of the day while it does little to progress the mythos, it's still an enjoyable entry in to the series that entertains consistently.
Miami Herald - 5/10 by Bill CosfordDespite an impressive bag of special effects tricks, old Fred is starting to resemble one of those dead horses that studio execs insist on flogging.
The New York Times - 5/10 by Caryn JamesThough the film hints at psychological intrigue, it never moves beyond the limits of its genre.
Washington Post - 5/10 by Richard Harrington"5" has none of the pizazz of "1" and "3" and is only marginally better than "2" and "4," the worst of the "Elms."
Cinelipsis - 4/10 by Federico FurzanFreddy needs to become a daddy in this gory and gothic sequel to the nightmare adventures that seemed impossible to end. [Full review in Spanish]
Empire Magazine - 4/10 by David HughesDespite an impressive bag of special effects tricks, old Fred is starting to resemble one of those dead horses that studio execs insist on flogging.
