ONCE AGAIN THERE COMES HEAT FROM THE BOILER ROOM!

Freddy is back, but not as we know him from the first film. In this movie he is not using dreams at all. Instead he gets inside the body of Jesse. Jesse is a teenager whos family has moved to - guess where? - BINGO - Elm Street. In fact it is the same house Nancy lived in. There are some obvious mistakes in this sequel, but apart from them, the movie is quite good, with a few scares as well. When Wes Craven created Freddy, he also created some rules. Freddy can not appear, unless it is a dream. Even when you think its real, it is still a dream. I think director Jack Sholder were unware of these rules when he made the sequel, but we forgive you. Anyway, Freddy`s revenge is a little different than the rest of the sequels, and compared to the first one - its a nice try, but nothing more.
On the pointscale, i give it a 4
