Not exact matches
While Freddy's Revenge isn't really in keeping with the first
film in the nature of Freddy, whose powers seem to now come with the house, it still has an interesting premise and at least takes a
direction that makes it less of a rehash of the first
film than other
slasher film sequels have been.
Test audiences didn't enjoy the
direction the franchise went with the cult mythology so huge chunks of the
film were re-shot to make the
film feel like your average
slasher, which is what the result felt like.
The near constant background music, lack of relatable characters and lackluster
direction also does its very best to ensure that no sense of tension ever manages to slip into the
film, which renders it useless as a
slasher, either.
