u/DJA1982

Right off the bat, it's missing the sounds Freddy makes when completing the glove, as he flexes it before the title comes on screen. Also, right after the title, where the blades are ripping through the sheet, no scream there either.

Some other sound effects are a little better, though.

You can hear Glen snoring a lot better when Nancy is outside Rod's cell, just before Krueger jumps out of the bushes. And you can hear students reactions, as Nancy walks up from her nightmare in class, a little better.

The picture is widescreen and actually pillar-boxed during the opening credits to correct a problem an earlier release had with the credits getting cut off on the sides of TV screens.

Unlike previous releases that omitted the final shot of blood coming out of Glens bed, and cut to his mom coming in the door, this has that last extra shot. Only amounting to mere seconds onscreen.

So, a mixed bag really.

A different and interesting take on a favorite.
