At the funeral, she has a vision of Freddy. She discovers that her son knows all about Freddy Krueger. She called Englund to tell her about her son and her visions of Freddy. He is painting pictures of Freddy. It is all getting weird. She finds her son having a fit and brings him to hospital for tests.

Freddy comes for her and he kills her. Dylan disappears. Heather calls John Saxon for help. She sees her son sleepwalking out of the hospital and Freddy is with him.

Heather discovers a movie script and she takes it with her. They escape. When they get home, she looks at the script and there is a note from Wes Craven saying that Freddy is back where he belongs and saying thanks for playing Nancy. The movie ends with Heather telling her son that the script is a story and reading it to him.
This was a really good addition to the series. I liked it a lot. I thought that it was clever and I liked the story. It was fun to see Freddy back again and the darker Freddy was interesting. He seemed less comical and more frightening which I liked. The cast were great and I enjoyed seeing some of those from the original back for this film. This was a more serious affair and it was better than some of the sequels. I guess Craven wanted to veer away from the former movies which could be a bit silly in parts and make a more serious movie with a demonic Freddy. It worked really well, I think and this was very enjoyable. I will give it a 7/10.

This was not as bad as I thought it would be. I actually liked it. I found that it was quite entertaining in parts and it had a few creepy moments. It is not brilliant by any means, but it is certainly worth a look if you want to pass ninety minutes. I will give it a 5/10.

Cut to present day. The same Sheriff, whose name is Sheriff Reed(Pine) is handing over the reins to his son , Harris(Muhney). There is a new waitress working at the diner in the desert. Her name is Maya(Monroe). She finds blood in the bathroom. She tells her boss, but he says that they find weird stuff all the time. Three guys turn up. They have robbed a casino and they are on the run. One of them is bleeding. They take Maya hostage. One of them turns out to be her ex boyfriend, Alex(Stephen Martines) and the other two are Carlos and Binky(Desmond Askew). They need a car to escape. The Sheriff sees them and there is a shootout. A woman comes out of the diner and says that she is a doctor and she can see to the wounded man. Maya has dropped the car keys in the drain out of spite. Now she has to find them. Things start to get really weird from here onwards.

Reeker comes for the others. Alex sets a trap for him. They set up a bomb to blow him up. It works and they destroy Reeker. More cops show up and sees their bodies. Maya and Harris are alive. The others aren't. They were in some kind of dream world . Binky shot the Sheriff and the Sheriff fried his gun and hit a propane tank which exploded and killed others. The movie ends with a kid who is hearing voices telling him to do things. He kills his babysitter. This suggests that Reeker is not gone after all... This was an okay sequel to Reeker. It was not as good as the original and the story wasn't great, but it was enjoyable all the same. This won't amaze you or show you anything original but if you liked the first one, then you might enjoy this too! I will give it a 5/10.

The movie ends. This was a decent horror movie. I enjoyed it, even though there is not much originality about it and it is more of a teen horror movie than an adult one. I did think that it was entertaining and fun and it had a good cast. If you enjoy slashers, then you will like this one. I recommend it and I will give it a 6/10.
