Yep, I said it. Part 6 is much better than part 2. At least FD actually had an actual story and continuity that made sense. Part 2 was just a bunch of pages being shot. It was the most disconnected film of the series, and I'm not just talking about how it contradicted the whole premise of the Freddy character. The actual movie itself awkwardly jumps from scene to scene. Freddy's Dead looks like Citizen Kane compared to Freddy's Revenge.
shareEVERYTHING is better than Freddy's Revenge except for that awful remake. Dream Warriors literally saved the series after Revenge threatened to end it.

For me FR is 10x better than FD.
shareI don't know. It had a bigger budget so it was better produced, and it has a more thought-out s/l than Freddy's Revenge for sure, but the dialogue and direction arguably aren't any better. Dead totally lacks suspense and overt darkness, which is one of the areas where Revenge actually thrived.

Coming in September!
Yeah I agree with what you said. Everything about Nightmare 6 just seems off. I can forgive Nightmare 2 (to a point) because the "rules" really weren't firmly established until the third film.
Freddy's Dead has some cool stuff regarding Freddy's past and the death of Carlos is actually pretty f-ed up but everything else about this film is a waste. They should have focused less on the current celebrity and pop culture at the time (like Roseanne Barr and Twin Peaks) and more on the actual Nightmare franchise history.
I mean Freddy's Revenge and Freddy's Dead are the two worst in the series but at least Revenge can argue that they were still going through the growing pains of the franchise. The writer and director of Dead have no excuse. Dead was just far too silly and the Dream Demons stuff came out of nowhere and were just tacked on as an excuse for Freddy to be "really dead" this time. His deaths in 3, 4, and 5 all seemed more "final" than this lame crap he got In this one. The Dream Demons being made up as an excuse to take Freddy's power away is just lazy writing. Like why did they decide to abandon Freddy after his death in this movie instead of after his Nightmare 3, 4, or 5 death?
I can stomach Nightmare 1-5 without much problem (actually I enjoy all five of them) but this film just sucks. Every time I do a Freddy marathon I dread when part six just seems to get closer and closer. Even the remake is better than this film.
