JB & The Chop Do: A Nightmare On Elm Street 3 – Dream Warriors (1987)

Moving on to the next Elm Street film, this is one of the last few that the audience seems to have appreciated, and it touted some grand effects. I also think that this was one of the last pretty decent ones before it went straight into all that cheese – and not all particularly good cheese, either.  It’s pretty obvious that I like it BUT what did the Chop think of the third Krueger outing?

SYNOPSIS: Nancy has grown up and become a psychiatrist specializing in dream therapy. She meets a group of children at a local hospital facing Freddy Krueger, the same demon she once encountered in her sleep. One of them is Kristen, who has the power to draw other people into her dreams. Working with a male doctor assigned to the case, Nancy helps the kids realize their special abilities within the nightmare world. When Freddy captures one of her charges, she leads a rescue attempt into Krueger’s domain, in hopes of putting his spirit to rest once and for all. – via IMDB

JB: Well, Chop, this is one that I quite enjoyed. How about you?

CHOP: Yeah, JB, I liked it fine but (for real???):

JB: I know this one wasn’t like the greatest, and it sure as hell had flaws, but I had a lot of fun with it. There was plenty of cheese, but it was still more serious than most.

CHOP: I really couldn’t get past the big penis worm thing (and it happened so early) BUT the penis worm did lead to a fucking fantastic post – remember THIS??

JB: Hahahaha! Yes, yes I remember that just fine! Alright… there was the whole penis worm mistake and all that (though there was an impressive amount of work that went into making that happen), but then this death is still one of my all-time favourites of the series. I thought it was just awesome, though it was pretty sad that they pegged off the only semi-cutie to check out so early. Besides that, you can’t deny the scene is great and the puppet master brutal.

CHOP: Speaking of cuties, remember when Patricia Arquette looked like this???

CHOP: But – back to the movie. I really liked the first one but that second was kind of iffy in that Male Ass kind of way. Remember, I had never seen any of the sequels except for this one, on a challenge from a couple of bloggers. HAHAHA. That post is so old even YOU haven’t even looked at it LOL. I didn’t love it any more the second time around.

JB: Granted, Dreams Warriors had some cheesy one liners all over it, and some things that were just mad. However, every here and there was a gem to be found. I had a good giggle over this one:

JB: I know that there were a lot of people that bitched about the drug section of this one, like Taryn that was an addict, and Freddy that preyed on that. I won’t lie, I thought those track marks were fucking nasty. YUCK YUCK YUCK YUCK YUCK. And yes. Now everyone will suffer with me.

CHOP: Those fucking sucky things on her arm were nasty. Kind of like this:

JB: Yeah, kinda exactly like that. What the hell was that even all about? As for your pic… I don’t even think that I want to know…

CHOP: LOL – do you not remember that part?? HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Well – there’s also some of this:

CHOP: And, since we’re into GIFs:

JB: Yep, I remember the part! It was pretty nasty. Like… really not the way you want your luck to end…

CHOP: I did kind of like how Langenkamp was in this one again. for some reason that struck me as cool even though she can’t act for shit. I like how this ALWAYS shows up every time I google Heather Langenkamp:

JB: Who in the hell is that?!

CHOP: LOL – I have no fucking clue but she shows up every time I google Langenkamp. So does this:

CHOP: I did not put that arrow on there. If wanted to showcase the pimple, I would do something like this:

JB: Naturally, always subtle my Chop. Love it.
