I voted for Freddy's Dead: the Final Nightmare.
To me, this movie was the perfect ending for the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, with bringing Krueger out of the dream world and into the real. However, I didn't like how he was killed, with sticking him to the pole and shooting him with every Medieval weapon available.
It was interesting to see that a Horror villain had actually won. What do I mean by won? Krueger had killed all the Elm Street kids, and had finally accomplished his goal (or so they said with John). That was exciting to me the first time I saw this movie, as a Horror icon usually never succeeds in his goals as he is always stopped before they can be carried out, but this made me want to watch the movie to the very end to see what happened next.
Don't get me wrong the others were great too, but this is the only movie in the series that had me rewind back if I had missed a single scene due to naturally blinking.
In this day and time it would be difficult to make Krueger scary, he's been in so many movies, and he talks. It's difficult to make anyone who talks scary, it takes away from their mystique, and so the film makers knew they would slowly progress from barely-talkative slasher Krueger into comical-but-still-badass Krueger in the later installments to the Nightmare on Elm Street series.

I gotta go with the first one. Although, I love Part 2 and Freddy's Dead quite a bit as well.

Nightmare on elm street was the first horror movie i ever watched,so naturally i'm a fan..
Dig this.my mom introduced me to horror,she also loves horror but not as much as i do now though..lol
She told me that the reason she never took me to see friday the 13th when it came out was because it was too violent for a child..
I was like wow mom,Nightmare on elm street was violent too..i will never understand that...hehe

Well the first Nightmare is actually pretty tame as far as violence goes. At least compared to some of the later ones. The horror in that movie is mostly psychological. She probably figured you weren't old enough to be scared by that aspect yet.

Well I'd say the girl getting dragged up the wall covered in blood is just as violent as anything in Friday the 13th

I voted for the original, but I love these three equelly: A Nightmare on Elm Street A Nightmare on Elm Street 3 - Dream Warriors Wes Craven's New Nightmare Nightmare 1 is tame compaired to the sequels!?!? A girl being cut open and dragged across the ceiling leaving a trair and puddle of blood is way more violent then turning someone into a meat ball in my book.
