This is the last Nightmare on Elm Street VHS demo promotional preview from Media Home Entertainment! Why? Because for Freddy's Dead it would be the first under New Line Home Video!
Maybe they needed a little humor inserted into that situation. After all, when Nightmare On Elm Street 4: The Dream Master came out in 1988, it was the highest-grossing movie that the Nightmare On Elm Street had ever had, with Ticket Sales between $49,000,000-$50,000,000. However, the next movie, which came out in 1989, known as Nightmare On Elm Street 5: The Dream Child, it did less than half, in the way of Ticket Sales at the Box Office, only bringing in $22,000,000 or so. Talk about a harsh dose of reality! The script was still SOMEWHAT doable, but they'd made some major mistakes. One:The Kill Count-Freddy Krueger only ended up killing 3 victims, as opposed to the previous movie, where he scored 6 victims. Two: Freddy's dialogue-Thisvwas a real sticking point with a lot of the fans, which saw Freddy go from mouthy, although still vicious, to corny one-liners, that were too explanatory, and, more often than not, just out-right stupid. That whole movie came off as half-baked...and, now that we know that things were definitely rushed (As it relates to scripts, lines, and such), we can understand why it did as badly as it did... And don't even get me started on Freddy's Dead:The Final Nightmare, from 1991. Yeech! That thing actually made it's predecessor look at least halfway decent!
At 1:50, are they referring to the "Bill Johnson" that played Leatherface in Texas chainsaw massacre part 2, also released from media home entertainment on VHS
@@ronaldshank7589The rumor is the footage is destroyed but they could still do SD inserts from the laserdisc or use the UK 35mm prints that surprisingly weren't censored. I think they just don't care enough to put forth the effort but I'm sure we'll get one someday
@@brandonspain12345 Your comment clearly shows you have no idea how home media worked in the 1990s. Most tapes would come out for rental only at $100 or more Maybe next time do some research before you comment.
