This week we're looking at 1987's A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. It took three movies to make Freddy Krueger Freddy as we know him today. An empire of horror was launched off the back of this movie: toys, comic books, video games, masks, everything. Dream Warriors dropped at a critical moment for A Nightmare On Elm Street, after the critical failure of Freddy's Revenge the IP ended up on the chopping block at New Line. If this movie didn't perform the studio planned on shelving future sequels. Boy did it, perform! This is our favorite entry in the series and this episode of Bring Me The Axe really makes it clear.

Ignoring the events of Freddy's Revenge entirely, Dream Warriors picks up where the original left off. Nancy Thompson is back to assist the teenage patients at a psychiatric hospital who find themselves hunted in their dreams once again by Freddy Krueger. Utilizing the special psychic talent of one patient, Nancy gathers the patients together where they reveal their special dream-world talents, talents that will come in awfully handy when the time comes to face their fears and take Freddy on once and for all, or at least until the following year when the next Nightmare on Elm Street sequel dropped.
