- If you like incredibly bleak tales of motherhood with semi-uplifting conclusions, then you'll love this full movie reaction to Nightmare On Elm Street 5: The Dream Child!
Shout out to the dad in this movie, he goes through quite the character arch between the two movies from going to a disapproving alcoholic father to a really supportive and caring dad, it’s quite the transformation and a good use of Continuity
@@oni6903 Exactly, he was never mad or upset with her for getting pregnant, he was supportive and always had her back, and he defended her and her rights. And this was all in 1989, so he really is a cool dad.
It's a real shame that it was in the service of two...not very good films lol
One of the few examples of continuity through this series
@@princesssookeh i honestly love part 4. This one not so much lol
"It'd be good to hear a boy running through the house again."
How does Alice’s father have the most character development in the whole franchise.
He changed his life! Congratulations sir.
This one held up well for me when i watched it a couple weeks ago, I actually kind of respected its handling of Freddys mom and the trauma/horrors of being a mother. And its a small detail but I also love Alice's dad returning and doing a complete 180 as a character. Not all of it works, but I am just so glad Yvonne lives
Agreed about Yvonne. Justice for Yvonne. But I still need to rewatch the film. Which I'd love to do soon.
The way I just legit cried getting this notification I missed you feels like I'm seeing my mom for the first time after years😭
That’s sad
Um ok…
Um kinda weird man
Dang to bad idgaf 😭
Actually not sad I feel very happy but thanks tho
Part 7 or "Wes Cravens new nightmare" is such a great movie can't wait until you make it there after these. It's very meta haha
It’s such a wild ride.
Part 1, 3, and New Nightmare are my absolute favorites in the series.
Agreed. That was a great conclusion of Freddy!
Right that’s what I’m ready for, unfortunately you gotta sit through trash before it 😭
@@GC5295 “The Nancy Trilogy” is what I call it haha
Those are my favorite too. If I’m introducing the franchise to someone who isn’t a huge horror fan, I show them those 3. Sometimes nightmare 2 cus I love a gay time
One thing I love to pieces about this film is that it is YET ANOTHER horror movie wherein Kelly Jo Minter survives. In a genre notably unforgiving to its characters of Color, Minter holds the distinction of surviving not one, not two but THREE horror films (Nightmare 5, The People Under the Stairs and where she really shines, SPOILERS.............................Popcorn). I love her so much.
Justin Roebuck-Lafleur And here I thought I was the only one who remembered "Popcorn" (1991) "Buy a bag, and go home in a box!"🍿💀🤣
Well you just gave spoilers for Popcorn, if Alanda ever watches that in the future.
She is awesome in Popcorn, i saw that recently and fangirled because of my knowledge of her in this film!
@@TheEndKing its not a huge deal that she doesnt die, she is basically never put in danger
She survived 4 horror films = she was also in 1987's _The Lost Boys_ though you see most of her in the Deleted Scenes. She works at the video rental store which Max runs.
When you compare this movie in the last movie you see how much of a good father Alice's dad became. He not only supported the pregnancy but defended her against Dan's parents
“I know you think it’s Dans but um” 🤣🤣 me over here dying laughing. Um Alanda it is dans baby.
"It’s giving sentient melted candle” 😂
Mr. Johnson has some of the best character growth. The actor deserves all the praise
The way you kept calling that poor innocent baby a demon had me in stitches lmao
I know right. I'm like, "What did the baby do 🥺?".... Lol, I think she thought it was Freddie's
Nah, he always creeped me tf out lol. Even seeing him in other shows and movies after this I still felt creeped out by him bc of this movie and the movie isnt scary in the least bit. Its just that kid…
Hes the kid from the beginning of Jurassic Park too.
One thing to remember about part 4: They were writing the script basically as they were shooting it, which is why it's a bit shocking how coherent it actually is.
Awww sweetie that was a rough one wasn't it. I've never seen you look so bored and I don't blame, more power to you in fact for watching it at all, that's true fandom. As always your commentary was golden ❤🏴
Kevin Williamson's Sick is a really fun and tense movie that takes place during the height of COVID. I think you'd like it 😁
1:42 This was a theatrical release. It came out the same summer as Ghostbusters II, Batman, Honey I Shrunk The Kids, The Karate Kid Part III, Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade, Friday The 13th VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, The Abyss, Lethal Weapon 2, Uncle Buck, When Harry Met Sally, Do The Right Thing, Weekend At Bernie's, Road House, Major League, Rain Man.
Good year for film
@@RebelKingfrom1995 84 and 89 were the best years for film in the 80's.
So excited to see your post!! So happy you're still on the Freddy train! You gotta keep pushing through the Friday the 13ths as well so you can get to Freddy vs Jason!
Also, not sure if you noticed, but the actress who plays Yvonne also played Fool's sister in The People Under the Stairs. And the boy who played Jacob was the boy in Jurassic Park at the beginning with the whole dinosaurs aren't scary, they're like giant turkeys scene.
-Kelly Jo Minter (was also in The Lost Boys / The Principal / House Party '90)
-Whit Hertford (was also in Poltergeist 2 / The Addams Family '91 / Mousehunt / Moving McAllister / Dark Reel)
I'm waiting for the Freddy vs Jason reaction. I loved that movie when I was in my teens. It's at least entertaining.
12:15 "Fetus Deletus" lol, it's like the Disney Chanel Original Movie/Life Time movie crossover of Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century that never happened
This was my favorite growing up😂 not sure why, but still holds a spot in my heart
Same here I love it, I find it so entertaining, so unique with the dream sequences, the kills, I love Alice, the idea of Freddy using her baby’s dreams to get victims is really original, and more backstory on Amanda.
Same here! It’s very nostalgic for me.
I thought it was just me!
if it was like the first or second one you watched, that's probably why lol
I always laughed throughout this movie but the kid is super creepy.
I really hope you check out 1988's The Blob at some point. Directed by Chuck Russell, who did Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, and written by Frank Darabont, who did Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, and The Mist. A lot of familiar faces and equally parts funny and gore. Definitely a fun watch.
It’s 3 am and I took my sleeping meds but I WILL STAY AWAKE AND WATCH THIS RIGHT NOW. I’ve missed you SO much. We all have!!!
Girl it does look silly now but I was 14 when this came out and this was quite advanced for that time. It wasn't the best one but way more scary back then. Thanks for reacting. Always fun!!!
the way you mimicked that "mark noo!" had me dead!🤣
I saw Dream Warriors as a young teen and to this day, I’m devastated about the end. I’m all about Nancy too. And he used her father to deceive her. Wes Craven’s New Nightmare is a film I know you will enjoy. And you’re so right! The cinematography in Elm Street 4 is mind blowing!!
This is was the era when Freddy also had his own TV show.. "FREDDY'S NIGHTMARES"... which was an anthology show that Freddy hosted like the Cryptkeeper.. the first episode (called No More Mr. Nice Guy) was about Freddy's backstory and stars Robert Englund as Fred during and after his botched trial.. might be worth a reaction (the other episodes are just hosted by but not about Freddy). Speaking of Robert, this was a really hard time for him, having to go from doing a TV show to doing this movie.. the workload and constant makeup application and removal really did a number on him.
Yay! Welcome Back Yolanda!
Hope your doing good! Excited to watch another movie with you :)))
“Fetus Deletus,” is now my new favorite saying. 😂😂😂😂You always make me laugh so hard, girl. Thank you for that! I can definitely use all the laughter I can get lately! Both you and Zzavid cheer me up pretty quickly, and I appreciate, and love you both! I also appreciate all of the work that goes into making these videos. You both have such quick wit! ❤️😂😘🥰❤️
Come on down to Ray's Abortion Clinic "No fetus can beat us... we'll fix your banger with a hanger"
@Michigan J Frog omg, HAHAHAHAAHHAHA!!!!! 😂😂😂😂 I love this community so much!
"This will be the first day of my life I take a Ho' Bath." I lost it. I love your commentaries.
I have always found this movie to be the most disturbing and genuinely unsettling of the Nightmare on Elm Street movies. The fact that Freddy targets his youngest prey in it is one thing ,but the gothic production design/setting and the actual reliving of Freddy's conception and birth was a TRIP! Of all of the movies in the franchise this one always feels the most like an authentic and actual nightmare to me!
Interesting Facts about A Nightmare On Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989) The laughter heard at the end, right before the credits roll, is a clip of Vincent Price laughing at the end of Michael Jackson's song, "Thriller". Price's laughter is sampled at the beginning of Kool Moe Dee's song, "Let's Go", which is played during the film's end credits. (2) Stephen Hopkins was given just four weeks to shoot and a further four weeks to edit the film. This meant that he had to shoot on one stage while the crew dressed the other, so they could shoot almost continually. After he made it, the studio was so impressed, that he was given the task of directing Predator 2 (1990), which is strange, considering that this movie was released by New Line Cinema, and Predator 2 (1990) was released by the 20th Century Fox. (3) The famous song is changed. Original: One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six, grab your crucifix. Seven, eight, gonna stay up late. Nine, ten, never sleep again. Edited: One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six, grab your crucifix. Seven, eight, better stay awake. Nine, ten, he's back again... (4) The end credits song, "Let's Go" by Kool Moe Dee was actually a diss track to LL Cool J. The two rappers were feuding at the time this film was being made. (5) Lisa Wilcox's name appears on the opening credits, but not in the ending credits.
This was not a direct-to-TV release, but due to the fact that it was so rushed after the success of Part 4, it could've and probably should've been lol. This movie got passed around the neighborhood and dubbed to blank VHS tapes once it hit the video stores, so that's where it made its money. Not the best, but it kinda represents the end of a special moment for kids who grew up in that era like myself. I loved Kelly Jo Minter as well, so that adds to it lol
🎉🎉WELCOME BACK QUEEN , MY QUEEN🎉🎉 you did this for me….💜 Thank you…🙏🏾 Happy you back on Fredrick time! 😂
This is one of the most underrated entries in the series idc it’s a classic to me
Although not a great movie, I've always kind of liked it too..just like with 4, there is potential there but the script and some of the acting just doesn't do the story justice
I love how you called it a “hoe bath” 🤙🏽💯 where I’m from we call it a bird bath lol 🐦
The Dream Child isn't a great Elm Street sequel, but as a stand-alone gothic supernatural horror movie, it almost works. I only revisit it for Alice, and believe that she's criminally underrated in the final girl discussion. Next is Freddy's Dead, which is still not so great, but a fun finale and semi-reboot made for the 90s crowd. Worth a watch before digging into New Nightmare, which returns a ton of the series' cast and crew in meta legacy sequel fashion that predates Scream. Perhaps Wes Craven's best original film.
“A ceramic voodoo doll of yourself on a bed of crudité?!” how are you so linguistically creative 😂😂
Everytime you say Frederick I die laughing! New nightmare is one of my faves in the series.
In regards to the Nightmare franchise, it is a masterpiece (like Logan was to the Xmen). But the absolute most entertaining movie is Freddy vs Jason. That is just a Rollercoaster of fun.
MY QUEEN IS BACK!!!! 🔥🔥♥️♥️ omggg if only how much you knew you made me smile with the notification popping because I was having a bad emotional breakdown, then BAM that notification. You always make my day/night with your videos. 🥺💙💙
And just for the record, when Freddy Krugue was born, he was born, looking like a very normal baby, the scene they show us in the movie is his mother giving rebirth to him, which is why he looks like the scar disfigured Freddy from the movies.
This movie grew on me over the years. It had a lot of issues on and off set, but sadly it's Alice's final film. ☹
Are you going to be watching the documentary on the franchise "Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy"? Came out in 2010, almost 4hrs long, but totally worth it
Great documentary. I own it.
My fave franchise from the 80s. Loved this series but this is definitely one of the lesser installments, lol. Although, I loved Kelly Jo Minter in this movie. Totally didn't recognize for years that she managed to survive three horror movies as a Black woman in the 80s: NoES pt. 5, People Under the Stairs, and Popcorn. Loved her. Freddy was a fave when it came to the 80s horror icons.
So good to see Alanda's face and that beautiful spirit. Such a lovely light. 🖤💜🖤
I thought the fact that Freddy was using the babies dreams to strike at any time was a brilliant idea.
Your yawn halfway through the video summed it up perfectly.
omg I forgot how they re-created the nun scene. That really is terrifying!
this one is actually my favorite one lol I can watch this over and over with no problems , idky i like it so much , im thinking maybe the concept is what i enjoy so much about it.
I remember telling someone that Freddy's mom was a nun. They thought I was lying 😂. Then they watched the series.
"Fetus Deletus"....I just died 😂😂😂😂
I was just waiting for the final read of this film and you did not disappoint 😅 happy 2023. ✨
New Nightmare is the next good one from what I recall.
I think I speak for all of us when we say we love you & your commentary so much, but I been patiently waiting on you to do the official trailer for scream 6 that released 3 days ago!! It's so gritty, brutal and awesome!!! ❤
Her skeptical friend was Fool's big sister in The People Under The Stairs.
Alice will forever be my favorite Elm Street girl. She fought Freddy twice and lived to tell the tale. Good luck on the next one but New Nightmare rules
3, 4, 5 all go together. Kristen had the power to pull people into her dreams which she had full control over. In 4, before she’s killed, she gives Alice her power, who CANNOT control it. When Alice falls asleep, any one she’s close to who also falls asleep gets pulled into her nightmare. In 5, once she gets pregnant, the fetus who supposedly spends much of its development sleeping, is dreaming, anyone who Alice is close to who’s also asleep gets pulled into a nightmare. The problem with this movie is that it was conceived as a metaphor for fears of pregnancy. Like how the Babadook is a metaphor for mother hood. Everything that happens in the movie is a reflection of those fears. But it’s not something that much of the audience would relate to especially if you never had children. There is an extended release somewhere where the kills are slightly different. Like Greta ISNT Just stuffed full of food, Freddy actually begins to feed Greta her own insides.
I've always been sober when I sit through this one. Maybe having a few drinks is the way to go. Anyway push on through part 6, it gets better.
Man, I watched Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3 (1990) while drunk from a mojito and that shit was still trash! Much worse film than Dream Child.
Don't judge me yall but this one is lowkey in my top 3 favorite in the franchise🫣😂.
Girl Im so ready for this Coif!!! And what you were probably confused about with the TV part is that there was a "Nightmare On Elm Street" TV show that lasted for 2 seasons from 1988-1990. So yea the good news is this 1 & the next are universally the worst ones, but New Nightmare is 1 of the best & I am SO excited for you to get that 1. Of the originals this is my least favorite (the remake is my least favorite of them all). But yea power through, I'd recommend watching Freddy's Dead & New Nightmare back to back...just in case you really hate Freddy's dead lol. Regardless you made this one great lol. It works good for being a kid though I'll say that, I discovered this one around 10-12ish....and still knew it was bad, but the imagination at a young age goes a long way lol
I'm so happy you reminded me of that Pagemaster movie! I was trying to remember the name of that film for months now...
Omg when I moved into my apartment I had my window open and heard kids singing ring around the rosey. My heart jumped out my chest. Kidding singing nursery rhymes is soo scary
Cant wait to see what you make of New Nightmare, having Nancy back was a blessing! Hope you have a wonderfull 2023
It was released in the theater and if you didn't care for part four you are really not going to like this one. Always a pleasure to see you lady Alanda. ☺️
If you think this was bad, get ready for Nightmare 6 🤣🤣. That's the one I have probably revisited the least, at least this one has fun sequences like Gretta's dead, and Alice returning. But yeah, New Nightmare is when it gets better, but after that you have to watch Freddy vs Jason (you need to watch up until Jason goes to Hell, which is film 9)
Yep. Jason x was made before freddy vs jason (FvJ is friday 11 and nightmare 8, jason x is friday 10). Buuuut jason x takes place after the events of FvJ so you're free to watch it before or after - it doesn't spoil anything due to it being released before it.
This one was okay. Not one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing! Have you done a reaction to Hellraiser?
I actually like Freddy’s Dead a little better than The Dream Child. I mean they’re both bad but still
Just finished getting into bed all cozy until I saw the notification, Happily said ALANDA!! Missed seeing you girl!!! Glad you’re back!! ❤️❤️ also you look good with straight hair! ❤️💛
Alanda! This hair is so stunning and gorgeous!
I absolutely love you reacting to nightmare on elm street thank you for this video 🥰🥰
Yay glad you’re back, hope you’re feeling better. This movie was…well it just was haha.
This was actually one of my favorite movies
Wow this is actually my first time seeing this one. I kinda gave up on the series after Part 4 and i didn't hear good things about 5 or 6 so thanks for the entertaining cliff notes version! I do love that you're willing to sit thru knowingly bad movies. So few reactors do, as they just want the good stuff, but a few shit storms can help you appreciate the sunlight more!
You’re really missing out if you haven’t seen part 7 The New Nightmare
Getting a new notification from alanda is like Christmas morning
Five is uniquely, awesomely bad. Lol
I think you’ll love New Nightmare, its like a weird self-spoof, meta thing, but really great.
This was fun as always, thanks!
Oh man I like this part lol my sister and I always go “Jacob he’s not your father! “ all dramatic 😂😂😂😂im 42 I grew up w these so I’ll forever hold them dear,.can’t wait till u get to new nightmare
Didn't know how much I missed your Elm Street reactions till I got this notification. You even made this one great to watch😂😂
Can't wait for New Nightmare!
This is one of my favs after 1, 3 and 7. TBC, no one was falling asleep this time around. Freddy was using Jacob's dreams to do all the killing.
This one delved more into body horror didn't it fellow Krueger fans
New Nightmare is set in the "real world" so not exactly Nancy, but the actress who PLAYS Nancy is the star of it playing herself
"Sorry I'm 4 hours late but I was fighting a baby demon that grew into a grown demon and rescuing a nun from a tower" - I am 100% using this excuse next time I'm late for work.
I also feel it pairs will with using "I have to return some video tapes" to LEAVE anything early
I've watched all the saga since 2023 started and your reactions definetely improved the whole experience for me.
Can't wait for you to get to the AMAZING Wes Craven's New Nightmare, which I think is the best of the franchise (with part 1 and 3).
Another reason you should be really excited for New Nightmare is Wes Craven finally came back to direct:):)
Trust me. It gets worse.
But here’s a challenge for you. Try and spot a continuity mistake in the next movie. I’m surprised it’s hardly ever talked about. Good luck. Always love your reactions and excited for the next.
The squeal of delight when I saw that you had uploaded a new video! This totally made my morning 😍
Still can't wait for you to see Cult of Chucky and the Chucky tv series
This was the first Nightmare on Elm Street that I had seen in the movie theater.
I haven’t even watched the video yet but I get so excited when you come out with a new reaction😊
So will get a movie this Sunday Monday morning. When will the usual broadcast go back to normal. One of my highlights of the week is a reaction with Alanda Parker always a treat to spend a half hr to an hr always hope it's the longest video you can do I just enjoy them thank you so much for bringing joy the world needs more of your light.
Always so happy when there’s a new Alanda video! Also, all of the Nightmares had theatrical releases. I think all of the big three did. Nightmare, Halloween, and Friday. But I know the Nightmare films did.
Nick J. Yes, you're right all 3 of those franchises only had theatrical releases I don't know who told Alanda otherwise about the nightmare films, I guess they must have been extremely confused because the only made for TV sequels to horror movies which I have seen or know of are "When a stranger calls back", "The Stepfather 3: fathers day" and "The Birds 2: Lands' End".
Hoping Alanda sees this smh
@@tvpivm Me too.
This movie is definitely a guilty pleasure for me I have such a blast with this movie. Nightmare 3-5 were basically a dream trilogy and used religion to defeat Freddy (Holy water, reflection in a stained glass, and his mother who is a nun). Like the creativity these movies have for the dream sequences and kills is top tier. The next one however that is awful. Like no one talks about how Alice is the only final girl in this franchise to survive two encounters with Freddy which is a huge accomplishment in a franchise where survivors are usually killed.
Yess but I figured ANOES would’ve had religion involved anyways since Freddy is a demon and the cross falling on Nancy and the nun
@@jenniferbayarea5748 yeah but parts 3-5 really focused heavily on that side. The original and part 2 didn’t really deal with any of that. Plus it’s not like you can kill a spirit he’s already immortal the only way to actually beat him (or at least temporarily) was what happened in Freddy vs Jason like what the town people did until the teens/ that one cop ruined it. His defeats stand as the most creative of any horror icon.
So glad to see you back. I'm glad you're feeling better. Hopefully you were able to see your loved ones. :)
I enjoyed! Glad Alice’s story ended on a good note. S/N: Alanda, if you think DREAM CHILD was bad, wait until you watch FREDDY’S DEAD🤣😂
Freddy's Dead is frickin' painful to watch.
@@raputathebuta LoL. I enjoyed it when it was released…but then I was about 12 or 13, too!
This is the story they originally wanted for part 2.
It also wasnt a tv movie. It was a theatrical release.
I've seen this movie. I remember watching it, but the plot of it always leaves my mind the second its over. Like, we killed off Nancy for this?
Thank you for watching it so I didnt have to watch it again, and at least it is behind you now!
I'm excited for you to get to New Nightmare, but I'm not gonna lie, I'm really stoked for when you watch Freddy vs Jason.. Not everyone loves it, but it's one of my faves in both series
She’s gonna have to get through the rest of Friday the 13th and she’s only seen 3 so it’ll be awhile.
"Fetus Deletus!" 😂 that made me think of Zenon... Zetus Lapetus! Love it! I'm also a Disney Channel Original Movie kid. 😂
"One, two...he's coming for you. Three, four...better lock your door. Five, six...grab your crucifix. Seven, eight...better stay up late. NINE, TEN...HE'S BACK AGAIN!!!!!"
Yaassssss we love Disney channel originals 😍 don’t look under the bed was one of my favsssss
we're fully in the messy fever dream phase of the nightmare franchise. we love that!
2:05 first he gives Nick that Chucky doll and now he gives Alanda that glass. I need to have David as my friend hopefully he could give me a vacation or something.
You are so absolutely right about Nancy. Nancy is also my favorite 👍👏
U have the best reaction videos! Very funny and smart commentary 😂
I actually quite like the weirdness of this one. Guuuurrrrllll if you thought this was bad, you’ve no idea what travesties are in store in the next one!! 😱😱 x
Welcome back, Alanda! I hope you’ll also be able to continue with the Friday the 13th franchise as well!
It took me actual minutes to stop laughing at the title of this video in order to watch it 😂😂😂😂
I'm actually writing an idea for either a animated movie or a game I'd like to see made called Freddy v Jason v Ash set in 1990 so it ignores Elm Street 6. It also has a fully resurrected (non deadite) Nancy Thompson Voiced by the actress Heather Langenkamp who becomes a love interest to Ash. For the first half of the story idea she has Amnesia not remembering who she is or who Freddy is or how she died. She becomes a badass the more she spends time with Ash. Ash also lives in a trailer Park like in the evil dead show and also works at value stop at the first part of the idea.
That's a great idea. 👍
@@RebelKingfrom1995 please don't try and take my idea
@@jarodM6 Not at all. If anything, let's collaborate on a future project.
"That was abysmal!"
Oh, my sweet summer child...you haven't seen Freddy's Dead yet...
