Story Synopsis:
Five years after his first rampage, Freddy Krueger is back in A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge. Even though he was sent back to hell, Freddy finds a way to return to the sleepy little town to torment a new family on Elm Street. Each of the discs in the A Nightmare On Elm Street Collection offers cast and crew biographies and Jump To A Nightmare buttons. The first and last movies (A Nightmare On Elm Street and Wes Craven’s New Nightmare) in the set also offer audio commentary by Mr. Craven himself. Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare adds a Jump To The 3-D Sequence button (glasses included in the box). See Special Features for the extras included on the separate disc in this box set and consult the DVD-ROM Review for specifics on those features.
LaserDisc Picture:
The matted 1.85:1 picture exhibits slightly undersaturated colors but otherwise natural fleshtones. Some scenes are overly bright and others are blurred, wanting in sharpness and detail. Night scenes are poorly delineated and slight noise is apparent throughout. There are no distracting artifacts.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The sound is undistinguished monaural, but with deep extended bass.
