IMDb plot summary: Several people are hunted by a cruel serial killer who kills his victims in their dreams. While the survivors are trying to find the reason for being chosen, the murderer won't lose any chance to kill them as soon as they fall asleep.
Directed by Wes Craven. Starring Heather Langenkamp, Johnny Depp, John Saxon, and Ronee Blakley.
A HUGE blind spot for me as a movie buff. Some really good creepy death scenes, but I expected a bit more out of the actual nightmares. It almost seems more mystery than horror for much of the movie, which is kind of underwhelming when you already know the answer. Still pretty good (and, DANG, that blood-spewing bed is one of the most horrifying things I've seen).
3.5 stars.
