Classic 80's horror flick submitted by beeniepie on August 27, 2014, 2:57pm The original Nightmare on Elm Street is the quintessential 80's horror movie. The classic formula is a backstory that slowly unfolds, with plenty of screams and blood. Plus, it has a virtually unknown Johnny Depp!

excellent submitted by Jackie77 on August 10, 2015, 8:48pm One of the best horror films of the 80's. Johnny is so young and cute. My sons favorite horror movie series since he was a baby. Must watch for all horror fans.
