A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge

Horror87 min

Mark Patton is Jesse Walsh, a teenager whose family moves into a suburban house and whose nights soon fill with visions of Freddy Krueger. In Jesse’s dreams, Robert Englund’s burned child murderer isn’t just stalking him — he’s trying to use the boy’s body to keep killing in the waking world. As sleepwalking, panic, and sudden violence spread from Jesse’s bedroom to school and a crowded pool party, the sequel shifts the Elm Street terror toward possession, with Kim Myers alongside Patton as one of the few people close enough to see Jesse coming apart.
