Nightmare On Elm Street Anthology, Volume 1

In technical terms, this is an edit that definitely shows its age a bit, as the menus require a bit of squinting and the re-integrated deleted scenes are far from seamless; however as an overall package, this is one of the best. Plenty of extras (2-discs!), lots of alternate takes and generally just a lot of fun. Might not be my definitive way to watch the original Nightmare going forward, but as a treasure trove of rare behind-the-scenes material, this is an essential augmentation to any Freddy Fanatic's shelf.

This was pretty enjoyable. I had never taken the time to watch any of the deleted scenes and to be honest, this film is better off without them. As a 25th Anniversary Version though, this was fantastic.
