Part 2 is the first Freddy film I ever saw. While the writing stinks, the Freddy make-up by Chuck Yagher is astonishing and the best in the series; Freddy is still scary as in the first film; and the acting, particularly by Mark Patton and Lisa Myers, is among the best in the series.

I have to agree with everyone when I say that when first viewing the second film when I was young,I was indeed dissapointed with the plot,and the acting(except for englund).The make up and effects were amazing though. After re-viewing it again, a few years later, I was still saddened by it, but I came to like Freddys changes in it more so than the other sequels. He was darker and scarier. That was the one thing I liked about the new one as well

Love the orginal poster art…..still hate the film.
I remember seeing the first nightmare, loving it, and then renting the 2nd and wondering what the F happend! Yeah i was only about 10 or 11 at the time but i still hated it.
There were some moments that still stick with me and i dont know why. The exploding bird….the school bus balancing out on top of a mountain spike…the really weird kid who freedy possesses…and the pool party. Lol!
Disposable garbage. A sequel that was def NOT for the fans…
and no offense but that homosexual undertone was not needed at all.

This movie has great atmosphere. Definitely deserves to stand next to the original and New Nightmare as a “scary” elm street film.

It plays more like an episode of Freddy’s Nightmares but I still enjoy this one. The pool scene is by far one of the best in the Nightmare series.

It’s not homophobic, it’s homoerotic! Probably unintentionally, but believe me, it’s everywhere in the movie.

When I first watched Part 2, I was very unenthusiastic about it. However after watching the rest of the series, I realized how terrible the other sequels were (save for 3) and just how good Part 2 was. So now I have a greater respect for this movie than I did the first time I saw it.

I also like how this film is relatively restrained in its deployment of Freddy, using him sparingly until exploding into Freddy action during the climax. Many of the sequels gave the franchise moneymaker much more screen time, but I feel he’s a more effective monster when kept in the shadows.

The pool scene is awesome, totally agree. Freddy’s two lines – ‘Help yourself, fucker!’ and ‘You are all my children now’ – are classic.

The scene where Freddy jumps through the glass doors and disappears was so cool back then. And Freddy never looks freakier than he does in the pool party scene when he turns around to face all the partiers. Alot of people can’t stand this one but the only thing I don’t like about it is the guy who played Jesse’s horrible acting. That is one of my favorite 80′s movie posters, too.
