The movie is about Freddy Krueger as a fictional movie villain who invades the real world, and haunts the cast and crew responsible for his movies. In this movie, Freddy is depicted as closer to what Craven originally intended, being much more menacing and much less comical, with an updated attire and appearance.

The movie was released on October 14, 1994 and made $19.7 million in the box office.^[1]
