1.- Nightmare of Elm's Street is about a child molester who was killed by a mob of parents who lit the house where he was hiding in fire, and now he is back to take revenge on the parents by killing their kids in their dreams.
Act one is mainly the development of the characters and Freddy Krueger's entrance to the plot.
Act two consists on Freddy Krueger haunting the kids on their dreams and preforming his revenge, this also involves the kids telling the parents what they've been seeing but no one believes them.
Act three is when most of the kids have died and this is when finally the parents begin to tell the kids the truth and the origin of Freddy Krueger's powers.
2.- Nancy Thompson: is Freddy's last person who he needs to kill to complete his revenge, therefore she became the last person who knew Freddy's Secret.
Freddy Krueger: is a child molester disfigured by a fire, he stalks his victims on their dreams and he uses a glove armed with blades on the finger tips.
3.- The way the director evokes horror is through visual effects of the difference between the dreams and reality in contrast with what the victim is seeing and the people out side the dream are watching, For example when a girl gets attacked by Freddy, the director shows Freddy attacking her and on the other side he boyfriend watching her getting killed and thrown around the room by nothing.
4.- Conceptually, the director evokes fear on the viewers because the way Freddy's victims die, it's on their dreams, when they are the most vulnerable, and throughout the movie the characters become unable to tell when they are awake to when they are asleep.
5.- If I had changed anything from this movie, I would've made Freddy Krueger victorious, that would make him the ultimate horror villain.
Why? Because there are very little horror films that the evil triumphs, and with invincible I mean that I would've made the kids unable to defeat him in the end.
