Pesadilla en Elm Street (El origen)

Versión contemporánea del clásico del cine de terror. Un grupo de adolescentes de los suburbios empiezan a ser perseguidos por Freddy Krueger, un asesino de aspecto terrible y con el rostro quemado que trata de acabar con ellos mientras duermen. Necesitan, pues, permanecer despiertos para protegerse mutuamente. Pero, si duermen, no hay escapatoria.

Teenagers Nancy, Quentin, Kris, Jesse and Dean are all neighborhood friends who begin having the same dream of a horribly disfigured man who wears a tattered sweater and a glove made of knives. The man terrorizes them in their dreams, and the only escape is to wake up. But when, one by one, they start dying violently, the friends realize that what happens in the dream world is real, and the only way to stay alive is to stay awake.
