A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Child (1989)
Nice 80ies "Horrortrip" with disturbing images. Far better than other sequels
I don't know why people think that part 5 is one of the worst of the series. For a sequel it has everything that is needed for a nice horror flick. I mean, the originity and the "specialness" that noes 1 brought can't be topped, because it was the first one and came up with something that was never seen so if you make a sequel on a movie like this, then you just have to make something out of the dream thing and visualize it in a very fascinating way knowing that people know what the series is about. I think that the dream scenarios where way more fascinating, beautiful and disturbing than in part 4. This scenario and the 101- 80ies special effects give this film the right atmosphere and make worth seeing it. Same counts for part 3. Number two really was a nightmare (what about the dream sequences???) and is the worst of them all besides part 6 and 4... My opinion as a person who thinks that picture and atmosphere themselves are more important than a story in movies like this (because the story was invented, told and finished in part 1!)
