Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) ****1/2 [Freddython 2021 Pt. 9]

Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) is an exhaustingly comprehensive (4-hour) documentary that incorporates almost every major participant in the Nightmare On Elm Street franchise. Every time I watch it I am reminded of how this is my favorite horror series for many reasons and how I enjoy the backstories on the making of these films almost as much as the films themselves. NSA does a great job of being honest—rather than just have the interviewees gush over each other, they actually acknowledge the shortcomings of each film. This doc also reinforces the fact I can always find aspects of even the lesser entries to appreciate. A must watch for every true Freddy fan.
