A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child

We're wheeling the baby buggy into our closets to prepare for our talk about the 1989 sequel, A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child! You'll hear a disagreement about the nature of dreams and how they work, further disagreements about what works and doesn't work for this film including the performances from the lead actors, and lastly, even more disagreements about whether or not the end of this film is it's strength or it's weakness. Enjoy!
