Good evening.
Police continue
to hunt for the murderers
on elderly couple found slain
in their home one month ago.
Police believe there is no
connection in that case
and the bizarre triple
slaying of three people
found near that same location.
In local news two were killed
and four were wounded
when local bank robbers
began treatening hostages--
What?
No, no, no! Don't be afraid!
This time it isn't one
of your nightmares.
This one was mine.
Where the hell are we?
Ah.
We're coming to you
live from outside
the Springwood
municiple courthouse.
This is the scene of the
pretrail hearing of
accused mass murderer,
Fred Kruger.
The hopes and fears of
this terrorised community
rides on the evidence
produced by the prosecutor,
Michael Deets.
Victim No.
5, eight year old,
Virginia Croft,
this is how she looked
when we found her.
And her four year old
brother, Michael.
He was found in this dumpter
a block away from his home.
Victim No.
7, 6 year old
Bobby Doyle.
We were able to identify him
through his dental records.
Do you have any closing remarks?
Those slides are the only remarks.
They speak for themselves.
Save for the thanks that I
and this community have for
Leiutenant Blocker who finally
apprechended this unholy abberation.
Objection, you honour!
Excuse me.
Alleged unholy abberation.
Do not forget, if not for
Leiutenant Blocker,
his own children would
be pictures on those slides,
instead of sitting with
his father today.
Attorney for the defense.
Do you wish to present
evidence for remission?
I do, your honour.
I have but one exhibit.
Due to new evidence.
I've just been made
aware of, I move for
dismissal of the case.
I protest your honour.
You're out of order Mr Deets.
Counsel, approach the bench.
The evidence presented
to this court was
obtained during an illegal arrest.
Not in compliance with
a Supreme Court Riling
on the rights of the accused.
With great regret,
I must grant the defences
motion to dismiss the case.
Your honour, this man
cannot be allowed to walk free.
Then he should have been read
his rights at the time of arrest.
I'm as sorry as you.
But the law is the law.
If procedure has been followed
this couldn't have happened.
Courts adjourned.
This is your fault!
Your screwed up and now he's free!
It's on your head!
Excuse me.
Where'd the hell did he go?
After more children.
This isn't over.
Not by a long shot.
Those slides.
Brings it all back.
Two years of hunting,
chasing shadows, and for what?
Look at them.
Look at
what he did to Merritt.
She doesn't eat,
she doesn't sleep.
Nothing resembling a normal life.
He took it.
And I couldn't stop him.
- Daddy?
- What, baby?
Will Freddy be back?
You know,
I almost shot him, Sarah.
So help me when I saw him
near the girls I almost
pulled the trigger.
So what stopped you?
I don't want to hear
about Justice.
That *** took my little girl.
You know, Mike, I had
this funny idea
the law was designed to protect us.
I've given my life to the law.
I've always believed in it.
Until today.
And if it fails like today?
Well then, it's our
responsibility to be our own law.
Now, wait a minute.
Are you suggesting we all
become a lynch mob, Michael?
I'm all for giving a man a fair trial.
But the stinking system
wouldn't even let us get that far.
We take it from here.
Are you with me?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Yeah, let's go!
Ah, together again.
Are you ready for Freddy?
Patience, tonight
we'll have a little party.
Time to feed you some meat!
Oh, don't worry, there'll
be will plenty to go around.
Freddy's home!
Tim.
Remember why we
came here, remember New York.
Remember um, 18 locks on the
door, armed guards in schools.
Pushers, junkies, bums,
everything immeginable
on the streets except
decent people.
Sarah, don't.
Oh, but here we are
in the land of white picket
fences and PTA meetings.
Mostly what we wanted was a
decent life for us and the girls.
You think I didn't want that?
What are you like them,
you think this is my fault?
All I'm saying is that maniac
is still hose on the streets.
When I saw what he was
about to do to our girls,
I was too crazy to
remember every stupid detail.
I know his rights.
What about Lisa's rights.
What about Merritt's right.
She hasn't been the
same since this happened.
Where do you think
you're going?
To the station to check security.
You'll be okay, I'll send
a man by to keep watch.
Daddy, you can't kill Freddy.
You'll only make it worse.
Well, what about a street?
Alright, okay, thanks a lot.
Bye.
Well, all units report
a great big negative
on any Freddy sightings tonight.
He's laying low.
He knows we're watching.
Well, we're not the only ones.
What's that mean?
It's just that a couple
of parents don't feel like
waiting for Freddy to show up.
They're gonna find him.
Right, it's just what
we need right now.
A bunch of vigilantees.
Hell, Tim, I'm just a little
bit surprised that
you are not out there with them.
You know, I came here
because I thought one
man can make a
difference and he can,
by upholding the law,
not by breaking it.
Well sometimes you've got
to bend it a little bit.
What, like them out there?
No.
No.
I know the law.
I know where it
begins and I know where it ends.
Do you?
Yeah, chief.
Good, well take a unit
and start patrolling.
And radio in if you spot
any concerned citizens.
You got it.
God, I hate hick towns!
You must be starving.
Shout if you need anything else.
Thankyou.
That guard won't do any good.
Please not in front of your sister.
Mum, she knows
better than all of us.
Lisa, stop.
Over here!
Good God!
Well, he's not here now.
This is Mary's.
My Mary.
Agh!
He's not here.
That means he's in town.
Unit 2 to base.
Yeah, what's up?
Yeah, Tim, I think I just spotted
our citizen's committee
heading into town.
That's all I need.
Their interferance.
Alright.
Bye.
Unit 3, this is base.
Hey, Lou.
Lou? Lou, come in.
Lou, do read me?
This night never ends.
Lou? Are you here?
Lou? Are you here?
He's out there now.
Relax, your father's going
to be home soon.
Everything's going to be fine.
He's here.
I feel him.
Look, you're getting her all upset.
He's come for us.
Please stop it.
I can't take this anymore.
Enough about Fred Kruger.
Hurry up!
Go around the other side.
He's picking up where he left off.
Run around back.
What the hell going on here?
Evening, Tim.
What are you doing?
Where's doing what
you should have done?
You listen.
I'm going to him.
I'm going to do clean
and by the back.
We're way past
your book, Leiutenant.
You okay? Everything alright?
Nothing.
Go inside and lock the door.
Freddy was here.
Honey, go back inside
with your sister.
I'm coming soon.
It's alright.
Sarah, you know
where the gun is.
Stay inside until I get back.
Sarah, stay with the girls.
Be careful.
Lou?
You think you was going
to get rid of me?
Look.
Go ahead.
Put the gun down.
Take him now while
I've got got the chance.
Drop the gun.
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Drop the gun.
Whose side are you on, anyway?
Yours.
Do all of you
want to be on the same
level a this piece of dirt?
Doc, look at you.
You're a dentist,
not an excutioner.
I've got a right to remain
at large, cop,
I've got a right to remain silent.
Ha ha ha!
Are you listening.
I'm taking him in clean and legal.
Anybody that gets in the way
can come along.
In handcuffs.
Hey cop, you've got
pretty little girls.
Shut up!
We uh, we got interrupted
before I could get to know 'em.
They'll like me a
lot better next time.
Next time?
Let me kill him!
I am forever.
The law is the law.
But tonight the law
is on vacation.
That's it! Pour it over me.
I'm thirty.
You missed a spot.
Ha ha!
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Go ahead, pig, I'd rather
burn than fade away.
I'll be back!
I'm free, free, freeeeeeeeee!
We're all in this together.
The rest of the town
knows nothing, understood?
You did the only thing
a man could do.
That was then.
This is now.
Springwood's nightmares
are just beginning!
Ha ha!
Agh!
It's another bad dream.
I can't save them.
Ever since that night.
Listen to me.
You didn't kill a person.
You killed some mindless evil thing.
The law doesn't care about the
difference between the two.
Well, I do.
We all do.
You're a cop.
You killed Fred Kruger.
You
were protecting our daughters.
The real nightmare is over.
We can handle a few bad dreams.
Okay now.
You watch
your sister, Merritt?
Baby? Don't worry
about anything.
Look, if she has any
problems, call me,
I'll come pick her up.
Don't worry about the
other kids, okay.
They'll understand.
Is she mad at me about anything?
No, Daddy.
You know how she is.
She sees the school counsellor.
Twice a week and she
says she's getting better.
Forgetting about Freddy.
Once more I'm coming for you.
Come on, Merritt.
Hey, we're going to have guests.
What?
The F.
B.
I.
They think
they can tie our boy Freddy
into killings all across the state.
They're coming down here?
Our troubles are over, Tim.
They feel bad about
Freddy getting off.
The mistrial and all.
They're gonna help us find him.
It's only a matter of time now.
They're not going to find him.
Oh hell, Tim.
These guys are pros.
Not alive that is.
What are you talking about?
A bunch of us.
Deets, the doc,
some other parents tracked
him back to his boiler room.
Cornered him.
We burned him alive.
I threw the match.
Hell Tim, nobody's going
to blame you in this town.
Maybe not, but the Fed's
won't be so forgiving.
I killed a man in cold blood, Gene.
What are you so worried
about the Fed's for?
So they find a body, so what.
No-one's going to talk.
Springwood's too small,
somebody will crack.
Somebody always cracks.
When they do, I'm history.
Not if there isn't anybody to find.
I'll go to the power plant.
I'll take care of the body.
Hide it good.
Leave that to me, Tim.
You're not a criminal,
you're a hero.
You're covered as of now.
Damn it!
Gene to Tim over.
Yeah, I'm here, Gene, go ahead.
Tim, ah, a couple of
our boys just discovered
a body over at the power plant.
I thought you were
going to take care of that.
I did, Tim, I swear.
Then, whose body did they find?
I came up here after we talked.
I found the body
right where you said.
I hid it over here.
I even welded the damn thing shut.
Let's open it up!
Oh, Tim!
Open it up!
Getting ready to take
the body out right now.
It can't be Kruger.
It just can't.
Gene, came down here
before, took the body
and hid it.
Now it's missing.
Kruger couldn't have
just walked back here.
Wait, we've got worse problems.
We need to have a meeting
with everybody that was here.
You, me, Deets, all the others.
The FBI is coming to town.
- What?
- Yeah, that's right.
So we'd better have our
story straight before
they get here, especialy
if Kruger turns up
dead before they get
a chance to look.
We'll have a meeting
at my office tomorrow.
You tell the others.
Okay.
They're bringing out the body.
Alright, thanks.
Oh, my God, Deets!
What the hell was he doing here?
He must have cracked.
Came back here.
I hate to admit it,
but I'm kinda relieved.
I'm not, we're still missing
one body.
Give me this.
Ow!
What's the matter, tooth problem?
Come on by the office
tomorrow, I'll take care of it.
Tim, look.
Honey, are you alright?
It's all coming apart, Sarah.
The town, the people, me.
Tim, you're not a murderer.
What was Deet's doing
at the *** site.
Are you blaming
yourself for Deets,
is that what this is all about?
Maybe he went up to
check on the body,
to get rid of it, but I'd
already taken care of that.
I had Gene hide it.
When Deet's found it missing,
maybe he freaked,
had a heart attack.
Honey, you can't
really believe that.
It's the only sane explanation.
Right now I need sane, bad.
Tim, come on.
Tim, relax,
honey, it's going to be okay.
Tell that to the FBI.
I'd rather tell it to you.
Just relax, come on, don't worry.
Hey, I did the town a favour.
Everyone says so.
I was protecting my girls.
Listen to me.
This isn't fair!
Open wide.
Ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
Nooooo!
I know what's real.
Leave me alone!
Not another dream!
Daddy, are you alright?
Merritt, baby, Daddy's
just been having
a little trouble these days, alright.
She talks about it, Daddy.
She talks?
In her sleep, when she can sleep.
What does she say?
Mostly she says his name,
over and over.
Told me you killed him,
told me you killed him.
Daddy.
Who told you.
Who have you
been talking to in this town?
No-one, Daddy, really.
Answer me!
Freddy, he's back!
In my dreams and yours!
Bell rings.
I'll get it.
Girls, your ride's here.
Come on, Merritt.
Let's go!
Come on, Merritt, come on.
Tim.
We have to leave.
To go where?
To leave town.
Leave Springwood.
We have to.
Time, we have a life here, you know.
We need to get out.
Before he gets both of the girls.
Look, you're scaring me.
Even New York is safe
compared to Springwood.
At least there you see them coming.
We'll go back, lock ourselves in.
We'll be safe again.
Will you stop it!
I'll call a meeting.
Tell the others to do the same.
When I get back, be ready to leave.
Tim, Tim.
Freddy's poisoned this place.
He owns it.
What's the matter with him?
What's the matter with him?
So, Lieutenant Blocker,
you finally made it here.
Doc told me about
that chipped tooth.
Oh, that's not why I am here.
Can you get the Doc for me?
Sure, have a seat.
You ready to go?
Yeah.
Here Block, just let me
have another look at the tooth.
No, we don't have time.
It's just a temporary seal.
Alright, just make it quick.
You got it.
Just go down there,
last door on the right,
Maryanne will be there in
a minute to get you ready.
Sarah told me where to find you.
She called the office all upset.
What are you talking about?
Leaving town, quitting.
It's not use anymore, Gene.
As soon as the Feds
turns up I'm dead.
The Feds? Who said
anything about the Feds.
Who said anything about the Feds?
What are you playing with me?
You did.
You told me
yesterday the FBI
is coming in to nail Kruger.
Take it easy, Tim, I hid
the body just like you said.
Everything's fine.
Kruger's body is gone.
You saw.
We opened the trunk.
Yes, I saw.
I saw
the trunk welded shut.
That body is going nowhere.
I'm losing it, Gene, I'm coming it.
Take it easy, Tim,
You're just stressed out.
Everything's fine.
You'll
forget about it in two weeks.
This is all behind you, Tim.
Relax.
Okay, Buddy.
I see
you're in good hands.
I'll check on you later.
Doc will be in in just a second.
This will relax you.
You know, this gas, let's
me see through your clothes.
It's just the nitrous taking effect.
Boy, it really is painless.
Now for the sodium pentathol.
Mm.
Getting the works, huh.
Oh, you deserve it, Lieutenant.
Now I want you to
count backwards from 10.
All those teeth.
I'm afraid
they'll all have to go.
Tell Freddy when it doesn't hurt.
- You're dead!
- Big deal!
Noooo! Agh!
Now there's a smile
every mother could love!
What happened?
He must have had some
reaction to the gas.
Oh, God!
Sweet dreams!
Whose next, you?
Or maybe you?
How about one of you?
