10 Of The Best Quotes From The A Nightmare On Elm Street Movies

Ten of the best quotes from the A Nightmare On Elm Street movie franchise.

A Nightmare on Elm Street is an American horror franchise that consists of nine slasher films, a television series, novels, and comic books. The franchise began with the film A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) created by Wes Craven.

A Nightmare On Elm Street(1984) was the very first horror movie that I had the pleasure of watching at about 5 years old.  From there on, I became obsessed with the horror genre, Freddy Krueger and slasher movies.
