Nadat de conciërge van een school, Freddy Krueger, door een groep boze ouders levend verbrand wordt, omdat hij kinderen seksueel misbruikt zou hebben, keert hij terug als een moordenaar met een verbrand gezicht. Freddy wil wraak nemen op de kinderen, die nu rond de 18 zijn. Hij hangt rond in het onderbewustzijn van de tieners, waarna hij hen met zijn vlijmscherpe messen vermoordt.
Nee, helaas is A Nightmare on Elm Street nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
