I love how BJ be instigating: BJ: "Well I mean, you have to investigate right?..." Asia: "No, no you dont!!!" ~raises up blanket 🤣🤣🤣

Almost 40 years later, this film still works. Cool.

Nothing is more entertaining than watching Asia watch a scary movie

"He's like the boyfriend from Scream, climbing in the window" -- both Wes Craven movies. In Scream he was basically playing into all the horror cliches, including the ones that he, himself, helped popularize.

What I always liked about this movie was how Nancy went after Freddy.

Bro this is one of the BEST OG movies period. Robert Englund NAILED that role. He scared the sh*t outta me for YEARS. I was way too young watching this whole series lmao

I love when Asia starts laughing when she’s scared. I don’t know why but I find it hilarious

I love how BJ says "put your blanket down ", and Asia's nervous laugh. We love you guys. This movie made my little brother put the lights on all through the house all night long after seeing it.

Can you believe how young Johnny Depp is in this? This was his very first movie he ever did.

As a teenager, I lived on Elm St when this movie came out. It freaked me out so bad! I was so scared to go to sleep. 😆

OMG asia was damn near about to have a heart attack, poor baby. The first nightmare on Elm Street film was by far the scariest in the franchise and still scares me til this day. Y'all are troopers and awesome content creators. Keep up the great work 💯💯💯

Freddy is what’s called a revenant. He was killed in real life but came back for revenge. As always the best movie reactions on the interwebs.

I can't wait to hear how many times BJ is going to say... "L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-LOOK". That is hilarious every time. I'm guessing at LEAST 27 times. 😆😆😆

I’ve never seen a person so unsure of what to do or where to look as Asia was when the mom got pulled through the front door at the end. 😂😂😂😂😂 girl you are just so animated I have tears laughing.

"that's the worst runaway job ever"😂😂😂 y'all had me rolling 😂😂

Asia’s reaction to that final scene has me in TEARS. I love y’all’s reactions to scary movies. Thanks for your content guys!

The red eyes are on Amityville Horror. They look through the window. It would give you nightmares!

Yes Yes Yes! I'm glad Asia has her blanket for this one. I can't wait for tonight after I get off work! 🤣

I LOVE the way Asia screams and hides behind her blanket...like it has some super power or something. Both of you are priceless!! Thank you!!

A true classic. It was like nothing that had come before it. For all it's budgetary based flaws it's still amazing and so damn creepy.

Don't sleep on this classic!! I was afraid to fall asleep the first time I saw the original.

I was 16 when this came out. 55 now. I still have dreams about Freddie. GREAT horror movie.

I love watching your reactions! My favorite line this time: “Shucky Ducky Quak Quak!” 😂 I’m using that now!

I love you guys. “That’s like the boyfriend in ‘Scream!’” Same writer/ director and yea. He did it on purpose lol but you two crack me up!

Ah, memories! Nothing beats the classics…Freddy, Jason and Michael 👻 And side note this was Johnny Depp’s debut movie 🍿🎶

This was the first scary movie I ever watched. My grandma let me watch it WAY too early. I was traumatized for years. Lol. Doesn’t seem that scary how, but when you’re 8….it’s really scary.

FUN FACT: Wes Craven chose the street "Elm St." Because that was the street that JFK was assassinated on in Dallas, Texas.

The first couple of Nightmare on Elm Streets were legit scary and a completely new thing. Starting w NOES #3, they became more and more spoofs. But the visual effects and art remained amazing. An incredible creative crew on these movies. Thanks for covering it.

I always thought that Nancy realizes at the very end of the movie that it is her mother's dream that she is in, not hers. Nancy has defeated Freddy at this point, so he can't come after her in Nancy's, or her friend's dreams. The sequence with the car is Freddy simply moving Nancy and her friends out of the picture, so he can then proceed to attack one of the people he really hates, Nancy's mom. Nancy's shouts of "Mother!" is our heroine desperately trying to get her mom to wake up from the dream before Freddy gets her. Part 2 of the franchise does give the audience one, brief line of dialogue about the final fate of Nancy's mom.

This movie scared the crap out of me the first time I saw it. These was so popular we had to wait in line at the theater. You need your blanket Asia. ✌️❤️

The fact I'm watching this alone at night time with the rest of my house asleep makes this reaction 💯 better lol 😂

This movie is a WHOLE vibe and was a horror movie game changer! Asia's facial reactions. 😆😆😄😄😂😂😂😆😆😆😁😁

OMG! Can't wait!! This was the first time I saw Johnny Depp! I knew then he was going to be something great!!

If you get the chance, you should watch the original show called V. It was the first thing I saw Robert Englund in. The character he played in V was so opposite of Kruger, you'd never guess he could play such a frightening character.

This was one of Johnny Depp’s first big screen films! He was so young and cute! I love Freddie Kruger, he is scary and funny! I loved the dreaming aspect and the fact you never knew if they were sure if they were dreaming until Freddie shows up!❤❤

ANOES is one of the scariest horrors ever. Jamie Lee and Neve are iconic, no doubt. Sigourney too. But Heather Langenkamp's Nancy is the hardest final girl of all time! Great reaction, y'all. Subbed.

I think the 3rd movie is my favorite, Dream Warriors. Did you know the Freddy actor is a surfer? He was in the 1978 movie Big Wednesday.

He only comes after them in their sleep, there’s no escaping him….these were my fave scary movies, all the Nightmare on Elm Streets are great!!!!! PLEASE watch the next one!!!!!

My Aunt and Uncle moved to Elm Street in the town of Killen (pronounced Killin) after this movie came out. They had never seen or heard of this movie until their kids said, "Elm street? Killen? Have ya'll never heard of Nightmare on Elm St?" They lived a very happy life there until they passed away in their 80's, even their daughter ended up saying, "This is my Happy place

Asia, you crack me up! After the movie you mentioned how it wasn't scary, but you had the blanket up to your eyeballs the whole time! LOL! 😄🤣😂

The practical effects in this are next level. I found the upside down bedroom scene where Johnny Depp gets sucked into the mattress pretty cool. Same with the girl flailing on the ceiling. Just so simple and clever compared to the CGI saturation we get nowadays.

Fun fact: the room Tina is killed in was a rotating room. So when she was on the floor she was actually om the ceiling and vise versa. Its the same room they use for Glens death when the blood shoots out the bed. When Nancy gets pulled in the tub shes actually on top of a tank and production designer Jim Doyle was in the hole in the tub connected to the tank with the glove. When shes pulled in that shot is in a pool with a tarp over it so you can tell how deep they are in the water. :) and the wall is spandex when freddy leans out the wall over in the beginning of the film. Practical filmmaking that made me wanna become an actor and director

You two really have the best horror reactions

I love that you guys utilize a full screen for a good portion of the movie. Helps out with having closed caption on

The Exorcist was the movie that made me afraid of the dark. If you guys have not seen "Fallen" with Denzel Washington check it out. Scared the HELL out of me. Literally 😰

I watched this at the movie theatre when it came out. The only other horror film I had seen before that was The Exorcist when I was about 11 and it really traumatised me. Watching Nightmare on Elm Street traumatised me even more and NEVER watched another horror film until now that I feel safe watching the classics with you guys, thank you 🤗 love you both ❤

Asia has the most infectious laugh I have ever heard and I love it :)

When I was a kid, this film gave me nightmares for two straight weeks and my mum went mad I watched this on VHS around a friends house. 😂😂😂

Red eyes looking in a window sounds like Amityville Horror.

The red eyes you are talking about is from....."The Amityville Horror." They called the entity Jody the red eyed pig.

Another Wes Craven masterpiece ❤️ His Legacy will live forever

Whoooweeee!!! Y’all had me rolling again!😂😂😂😂 That last jump scare reaction is everything!! I was 13 years old and in middle school when this came out. There was so much buzz about this movie when it was first released. But again, I was too young to see it in theaters. You might remember my post on your Friday the 13th reaction how I tricked my cousin to sneak into the theater to see that film. Well anyway, my parents bought our first VCR in 1983. Not everyone had one but the were really gaining momentum as most families by 1984 had one. This meant we could watch any movie at home before it would hit cable tv. And when a Nightmare on Elm Street was released on videotape, my mother actually rented it. I was surprised my mother allowed us to watch it. But we loved it! And yes; it scared the hell out of us too. But it was more psychological because of the dreams or nightmares and the situations the characters found themselves in which made for a pretty good watch. Wes Craven directed this one. He also directed Scream. In Scream, he threw in a few nods to A Nightmare on Elm Street. BJ, you actually caught one of them when you mentioned Johnny Depp sneaking up on Heather Langenkamp’s (Nancy) bedroom window scaring her. Wes Craven put that as an homage when Billy does the same to Sidney in Scream. The other nod was when the principal is being tormented at Woodsboro High School, he opens the office door out to the hallway and the janitor is mopping the floor. The guy mopping the floor is Wes Craven. He’s also dressed in the green and red sweater. Principal Himbry also refers to him as “Fred” as in Fred (Freddy) Kruger. Anyway, just some fun facts for y’all. The other thing you have to remember. Back then, studios didn’t give much in terms of budget for making these films. If you look these movies up on Google (Halloween, Friday the 13th & A Nightmare on Elm Street), you’ll see that all of them were made on a shoestring budget. And yet, they managed to far exceed expectations and be very successful movies earning a hell of a lot of money. A lot of credit goes out to directors like John Carpenter and Wes Craven. It was Wes Craven who revitalized the horror movies again with Scream. Sorry; I know it’s a lot of info. But had to share with you both. Can’t wait for the next one!!🥰🎃❤️🙌🏼

The TV series in the 80's was so cheesy but fun I used to stay up late at night to watch it. I wish they would release it on DVD.

Watching you two react to these movies is oftentimes more entertaining than the movies themselves!!!

My parents thought it was a good idea to allow me to watch this at age 6 or 7. 😒 Kruger was the main monster in my nightmares. I had nightmares of him for years. It's nightmare fuel for sure. 😣 Great reaction by the way!

Just started this reaction. I remember this movie scared a ton of children into trying to stay awake back in the day 😂 If you don't understand the whole dream/awake thing. Basically Freddy can invade your dreams and attack you as long as you're afraid of him. *HE* controls the dreams, which is why the beginning was Tina running in a boiler room, his home base so to speak. Seeing as there was a rumour in the old days that if you died in your dreams you died in real life, they played off that. Whatever happens to you in your dreams happens to you in real life...hence the cuts on Tina's robes & stomach. Also knowing what came later when you said the "there's so much blood" comment, I just smirked 😂

Out of the whole series, this one and parts of New Nightmare are genuinely pretty scary. As much as I like some of the sequels, they weren't scary, especially the joke that was Freddy's Dead. Dream Warriors and Dream Master are the 2 sequels I really enjoyed.

I saw this movie when I was 7 years old back in 1984. I guess parents just let their kids watch anything back in the day. 🤣

At the end, Nancy realized that she was dreaming. She never woke up after she thought she pulled Freddy from the dream. That's how she was able to defeat him. And after that, she ended up in her mother's dream, that's why it was all sunny and perfect..until the freddy convertible

The look on Asia's face at the end is just priceless, I'm dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I so love their reactions 😅. I was a senior in high school and went to watch it with my two best friends. I loved it. A brand new horror movie for me at that time. I’m a fan.

Man, this movie scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. The idea of something haunts you in your sleep was brilliant. We can only live so long without sleep and you can only fight sleep but so long and then you go whether you want to or not. That is what made it so scary. This movie is in the Top 10 best horror movies of all time. There are sequels as well.

I love how Tina's death shocked you both into silence for about five minutes. Such an impactful death that still holds up to this day. I saw this late 80's when i was 5 and i couldn't sleep for months. Even now ill still have an occasional Freddy Krueger dream. Wes Craven was a genius. Great vid guys.

A terrifying timeless masterpiece - nothing has ever come close to the writing, atmosphere & execution of this classic. A great movie irrespective of it's genre.

After I saw this I had a couple of actual nightmares about Freddy. I thought he was really coming to get me! 😆

Johnny Depp in the beginning of his career. How young he looked. And what a concept. A killer that hits you at your most vulnerable... Unless you are a lucid dreamer.

I watched this movie when I was 4 (born in 1981) and I am 41 today and still am freaked out by this movie. I love it...but...I've seen it so many times but cannot watch it at night, in the dark, or by myself. I teach high school and this school hallway scene replays in my mind when I'm walking down a dark hall by myself early in the morning or late at night (I get there early and stay late for tutoring students).

The part where the boyfriend pops out of the window and into the room? This happened in Scream also because, Wes Craven directed both movies. So, he basically did a shout-out to his own movie.

Can't wait!!! This was huge I mean huge when it first came out and I was in high school, we even had a vice principal whose last name was Kruger LOL you guys are going to love this, and I cannot wait to get my Asia and BJ fix, been a super rough day in my world and I really need this, see you guys tonight, can't wait!💕🤘👻✨

The red eyes Asia talked about might have been from The Amityville Horror, the original. This is a classic. Part 2 is pretty good, but part 3 is awesome!

My 2 older sisters got me watching this when it came on HBO & i was about 6 or 7 years old. I had nightmare for days & that's how my insomnia had started. Gotta love the 80s!

All I'm saying is if "Scream and Nightmare on Elm St." did not teach you to quit answering your phone, then you ain't never gonna learn. BJ, the movie for you is 1979 "the Warriors". You will know so many Iconic phrases from this movie. The soundtrack is beyond amazing.

Literally my favorite franchise! So glad y'all decided to do this one!!!!

I remember after seeing this in the theater, me and my friends trying to keep each other awake that night, must have drank a pot of coffee lol. This was a great reaction y'all are too funny.

I'm just a minute into this movie and Asia says "I'm gonna need him to go sit down somewhere". 🤣😂🤣 Asia, your comments in all these movies CRACK ME UP so much!!! And BJ, your face during the scarey scenes is hysterical! THIS is the dude that waved to me on the beach in CA!! 😳😂

I absolutely love Nightmares on Elm street. They just get better and better lol part 3 and 4 are my favorites! I believe it’s one of Lawrence Fishburns starting roles as well as patricia arquette in part 3

Yo Asia face at the end was priceless 🤣

This another movie that gave me nightmares as a kid. I hope you guys get around to watching LEGION a marvel based show that Noah Hawley made, it’s definitely my favorite and I think Asia will have a few blanket moments

The officer at Glens crime scene that says "Lt. They're waiting for you upstairs," is the Sheriff in the first Scream movie.

Yes, Wes Craven, the director, referenced A Nightmare on Em Street in Scream, mainly in the janitor's clothes and in the scene of the boyfriend jumping through the window.

Asia's reaction face at the end of the movie was priceless. She had that WTF just happened look going on for a sec.

Asia, in the beginning, when you mentioned a movie with "red eyes looking in through the window" - that might be from The Amityville Horror. It's a paranormal/haunted house movie that came out 3 years before Poltergeist. 11:56 I laughed here because both of you and I had the same reaction to "Is somebody there?" - 3 words that translate to "I'm about to die".

"That's like that boyfriend from Scream." EXACTLY! Wes Craven directed both films, and the Scream killers were mimicking famous horror movies.

This movie destroyed me when it came out. I watched it at a grade 6 slumber party. Pretty sure I was awake for a full 2 weeks after 🤣

You two are hilarious 🤣🤣🤣 She's walking with confidence and everything. I'm not walking home, call my momma. 🤣

I was 8 when this came out, but didn't see it til I was 12, it gave me nightmares, but now I'm an adult, I love this movie, a great movie. There are 7 nightmare On Elm Street movies in total, but there is also a movie called Freddy Vs Jason, which is also an awesome movie too.😎👌🍿📽️. This was Johnny Depp's first Movie he ever did.📽️🍿👌😎 Robert Englund played Freddy Krueger. 📽️. There is a guy in I think it's Germany, his name is Fredrik Kruger & he actually lived in elm st, when this movie came out, people in his street stayed away from for a while, as it scared them that much . 😮

First time I watched this at 13, that Freddy skull face scared me for weeks Fun fact: the actress who played Nancy's teacher is also Elise from Insidious

Nancy saying she looked 20-years-old was an inadvertent inside joke because 15-year-old Nancy was played by a 19-year-old Heather Langenkamp.

I love how Asia is covering her face without covering her eyes ! 😂

Johnny Depp is actually twenty one years old in this movie. His cute boy looks got him a lot of younger parts. This was his very first movie.

People in today's world say that there were no female icons or females to look up to - growing up as a little boy, nancy from nightmare on elm street was one of mine - freddy scared the hell out of me, and nancy stood up to the literal nightmare - TWICE - in this movie and she came back after surviving in part 3 this movie still scared the hell out of me - part 3 is excellent and horryfying, but this one is the scariest of them for me

I must admit this reaction video was really entertaining their reactions were great! very genuine this one deserves a million views! Please consider reacting to the Original Pet Sematary from 1989 and the Original Stephen Kings IT movie and the original Hellraiser movie Part 1 from 1990!

I'll be watching this in the dark...and maybe a blanket. 🤣😂🤣

Asia: Tina is crazy. She's walking with confidence and everything. LoL

@ 24:33 is the best reaction when BJ said “if you don’t get up out of here”🤣🤣🤣

You guys are hilarious. I remember when I saw this at the theater, it scared the hell out of me. I made that exact reaction you had on your face at the end.

This was a great horror film back in the day! Personally, I’d skip part 2 and go straight to Nightmare On Elm Street Part 3, “Dream Warriors.” Arguably the best in the series.

This is my all time favourite movie ever made! An absolute classic. Wes Craven was a God

1, 2 Freddie's coming for you 3, 4 better lock your door 5, 6 grab a crucifix 7, 8 gonna stay up late 9, 10 Never Sleep Again

I love watching you two experiencing these scary movies! Too entertaining
