In anticipation of A Nightmare on Elm Street remake coming to theaters on April 30, 2010, the Freddy Krueger franchise has been resurrected again. Freddy Krueger, the boogeyman, comes back to our nightmares ready to give us a good scare that will surely bring some sleepness nights. Eight films are in the Nightmare on Elm Street Collection on DVD. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) is released for the first time on Blu-ray in the United States.

When you buy Nightmare on Elm Street Collection on DVD, Freddy Krueger promises you will not be falling asleep any time soon. Composed of eight movies released from 1984 to 2003, it includes the following movies in widescreen:

• A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) - Nancy (Heather Langencamp) is having grisly nightmares. Meanwhile, her high-school friends, who are having the very same dreams, are being slaughtered in their sleep by the hideous fiend of their shared nightmares. When the police ignore her explanation, she herself must confront the killer in his shadowy realm. Featuring John Saxon (Enter The Dragon) and Johnny Depp in his first starring role as Glen Lantz and mind-bending special effects, this horror classic gave birth to one of the most infamous undead villains in cinematic history... Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund).

• A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge (1985) - Five years have passed since Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund) was sent howling back to hell. But now, a new kid on Elm Street is being haunted every night by gruesome visions of the deadly dream stalker. And if his twisted soul takes possession of the boy's body, Freddy will return from the dead to wreak bloody murder and mayhem upon the entire town.

• A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) - The last of the Elm Street kids are now at a psychiatric ward where Freddy haunts their dreams with unspeakable horrors.

• A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988) - As her friends succumb one by one to Freddy's wrath, telepathically gifted Kristen embarks on a desperated mission to destroy the santanic dream stalker and release the tortured souls of his victims once and for all. Directed by Renny Harlin and loaded with killer effects and drop-dead humor, this is a "superior horror picture that balances wit and gore with the imagination and intelligence."

• A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989) - Unable to overpower the Dream Master who vanquished him to A Nightmare On Elm Street 4, Freddy haunts the innocent dreams of her unborn child preys upon her friends with sheer horror. Will the child be saved from becoming Freddy's newest weapon or will the maniac again resurrect his legacy of evil?

• Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991) - Lisa Zane is a child psychologist tormented by recurring nightmares. But not until she meets a new patient with the same horrific dreams does her quest for answers lead to a certain house on Elm Street - where an evil that defies the grave is about to be unleashed upon the world. With Yaphet Kotto (TV's Homicide, Alien) and cameos by Roseanne, Tom Arnold, Alice Cooper and Johnny Depp, this chapter in the world's most terrifying dream saga is a fantastic voyage.

• Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994) - Winner of a Golden Scroll of Outstanding Achievement from the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror, this spine-tingling tale reunites original Nightmare stars Robert Englund, Heather Langenkamp and John Saxon as "reel" Freddy invades the real world with deadly results. Life imitated art during filming. Soon after shooting an earthquake sequence, the "Northridge Quake" shook Los Angeles. Says Craven, "We were aboutito have rubble created for the movie, but instead, we were able to just go out and film from the streets." But don't worry, Freddy fans. It's only a movie or is it?

• Freddy vs. Jason (2003) - Freddy Krueger is in hell - literally! And like an inmate with a life sentence, Freddy's been plotting a fantastic revenge...all he needs is a little help. In comes Jason Vorhees (Ken Kirzinger), the equally iconic madman and perfect means for Freddy to once again instill fear on Elm Street. As the bodies begin to pile up, it becomes clear that Jason isn't willing to step aside. Now, with a terrified town in the middle, the two titans of terror enter into a horrifying and gruesome showdown. Winner kills all.
