A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child Trivias
Near the end, when Freddy is holding Jacob's hand, you can clearly see Robert Englund's normal hand at the bottom of the glove. Freddy was completely burned so there should have been scar tissue instead of regular skin.When Freddy is in the truck with Dan, and Freddy rips his own arm off, green ooze comes from the wound. But in the close-up shot, the "ooze" is now green sewn fabric, attached to the red and green sweater. The fake hand that the wires snake into was shot backwards and reversed, so you can see the holes where the wires are going to enter.The motorcycle has a California tag, when the setting is in Ohio. When Alice falls out of the shower near the start she is naked. A green towel can be seen wrapped around her when she is lying on the ground, however when she stands up she is naked again.Bending blade seen on Freddy's glove before he kisses Alice.When Alice is about to ram the spiked baby carriage into (and through) Freddy, you can see the tips of the spikes in Freddy's chest before the carriage touches him. The bike's odometer stays at 9850.During the graduation, while talking to Mark and Greta, Alice is seen holding the tickets to Europe before Dan has given them to her. They disappear for a bit and then Dan gives them to her a little later in the scene.Alice screams "Dan" in the diner, but her mouth doesn't move. Both horror author Stephen King and comic book writer Frank Miller were offered the job of writing and directing this movie.During the sequence in which the nun (Amanda) is raped by the criminally insane, Robert Englund is wandering around in the background without his Freddy makeup--including one shot in which the camera lingers on him for a few seconds. Lisa Wilcox's name appears on the opening credits, but not on the ending credits.This is one the only "A Nightmare On Elm Street" movie where the famous song is changed. Original: One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six, grab your crucifix. Seven, eight, gonna stay up late. Nine, ten, never sleep again. Edited: One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six, grab your crucifix. Seven, eight, better stay up late. Nine, ten, he's back again... Hopkins was given 4 weeks to shot and 4 more weeks to edit the film. This mean that he had to shot on one stage while they dressed the other, so they could shot almost continually. After he made it, the studio was impressed and gave Hopkins Predator 2. When Alice and Mark look through the pile of newspapers, for a moment, the camera is set on an article regarding Amanda Krueger’s death. In this article, Robert Shaye (Producer) is quoted as he says: "She was a victim of the evil within us all. I hope she will know peace in the life hereafter". The graduation sequence was cut down significantly to speed up the pacing of the film. As a result, there are several continuity errors. Among the cut footage was Dan's graduation speech, dialogue between Greta and Racine, a rap between Yvonne, Alice, and Greta, additional dialogue about parents and future plans, and a scene in which Alice's father gives her a camera she had been saving up for as a graduation present before she went to Paris (if you watch closely, you can see Alice hand her father a camera before they go to take the group picture)."School's out, Krueger" was a replacement line when a minor wasn't permitted to say "Fuck you, Krueger". Virtually nothing of the screenplay by John Skipp and Craig Spector made it into the film (according to Skipp, only the phrase "It's a boy" was retained), while only around half of Leslie Bohem's screenplay was kept. William Wisher Jr. and David J. Schow did further rewrites, and the final screenplay was put together just days before shooting by Michael De Luca.The bike that attacks Dan is a Yamaha V-Max 1200. The "Freddybike" has a license plate that can be seen for a few seconds and says "FREDDY". It's a California tag.When Alice wakes up from her nightmare in the asylum, and Robert Englund appears beside her in bed and pins her down, originally he said, "There's no such thing as safe sex." The line was excised from the film.
