Rachel Talalay rocks! Though I didn't like Tank Girl. And it's not that I didn't respect it as a movie. I'm sure it was very nice. It was me. I just wasn't ready for that sort of movie or something. We parted amicably.
You totally left out the part about the three dream demons, which were later used in the comic book.
I'm reading this review second instead of first, since I somehow missed this one earlier. So again I must point out how interesting it is that we latch on to different points of the plot. I had no problem thinking that with the years since part 5, Freddy found a way to break free of Hell, or his mother's prison, or whatever, and expanded his realm of power to encompass all of Springwood...and was stuck there.
The Freddy mythology fascinates me. There's such potential for a really good supernatural urban fantasy story.
