Movie Monsters
Heeere's Freddy! The first installment of "A Nightmare on Elm Street" burst upon the movie scene just before Thanksgiving 1984. It is memorable not just because of Robert Englund's portrayal of Freddy Krueger, but also because it marked the movie debut of Johnny Depp, who played one of his victims. (Poor Johnny got messily swallowed by a mattress.)
