I remember watching Freddy's Nightmare during its original run (I was in high school at the time) but the only episode I remember is the one you mentioned, I believe it was called "Killer Instinct" and co-starred an actress I had a crush on at the time named Yvette Nipar, who had gorgeous light-blue eyes and a big ol' mane of wavy brown hair (and who was also a semi-regular for a couple seasons of 21 Jump Street, which I also used to watch in high school).

But I digress.

I remember the decapitation wasn't very graphic -- in fact, if memory serves I believe it was more hinted at than actually shown -- but I remember it making me flinch all the same. Granted I've seen much worse in the 25 years since, but hey, I was only 16 at the time.

Earlier tonight I finally got to watch the main documentary of Never Sleep Again up to the Welcome to Prime Time about the Freddy's NIghtmares show.

I never knew that the show got a bit gory in some episodes and some wacky stuff that went on such as Lori Petty getting her head cutt off in some high school track competition episode lol.

Then some episode where Freddy pops out of a guy's stomach which brings up memories of Elm Street 2. Whoever did that episode of Freddy's Nightmares they must have seen the Nightmare on Elm Street 2 movie way too much lol

As for the other horror movie series documentaries like His Name was Jason and Halloween 25 Years of Terror, I think some of the stuff such as interviews of the cast of Friday the 13th part 5 I can pretty much watch on the Deluxe Edition DVD for Friday the 13th Part 5 where that gal with the real name Lark Vorhees I think is probablt the same interview from the His Name was Jason and the perv jerk producer talking about the gal's huge boobs.

Really, you gonna talk about an actress's boobs on a docuemtnary interview where she's probably sitting right next to you

It's worth every penny, oops, I mean cent of that £9.99, oops, I mean $9.99 asking price just to hear the cast & crew of Part 2 all claim that they were oblivious of the films blatant homo-erotic overtones as they were making it. Yeah, right!!!
Plus - 10 dollars? Isn't that about 6 quid? I lose more than that running for the bus you cheapskate OP!!!

Very worth it IMO, the interviews are so interesting, and some of the cameos are hilarious.

I think we can all agree it's an excellent documentary. And what some people haven't mentioned is that some of the women are still pretty hot 15-30 years later...

If you're a fan of NOES it's a must have.

Well I popped in the 2nd disc of Never Sleep Again and watched only the NIghtmare on Elm Street in 10 minutes and the Elm Street 2 Interviews

Cute moment where Mark Patton and that one gal reunited.

Tuesday Knight.....holy crap lol

Clu Gulager has not aged well. Yeesh

Not sure about the Phantasm one, but if you get a chance to pick up The Psycho Legacy, that one's certainly worth a watch. Also, I'm not a big F13 fan but I enjoyed His Name Was Jason. Plus the Ultimate Friday the 13th set has a number of killer featurettes, as well.

I haven't made it all the way through it (first 3 movies I think) but I really liked what I saw.
Super interesting.

There's lots of good stuff. Tons of interviews, a tour of the original Nightmare's locations, a featurette on a bunch of people who offer hand-crafted Freddy gloves for sale on line, and a whole lot more. The only thing I don't remember a lot of is actual on-set, behind the scenes stuff, but that was covered pretty well in the bonus disc that came with the Elm Street box set back in the late 90s (another one really worth getting your hands on).
