A Nightmare On Elm Street
Probably the most recognizable horror movie ever, it spawned multiple sequels. The plot revolves around four teenagers who are stalked and killed in their dreams (and thus killed in reality) by Freddy Krueger. The teenagers are unaware of the cause of this strange phenomenon, but their parents hold a dark secret from long ago.
It is a very well done movie, except for some details (Nancy is super annoying). The theme is extremely scary, being killed while you´re most vulnerable, while you sleep.
I remember my brother got traumatized by it when we were kids, we stopped the movie at the scene where Tina gets killed, which is one of the coolest kill scenes in history, as well as Glen´s kill.
The movie feels surreal and the ending adds to that feeling. Was it all a dream? What really happened?

Possibly a cliché movie and the number of sequels that were made maybe have hurt the original a bit. But you can´t argue that it´s a classic and one of the biggest influences on pop culture.
