Trivia

Goofs
When Christine first starts singing to the phantom in front of the fireplace near the beginning, her voice doesn't match her lip movement.

Not just another Nightmare Elm flick

This is not just Robert Englund being Freddy yet again. The music, storyline, and direction are just awesome. The music for one is outstanding (hint try finding the soundtrack though) It is available but hard to get. But I disagree with Tim, this isnt just Englund playing a suave Freddy. Theres a lot more to the whole Phantom of the Opera storyline, and this movie, than Freddy will ever have hands down. Just ask Jason hahahah
