This is part of the nurs ery rhyme that often echoes throughout the "Nightmare on Elm Street" saga, but the familiar red-striped sweater and deadly glove may haunt theatqr owners' dreams no more. "Freddy's Dead, the Final Nightmare," which opened Friday, promises to be the last installment of the Freddy Krueger epic. "Freddy's Dead" follows the afterlife of America's favorite dreamboat, this time bringing Freddy's forgotten daughter into the nightmare to kill her mon strous father. Movie Review This final chapter opens with the nightmare of the last surviving teen of Springwood, the town where Freddy Krueger killed and was killed. The boy suffers from amnesia, but knows that he is on a quest to find Freddy's long-lost daughter Maggie who was taken away and put up for adoption. In this edition, Freddy's story is told at last - the history of his horrible childhood, and how he killed his wife after she discovered Freddy's horrible secret in the family's base ment. The boy is taken into a half way house in a nearby city, where he meets, conveniently enough, Freddy's daughter, a counselor there. In an attempt to solve his amnesia, they travel back to Springwood and Elm Street, carry ing with them a few stowaways from the shelter. They find the town void of children (Freddy has killed them all) and shortly, the three boys meet their typically gruesome fates at the points of Freddy's razored glove. What's so difficult about an exploding head, a live Ninetendo game, and a bed of spikes to ol' Freddy? But enough play. To escape Springwood in search of new vic tims, Freddy "possesses" Maggie. "Every town has an Elm Street," he howls, as the street sign sprouts in front of the runaway center in the nearby town. Maggie rushes back to the run away home, where she discovers that no one can remember the three boys Freddy has killed. He has erased them! Through the help of one of Maggie's fellow coun selors who studies dreams, the daughter brings her evil father through to real life, where they face off in a battle to end Freddy's nightmares once and for all. Or will it? Only time will tell. Freddy pleads with Maggie that her adoption spurred his evil soul to make a pact with the "dream demons" that gave him immortality...and free-reign over the dreams of the children of Springwood. Freddy pleads with Maggie that he loved her and her mother. Will Maggie be fooled by his malicious cries? The final battle. Good Maggie vs. Bad Freddy, takes place in 3D, which makes it all the more an ex citing finally for the series. Just re member not to put on the 3D glasses until Maggie enters her 3D dream. "Freddy's Dead" is evil genre done good. Freddy, though some of his tales got a little...well, stupid...has always been a cult hero, and a better example of a movie psycho than Jason (Friday the 13th) ever was. This final chapter is a suitable end to the series. Sprinkled with cameos, the movie even gives fans a glimpse of Freddy (Robert En- glund), pre-burned. Alice Cooper is Freddy's abusive step-father, and Roseanne and Tom Arnold show up in Springwood as griev ing parents. As usual, this "Nightmare" is full of the same kind of crowd pleasing one-liners and gross-outs from Freddy. In one scene he counts on his fingers the ways past protagonists have tried to kill him, cutting off digits one by one. And blood lovers, not to worry - there's no shortage of hemoglobin here. Well, "Freddy's Dead," and for now, he will rest in villain heaven, or hell, at least for another year. At any rate, "Freddy's Dead" is a great movie to end on. Five, six, grab your crucifix... D.R.U.M. to play at AnNam By Kevin Robinson TheBattalion D.R.U.M.(Divine Rhythm,United Motion) brings their own unique blend of per cussion-driven reggae and world beat music to the AnNam Tea House on Friday. The Houston-based band de scribes their extensive repertoire as samba, Zulu, funk, Yoruba, jazz, reggae and Ashanti, with lyrics in over four languages. The band relies on their belief in the power of the drum, and in corporates numerous varieties of both traditional and modern African percussion into their mu sic. Although originally starting out in 1986 as basically an acous tic and percussion band, D.R.U.M. has since added gui tars, bass and keyboards to ex pand its sound. Since then the group has seen their reputation grow as one of the bright spots in the city’s world beat scene, playing the Houston Peace Fest, Fitzgeralds and Calypso's. When these guys say they use a lot of percussion they mean it. Although the music of D.R.U.M. is highly danceable, the band says they also try to have meaning and message in their lyrics, using the influences of Bob Marley, Fela and John Coltrane.
