"Dreams That Kill" is an episode of the syndicated TV anthology
Freddy's Nightmares. You've guessed it; the series was spun off from the popular (and gruesome)
Nightmare on Elm Street films. Robert Englund repeats his screen role as the hideous Freddy Krueger, though he's not quite as homicidal on the small screen. In this 60-minute installment, Freddy announces that he wants to become a talk show host. This devices segue into the evening's drama, a story of...well, of dreams that kill. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
