A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 One-Sheet Poster

Description

Original 1988 one-sheet movie poster for “A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master,” the New Line Cinema slasher sequel directed by Renny Harlin and starring Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger. The artwork depicts Freddy’s face emerging from a fedora with an eyeball-tipped mechanical claw, hovering over a wrecked-car junkyard scene above the tagline “Terror Beyond Your Wildest Dreams.” Measuring to the standard one-sheet size, this is a striking piece of late-80s horror movie advertising art.

The poster carries full film credits along the lower portion, including screenplay by Brian Helgeland, story by William Kotzwinkle and Brian Helgeland, characters created by Wes Craven and Scott Pierce, music by Craig Safan, and production credits for Robert Shaye and Rachel Talalay. Copyright line reads “MCMLXXXVIII New Line Cinema Corporation,” confirming the 1988 release date, and the poster bears the MPAA “R” rating box along with the Dolby Stereo logo. The New Line Cinema film-reel logo appears in the lower left corner.

The poster is currently displayed under clear plastic mounting points at each corner, likely for framing or wall display, with the mounts visible through small punched holes at the edges. The overall surface shows strong color retention with no fading or discoloration noted. Corners and edges present clean and flat with no visible tears, creasing, or paper loss in the areas photographed.
