@REALSONICDANGER Yeah what they pulled off in Nightmare 1 considered the budget is extraordinary. They had to think outside the box on that film. That set was a rotating set. It was actually upside down in that scene. They poured the water through the roof of the set which on camera is the bed.
@REALSONICDANGER Yeah Nightmare 1 was really low budget. 1.5 mil. They cut alot of corners to make that film. I'm sure that much fake blood would have been expensive. So they used water with red food coloring.
