2. Freddy Becomes A Hot Nurse - A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987)
In the third entry of the NOES series, Freddy Krueger takes his dream stalking crusade away from Elm Street to Westin Hills, a psychiatric hospital for the youth. In one of the most memorable moments of the film, Joey, a mute, unaware that hes asleep, is seduced by the nurse who caught his eye earlier in the story. The impossibly attractive nurse invites Joey to unzip her uniform, and as he does, he looks like Ralphie in A Christmas Story unwrapping his Red Ryder BB gun. They begin to make out but, of course, the nurse is actually Freddy in disguise, who merges her tongue with Joeys, and then uses more tongues to restrain the poor kid to the bed. In what is the holy grail of deleted scenes that needs to find its way to the light, originally the nurse was supposed to morph into Freddy much more gradually. Namely, the nurses head would have morphed into Freddys. They went so far as to film it with their actress in full make-up, but everyone looked at it and felt that the (disturbing) sight of Freddy Kruegers head on a bare-chested woman was simply too much, even for an Elm Street movie. But still, any NOES fan would be lying if they said they weren't interested in seeing it for themselves.
