Heather Langenkamp: If Freddy's loose, I mean, in your script, where's he going to go? Another age? Another form?
Wes Craven: That's not what the dreams say he's doing.
Heather Langenkamp: Then what is he doing?
Wes Craven: Well, see, he's gotten used to being Freddy now. And kinda likes it here in our time and space, too. So...he's trying to cross over, from film into our reality.
Heather Langenkamp: Isn't there anyone that can stop him?
Wes Craven: Interestingly enough, in the dreams there is one person. A gatekeeper, so to speak. Someone Freddy's got to get by before he can enter our world. [looks at her] It's you, Heather.
Heather Langenkamp: Me? Why me?
Wes Craven: Dramatically speaking it makes perfect sense. You played Nancy, after all, the first to humiliate and defeat him.
Heather Langenkamp: That was Nancy, not me!
Wes Craven: But it was you that gave Nancy her strength. So to get out he has to come through you. And it's inevitable that he'll hit you at your most vulnerable points...The way to stop him is to make another movie. And I swear to you I'll stay at my computer and keep writing until I finish the script. But when that time comes...You're gonna have to make a choice.
Heather Langenkamp: Choice? What kind of choice?
Wes Craven: Whether or not you will be willing to play Nancy one last time.
Wes Craven: That's not what the dreams say he's doing.
Heather Langenkamp: Then what is he doing?
Wes Craven: Well, see, he's gotten used to being Freddy now. And kinda likes it here in our time and space, too. So...he's trying to cross over, from film into our reality.
