User Reviews: Nightmares certainly won’t give you nightmares today! My favorite segment was the second one, the one with Emilio Esteves battling the video game. I think that story of the film captures the feeling of the early part of the eighties very well. My second favorite segment was the third one with Lance Henriksen battling the truck from hell. Personally I’d say the first and last episodes are the weakest parts of the movie. I like Nightmares though mostly for personal reasons not neccesarily quality reasons. I was 13 when it came out and it was one of the very first movies I ever rented. It’s sometimes hard for me to believe that 1983 was really 16 years ago but watching this movie which looks so dated today now makes it easier to believe!
