Did you know the original “Dream Warriors” music video featured Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger kissing a blood-soaked leg and blowing a blood bubble? Or that Don Dokken wrote a completely different version of “Dream Warriors” that was never used?

In this Metal and Monsters clip, horror icon Robert Englund—the man who brought the legendary Freddy Krueger to life on screen—and metal legend Don Dokken sit down to reveal the unheard stories, unseen photos, and the unforgettable memories from their Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors collaboration. From lost footage and stage blood mishaps to freezing cold sets and prosthetics falling off mid-pizza bite, if you’re a fan of the A Nightmare on Elm Street series, you’ll love this conversation, as it’s packed with the gritty, weird, and hilarious moments that made the 80s a golden age of metal and horror crossovers.

They reveal how New Line Cinema told Don Dokken he had to include the words “Dream Warriors” in the chorus, why his original up-beat version didn’t make the final cut, and how the band and Freddy were actually on set together, not edited in after the fact—a rarity back then when it came to making music videos which is something the fans of today still really appreciate.

For metal and horror fans, this is the deep-cut story behind the moment Freddy Krueger became a rock star and heavy metal became horror’s loudest weapon.
