YMMV / Nightmares

• Anti-Climax Boss: Glazier, Satan, and the rat.
• Fridge Logic: It turns out the giant rat is a mother looking for her (dead) baby. But rats generally have lots of offspring per litter, implying there are a dozen or so other babies unaccounted for, so Mama Rat's search is far from over...
• Hilarious in Hindsight: The Bishop of Battle. Even more so when you consider Lance Henriksen's involvement in the film (though not in that particular segment).
• Narm/Nightmare Retardant: Ironic, considering the film's title. The rat isn't particularly exciting and the Bishop of Battle comes off across as more cool and hammy than actually scary.
• Paranoia Fuel: You'll never see a black Chevy pickup the same way ever again.
• Retroactive Recognition: Lance Henriksen in his pre-The Terminator and Aliens role.
• Special Effect Failure: The rat was rendered using an early green-screen effect. Likewise, the Bishop of Battle and his "minions".
• So Bad, It's Good or So Okay, It's Average: The general opinion of the film.
• Unintentionally Unsympathetic: J. J. Cooney's fate was meant to be tragic but it's hard to feel for a character that lacked any likable traits, as he's driving away all his friends due to the obsession with the game and he yelled at his parents' attempt at disciplining him for his own faults of poor grades and skipping school.
