5.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Longest Day (1962)?

If one accepts that Freddy was in Hell following his defeat in Freddys Dead: The Final Nightmare (which was released in 1991 but actually set in the future), interesting timeline clues emerge. Namely, "Freddys Dead" took place (according to the beginning crawl) "ten years from now". As noted, Freddys Dead: The Final Nightmare came out in 1991. However, the "Nightmare on Elm Street" Companion website opted to interpret "10 Years from Today" as 10 years from 1989 (events of the prior film to the "Final Nightmare", A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Child). In any event, if "Jason Goes To Hell" follows the events of "Freddys Dead", then it must take place in either 1999 or 2001.
