Just when you thought it was safe to sleep, Freddy Krueger returns in this sixth installment of the Nightmare on Elm Street films, as psychologist Maggie Burroughs, tormented by recurring nightmares, meets a patient with the same horrific dreams. Their quest for answers leads to a certain house on Elm Street - where the nightmares become reality.

Feminist, post-apocalyptic sci-fi actioner - based on the comic strip series by Alan Martin and Jamie Hewlett - with the tagline: "In 2033, justice rides a tank and wears lip gloss". Set in a drought-ravaged Australia (though shot largely in Arizona), Tank Girl (Petty) fights a mega-corporation which controls the water supply. Co-stars Naomi Watts, Ice-T and Malcolm McDowell. Features a soundtrack by Courtney Love.
