Considering you rate it as your least favorite, but still give it an 8\10, you must really love the other ones. What is it that makes you rate it lower than the others?

Just preference really. There's not a huge difference. But this is not last on my list. Freddys Dead and the remake I do not like.

I was just curious as to what aspects you like more about the others. While I think the first Elm St. is the best, Part 3 is my favorite to watch. That is if one considers best and favorite to be mutually exclusive regarding film.

I didn't like the remake at all, but I preferred Freddy's Dead over Part 5. It was more fun and entertaining. Part 5 has a superficial visual style about it that I don't like, and I find many aspects of it uneven, unlikable, boring and even derivative. The deaths became over the top and silly and while they were attempting to be inventive and slick, it wasn't really the Freddy we knew from the first few installments, where his knives caused most of the slashing and mayhem. It was a self-conscious effort to make a stylized Freddy movie and I think it lost some soul or even heart in the process. I liked the director's Predator 2 so much better.
