What we consider remorseful villains are those whose remorse lasts and who act to follow it. The problem with Freddy is that for most of the saga, he is portrayed as an unrepentant, perverted, and gleefully evil sadist who performs horrible deeds purely for the evulz, while cracking awful jokes and cackling like a maniac. And this is this portrayal that sticks when anyone thinks of Freddy Krueger.

If you ask me, I even got the impression that his remorse was faked. But the final nail to the coffin is that canonnically Freddy VS Jason comes after Freddy's Death. Meaning that whether or not his remorse was real, it did not last. Just like Dracula, who shows remorse at the end of Symphony of the Night, but returns to his old ways in the following games. 1. freddy's jokes aren't awful
