Freddy is a sociopathic madman and killer of children / teenagers - he's also a horror movie villain whose existence is to kill gruesomely.. as such he will never ever be remorseful, if he does it is a small change of character that will disappear within the next movie or series - for Nightmare on Elm Street to survive as a franchise Freddy has to remain an utterly remorseless demon.. it's cliched, sure.. but in the end that is how it is, the creators are not going to give up the money Nightmare makes by having Freddy became a more "lovable" character.

You may sympathize with Freddy but it doesn't excuse anything he did and as for him doing what he did as revenge on the parents - that doesn't justify raping and killing countless teens who had nothing to do with it.

Freddy is no more remorseful than Joker, who states he shows "guilt" but goes right back to killing afterwards - also, like Lotso Freddy may have a tragic backstory but the moment he started raping kids he lost the right for sympathy.. unless you want to pull the old "has no control over his actions" thing, which is not appliable to Freddy as he's functional enough to understand basic right and wrong.. he just doesn't care.
