The actor who played Jesse was in the closet at the time. When this movie came out, it was during the height of what’s called Gay Panic and early days of the AIDS crisis. And it caused The actor to not getting any more work. Essentially, he left the business after this and moved to Mexico. There’s an insightful documentary called Scream Queen, My Nightmare on Elm Street.

Freddy is Jesse's sexual confusion. It's a metaphor for the writer's own sexual confusion at the time. He claimed "it was supposed to be subtext" but it's blatantly there. FFS he had a Probe game in his closet and a sign on the door that said "no chicks." Jesse literally runs away from Lisa and goes to Grady, or the gay bar, and Freddy's only vanquished when he finally admits he loves her. Jesse is kind of the damsel-in-distress in the end and it's Lisa that saves him with the power of love. It's totally the point of the movie.

As a gay man and a huge horror fan, A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge is my favorite queer movie! This movie directly captures the experience of coming to terms with sexuality in an unforgiving and scary environment and I love it for that.

I always saw the ending as an allusion to a popular misconception at the time that finding the right woman/man (delete as appropriate) would "cure" homosexuality In the final act, it seems as though Jesse was "released from his demons" by Lisa's kiss, but the ending shows that really Freddy was still there all along

The actor playing Jesse, Mark Patton, is a gay man. He's said he was playing him as a closeted gay guy. The writer of the script also said the homosexual elements were intentional, and Freddy's actor was also well aware of them and leaned into it on purpose. Apparently, though, the director was either unaware or uninterested in that aspect while filming.

There are no other movies after that until Rob Zombie did his remakes and then the franchise was rebooted with the official sequel in 2018. Nope, none whatsoever. Regarding _Nightmare,_ the next three sequels showcase the smartass Freddy we all know and love, but don't forget _Wes Craven's New Nightmare_ and _Freddy vs. Jason,_ they're a lot of fun.

@@ferdinandferret Nah, that's the draw to do the movie. I haven't say anything about Nancy herself.

I haven't watched this one, but decided to watch your reaction anyway and no regrets. :O I'm actually gonna watch the whole movie later today because now I know it's right up my alley!

Watch the entire nightmare series too it’s so much fun! Love watching your reactions! ♥️

I'm glad you mentioned that about the bird in the cage. I think it's cruel too, they are made to fly vast distances, yet it's confined to a small little cage where it can't even fly. I feel the same about fish in a bowl. Fish swim vast distances yet they're confined to a small little bowl where they'll just swim around in circles for the rest of their lives. I also don't see the point of owning such animals. I love them so much but you will never give a fish the same amount of attention you would a cat or a dog, which is pretty sad as it's sacrificing it's whole life to imprisonment just for you to say 'look, I have a fish'. Seems too cruel to me and for such a pointless reason too. I mean why would you ever want a fish or a bird? What can you possibly get from keeping such animals in the restrictions they're kept in? They're quite literally there just for decoration. Sad.

Call me by your name….gets the waterworks turned on every time.

Interesting facts about A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985). In an interview in 1987, Robert Englund said he liked the beginning and end of this movie but had problems with the second act of the plot. Years later, he admits in the Never Sleep Again documentary that he didn’t have that many positive experiences working on the film and even felt that the atmosphere was off when shooting it, lamenting that he had the least fond memories with this entry. (2) Wes Craven refused to work on this film because he never intended to have the first film become an ongoing franchise (and even wanted it to have a happy ending). He also didn't like Freddy manipulating the protagonist into committing the murders. Heather Langenkamp was never asked or even considered for the producers to return to this sequel. Of the entire cast of the previous movie, Robert Englund is the only actor who returned, and even then only after the filmmakers thought the movie was in trouble. This would rarely be repeated for the rest of the franchise (only happening again in Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare and Freddy vs. Jason), which would always do its best to rescue living characters from previous films. (3) The exterior of the home featured fairly prominently in the movie. The address of the house in the movie was 1428 Elm Street in Springwood, Ohio. While the number remained the same as it is in real life, the true address is actually 1428 N Genesee Ave, Los Angeles, California. Located just over a mile away from Sunset Strip.

The Birdcage and The Perfection are two queer movies I love. Also, while not technically a queer movie, I do love the campiness and humor of Heathers.

I didn't watch the Perfection cause I was terrified by that trailer 🤣

*(THERE"S JUST BALLS FLYING AT ME)...LOL*

..."And y'all just leave him in torment?" 😂💀😂💀😂

“nooo! please, do not induct us into the federation of krueger!”

I LOVE watching your reactions to these classics! So funny! You should think about getting a Patreon! 😊

Girl your videos are my new favorite show lol. As a huge horror fan it’s so much fun watching your reactions to them. Also I highly recommend skipping Halloween 3. I swear only 8% of the horror fan community enjoys it, hell I can’t even stand the trailer 😂🤦🏾‍♀️

Wow! I have never watched these, I was already a full adult by the time they were coming out and I think I was too busy but damn, this is some scary shit! I'm so glad you're watching it and not me. ;-)

Thank goodness I'm not the only one that thinks Kim Myers looks like Meryl Streep in those days. For years I thought they were sisters ❣️

"You need to go to the DOC TOR!" 🤣

I just found your channel, not something I would normally watch, but boom subscribed and KEEP**** doing odd horror movies!!!

Your reactions always put me in a good mood!!!! Thank you

Hey Alanda. Another fantastic review 👏 Can't wait for your next movie review (especially "The Mist."

Yay my morning has been made better girl! I love “The Birdcage” if you have never seen it it’s incredible! It stars Robin Williams who is a drag Queen club owner. It’s legit a masterpiece and will have you laughing non stop Btw I respect your decision to do a poll for the Halloween’s lol so happy you are planning to continue!

Please watch part 3 dream warriors, it’s hands down the best sequel and is arguably better than the first movie, it’s also a direct follow up to part 1.

And did you know the main girl besides Nancy of course is played by a young Patricia Arquette who later went on to play in Medium. The main character Allison DuBois. Yep I know some movie and TV trivia haha

So when Nancy pulled him out of the dream world his powers came too. They didnt explain it properly and so 3 onward ignores this movie. His powers also directly tied to how much you fear him.

I think you should skip over to Halloween 4. It takes off after Halloween 2 and Danielle Harris is such a great actress in it (and she is only 8 years old at the time).

Taking another walk down Elm Street are we? Ah, the memories. :)
