Jesses's Gay!
6 September 2006
Warning: Spoilers
This movie is one to watch with a group of friends on a boring night it will give you tons of material to make fun of and that is why I love this movie. When I first watched it I thought it to be just a piece of garbage to best be overlooked and go on to Nightmare On Elm Street 3: The Dream Warriors. But as I got older I realized that this film is so bad it's good. Mark Patton is one of the best actors in the series and his Jesse character is one of the most memorable. I love what he did with the role. I also like how he subtly makes you think maybe just maybe he's gay and not really just terrified by Freddy. Freddy almost acts a parable in this one. He is Jesse's homosexuality coming out but he can't say that because of the time he is living in. I know that is deep but that is what I take from this film and I find it funny. You could say this is just another slasher movie, and you would be right if that is the view you wish to take on this film, but I am here to tell you, if you watch this as a metaphor than it will greatly improve your experience of watching the film. Watch this one to laugh and makes jokes with your friends about.
