A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge

averagejohn shared a tip "I loved this one! It goes from the first one, which is just him slashing in dreams, to more of a reason why he's slashing in dreams. He wants to cause mayhem in real life, but can't so he needs a host to do his killings for him. It's cool, bloody, creepy, funny all in the same movie. It's like the first one, but I think better."

realstibby shared a tip "Pride month Day 3: The Gay Nightmare. This movie was written by a gay man and the lead actor was also gay. The writer has since said that it is a large scale metaphors for his then closeted homosexuality. This is evident when you watch the film as it's very homoerotic at points but much like the fashion of Judas Priest being inspired by gay bdsm culture this largely snuck by not only audiences in the 80s but the director himself. There will probably be a few horror movies mentioned if I keep doing this pride month thing because I truly love horror and think it has a unique ability to explore interesting themes."

john_tobar shared a tip "Flying off the tracks this sequel throws out the rules presented in the groundbreaking original to become an entirely separate monster. Out of the dreams and trying to possess a teenage boy having confusion about his sexuality. The movie is bold in it’s ideas and executed with some ingenious gore and now classic dialogue the movie is fun, breezy, and a misunderstood masterpiece. I give it 👶👶👶 three “Your all my Children Nows!”"
