Scream, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street
Directed by Roman Chimienti, Tyler Jensen
Some have called it the 'gayest horror movie ever made!' But for Mark Patton, the star of A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge, it was anything but a dream come true. Detailing the homophobia and Aids-phobia of 1985 as a closeted actor in Hollywood, Mark retraces his obstacles, missteps, and detractors on the pathway to stardom. 35 years after its initial release, Patton is hitting the road to set the record straight about the controversial sequel and the experience that halted his career before it even began. A SHUDDER EXCLUSIVE.

good doc with a happy ending
3.5 out of 5. I found this to be quite a fascinating documentary.
YAWN! Another “victim” documentary. “ ohhh feel sorry for me because I was gay”. Dude couldn’t move on and held a grudge for 20 plus years. Don’t waste your time unless you are into Pity Me films.
Where the hell did all Nightmare on Elm Street movies disappear since yesterday? Wanted to watch all of them, started, managed to watch 2, gone now! You should at least let your subscribers know the deadline when the movies they plan watching become unavailable here.
Learned so much about the man behind the character. A great doc about queer history. A must watch.
