This week on Fruitloops: Serial Killers of Color, Wendy & Beth take a detour into horror with a review of Scream, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street.

Scream Queen! is a documentary about actor Mark Patton, the star of A Nightmare on Elm Street 2, and his experience as a closeted gay man in 1980s Hollywood. The film explores the homoerotic subtext of the horror sequel, the backlash Patton faced, and his journey to reclaim his story. It’s a personal and powerful look at the intersection of queer identity and pop culture.
