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. Thirty 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.
