Summary

For our final week of Gay Divas and Anniversaries, we're revisiting Wes Craven's iconic 1984 franchise starter, A Nightmare on Elm Street for its 40th anniversary. From discussions about why Nancy (Heather Langenkamp) is *the* Final Girl to Fred(dy) Krueger's challenging backstory to the film's financial issues, this is the perfect capper to our two month theme. Plus: Sta Awake & a carafe full of coffee, the possibility of a new entry in the series, Marge's ties to Black Christmas' Mrs. Mack, and NoES' perfect homage to The Shining.
