Revealing mistake: When Jesse is cleaning out his room, he puts a tape into his tape player, and presses a button down on the top of it. But halfway though the scene of him packing his things away, you can clearly see the button is no longer pressed down, yet the tape still plays. (00:18:10 - 00:19:00)
Ron Grady: So, what about you and that rich babe you've been cruising to school with every day.
Jesse Walsh: What about her?
Ron Grady: Are you mounting her nightly or what?
Trivia: This film is notorious for having undertones and themes that many perceive as homoerotic, and the events of the film are often perceived by critics as a personification of the lead character Jesse being tormented by being "in the closet" and unable to be true to himself. While the makers of the film initially denied that this subtext was intentional, screenwriter David Chaskin recently admitted that the subtext was intentionally written into the script in order to give the characters and story depth.
Question: Whenever Freddy emerges from Jesse in the real world, why doesn't he have his glove on? Why are his blades coming out of his fingers?
Answer: He's a dream demon and uses his powers to torment Jesse in any way he could, including having claws or even Freddy himself burst out of Jesse.
Correction: His head moves because he wasn't dead yet. After his head turns to the side, he dies.
