It's absolutely cringeworthy to think that this entire time, Part 2 was all about Jesse fighting his homosexuality. Hence, Freddy is essentially Jesse's gayness.
I didn't mind that gay touch, being gay myself, and it was an interesting subtext and should not really be viewed as subversive. That only endorses homophobia and the scorn and contempt many still feel for it. It wasn't exactly subtle, but confusingly handled, so not exactly obvious to those who might take their sexuality for granted. It deliberately blurred the line, so as not to make people cringe about Jesse's sexuality..."Oh my Gosh, he likes dudes! That is more shocking than the graphic violence and horror portrayed before me". 
Like, WHAT?! That alone makes gay people look bad and contagious, which is something that I cannot support at all. Oh well, at least it wasn't blatantly clear about the theme, I suppose.
