whats the message here?


what messages these kinds of perverted movies want to send? i dont get it, i never got horror movies except for Alien. but this one is beyond weird and it seems hollywood right now wants to make more of this.

The rich get richer and the poor get eaten.

Please don't ask about the future, I am not a fortune teller.

Is this the film where the guy says Who u calling Butthead?? If so yes def weird.

reply

Yep.. :)

I don't see "Hollywood" make these type of Cronenbergian horror movies these days.. Maybe the more independent niche movies?

Also while yes the movie was weird, the messages/metaphors were not that subtle.. It's all about class wars and how the upper class feeds off of the lower class and simultaneously looks down on them... told through weird body horror and incest party's. :P

They kinda hit you over the head with the message, especially with lines like "the rich have always sucked off low-class *beep* like you". Only this movie takes it wayyy too literally.
