Death-by-mouth


Anybody notice how the female victims all die by having something rammed in their mouth? Bottle, flare gun, the tire iron... Only Mrs Crenshaw is excepted.

I wonder if it's something to do with them 'blabbing' the secret?

How true. Men will be boys? In a DVD commentary, Margo Harshman (Chubs) says it's ironic that her character died when a bottle was shoved down her throat, as she was so experienced with such things - then gasps and says, "Oh, sorry Dad!" And Leah Pipes (Jessica) says wryly that the writers seemed to be fixated in the oral phase (of psychosexual development, according to Freud) and really needed to move on to the anal (the next.)

I heard somewhere that the fact that Chugs, Claire, and Jessica all died by being impaled in the mouth had two symbolic meanings.

#1:Since they were the main ones that opted to not go to the police to report the accidental death of Megan and rather forced Cassidy and Ellie to keep the secret, they hypocritically told somebody closest to them about the crime. A secret they've sworn to keep yet told someone else most likely due to a guilty conscience. That takes into account that they ran their mouths(in Jessica's case, one too many times) when they were the ones who didn't want the authorities to get involved and thus, paid dearly with their lives for breaking their own rule.

#2:These three girls are shown to be promiscuous, totally slutty, reckless, and self-absorbed. It's been heavily implied a couple of times throughout the film that their sexual behavior is rather excessive and starting to cause problems(ex. Chugs sleeping with her psychiatrist and Jessica was the girl that Garrett was cheating on Megan with). Especially the way they act and dress. So possibly, an object or weapon impaled through the mouth represented their disgusting, rampant sexual behavior. In which makes them gross and indecent even in death.

In both cases, it just shows you what happens when your mouth gets you into trouble.

Yes typical sorority girls.

Slut-shaming... and from a girl, no less.

It's 2015 if people haven't caught on that walking around and behaving like a blow up doll isn't slutty than there is no help for them. Male or Female.

Nobody needs to ever know how much sex you are having. It's not a disease it's a choice.

You use “slut” like it’s a BAD thing.

Now, a “pig,” on the other hand . . .

Yes. Andy says as he slams the tire iron into Jessica's mouth that she "needs to learn to keep her mouth shut."

reply

Yeah but jessica talks a lot though. She won't shut up. Definitely a sexual thing and also something to do with secrets.
