sophie thatcher really elevates this. it’s a great concept and paradigm of society to explore satirically- the power dynamics of a relationship under patriarchy. the problem is- beyond showing how shitty jack quaid’s character is- we’re not really given the depth that the concept could allow. as a result, what we receive is a well done slasher with an actress giving a phenomenal performance- but the screenplay kind of fails to meet its potential after the first act sets a fantastic scene.
extra half a star for the lil boo thang drop that absolutely KILLED me both times.
