Whaaaaaaaaaaat

So normally I don’t really love the

women be crazy

genre of horror, or

gross out

horror, but here they join together perfectly in a <spoiler >gross disgusting sad fucked up tense whirlwind of ewwwww. </spoiler >

I can’t recommend this to anyone. It was literally nauseating. But it felt authentic and real and rough. 

The Dr. Fawning thing

was a bit obvious too early for the reveal to have proper impact, but overall, I loved it bc it did show that deep inside she had juuuust enough self awareness to almost be able to help herself. But not enough, not enough.</spoiler >
