Tbh for the graphic rape scenes and mutilation of women's bodies I had to endure and the fact that the word "defiled" is used more than once to refer to a raped woman (instead of, you know, literally any other word that doesn't make it sound like the woman has lost worth now or somehow willingly let someone take her worth from her instead of someone else violating her against her wishes) there was not enough payoff in the sense of societal criticism. I expected this to pack a punch in regards to what it would say about today's society. Instead this is just torture porn (in the truest sense of both words).
