3.0

 This was a bizarre story that tried to pack in a lot of misogynistic horror within a very specific plot and ending. It was strange because at times it reaches the depths to address and recognize the pain and horror misogyny causes, but most of the time it stays at a surface level and the story glides, almost literally, over the backs of broken women to get there. This is definitely a cathartic release that I think many people may enjoy, but the trauma to get there might be too real or too high of a mental price to pay for others.

CW: misogyny, cat calling, rape, abuse, death, murder, and homophobia.
