Tagging along for the cannibalism and necrophilia is <em>Bloody Blunts Cinema Club</em>'s<em> </em>DeVaughn Taylor who has a unique appreciation for spooky nonsense and has a pretty killer theory about what Ruby, Sarah and Gigi are really up to. CW: sexual assault, necrophilia</p><p>Up for discussion: connections to <em>American Psycho</em>, Abbey Lee and Jena Malone appreciation, why Trace finds the film so uncomfortable and a sprawling discussion regarding accusations about the film's misogyny.</p><p>References:</p><ul><li>Chavez, Eliza. <em>Medium.
