Sure. Obvious spoilers Spoiler: Spoiler to anyone else reading...but I don't think Alice was the only victim of abuse in the family. If we're talking about the rest of the family, I felt, even though it wasn't as overt as with the eldest son, that it was pretty much implied that the abuse started with the father in the family (could also go further with the mother's father being neglectful too...), hence the cycle of generational abuse. You can see it in the behaviors in the dinner scene, obviously the dad is possessed by a Deadite at this point but at least in the beginning it seemed like nobody was all that shocked by some of his aggressive behaviors like they'd sort of been there before to an extent..and it would also explain why the wife felt compelled to let him back in via her denial/enabling plus the whole "without my family, I am nothing" mindset. This could also explain why the youngest son was so paralyzed to do anything when you'd expect him to take action when his girlfriend was being hurt because you could argue he had a freeze (trauma) response.

IMO, I don't think the film develops those ideas enough for them to support some of the characters' actions. There are moments when I can genuinely believe the trauma influenced a decision, and other times when it still feels like the plot requires characters to behave a certain way.

Also, is not one phone line available? :lol:

I just wish the movie had spent more time exploring those family dynamics because I think that's the most interesting part of the film. Instead, it seems to rush to the next gore scene.

I can't fathom being a horror fan and being bored by Burn when I was literally grinning ear to ear at the madness ensuing.

More for me then!

:lol: I'm glad it worked for you.

I just need more than gore and kills to stay invested, and the characters never really clicked for me.

The dinner scene I think gave a full depiction of each character in the movie.
