Movie • 2019 • Horror
ReportCry Baby, a strong and sensitive girl, is sent off to a disturbing sleepaway school that’s hidden underneath a grandiose façade. Luckily, she has a sweet and unapologetic best friend who sticks up for her when she gets bullied by the other students whose brains are under control by the Principal and his wicked staff. With the help of the magical friends they meet along the way, as well as an Angelic Spirit Guide, they are able to gain the strength they need to fight off the school’s belligerent patriarchal conditioning.

In the beginning of the film, there’s a tarantula. Tarantulas aren’t actually bugs, so there technically aren’t any, but it could still possibly be triggering to someone whose sensitive to spiders and spider-like creatures.

For my fellow emetophobes: right after the food fight scene, one of the "Barbie" girls runs out of the room, Melanie follows her into the bathroom. You can hear what really just sounds like soft crying, but then it switches to a close-up of the "barbie" thr*wing up.
