James and Em Foster are enjoying an all-inclusive beach vacation on the island of La Tolqa, when a fatal accident exposes the resort's perverse subculture of hedonistic tourism, reckless violence, and surreal horror.
(SPOILERS!!!) When a character said, "Bring out the dog!" I was very upset. And then, because I am the way I am, I was like "Oh, thank goodness. It's just a man on a leash!".
In a home invasion scene. Three people are bound and gagged. Subsequently. They are accidentally murdered by shooting. There are also multiple execution scenes in which a person is bound by the hands to prevent escape.
I have no idea where to put this but it needs to be mentioned- in a moment of great distress, a grown man sucks at a woman’s breast like an infant. it is profoundly unsettling.
There is something similar to a shower scene in which the main character is naked except a swim cap and is locked in a small, shower-like room with liquid that reaches mid-calf
The main character and three other characters are incarcerated in a foreign prison and coerced into signing a deal for their release. The main character is guilty, although the crime was an accident.
Answered "yes", but it's limited. There are two scenes in the early movie where characters are eating (a breakfast and a dinner). Some characters speak while chewing their food.
No. However in passing the main character jokes "if only" when it is pointed out the "real" version of himself could have been executed rather than his clone (without him having any way of knowing).
In addition to hallucination sequences, there’s a theme of identity/ consciousness. In one conversation characters explicitly wonder if they have been switched and are not themselves
There's a scene where a character is undergoing a fictional medical procedure. He's put into a small room with no windows and liquid starts to fill the room.
No, but there’s a cavalier brief discussion of sodomy being a capital offense in the country. The only person who says she was prosecuted for it is a woman and there’s no discussion of homophobia or homosexuality in the movie
Not debated. But there is a scene where a man questions wether it would be possible to know if you were the original, or the clone if you were cloned. In context of the movie it is existentially a disturbing question.
