Oh my goodness! I don’t think I could sit through something like this, ever. I don’t think I could watch it even for academic reasons (if you could drum up an academic reason to fit) I used to enjoy “mayhem movies “, but found that they gave me nightmares; I couldn’t sleep, so now I avoid them absolutely 🤭🤭

Oddly enough, it didn't seem violent. It was more intellectual. The bad stuff happened, but we didn't really see it. More suggested. The filmmaker I think was horrified by the mouse with a human ear growing out of it, and he had to explore that theme. I spent years studying comparative literature, so looking at this from that perspective came naturally to me.
I don't watch violent movies. I turn away or leave the room. Even the rape scene isn't really violent. All you see are their faces. And, remember, she sees this creature as her offspring. Makes the whole thing very complicated.
That's what I found fascinating. Although, I don't think I would watch it again. Enough :)))
