The writer of this film, Neil LaBute, was raised and "educated" by the Mormons and he gained early success and recognition as a playwright on the stages of BYU. LaBute's long (albeit contentious at times) affiliation with the Church of child brides, sister-wives and holy underwear makes me wonder if his fondness for horror films and his preoccupation with evil partly stem from his upbringing in a cult. The Feds are currently investigating the predators in America's Catholic dioceses--hopefully someone is also doing a deep dive into the abusers among the ranks of the Mormons and Jehovah's Witlesses.

Thanks for being brave and virtuous in a time when those qualities seem rare--you always make a bee-line (pun intended) to what really matters.

I was wondering if the film she shows in her video at the end is some sort of mainstream film available anywhere. I was really shocked when that kid opened his mouth and said the words "let's just stay at your house and f**k next time." Like for real??? Unreal. P.S. thank you Honeybee, resteemed as well. The Richard Dickeson account was stalking me starting in December but I don't know who that Katie person is on his profile. Hopefully someone has warned her if they know her on Voat.
