@snowrunner should have read your comment before posting mine ;) one thing I wonder about.. The scene where they are all at Annies sisters birthday dinner. Martha is constantly interupting her husband and that other woman is telling her husband to stop "mansplaining" when he just want's to add a remark. Wonder if that was meant as a "deeper" insight on how annoying women can be themselves or just so Marthas husband can yell later that she always interrupts him... I don't know what I hate more, that the word mansplaining actually exists or that people keep using it in the wrong situations...

I have read and seen prior adaptations of “The Screwfly Solution” and always thought it was a good story.
This? This is the “#metoo" version and as such it fell flat on me. It wasn’t even subtle in it. The entire “hook” in the end is that men are choosing to be evil monsters who want to rape, pillage and destroy just as soon as they are given the tiniest excuse to behave that way..
The worst thing about the ending was that it wasn’t even well written. it’s not like we got some actual story telling. We outright have the characters deliver the explanation at the last second. Bad writing all around.
