Oh, thank God. Another movie in which the female desire to ensnare a man into marriage and fatherhood is caricatured to psychotic proportions. The "Desperate Bitch" theme has been thinning out since its "I won't be ignored" heyday, I was concerned that a whole generation of American males might reach sexual maturity un-warned.
Norman is a successful, handsome young stud who is having casual sex with the luscious Dori. He just wants to have fun. But she "thinks she's his girlfriend".
Uh-oh.
Naturally, the next step is to lure him to an isolated cabin in the woods where they will be met by her parents who want to know his intentions and a couple of kids who call him "daddy". I bet you can guess what happens next. That's right. She and her "family" bind and torture Norman while they simulate a years worth of holidays in order to prove her theory that staying together for the holidays is the litmus test for a couple lasting foreeeever and everrrr and evvvveeeeerrrrrr.
Never forget, boys. A pretty girl is all fun and games until her biological clock kicks in. After that she's basically Leatherface.
One final note, by far the most chilling image to come out of this trailer is a trio of mother and children singing carols while wearing bunny masks. The most chilling image to come out of "Fatal Attraction" is the rabbit in the pot. I hesitate to speak for another species, but I bet rabbits are sick and tired of getting dragged into this bullshit genre.
