What do vegans even eat? Grass?

Peta is an op (hexbear.net)
 

Comically evil, yet somehow representative of all vegans in the media. They are 100% propped up by the dairy/meat industry.

I like this take. Although I don't think there was no friction, it was afresh breath of air from typical horror films and the baggage they carry.

But then wait, where does the brain go? Cause if they swapped brains, wouldn't Chris inhabit the other guy's body and the other guy inhabit Chris's? Or is the conscious detached from the brain somehow?

Ok that was the other part I didn't get. Chris would have still been in that subconscious below zone right? Maybe thats the key to everything.

spoilersNot sure how I feel about it. I feel the first half was really strong, there was a lot going for it while it explored the racism of the family. It had the perfect amount of unease and tenseness.

The second half kind of threw that all out of the window. Like, I felt like the story was trying to get people to introspect and bring to light a lot of the ingrained racism, and then it all got tossed aside for a sensationalist "brainwashing black people into subconscious slaves". The last little bit was exciting and high energy, but it felt shoehorned in.

Overall I liked the movie, but it felt like it was trying to be two different kinds of movies at once, and each side clashed as a result. What are your thoughts?

edit: apparently I completely misunderstood a part of the movie and now I understand what they were getting at. I should watch it again sometime and try to pick up anything else I missed.
