Why not getting his revenge on the boys who beat the crap out of him?!?


I mean sure those girls were b!tches but what about those awful boys who almost whacked him at the prom?

One reason is, it wouldnt go with the theme of the movie.

reply

Cause it never got a sequel.

reply

Because he "loved" them..he mainly wanted to get revenge on Dorothy cause she sent him to reform school. But decided to go after them all cause they were who he blamed and had the vendetta against. They rejected him and he is a sociopath. They don't mix.

reply

Because they would make great targets for a sequel.

reply

It is called mysoginia.
It's easier for him to blame the rude and nasty popular girls, and Dorothy, and attack them, because they are females. He wouldn't dare to go after grown up men.
Kate was polite, he shouldn't be nasty to her.
I HATE nasty biatches, but I hate more weak psycho men who threat and attack women.

Please excuse my terrible redaction, english is not my native language.

huh??? he killed three men in this movie. one who was tall and had muscle, another who was a detective, and a guy in tights. 

It's VERY loosely based on a book where a group of girls set him up and humiliate him, entirely differently to do the film. No boys are involved.

But in slasher film terms, you don't often get movie plots were the killer targets only men, because horror is all about women shrieking and running, wandering into the dark with a candle - and the one female who fights back. It doesn't work if you flip the genders.

That said, the boys should've at least been mentioned as having been murdered or something as what they did was far more humiliating. The women are ALL coded as nasty bar Kate and all are punished for it (bar the stepmother, who was killed in a deleted scene), yet men like Lily's sleazy boyfriend and the guy who lures Paige upstairs are allowed to live... It's really quite viciously conservative.

reply

yet other men were killed. what is your point. the maid and stepmother obviously killed because they were in the way. the guy tied up was blindfolded, so he wasn't in the way.lily's boyfriend, was far away from lily when she was killed, therefore not a witness/threat. even though later in the movie he was hitting on kate, the killer was too busy killing everyone else to find out he has hit on her. so why would he die at that moment.

Yeah, the killer seemed to be sexist (and maybe the movie as well?). The boys were much more vicious.

reply

You do know he killed men, right?

reply

Buy a dictionary. Being sexist does not mean "only killing women".

reply

But you're implying he went after them because they were women.

reply

Duh. He never went after the boys, now did he? The men he killed were collateral damage, not the targets of his revenge. Is your IQ so low because of inbreeding?

reply

Playing the IQ games now lol. Behaving like a toddler and now questioning my IQ. Now back to your ramblings. How do you know he never went after the boys? He could've killed them before the events of the film, the deleted scene seem to indicate this. Hypothetically, let's say he did kill the boys, should the girls be let off the hook when the main one was responsible for the whole thing? Your mommy must not love you which is why you're acting out.

reply

Don't cry because YOU made it personally.

I know he never went after the boys because the movie never even implies it. I'm not going to make up shit like you.

The fact that you think anyone should be killed proves you're mentally disturbed. Go suck your daddy's dick if you hate women so much.

reply

Only one crying here is you and you demonstrate it with the name calling & creepy sexual remarks.

Say if he did go after the boys, should Dorothy be let off the hook?

I don't hate women, I just dislike bitches and the fact you think it's ok to bully people shows you're the one who is disturbed.

reply

Your immediate assumptions about my person when you chose to respond to multiple 6 year old posts of mine is what's creepy.

Also creepy is how you think he should go after anybody.

I don't defend the boys, so I certainly don't support bullying. You act just like them, though.

I really hope they never let you out of that institution, every woman should fear for her life just because you might perceive her as a "bitch".

reply

So I can't respond to your posts? Then maybe don't post.

If someone ruined your life, I highly doubt you're gonna walk around with a smile on your face, it doesn't work like that.

You defend Dorothy and the girls and they were the bigger bullies, the boys were thugs but they were manipulators.

Every guy should fear for their life, someone like you come along and destroy their life, like a regular Cassidy Boon.

reply

I wonder why the boys who spanked Jeremy did NOT go to the reformatory

reply

School principals punish according to what students do. Assault isn't considered to be as bad as sexual assault.

reply

He targeted specifically the girls because he remembers the cruel things they've said to him and Dorothy lied about him forcing himself on her..


reply

Really I think it was said, in interview or more likely commentary, that a sequel was planned where he'd go for the guys next, but since the movie didn't do so well, they didn't bother.

So my headcanon says that he already went after the guys, or was going to go for them shortly after movie's events, then Kate founds out the truth and she's eventually the one to kill him.

reply

The boys who beat him up were a completely reactionary factor. They never would have attacked him if Dorothy hadn't lied.

It's got nothing to do with gender. Simple cause and effect.

reply

Oh please, they were looking for a reason to beat him up. Dorothy only lied because those boys were humiliating her.

reply

And Dorothy gave them a reason and not only that, but ruined his life as well.

reply

I'm sure many people have given you a reason to off yourself, but you're still here, aren't you?

reply

What 🤣
What do you mean by that? Did I touch a nerve? You seem to be making it personal.

reply

"You seem to be making it personal."

Good god, how delusional are you? Read back your own comments, you started with the personal attacks about me never blaming women and being a "bulky". Are you off your meds again?

reply

I just made a light comment. I mean, remember, you called people morons for sympathising with the killer. Don't dish it out if you can't take it bitch 🤪

reply

"A light comment"? You acted like the typical enraged incel bombarding me with personal attacks, just because of a few non-offensive comments I made 6 years ago. The hypocrisy is strong with you, lunatic.

reply

Mines was light compared to yours when you called people morons. Get that victim mentality out.
