packs in plenty of barbs aimed at toxic masculinity , and Steve, who at first seems legit, is later revealed to be a narcissist with a sense of entitlement every bit as well-developed as Chad. He’s like one of those guys who wears a “This is What a Feminist Looks Like” T-shirt but secretly hates women. “Oh man, I talk to people about that all the time,” says Cave, laughing.
This brings us back to Steve, who doesn’t eat “animals”, and a curious fact about many cannibal stories: they often feature vegetarian and/or vegan characters.

And in, Taissa becomes a vegetarian after surviving the crash, while the sociopathic Missy has a fondness for beef jerky bought from petrol stations.
As we lurch from one disaster to another, it’s easy to feel like humanity’s mask is slipping, Lecter-like, to reveal the monster within.
