Director Zoe Kravitz’ “Blink Twice” opens with a trigger warning, according to Film Threat founder Chris Gore.
People magazine has the scoop.
“Blink Twice is a psychological thriller about the abuse of power…While this is a fictionalized movie, it contains mature themes and depictions of violence — including sexual violence. This may be upsetting or triggering for some viewers. For resources that offer support, visit BlinkTwiceResources.com.”
Absurd? A sign of the times? Cinematic progress?
Put all of that aside. If this is the wave of the future, then we need trigger warnings on the following titles:
