Orphan

The other night I saw a new horror movie called "Orphan". I'm the kinda girl who LOVES a good horror film, but with about 90 % of horror movies, I just sit there judging the poor plot, acting, special effects and directing that most horror movies - And movies in general - Have. However, this one was great and it was really freaking scary - Seriously, I got... What ya callit... Not exactly scared but you know... What good thrillers do... Thrill you... I got thrilled... Thinking it was really scary, wondering what would happen next.

So, I can safely say it's a very good movie. However, there was one thing in the movie that really disturbed me. There was a scene when a couple fucked in their kitchen, while their three children were at home, so they were a bit scared that the kids would walk in on them and one did walk in on them, a nine year old girl.

The next morning, the mom went to talk to her about it, explaining that when grownups love each other they wanna show it. The girl interrupts her mom, saying "I know. They fuck." This TOTALLY shocked the mom and she went to talk to her husband about it. "The way she said it, it wasn't like she had just overheard the word, it was like SHE KNEW WHAT IT MEANT", then, she added "It was like she didn't expect to get in trouble for it."

HELLO?! Earth to fictional mommy, of course a nine year old knows what sex is and uses the word "fucking" to describe it. It's informal. Children aren't supposed to say that grownups "have sex" or "make love", now THAT would be kinda creepy! Also, WHY would she get in trouble over it? She walked in on her parents fucking doggystyle in the kitchen. While their three kids were home. THEY should get in trouble.

Also, why would she get in trouble for telling her mom she already knows what sex is? "When grownups like each other, they want to show it..." "I know, they fuck." That seems like a very sensible and expected response from a nine year old girl. It would have been strange if she didn't know what sex was - Or if she used an expression like "have sex" or "make love", as I already pointed out, both because she's expected to be a bit angry and rude to her parents if they fuck in the kitchen while their kids are home, risking being walked in on (besides, parents don't make beautiful love to each other, parents fuck in disgusting and unholy ways, because, well, they're your parents) and because "fuck" is basically the first expression for sex that kids learn.

What the fuck, movie mom, how messed up is your sense of reality? Also, there was all the horror and scary stuff in the movie, but that's sorta expected in a horror movie, so yeah, that doesn't really disturb me, maybe if it was labeled as a children's movie, but it's a horror movie, so yeah.

It cannot succeed in actual fact, that is exactly what I think.
