We’ll never look at turkey basters the same way again.
If you haven’t yet seen Fede Alvarez’s Don’t Breathe, one of last year’s best horror films, we encourage you to avoid reading any further. Are you still here? Why are you still here?!
Okay, pretty sure it’s safe to talk spoilers now.
I saw an incredible amount of movies in the theater last year, but I don’t think I saw anything more genuinely shocking than the final act reveal of Don’t Breathe. The unnamed “Blind Man,” initially presented as the victim of a home invasion at the hands of three youths, turned out to be anything but: the tables were turned on the youngsters when the Blind Man turned out to be a total badass with some pretty horrifying secrets of his own. He’s got a young woman locked up his basement, the same young woman who got drunk and killed his daughter in a car wreck, and he’s trying to get her pregnant so that she can give him a new child and even the score. It’s totally twisted stuff, and I’m honestly still surprised that Alvarez got away with showing so much.
The Blind Man has been using a turkey baster to, well, impregnate the woman, and towards the end of the film he ends up with it shoved in his own mouth. Yes, the baster is of course filled with his… stuff… and the sight of it gurgling out of the man’s mouth is one I don’t think I’ll ever erase from my memory. And trust me, I totally want to. You’re a sick man, Fede Alvarez.
The folks over on the website Cake Wolf are clearly pretty sick and twisted too, and we say that because they just came up with a cocktail inspired by Don’t Breathe‘s most shocking scene. The cocktail is fittingly titled The Blind Man, and let’s just say that there’s no more disturbing way to watch the movie than by watching it while sipping this vodka and Irish cream-infused treat.
Yeah. No thanks, guys.
