I don't go on horror sites or listen to podcasts so thanks for shining light on this. Great to hear then. Always dug how visceral the kills were in this one and the way it brought back the brutal nature of the first entry.
Also, are we sure Kirby died here? I thought one of the tropes of horror is to never assume death until the character is actually shown dead. She was bleeding out but it was left so ambiguous. She had the makings of a great final girl.
Sad to hear about the BTS discord involving Wes and Kevin.
