Noa Turns The Tables On Steve Using His Own Tactics
As the Fresh ending explained, Steve uses his good looks and wit to seduce women, who he plans to later sell to high-end clients as meat.After figuring out that Steve likes her, Noa turns up the charm and convinces him that she wants to be with him, despite the fact that he's taken her prisoner to sell her body for meat. In the movie, Stan's charming serial killer takes her on a special "date" and shows her the wall of "trophies" that he keeps from his victims — among which is Mollie's cell p...
The Killer In Fresh Finds Women Without Strong Family Ties
As the Fresh ending explained, when Steve first meets Noa, she is at the grocery store and standing under a sign that reads "fresh meats." Although this is just a tongue-in-cheek nod to his intentions — finding fresh meat at the grocery store — Noa is exactly the type of person that Steve targets, a method similar to Sweeney Todd, who turns his victims into meat pies. On their first date, she tells him that she doesn't have any family because her dad passed away, and she is estranged from her...
Ann Is A Classic Case Of Stockholm Syndrome
The Fresh ending explained that Steve's wife Ann has a missing leg when Mollie goes to their house in her search for Noa. Ann is revealed to be helping Steve with his cannibalistic efforts, but also appears to have been a victim of his at one time.In the magazines that Steve gives to Noa while holding her prisoner, there's a note from a previous victim that suggests that giving her the magazines means he likes her. Although there's no evidence that the note was left by Ann, the note itself se...
Steve Is Part Of A Network Of Male Cannibals
As the Fresh ending explained, Steve sells his human meat to wealthy clients who pay big bucks to eat his "exotic" product. At the mid-credits, there is a quick glimpse of some of those clients. The men are seated around a table with a pile of bloody human meat at the center. Some are dressed in fancy suits while others are nude, representing how depraved these men actually are. While it's more of an image than a scene, it helps to show that Steve is just one part of a much larger problem. Th...
The 2022 Horror Movie's Finale Drives Home Its Themes Of The Perils Of Online Dating
As the Fresh ending explained, Fresh is a social satire in line with the social commentary of 21st-century horror movies. At its core, it is a critique of the modern dating scene, especially the dangers involved in dating for young, single women.There are many good men out there, but also plenty of dangers and dates that potentially wish to do harm. It also aptly skewers the way men in power disregard the bodily autonomy of women and feel entitled to control women's bodies. But on a more hope...
Noa's Decisions Are The True Genius Behind The Fresh Ending
The Fresh ending explained its overarching meaning clearly, but that's not the only reason it landed. Daisy Edgar-Jones in Fresh is one of the best final girls in a while, who smartly figures out that she and Steve's victims must band together to survive. Fresh is unique as an elevated, yet gory, horror movie, as it artfully plays out its own themes in a digestible way. The final climax crescendos into some satisfying retribution as Noa is able to escape, and Chad's text is a smart way of say...
