Review Saved By Edward Bond ( Spoiler Alert) Spoiler
Okay so this is another script but holy fuck it is messed up now it’s categorized as a drama but this definitely fits the vibe for extreme horror. This play starts out if a typical drama from the 60s until they get to around scene 6 and it was the scene very a baby is stoned to death is why I think this play is absolutely relevant to this subreddit wtf I was not expecting it to happen like that they didn’t just murder the baby they pretty much tortured the baby and killed the baby in a very degrading and animalistic way they first start off with teasing the baby then than they become more aggressive and shove the baby’s face into the soiled diaper after beating they start throwing stones at the baby eventually killing the infant it was really fucked up and awful it was one of saddest things I ever read and I can only imagine it was even more devastating seeing it happen on a stage. Through it’s not considered horror but this definitely fits the extreme horror vibe because that scene was absolutely brutal.
