With Bodies Bodies Bodies officially available for home entertainment today, Screen Rant is pleased to present an exclusive behind-the-scenes clip featuring star Maria Bakalova. First making a name for herself in 2020's Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, Bakalova proved her range by dipping her toe into horror alongside Amandla Stenberg, though the new A24 film still retains great doses of culturally relevant humor.
Directed by Halina Reijn and written by Sarah DeLappe (with a story by Kristen Roupenian), Bodies Bodies Bodies provides both slasher thrills and social commentary that doesn't beat its audience over the head. Also starring Pete Davidson, Myha’la Herrold, Chase Sui Wonders, Rachel Sennott, and Greg, the horror film explores how its Gen Z protagonists have disconnected from each other despite being so close. Whether society or the individual is to blame, one thing is for certain: it creates a bloody mess.
Screen Rant's exclusive behind-the-scenes clip from Bodies Bodies Bodies opens with actress Maria Bakalova explaining how today's young adults have had to adjust to the fast-paced time period in which they live. Everything moves at the speed of light for Gen Z thanks to the impact of social media, even when it comes to emotions and relationships. As director Halina Reijn explains, even she is affected by today's technology and social media, despite being from a different generation. While there may be a large communication gap between each generation, they are each being corrupted in similar ways due to the external pressures of society.
