“I think the psychological warfare that you have to engage in to do that game is so fun,” says star Myha’la Herrold.
The second round? The lights come on and everyone tries to deduce which player is the killer (or throw off the scent by blaming an innocent person in the most mean-spirited and personal of ways). The lights then go out and the killer must find and tap someone on the shoulder to commit their foulest of deeds. Indeed, in the film, “Bodies Bodies Bodies” consists of two phases: the first begins with slapping your friend to the right as hard as you can because why not? It then concludes with each player drawing a card which says whether they’re an innocent victim… or the killer. “It’s really masochistic and becomes just inherently dark, because you’re supposed to have fun yelling and accusing your friends of false crimes that are not real.” “The fun of the game is bullying your friends,” actor Chase Sui Wonders says with a faint smile now. It also proved to be a hell of an icebreaker for the young Gen-Z actors who would soon be asked to embody the worst case scenario of such a festivity occurring on a dark and stormy night. In other words, “the game” is the perfect setting for an A24 horror-comedy. In the new film, they’ve been distilled into a veritable car wreck of bad decisions. “Bodies Bodies Bodies” is technically a fictional activity-an intentionally potent blend of all those toxic college drinking games you might’ve played back in the day (or still do). The cast of Bodies Bodies Bodies was encouraged to play “the game” on one of their first nights together.
