Bodies Bodies Bodies is a 2022 black comedy horror film about wealthy young adults at a remote mansion during a hurricane. Their party game of "Bodies Bodies Bodies" turns deadly when real deaths spark paranoia, accusations, and chaos among the group. The story visibly uses a diverse cast and a central lesbian couple while filling dialogue with terms like gaslight, trigger, toxic, and woke, though it deploys them to mock the characters' petty behavior and self-centeredness rather than endorse those ideas.
