The subject of angry women loomed over the Cult season that started so promisingly, yet the FX series “returned to its favorite tricks, eschewing socio-cultural analysis for shock and gore,” says Sophie Gilbert. She adds: “In the series, it seems, no fertile woman can go un-impregnated, whether by a ghost in a black rubber fetish suit, or by a man being simultaneously penetrated by her brother. Mothers inevitably wreak horrific damage on the vulnerable psyches of their children. And rape is so repetitive a plot device on the show as to have become completely meaningless. Given such depictions, and their prevalence across culture, is it any surprise women are so mad?”
