10 Intense Recent Movie Scenes You Couldn't Watch
3. S**t-Finger Revealed - Spiderhead
Spiderhead is one of the year's biggest missed opportunities so far - a sci-fi thriller with a killer concept and great cast, yet one that ultimately fell short of its promise and basically settled for being not-bad.
The entire movie is a bit of a tonal car crash, honestly, struggling to reconcile its more outrageous comedy moments with its inherently dark subject matter.
This is never felt more than during a running gag throughout the film where an unknown person is smearing feces over the walls of the titular compound, earning them the nickname "S**t Finger."
At film's end, then, we finally learn the truth in the most revolting way possible, when while attempting to escape the facility, heroes Jeff (Miles Teller) and Lizzy (Jurnee Smollett) are attacked by a fellow inmate, Sarah (Angie Milliken), whose hand is covered in fecal matter.
Sarah, clearly, is S**t Finger, and promptly attempts to rub her poo-encrusted hand all over Jeff's face as he tries to flee.
She's thankfully unsuccessful, but the scene is ultimately more nauseatingly offputting than funny, which surely wasn't the intent. Nobody asked for this.
