20 Most WTF Movie Moments Of 2022

8. The Talking Fetus - Blonde

Triangle of Sadness
Netflix

Andrew Dominik's Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde must surely be the most polarising film of the entire year, some lauding it for its bold, unconventional presentation and others dismissing it as arty-farty nonsense.

By far the most controversial sequence in the film involves Marilyn's (Ana de Armas) unborn CGI fetus speaking to her from within the womb, judging her for having a previous abortion and asking if she'll be doing the same thing this time around.

Some felt that the scene was tinged, perhaps inadvertently, with pro-life, anti-abortion sentiment, while others felt it trivialised abortion, and some simply saw it as a strange, goofy filmmaking choice.

It certainly has its defenders, too, with some lauding Dominik for coming up with something so willfully provocative. Wherever you land on it, it's without a doubt one of the oddest, most bewildering movie scenes of the year, and something nobody will soon forget.
