‘Strange Darling’ Director J.T. Mollner Explains Those Shocking Twists, Toying With the Audience and That Wild Ending


J.T. Mollner is earning raves for his new thriller "Strange Darling," which is filled with twists and a dramatic ending that he breaks down.

Luckily, Mollner wrote a sexy and shocking script for “Strange Darling,” where the strength lies in manipulating stereotypes audiences have seen in scores of movies before. As the pair debate whether or not to head from his truck into a cheap hotel room for some late-night fun, the camera passes over the hidden barrel of a literal Chekhov’s gun. Drop it does, as it’s revealed that The Lady is actually the serial killer, but before she can kill The Demon, he lets off a shot from his gun, and after both parties stagger around losing blood, he begins to chase her down for retribution.
