It has been just over a month since Emerald Fennell’s triumphant movie, Saltburn, has graced our screens, and what a cultural imprint it has made. More importantly, the movie arrived promptly on Amazon Prime on 22 December, just in time for us to gather up the family, cosy up and… well, wince and cringe at multiple raunchy, lewd scenes in front of our parents. Honourable mentions go out to “I’m a vampire” and the grave scene, however the bathtub scene (if you know, you know) seems to be causing the most amount of hysteria on social media. We have taken this rather niche opportunity to round up some of the internet’s wildest reactions to Barry Keoghan “appreciating” Jacob Elordi’s post pleasure bath water.
Wonderland.
