Between Scott’s search for her and her reticence to break the rules, it’s clear Jen is our central heroine from the outset. We never really get to know her, or any of the characters, for that matter, beyond stock archetypes or tokenisms. The narrative favors telling over showing at every level, including the kills- many of which happen off-screen and only cut to grisly aftermath. There’s no rooting interest, making it that much harder to swallow the implausible and wacky character arcs that unfurl.
