Polar opposite of most traditional super hero story lines. The anti-hero = alien posing as an adopted bratty teenager who wreaked havoc, on his family and family’s friends, in a small town. In the end, the world was left with this alien/teen who uncontrollably ravaged society with his brutal, vicious, relentless, heinous, murderous, violent acts. The cookie and fact less reporter scenes were cynical, satirical touches to the ending.
Thought provoking = Spoke to real world issues such infertility; parenting- nature vs nature; mental health; consequences of inaction; etc.
