"Love Lies Bleeding," director Rose Glass' second feature film through A24 after the release of the feminist body horror epic "Saint Maud" in 2019, is a violently queer thriller that heartbreakingly, terrifyingly and hornily shows the many ways people can justify bad behavior because of love. It also provides a great example of how so much of life's easily doled out pandemonium could be better navigated or avoided altogether by being more like a cat via minding one's own business and adapting that perfect level of low-key that allows you to stay out of the mess while still getting your needs met.
