I got through it by thinking it’s a whole separate thing, unrelated to prior movies.

I also knew who Jimmy Savile was, which makes the Super Brit tracksuit wearers all the weirder. Why pick that pedophile to style your horror movie crew. I can see a mile out that the Brit crew will turn baddie in the next movie but unless they’re pedo bad and treated by the movie accordingly, I dislike it. It would be like physically styling them after Hitler while ignoring the genocide side.

The virus started before the allegations came to light so it could go either way
I was thinking of the movie writers’ decision to style them that way. They knew about the allegations. So they decided to style characters after a known pedo and then … we’ll see if they do anything with that in the sequel but so far, feels weird.
Yep and I get that. I’m not sure of it myself
I didn’t connect the tracksuits with Jimmy Saville for one second for what it’s worth. They were a huge craze in the UK and Ireland in the 90s.
