A reporter claims that a character's mother was raped by the killer; this turns out to be untrue. Still, the rape is referred to frequently and even used by the main character's boyfriend as a way to try to pressure her into sex (after she clearly expressed not being interested). He touches her beyond agreed boundaries and berates her for not consenting. He finally gains her 'consent' via lies and elaborate deception. Near the end of the film the second killer tells the final girl "I've always had a thing for you sid" while trying to kill her.
