Viewers of the newest hit horror film Weapons have made a major realisation about one of the movie’s bizarre viral moments.
Weapons follows a mystery in which all but one member of a class of third graders get up at 2:17 one night and run off into the night.
Directed by Barbarian writer-director Zach Cregger, the film debuted with a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and still sits at a very impressive 95%. The horror has also had one of the biggest openings of the year, grossing a massive $42,500,000 domestically and $70,000,000 globally.
Starring Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, Benedict Wong, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, and Amy Madigan, the film’s star-studded cast has been getting plaudits across the board.
One particularly bizarre scene in the film, however, has received a great deal of viral attention online
A scene involving Benedict Wong has had a great deal of attention online (Warner Bros.)
Benedict Wong plays Marcus Miller, the school’s principal who supports Garner’s Justine Gandy throughout the film.
Roughly halfway through, we are shown an insight into his domestic life, shopping with his husband before the pair sit down with a snack platter to watch some TV.
On the platter for two people are some crisps, carrots and dip, some cookies and, of course, seven hot dogs.
This moment has led to several people online discussing the unacknowledged moment – but it has a hidden, tragic meaning which points to the story which inspired the movie.
Film Critic Courtney Howard posted on X saying: “The seven hot dogs thing in Weapons is a tribute to Trevor Moore.”
