YMMV / Bacurau

• Alternate Character Interpretation: When many of the locals take pictures of the dead outsiders, is it a form of Victory Gloating or a pragmatic way to provide proof of what happened after they have already witnessed attempts to Un-person their whole town as a prelude to the murder tourists arriving?
• Complete Monster: Mayor Tony Jr. is a sleazy Corrupt Politician with connections to a group of foreign psychopaths interested in Hunting the Most Dangerous Game, selling out the titular small town of Bacurau to be their playground, including the innocent children. Only caring for his reelection, Tony is despised by everyone in Bacurau for his incompetence and immorality, not only supplying Bacurau with expired food and harmful medications, but also forcing a young prostitute to be his "payment". Abandoning the town after the killers arrive and granting them access to massacre its people, Tony cowardly tries to deny involvement instead of confessing to have made a deal with them.
• Memetic Mutation:
  • Maria: "Quem nasce em Bacurau é o quê?" ("People born in Bacurau are what?") Horácio: "Gente" ("People").
  • For a while in Brazil, the sentence "Have you seen Bacurau?" became shorthand for hipsters, in the same way of "Have you heard of Bitcoin?" a few years prior.
• Moral Event Horizon: The hunters crossed when they killed an entire family in a farm. The bikers crossed it, too, when they killed Flavio and Maciel. Joshua crosses it when he shot a child dead.
• Signature Scene: One of the hunters exploring the village museum and seeing the empty gun wall gets talked about quite a lot.
