In the Bedroom Reviews
If you like pick-me-ups, skip this
This movie excellently explores the psychology surrounding trauma. The acting is superb and the tone is perfect - if of course you don't mind heaviness. All in all it is one of the best movies in years.
(I wish they hadn't given it a misleading title though as it probably scares off the churchy crowd. It is not about sex!)
Love, Death and Genes: A Sociobiological Prespective
From the Sociobiological aspect the movie conveys brilliantly how the husband that doesn't has access to its genetic children will resort to extreme violence. It also shows how parents are excited about courtship abilities of their young son (since a "Don-Juan" son can pass a lot of their genes with various women in his lifetime) . Eventually it shows how the aging parents cannot bare the pain from losing their only son, the only mean by which they can pass their genes, so they resort to extreme violence, even if the violence is somewhat spiteful: "If my son cannot pass my genes, your son who killed my son for a good genetic reason wouldn't be able to either" - that's the subconscious motivation for murder "conveyed" by the genes.
