Great narration, great title (a good example of a title that makes you want to hear the story).
I'm not a huge fan of revenge stories in general. Besides Inigo Montoya's anyway. So it had an uphill battle for me to like it to begin with.
IMO the title overpromised. I thought it was going to be an alt reality twisted version of Girls Gone Wild, where instead of young women taking their tops off, it would be young women having their minds hollowed out by a visit from the Elder Gods or some such thing. A revelation of systematic drugging of Girls Gone Wild is horrible enough, but it still didn't really seem to match the title.
The story did a reasonably good job of revealing the backstory. But nothing much happened in the present. The protagonist, in particular, never did anything in the now-story OR the backstory, except leave his classified government research keys in a jar on the counter like a dumbass. He sat passively while his roommate ruined a lot of people's lives. Then he sat passively while his own girlfriend's life is ruined. And then when he gets a new video that dredges all that up, he again does not affect anything, his girlfriend is even the one to run the video. Everything in the story had already happened and so there was a big lack of tension for me. There was the question of what was on the video, but I figured it was either revenge, or the videomaker sending a taunt.
What bothered me more than anything was the act of drugging the girls to fulfill his own revenge fantasy. Their lives have been ruined by a widely witnessed loss of control, and somehow this wider loss of control is supposed to make everything better? The story itself said that this drug does not force you to do what you don't want to do, it removes your consideration of your consequences. That means that whatever you do, is something that you wanted to do, something that's a part of you that you're not comfortable seeing in the open. Imagine if one of these girls catches a glimpse of this video, probably when it's been leaked to the press, see a video of herself cutting a man's limbs off with a chainsaw, that would be something from which she might never mentally recover. It's one thing to imagine revenge on a person, another thing entirely to see what kind of atrocities you are actually capable of, what kind of messed up psychosis you have lurking behind the mask of society. Imagining that was certainly very good horror, but I got the impression that wasn't the reaction I was supposed to get from that (or it probably would've been center stage, a story told by one of the girls as SHE came across her video and had to try to cope with seeing that). I got the impression instead that I was supposed to approve of the contents of the video without thinking about it too much.
