Fresh Ending Explained (In Detail)
Warning! Spoilers ahead for Fresh.
Fresh is a horror-comedy for the online dating age, though its ending may take some explaining. Sebastian Stan stars as Steve, the seemingly charming new boyfriend of Noa, a chronically single young woman played by Daisy Edgar-Jones. Packed with sex, lies, and cannibalism, Fresh is a horror movie masquerading as a rom-com about the horrors of dating as a young woman in today’s world. Directed by Mimi Cave and produced by satirical filmmaker Adam McKay, Fresh is like a feminist version of Get Out with aSweeney Todd twist. Instead of stealing their bodies Invasion of the Body Snatchers-style in Fresh, Sebastian Stan’s Steve runs a business where he sells their bodies for meat, piece by piece.
Noa, like many young women, is disillusioned by the online dating process. When viewers first see her, she is on a dud of a date with a guy that she met on a dating app, who talks down to the waiter, insults her clothes, and even steals the food that he made her pay for herself. She complains to her best friend Mollie (Jonica T. Gibbs) about her lack of success with dating, and Mollie tells her to adopt a "f*ck it" attitude. Soon after, Daisy Edgar-Jones' character meets Sebastian Stan's Steve at the grocery store, and he seems nice and charming so she agrees to give her phone number to him. They hit it off immediately and start dating, but after she agrees to go on an impromptu trip with him (against the better judgment of Mollie), she quickly learns that he is a human butcher and that he plans to put her on the menu.
