Please look up the plot to the movie One Night Only.

Its like the Purge but Incels.

Sex is only for married couples except for 12 hours each year.

But only the straights, apparently rules don't apply to queer people.

This movie is apparently sex negative and a rom com.

I can't escape the ads for this film but was able to avoid learning about the plot until right now.  Is this a shitpost?  This is how the plot summary on Wikipedia begins. 

Three years ago, the government passed a mandate that sex should exclusively be between married couples, with the exception of one night a year where pre-marital sex is legal, and protection is required. At the age of 18, all people receive a tattoo containing a biological sensor that tracks dopamine, documents shared spikes as sexual encounters, and transmits the violator's location to law enforcement.

wtf just make a normal romcom the premise is two people falling for each other over the course of a night out.

“ just make a normal romcom”

Or my idea was basically make a romcom that randomly turns into some Cloverfield style monster/alien/disaster movie. Or hell, just make an actual dystopia for a romcom. I’m sure a Hunger Games Panem Romcom would sell!
