You come into it from your civilized life, they subject you to violent language until you're numb, they abuse you verbally and physically until all of your normal feelings and values are reduced to dust.

The violent events are offset with unexpected laughter, the contrast of moods becomes liberating, and calling attention to the real choices the characters make.
