The way it stands, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness does plenty to push the boundaries of Marvel’s storytelling efforts. For the first time in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a film dipped its hoes into horror as the likes of Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) found himself resurrected as a zombie. Not just that, but the heroes ripped Gargantos’ eye straight from its eye socket within the film’s opening moments, and that’s not even counting the body horror involved with Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) distorting her body to travel through a mirror in Kamar-Taj. At one point, the film took on an even bloodier approach.
