Drew Hancock ’s sci - fi horror comedy movie Companion is smart , funny , and contains a number of in particular brutal and oftentimes shocking deaths .
To Josh , Sergey merit to die and have his money stolen because he sure as shooting did a lot of horrible things as a member of the gang , but Kat was n’t completely honest with him when they come up with the design to murder him .

The Truth About Sergey Makes Josh & Kat’s Plan In Companion Even Darker
Sergey Still Wasn’t A Good Person, Though
In the above - mentioned scene where Kat freak out out and Josh mentions Sergey deserve it for being a mobster , Kat say that he was a ugly person , a painful boyfriend , an even worse husband , and a woman hater , but not a mobster . Sergey really made his circumstances sell sodand Josh just assumed he was involved with the mob , but Kat never correct him . Surely , not being a gangster does n’t make Sergey a good someone , as he still was everything Kat say and more ( he tried to ill-treat Iris , leading to his death ) , but his hazard did n’t materialize through illegal businesses .
Companion set up the in darkness distorted but deep evacuant close to its film in the first transactions of the movie , but that does n’t make it less shocking .
Josh did n’t realize that Sergey was n’t as unsafe as Kat made him seem ( but he still was , to a stage ) , butknowing the truth about Sergey brings out Josh ’s own wickedness . Josh victimizes himself in front of Kat and essay to stop her from leaving , using Patrick to do so , who ends up killing her .
