The name “Karen” has become shorthand for entitled white women with racist inclinations (much to the disdain, no doubt, of many decent women). Karen is also the name of a new social horror movie about a particularly terrifying neighbor. Deadline recently reported that 13 Films is handling sales for the film for the Cannes virtual market.
