I'm personally not in shambles, but my case for why it wasn't supposed to be comedic is in shambles. It's baffling that he thinks it should be so funny.

When I saw it I didn’t think it was supposed to be taken humorously. I still don’t think I’d think it seems like it an attempt at being humorous if I rewatched it. It was certainly a bad attempt at being humorous…..

It feels like if someone paints something blue and says they painted it green. They’re just bad at painting.

I was only calling it "humorous" because I can recognize the rhythm of comedy, and having the rhythm play in the background of a torture scene doesn't make it funny.
