Saltburn superfan, 28, gets Barry Keoghan’s infamous grave scene TATTOOED on her leg – claiming she found explicit moment ‘poetic and beautiful’ despite critics insisting she will ‘regret it so bad’
A Saltburn superfan has had the film’s now infamous ‘grave scene’ tattooed on her leg – despite critics claiming she will ‘regret it forever’.
Cheyenne Burris saw the psychological thriller starring Barry Keoghan five times in theaters when the film was released last November.
The 28-year-old content creator, who is originally from California but now lives in Brighton, Britain, was particularly impressed by one scene in the film, which has polarized fans around the world.
Cheyenne described the cemetery clip as “beautiful and poetic,” which led to her contacting her tattoo artist boyfriend to permanently ink the scene on her thigh.

Saltburn focuses on Oxford University student Oliver, played by Keoghan, who becomes fixated on a popular, aristocratic fellow student Felix, played by Jacob Elordi, who later invites him to spend the summer at his eccentric family’s estate.
The graveyard scene, which appears towards the end of the film, shocked viewers as protagonist Oliver visited a freshly dug grave.
He lies sobbing on the bare earth, before undressing and performing a sex act in the ground.
Cheyenne said: “I loved Saltburn. It’s not the best movie I’ve ever seen, but it’s also fantastic.
‘It’s just an itch in my brain. Normally this kind of dark media isn’t done very well.
‘This is funny and dark and so beautiful and well photographed. It’s the complete package for my brain.
‘One of my best friends is a tattoo artist and as soon as we got out of the cinema we thought: let’s get a tattoo.’
“So my friend Helena Gifford started sketching some ideas of the cemetery scene for a tattoo.”

She continued, “Her style is incredible. I asked to draw it without pants because I thought it was more realistic.
“I would always do the grave scene. I’m a weird goth anyway, so the grave scene felt the most fitting.
‘I thought the scene was so beautiful, it’s very poetic.
‘It’s longing, it’s desperation. If someone were that obsessed with me, then that’s a goal in my life.
‘I just thought it was very romantic in a dark, Victorian way.
‘For me it’s not about Barry Keoghan as an actor; it’s about the scene and how it’s presented.
“We purposely left the face a little ambiguous on the tattoo so it can be whoever you want it to be.”

The artwork divided opinion online, with some calling it “iconic” while others suggested that immortalizing such a scene should be “illegal”, although Cheyenne laughed off the “trolls”.
Commenting on the furore surrounding her new body ink, Cheyenne said: “It’s a weird, passionate and disturbing tattoo.
‘I just respond to the trolls with humor. It really doesn’t affect me. Everyone around me loves it.
“I hope Barry Keoghan and Jacob Elordi would enjoy it if they saw it. I hope they don’t feel offended!’
