Turn on
What does "turn on" mean in the text below?
(a review of "Antichrist")
"A grieving middle-class couple credited only as 'He' and 'She' retreat to 'Eden', their isolated forest cabin to recover from the death of their only son. 'He' is a controlling therapist, who tries to pull Her out of suicidal depression. As the couple TURN ON each other out in the dark woods (and increasingly with the aid of rusty tools), Nature is stirring."
Thanks.
