End scene


Last night I caught this movie on TV, to be precise its last 30, maybe 35 minutes, so could somebody explain the meaning of the scene in the bathtub?

Maybe nightmare never ends for her...

That's my take as well... And one of the reasons I think the film is so affecting and so disturbing. For all of its faults, the movie looks beyond merely the protagonist's overcoming the antagonist, and the correction of the moral order, to the AFTERMATH of the Prowler's actions. Very nice, cinematic touch-- one usually reserved for the beginning of a sequel, where at least the surviving protagonist from the previous film still has the chance to overcome his/her fears/upset.

But not the Prowler!

so who are the dead people in the bathroom? did the guy hanging of the shower hang himself? or was he killed? and why did he reach out for her?

"how about... a royal flush!" *loren avedon kicks a cauldron of boiling water into the bad guys*

What do you mean, who were they? They were the prowler's first victim's of the night, people killed in a horrific manner soon after our heroine left for the evening. The pitchforked girl was probably dead, but the movie posits that the male hanging in the shower suffered severe cerebral trauma but suffered through the night hanging where the prowler left him, through the heroine's ups and downs and eventual victory, and reached out pathetically for help when she returned.

The prowler's murders had impact well past the development of the movie's story... Poetic, really, in its grisly, splatterpunk depiction of sexual predation and violence...
