The end..uhhh...what the? What happened and how?


Spoilers...like it matters...

Ok..Bella gets squashed by the bolder then attacked by the octopus???! How is that possible? We see the rock more or less mash him flat so..how in the wide world of sports did he wind up in the lake/ swamp/ whatever that the octopus was in?

I must have watched that sequence twenty times trying to figure it out. It's as if there's a chunk of film missing between scenes as there is no cohesive connection between the two whatsoever.

Any ideas?

lol, It's Ed Wood, it ain't supposed to make sense. Just enjoy it.

I think we're supposed to understand that the boulder somehow rolled or otherwise knocked him into the lake where the octopus was. That's the best I've got, anyway.

It's awesome. I recall watching this film with a friend of mine and he sat through most of it without laughing too much, even through all of the bizarre details mentioned about the climax. But when the Inspector says the final line of the film "He tampered in God's domain" that was it. My friend cracked up laughing for about 10 minutes. That is the single biggest WTF final line in history.

What happened was this. He was transformed into an atomic superman with his experiment, thus the large balloon, urm, boulder alone would not be able to kill him. The boulder knocked him into the pond, um, I mean, lake. Then the stock footage, um, octopus surfaced and tried to kill him. The rubber prop, I mean, octopus would not succeed in killing him in the end since he was super human. So he was killed when he was struck by lightning and blew up, releasing the atomic energy and vaporizing the city in an atomic explosion... Wait, I mean vaporizing the pond, I MEAN LAKE. 
