Theories on the Beginning Scene?


Who dares to try and make sense of the opening shots of the man trying to escape the asylum and how it has anything to do with the rest of the film? Was it a dream? Or was it just found footage spliced in to fill some time, perhaps to give us the impression this film had something more sinister afoot?

I had thought it was Allan, the main character ... but I watched it over three nights so I guess I was wrong. I was really disturbed that it ends and no one seems to notice or care that he tortured and killed all those other Red Heads !!

I think Alan was institutionalized at some point in the past and that was just a flashback.

As for the redheads, I think Alan was deemed not criminally responsible for their deaths since he was bonkers at the time. Insanity plea.
