(SPOILERS) Astute Observation

Below is a post previously posted (by lwa 9921602-1) but it's buried, so it's difficult to find. It's a pretty significant observation about the ending.

I've been into Psychomania for 30 years and such has never occurred to me.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

No, they (the bikers) turn into stonehenge like rock formations.

What most people don't get is that the bikers(supposedly like the seven witches which are the other stonehenge formations in the film) can never die.

Tom himself says, "You can only die once. After that, no one and nothing can kill you."

They did not die but were encased in the stone.

Forever alive, able to hear and fathom the world around them, but blind and unable to move.

That is why everyone was so scared of the "Seven Witches". They too had broken a pact of immortality and were able to discern events around them. Although powerless, the thought they were still cognizant and evil frightened everyone.

Far out, eh?

It got me thinking about the following Spinal Tap lyric from the song Stonehenge:

"Hewn into the living rock of Stonehenge"

I don't know much about Stonehenge, but it seems that there may be legends of the big ol' rocks previously being witches.

Possible inspiration for the bikers being turned into stone?

Cheers...
