Mental illness


I have to say i think Alice suffered from schizophrenia, when being told of by the lady in the beguinning she mensions it was not the first time this kind of thing happened a year ago apparently. Dr blackman is the phyciatrist and the astronaughts are the patients in her ill mind, split personality, amnesia, i think the evidence speaks for it self.

yeah!i think ur right about blackman being the head doctor or something. however i think the astronauts were police or employess of the asylum and not patients

what a great movie!

Alice explicitly states that the bits with Kinski are from a film she once saw, but left before the end because it freaked her out. The end is where she completely looses her sanity. In the Italian version, there is a final title card explaining that she has been confined to a mental health facility in Switzerland.

All the best people shave twice a day.
