incest scene (minor spoiler)


Am I the only one who noticed the incest scene thrown in? The mother said that guy with the surfer mustache was her brother and then she (the demon that looked like her) starts seducing him in the shower before killing him. Kind of crazy for an '80s movie.... Maybe they were hoping we would forget their relation!

reply

Yeah, I didn't quite get that scene either. You think the demon would try to trick him by being somebody else but his sister.

reply

Yeah, that scene kinda freaked me out so i figured, maybe shes his sister in law, her husbands brother.

reply

And the brother doesn't say a word. If my sibling walked into the bathroom while I'm in there NAKED I sure as hell would ask him what he thought he was doing.
But I guess that's what the script said - look mildly shocked and go with it....

reply

Well he did have that porn-stache so maybe he didn't mind so much.

ROTFL. EXACTLY!

The Diabolical love that kinda *beep* and Devils are immensely powerful,it probably looked into the Brothers past and noticed that he had a secret boner for his Sister back when they were young teenagers.By using this method,the Demon scored twice....he corrupted the man's soul and spilled blood in one fell swoop.Like I said,this is the kinda weird *beep* the Infernal get off on.

reply

I'm thinking he's a brother-in law to her. That's the only explanation for him not asking why she's in the shower with him without being weird.

Wow i never even thought about it but she did say that was her brother. Incest kills folks!

reply

It's clear, at that moment, we're meant to believe he was attracted to his sister.
It just seems like the idea comes from left field because that aspect of the character was never revealed until that point in time.
Call it bad writing or perhaps it was just there to surprise the audience.
