Hi I just got done watching (most of) this movie and I was hoping someone could tell me what takes place....
POSSIBLE SPOILERS!!!!
during the conversation with the two men? My disc was bad (greencine copy) so I missed what they were saying. I have a feeling that part was the big reveal. Also did anything happen after they were talking? Thanks in advance for anyones help!
Anyway the two men are going over the entire case and say that there really wasn't any yuki, and that the main character (wheelchair dude) was her other siamese twin, and for the operation he had to kill yuki. When his mind wouldn't let go of yuki, he became scitzophrenic(sp?), and began acting out yuki's role himself. They figured this because the wheelchair dude's wounds were half self inflicted. At the end of the conversation they say that the wheelchair dude would have to spend his entire life trying to figure out what happened.Lets see thats 4 times I said yuki in two sentences.Yuki being the "granddaughter" of chiyo (the old woman), for those of you like me who suck at remembering japanese names.
Yuki isn't the most difficult Japanese name to remember really, it means "snow". As in the old ghost story "Yuki-onna" i.e. "The Snow Woman", which was one part of the episode film KWAIDAN.
This ending really sucked. The whole schizophrenic thing seemed tacked on. The movie was fine until they blamed it all on his mental health. Otherwise it was a great little low-budget movie which I would highly recommend as a comedy more than anything. Watching him get tortured was hilarious, as well as guilt-inducing for thinking it so hilarious... mainly due to the actors, both Yuki and Chiyo and their wonderful creepiness, and the main character who did such a great job of expressing over-the-top terror.
Agree. Those schizo-plot twists are so overused and ruins the climax of the entire film. There are some few exeptions where those kind of plot twists work, but I wont name any titles cause of spoilers. Anyway, they should have made this into just pure terror and made another ending than those schizo-things...
What made it worse was that the dude who was in the wheelchair's family was talking about the guests, who were figments of his tortured mind. Give me a break.
