i'm confused...

it's almost impossible to be confused about this movie really... but:

1) when the electricity goes out, why does the one wall light in that Red room (where they lock themselves into) stay on and then the chick goes and plugs another light into an outlet on that wall? is only THAT wall on a separate breaker or something? it just made me laugh but its weird too cuz its really obvious..

2) WHAT HAPPENS TO PARIS' BOYFRIEND? Ok, so he gets possessed, kills paris, disappears. the kid he first knocked out in the library wakes up and then the possessed boyfriend comes in and he gets killed i guess? because the other guy then gets possessed... BUT they didnt say anything about him dying they just showed him on the ground with the other guy on top of him & never showed him being killed (i dont think?) or said he was dead and no one seemed to say anything about him dying.

3) when the chick and pete decide to trap damien in the bathroom, they bring weapons...which is exactly what they just said they DONT want to do. they DONT want to kill him because then THEY get possessed. the golf club seemed ok bc they could just knock him out and he wouldnt die, but a knife?

just pointing this stuff out cuz it bothered me and i really have nothing else to do right now. i dont know if this movie is worth this much contemplation.. lol.. but if anyone does have a reply then please post it :) thanks

I'm also confused.
After Pete returns from the basement without Damien, only with his glasses, they said that Damien wouldn't be able to see enough without his glasses to leave the basement. But how could Murray see anything without his EYES?

Here's another one: Who is Paul? They list a guy as Paul but I can't find one in the movie!

That's exactly what I was thinking, at first. But then I remembered that all the "possessed" people were missing their eyes, therefore the ghost/possessed-person did not have to rely on their regular eyes, they used......uh.... ghost power vision.... :P

many houses have different fuses for different rooms of course, and maybe in that one, that big room had 2 fuses itself. so when dude pulled the fuses, the one he kept in must been for the other side the room. as for the weapons, im guessing they had those just in case they had to use them, as a last resort.

Spoiler...

Good question. Also there were four women in the beginning. But towards the middle one of them is never mentioned again. So all there's left of the girls is paris, girl bleeding on the couch, and girl who kills herself at the end. Whatever happened to the girl who was wearing pink and had a cross necklace? You'll also see she has a white overcoat in the beginning. Paris and her were supposedly best friends. WHERE DID SHE GO??? What happened to Emma!

she was stabbed and killed by tom just b4 tim killed him

number two's answer is this:

tim killed him, and had the knife stuck in his chest. since tim killed him, tim was then the killer. so tim killed paris's boyfriend. x]

im confused about 1 and three too. xP overall this movie was pretty good so.

SPOILER!

Here's what confuses me: in the end, the lone survivor says that his ancestor wouldn't have killed him, anyway, since he's Scottish and therefore couldn't be blamed for the actions that were taken by the English to steal his (the ancestor's) land and tear out his eyes, right?

Then why did the spirit kill Paris? Surely, she wasn't playing a British character, was she? There didn't seem to be any attempt to mimic the accent. (Did I simply miss an important character point in the beginning? I wasn't paying too much attention.)

If a Scot was given an "immunity card" simply due to his place of birth, why couldn't an American be afforded the same courtesy? (Okay, that's more thought than the flick deserves, but I had some fun with it.) Steve V.
