Questions about the movie and plot - please answer

1. I tend to believe this was just an accident.

2. I don't recall such a scene with Eve and Gabriel in the shower. There was a scene of Eve making out in a shower, then the water was accidentally turned on, making her wet. This was a flashback from an earlier scene during her graduation party. And this was what supposed to have turned Eve onto her evil way, if I understand it correctly.

3. I believe that as stupid as it may sound, my interpretation is B. The nun must have possessed Eve. Becasue why will she kill the women who actually helped and supported her mom. Or for that matter, why would she kill her mom? And why will the killings coincide with the anniversary of the nun's death?

4. Eve blocking out her memories made her unaware of what she was doing.

5. Miguel was a priest who was the pastor of their boarding school. I think he impregnated Mary (that the nun discovered when she caught Mary with the pregnancy test), and the child was Eve. Miguel was the author of that love letter that the nun was force feeding into Mary.

6. I agree, I think they forgot about this one. They never explained the first death, the one that happened before the death of Mary. Maybe this happened before the nun possessed Eve?

7. I don't know. I actually watched this one in the moviehouse the other day.

8. This was the biggest leap of faith the director asked his audience to do! This conclusion came from out of nowhere, and from the most unlikely person. I think this was what made the ending so horrible.

What are your interpretations, if you care to discuss with me?

Da_letter_jay,
1) Gabriel died because he represented Miguel (who we find out was Eve's father). Who's another man that's supposed to have kept his vow of celibacy, but broke it.

Remember the re-curring theme of the movie is..you're a great person, but once you sin, you have to be purified.

2)The scene that shows the Nun's superimposed over Eve's is like the surfacing of her repressed anger. (Or if you want the resurgance of the Nun's vengeful spirit.)

3) I'll start with your B-I don't believe that Eve was the Nun reincarnated. But it's a good/valid theory. If you go with that line of thought, then that would make sense as to why Eve had that break when she got hit by the water.

A- Yes we find out that Eve was the 'killer' so to speak. But she wasn't doing it intentionally. I think we could safely theorize just from her name Eve..(and the movie of multiple personalities called "The 3 Faces of Eve") the writers were saying yes, she had multiple personalities. So she didn't consciously intend to kill anyone.

C-I like to believe that it was a combo of your C- because there's still a strong link to your C that the Nun possessed Eve to get retribution/revenge on all the girls who'd played a part on her death. and A-the temporary possession gave her the strong urge to kill them.

4- I don't think that it's that she necessarily blocked out her memories. It's that she was too young to realize what they actually meant. That and you can assume that her mother was probably a religious crackpot as well. And of course she found the diary and it just made her 'now adult' mind start piecing things together.

5- Miguel was the priest that had an affair with Eve's mother, and coincidentally is also her biological father. When he dumped her mom, her mom tried to commit suicide out of depression.

6-There's nothing saying that she was't there.

7- The region 1 DVD I rented was dubbed in English.

8-Joel figured out she was the nun because he was left alive, and someone had to wrap up the loose ends for the audience. lol.

No, I think he realized she was the killer, because of having all the information as the rest of them, and probably because we didn't see the scene where someone who was barely alive, told him it was her. And because the one girl (I think the one who got shake and baked) was so terrified of her, when she realized who Eve was.

That, and the fact that she was going to spear the nun to death, and when they found her, she was the only shish kabbob in the water.

Well, here is my two cents.

1. I think the nun killed Gabrielle.

2. I don't remember that scene.

3. Obviously, we are meant to believe that the nun and Eve are the same person. This is evidenced by Eve being the one killed in the end and the conclusion presented by Joel. Now, as far as the possession and all that, the director pushes the boundaries of credibility.

4. IDK

5. The father.

6. Throughout the movie the director attempts to explain every murder, even if the explanation is not plausible. He missed this part. No explanation is ever given and Joanna's death adds to this horribly written story.

7. probably.

8. The director had to explain what happened in order to minimize confusion. However, he didn't take the time to work out the kinks, which is why this story remains incredulous.
