Scene that freaked you out the most...


What freaked me out most didn't actually scare me until after I realized that Donna wasn't blind at all. The scene where he goes to the motel after she told him that she left him something there - he sees her walking toward him and he hides in the shadows and she turns the corner but then for a split second turns and looks at him and then continues on her way. That part really got me after knowing she could see him that whole time. As a whole, the movie completely freaked me out!!

"I love talking about nothing. It's the only thing I know anything about" BOP

Actually what was the deal with that scene - why did she get so mad at him??

"The time has come to be gone. And tho our health we drank a thousand times, its time to ramble on"

reply

I thought she got mad because she was trying to find an excuse to get upset so she could tell him he couldn't come to the hospital to see Pete. And she was crazy.

Did nobody notice that in the sweater scene when she talks about the boy's being green, she says, "It will match his eyes"? If she was blind how would she know?

reply

Hahahaha, are you joking? How would she know her son's eye color if she was blind? :D

Actually that part freaked me out more before I found out she wasn't really blind. I thought "If she's blind, how does she know he's actually there?" And that look on her face was just creepy.

Ladies and gentlemen, the party is over. Have a nice apocalypse.

Her look at him at the end was real disturbing.

The scene in the diner when Gabriel see's Donna for the first time behind the frosted glass, she turns her head slowly and looks at him.

reply

The cop tazers Gabe and tells him to leave the boy alone.




Smoke me a kipper. I’ll be back for breakfast

I noticed she wasn't blind about half way into the movie.

There is a brief fight between Donna and Gabriel in her basement and - if you look carefully - you can see a quick close-up of the woman wearing a wristwatch. Not a very popular accessory among blind people.

The scene at the diner towards the end has stuck with me ("Have you ever actually seen Pete?")
and the fight on the road ("He's all I have!!")
