Will she go to jail?


Following the horriic 'surgey'will her mother call the police-or hide the bodies?

reply

No way. She will go to a mental facility. It's pretty obvious.

reply

Yes, seems clear that Pauline is destined for a life in an insane asylum, specifically an institution for the criminally insane.

reply

Jail, then a mental hospital. She doesn't understand the difference between fantasy and reality and is a mortal danger to those around her as a result.

I don't see mom hiding the bodies. It would be a complete turnaround for her to hide the murder of her favorite daughter to save the (murdering) one she wanted nothing to do with in the first place.

What a lovely way to burn...

reply

Lmfao, hahaha. She really did Pawn every bit of responsibility off on that man. That was a hilarious answer

I NEVER doubted they'd call the police- however i don't believe she'd go to jail, i think she'd be in a psychiatric hospital or something similar

Yeah, I never saw anything even remotely in the Mother's character that she'd cover up a crime of this magnitude.

The horrific scream at the end (Wow, what a performance by Traci Lords) was not an indication she'd lost her mind. Everything else maybe, but she was not suddenly criminally insane like her daughter.

I thought she was eventually found crimally insane and unfit to stand trial. Although, I do believe it was the parents' fault that she ended up the way she did. Perhaps if her mom encouraged her to persue medicine and stopped being a btch to her throughout the movie, she wouldn't have ended up the way she did. It was also the father's fault, because he never spoke up for himself or the kids at all throughout the movie. In addition, if the mom had her seeing a proper therepist instead of that priest (played by an all around awesome John Waters), she could've learned how to control her fantasy/reality episodes. If the students (especially that nasty girl across the street) didn't treat her like total garbage.... I guess my point is that she was the victim of unfair ccircumstances and that lead to her snapping eventually, leading to the devastating, yet darkly comical, finale.

Pauline will be treated at a mental hospital. but the mom and dad helped make her into a psycho by not listening. Pauline even said she needed a real siciatrist


Rob Zombie is on of the greatest directors today

I'm fairly sure the mother WILL call the police - Grace was her beloved daughter, and she says several times that she has trouble loving Pauline. Regardless of her emotions (now only having one daughter, knowing that she could have stopped all this if she had tried to help Pauline when Pauline was all but begging for help), her mother is never shown as the type who would cover it up or make excuses for Pauline to get her out of trouble.

At first, I got the impression that the mother might kill Pauline and I was slightly disappointed that didn't happen, to show the extreme preference the mother has for Grace.

In any case, Pauline will not go to jail. She will likely be locked in a mental institution because she is very clearly disturbed.

reply

unfortunately with the state of the prison system she probably would have just been sent to prison a large percentage of prisoners are mentally unstable but they never get any type of treatment.
