A plea for someone to answer my questions--

It should obviously go without saying that this thread will be full of spoilers.. I mean I've clearly stated that I've seen the movie, in its entirety, and I'm damn near begging, at this point, for someone to please let me in on the Danish dialogue..

Yes, I do fully understand that while the dialogue will not answer all the very many questions that I long to have answered about exactly what was happening..and that there is a monstrous dose of ambiguity, regardless of knowing the dialogue.. but, please, I'm literally begging for someone to break it down as much as possible, because while I very much loved so much about this film and the tremendous dread, fear, and horror that I felt throughout(and even understood that as the movie played out that a lot was meant to be NOT understood due to being unable to discern the exact dialogue of the main characters and the convos they had with other Danish characters).. yea, that all played quite well,and yes, it added to the dread, fear, horror, etc..but I'm just dying to know what the hell was happening??

Who, and what was Shelley? Shelley was the evil, and I would like to atleast understand what was discussed about it..like in the healer, Leo's, final scene..he was asking Louise about Shelley(though, I had no clue as to what was being asked), and certainly no clue as to what Louise's reply was to Leo regarding the baby and Shelley..next thing you know Leo goes to the nursery with Louise, and while standing behind Louise, Leo and the baby lock eyes, something horrible seems to arise in him, and he's wide eyed, shaking, and calmly walks out of the house, and vanishes from the face of the earth..what was happening??/and what was said later that night between Louise and Kasper as she seemed to be relaying to Kasper what had happened with Leo.

Kasper was obviously torn from quite early on, in his seeing the beautiful, kind, innocent Elena begin to be tormented physically, mentally, emotionally.. they obviously knew that by Elena's agreeing to carry his and Louise's baby that she essentially, was unknowingly sacrificing her very own life..

What was spoken between these two about all of it? and at the end before Louise murders Kasper what was said? I'd really love to know, even if, as I said, it still doesn't answer all of my questions in the detailed way that I'd like...nonetheless, if someone could please atleast fill me in on what I was unable to understand due to the foreign language barrier..

what was it that the doctor said to Louise about the baby, both during the pregnancy, and after the baby was "born"?? Clearly the doctor was fully aware of what "it" was..what was happening to Elena, and most likely what "Shelley" was, and what "Shelley" meant to Louise, and now Louise's "baby"??


There are so many more questions, but I fear it a complete waste to even continue, if there's no one willing to answer me about the one's I've already brought up, here in this post..

I would be ever so grateful to whomever may take the time to reply to my thread, and whatever light they're willing to shed on the multitude of questions this inquiring mind has about this film.. Thanks in advance.
