Excellent movie

1). This movie is quite creepy, despite the absence of fancy CGI and gore. The acting was great by everyone. I love the visuals and the setting. I have a big crush on the actress who played Olga

2). The only flaw is that I wasn’t so hot about the ending. What was the deal about how Olga’s uncle saw the deceased sister-in-law at the end? The sister-in-law couldn’t possibly be alive, and why would the Olga’s uncle hallucinate her: he had no mental issues. So what the heck was that ending about?

3). What exactly is next for Olga and Isaac? She’s still tied up with that chain and vest: is he going to free her, or is he going to call someone (police) to go and free her? If he calls police, what are they going to say about the body (bodies) in the basement? And at the end, is Olga going to let Isaac (and the dog) just leave, or is she going to shoot him? .. the ending just leaves so much unanswered

Seems to be confirming the supernatural. Either that, or he's bleeding out and seeing things due to a guilty conscience. Heck, maybe he's already dead and witnessing some apparition come to drag him off to hell.

I believe him when he says he's going to call for help. Whether or not she shoots him is the real question. The filmmaker left it up to the viewer to decide, which does make things unsettling. Personally, I'd like to think he makes it. If she kills him, she's as good as dead herself, stranded on that island.
