Um, what EXACTLY happened to Mark?


He goes off with a girl and ends up half naked and wearing someone else's face?
I wish we would have seen more of what actually happened.

reply

Actually, the half-naked man was wearing Mark's face.
It was the guy who was angry at him for pissing on the sacred log.

they played skin the fool with him

reply

Actually, I saw the dude with Mark's face and I thought it was Mark himself. I was sat there, unable to figure out why he suddenly looked so brutalised. I didn't know it was just his face skin until I came here.

True to form, it was so easy to lead a dumbass man to his death when expecting sex. Totally realistic, but a bit cliché. I don't think it was very clear what happened to him.

What happened to Connie exactly? Was (part of her) body in the temple at the end?

reply

Yes, part of her body was in the temple.

reply

Thanks. I figured it was. But the explained "math" to get to the 9 bodies in the temple seemed rushed, and figuring out who was whom at the temple was tough. But we did not ignore the bear...

reply

It wasn't really rushed. The 4 outsiders were clearly the 4 friends who had gone missing.

reply

Agreed. It requires a thinking viewer who has paid attention, but it is in no way rushed. I think a lesser film would have spelled it all out, or even done a series of flashbacks to carefully show even the most obtuse of viewers exactly who was where and how they got there.

reply

Color me obtuse!

reply

It's not that. It's just that they have generic white faces with the exception of the black friend. And add to that they were all fucked up. You couldn't tell who was who.

reply

I was confused by how he just disappears from the movie. I didn't realize the face mask was his face.
