I thought this was a pretty clever way of showing how some people are really demons in disguise, anyone who'd off their own kid just to pay off their own foolish debt deserves hell. But they aren't the only evildoers, the couple who initially appears to help them are actually there to make them realize the extent of the things they've done, a weak willed husband and a manipulative wife, there isn't enough they can do to justify what they did to their baby, and trying to run from it. Nope, not here!
I enjoy that the the couple is being made to pay for what they've done, being doomed for his cowardice and the wife being doomed for her manipulation and selfish plotting. At the end when the reality of their situation is revealed, I've always thought that the boy was supposed to be their baby when he grew up, I'm surprised no one else seems to catch that, since they say Scarlett killed him and he was innocent, feels like they're referencing her son and the farm kid, maybe they're the same person? Or supposed to be?
At the beginning the old man discusses how her father had this accident as per her mom's coaching and he tells her she'll see him again. He already knew she was going to be like her mom who probably killed the dad because he did something awful to Scarlett, I think is implied. I feel like since that happened and the reality of her father's death was covered up, as an adult she thought I'll just off this kid and cover it up like my mom!
I liked the ending and I didn't see it coming until the running couple realize they were back at the farmhouse again. That was when the moment of terror set in, realizing they were in some sort of limbo but at the same time you don't feel bad for them because it all begins to make more sense, the things they were reprimanded for, like how could you do it, he was innocent! So it's like oh they definitely did kill their baby, and then at the end when it's revealed, it's just so sad because he was innocent. I wish it was more clear about Scarlett's mindset regarding her thoughts at her fathers funeral playing a role into why made the choices she made in her adult life that ultimately led to her doom.
I enjoyed the twist ending though! My brother had seen this first and had me watch it, he kept saying yeah the torture is brutal but it's because they deserve it. I was like they did NOT really kill that baby did they?! But yup, they deserved it, especially that cheese grater to the knee haha.
