For God's sake. When you wish to be sent back in time, ask to keep your memories of the present day to prevent you from making the same mistake all over again. The witch even warned him of such problems but he still went through with it. When I was watching the film I was practically screaming "ask to keep your memories" but no, he had to wish like a dumbass.
I don't even know why she'd want to go back in time. Most of these characters weren't WORTH saving. They were totally disgraces to humanity and ultra shallow stock horror kill fodder. The world is best without such people, LOL!
shareIt makes sense if she's the witch, and if the game isn't just about killing people but about torturing and corrupting them. Even the winner loses--the previous winner got his legs back, but it was extremely painful, he sacrificed his brother to do it, and he seemed to be always looking over his shoulder.
Since the dice rolls are chance rather than choice, there's the possibility that the game will turn out differently, and one of the less altruistic players will win, thus opening themselves up for long-suffering corruption instead of death. And there's another shot at corrupting the daft lead.
On the other hand, the cop is 'already dead' and has nothing to lose and where's the fun in screwing with someone like that?
It's just a guess based on the Inquisition back story, how the secondary characters are established as kind of slimy, and the fact that 'corrupt the innocent' is a common theme in horror.
Yeah, that was pretty dumb and obvious. I still liked him a lot for the most part though :) By far my favorite of the film
