This movie would have been a classic...
IF the ending made ANY sense whatsoever. lol
A) She was told there is an afterlife and wanted to get their immediately. And perhaps shot herself as to signal to everyone else that they had a breakthrough and there is am afterlife.
The whole point to the cult was to torture martyrs in an effort to find out clues to the afterlife. Why wouldn't she share their success? It makes zero sense to kill herself without telling the rest of her society so they can share in the knowledge.
B) She thought she would get it over and done with. She had been searching for all this time, making so many people suffer for it to be in the end - a waste. Because there is no afterlife.
Again - why wouldn't she tell the other members of the society that torturing poor innocent people was a complete waste so they would also feel bad and stop doing it?
They weren't murdering people for the sake of being psychopaths (which is why this movie is truly distrubing). They were torturing people for enlightenment...for knowledge. If their efforts didn't result in anything...why go on?
If anything, she should have told the soceity their efforts were in vain, they were wrong, and then she shot herself in guilt. That would have made sense.
The ending in this movie is just a horrible, dumb F##@ up, as far as I am concerned. lol It's a lame attempt to make the viewer come up with their own interpretation....yet every interpretation makes no sense.
