I count it a the first murder mystery Horror as you are left guessing at the end who the bandaged person was in the bed. The film obviously ends with the audience thinking that its Tyler after the guards broke him out of the 'cooler' and mutilated him. That's why the brother thinks that it is Tyler and after getting the bandages off is horrified by what he sees. To iasimkhovich, The borther clearly did not think he was a psycho would wanted to eat him, he genuinely thought the person under the bandages was in fact his brother. The fact that the idenity is neer explained, leads both the brother and the viewer thinking that the brutally mutilated person was indeed Tyler....or whats left of him after the guards got him. Some prop could have been left to show who the person was under the bandages like id in a wallet or photo/drivers licence so the viewer and the brother would have closure about who the bandaged person was. But the film-maker left it as a cliff hanger ending for your imagination on who the mystery patient was. I agree the events before the sort of revelations were badly edited, as you just saw them ripping apart Billy and that was it. So what happened to mark, Rose, Estelle and Tyler? We will never know, did they escape or were they overpowered and eaten by the guards. I guess we'll never know.
