1* AlternateCharacterInterpretation:
2** Jay: a traumatized soldier forced into doing something horrible for his family who gradually turns into a KnightTemplar or an evil BloodKnight whose ongoing cruelty to his family and refusal to do anything about it makes them all miserable and [[spoiler:leads to their deaths]]?
3** Shel: a vicious and unlikeable GoldDigger turned LadyMacbeth or a desperate woman trapped in a marriage that increasingly borders on abusive to a serial murderer with severe anger issues?
4** Fiona: does she genuinely feel some remorse for [[spoiler:Sammy and Shel (and maybe even Gal's) deaths at the end]], or is she just happy the plan worked?
5** Also, was her ongoing attention to Sammy and Shel solely to prepare them for the sacrifice, or did she actually have another plan in mind to potentially save them?
6** Why does Shel laugh at the end? Has she been DrivenToMadness by [[spoiler:being killed, and her own son dying, at her husband's hands?]] Is it because she knows that the cult have got Jay? Is she tormenting Jay because this is what he wanted, or because a FateWorseThanDeath lies in store for him? Also, what does Shel know about the cult, and Fiona's manipulations, in general?
7* SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments: Gal [[spoiler: mowing down an entire hallway full of deranged cultists after the M.P. job goes tits up]]. Similarly, Shel going into MamaBear mode and [[spoiler: coldly gunning down several cultists]] in the climax.
8* CatharsisFactor: Subverted with Jay's brutal murder of the librarian. Even though the victim is a horrific pedophile, his peaceful acceptance of the situation is offputting enough to drain the viewer of any satisfaction at his death.
