Fridge Horror

  • The movie ends on a seemingly satisfactory note as the psycho cop Abel is killed and will no longer torment his neighbors. Later on, you realize his children are now orphans.
    • The ending of The Island contains a similar consequence.
    • Then again, they could have very likely moved in with Lisa and Chris.
      • More likely they'll stay with their aunt. They were already with her for the weekend anyway.
    • Abel was a ticking time bomb who finally went off at the end. As a threat to himself and everyone around him, he really should have no place raising his children.
  • Considering that Abel's cop friends did nothing to stop Abel's corrupt actions, that says a lot about Abel's friends.
  • One wonders just how long did Abel Turner terrorize interracial couples before he committed Suicide by Cop?
  • A woman during a party praises Abel for his service as a cop. One wonders how she reacted when she learns that the man she praised was a corrupt cop and tried to murder his neighbors right before he died trying to shoot his neighbors and other police officers...

Fridge Brilliance

  • It's cited on the first page how implausible it would be Abel to afford his house on a beat cop's salary, but not if his late wife had a life insurance policy.
