#I want a scene of his vengeful fucking ghost haunting the shit out of Hoffman in that bathroom

[brysbeddixt]

I think the reason Adam’s death hurts me the most is that from the moment the key goes down the drain, he’s doomed. He technically won his game and survived, he even admits, screaming, “I want to live!” But from the moment Lawrence gets the second phone call from Zep, the second the timer runs out and he wins, things get so absolutely irrevocably fucked sideways that he dies anyway.

His last 20 minutes of relatively unharmed, not-actively-dying life are so ridiculously traumatizing on their own. You hear a mother and her daughter get brutalized and possibly killed over the phone while the father can only listen. The father, whose name you know and you know he loves his daughter, that’s about the only damn things you know for certain about him.

And then you watch this man, who to be fair is kind of an asshole but has also had MULTIPLE chances to kill you and hasn’t legitimately considered a single one, SAW THROUGH HIS ENTIRE FUCKING FOOT while you can only watch and scream.

And then he shoots you, while you beg for your life but again you can’t move. And you aren’t dead, but now somebody’s trying to kill him, and it doesn’t matter that he just shot you; you don’t want to watch him die. So you, who have never seen a dead body in your life before today, bash his attacker’s head in with a toilet tank lid.

And then the man who has been your only constant through hours of hell, who you can finally touch, is crawling away and leaving you chained to a pipe, having just been shot.

And just as a final ‘fuck you,’ the man responsible for all of it - who has been in the room with you the entire time - gets up off the floor like a fucking zombie, drops the bomb on you that you were doomed from the very beginning, and leaves you screaming in the dark with no way out.

And you die there. The tape lied. It was always going to be the room you died in, there was never a choice.
