*** Spoiler Alert ***
I'm a huge Twilight Zone fan, so the bizarre and off-key are appealing.
I've read a few theories here (I appreciate how passionate people are about movies, and the thoughts presented in this forum)...
The 666 PPP license plate (which I did catch). PPP being 6 upside down potentially representing Good. Noah, drinking water out of the trunk of his car. Didn't it seem like there was something in Noah's trunk based on his long gaze--or was it just a bad film edit? There is one theory about Noah, and all the animals are gone with the "ark", though I'm not behind that story because Noah ends up disappearing. I do wonder why they didn't search Noah's pockets for any clues--seems like a reasonable thing to do before you start shooting someone.
The alien child, who is having fun with the humans, playing with them (there is actually an old Star Trek episode that has this plot as well). I find this theory entertaining -- though, the writers left no hint whatsoever of any alien presence. The "Help Me", "Dont Blink" messages and the noose tend to slant away from an alien influence, IMHO.
I really like the theory about they all died in a car accident and one by one had to prepare to move on to the whatever was next. It ties in nicely with the fire engine because if you think about it, the authorities probably would have sent several fast police cruisers to respond to that 911 call. Not a lumbering fire engine that would have to navigate back roads. The fire engine would have showed up later. But - if it were a massive crash, a fire engine would most likely be among the first respondents.
So here is a summary of our clues:
666 PPP The frozen lake with a boat, fishing rod at the ready, no fisherman "Help Me" "Dont Blink" "Noose" It snows though nobody remembers snow (this was probably due to filming over multiple days) Disappearing blood trails "I don't blink" from the MIB (nice touch BTW).
I'm going with they died in a crash, and had to work their way to the next step in the process. The cabin was a "holding ground" for them to work their way out. The weird "clues" were just strange reflections from the group as they worked there way through the "on- boarding" process to wherever they were each going next. Remember Tracy was apparently a really good person, and some of the other characters not so much -- so there is a strong feeling of "Good" and "Evil". I think the MIB were brought in to clean up whatever was left of the ordeal. Who remembers: "Going my way?" from Twilight Zone?
Anyway - I would be pleasantly surprised if they released a sequel and proved me completely wrong!
