WOW. good stuff. (D) was my favorite of your explanations and its personally exactly how i felt at the time. we thought at the moment Sarah was going to persevere. boy were we wrong.
They mostly come out at night; mostly. -

Was it the cop or the perp?
I thought it was the perp. After he is impaled, they linger on his face, leading me to believe he would come back.
And it is a plotline to give the villian the upper hand (and maybe they had some blood left over). -

WOW! The cop handcuffed the perp and also gave him a belt with a slot to hold a
nightstick
?
Right
Anyone who believes that must have
A. Only viewed this film
once
and in the chaos of all the unrelenting violent imagery, became horribly confused.
B. Seen the film multiple times but can't grasp what actually happened in that scene because they are either visually impaired or are suffering from a little brain damage themselves.

He attacked Sarah because, in his state of mind, he thought she was La Femme.
As for why it happenedit was probably a deus ex machina to get the film to end with La Femme performing the caesarian section on Sarah. -

I really hate that scene. Until that moment the movie worked as a very good piece of gore with a "realistic" approach thanx to the inclusion of racial riots as a backdrop for the film. But then the "zombie" appears and everything becomes a mess.
Why a "zombie" scene was suddenly included? I have no idea. I just know that it doesn't works. That scene feels taken from a completely different movie. -

its not a ZOMBlE you fool - anyone that is saying that this scene is completely unrealistic is a fool - you know nothing about the human body and what degree of trauma it can handle - best realistic violence movie ever - and ill prove it to those who dont believe

Figured That La Femme chick, if she was the evil one? Never caught up with the names Anyways, she had the shock gun, which I figured didn't kill, only harmed (thought it was a tazer at first, but I've reconsidered.) Anyway, the cop turns to face the shock gun as she puts it to the side of his skull, and then she shoots, his eyes facing the gun.
My understanding is he was blinded, and was still trying to protect the pregno'lady, but ended up beating her up as to put insult to injury. As she killed her mom, typical horrorstuff innit.
I might be wrong though since he flicked on the power 'fore his craze.
He might've been Ben Affleck though, acting all daredevil

I also thought he was blinded and probably mad with rage at the one who did this to him, so he lashed out when he heard a voice near him, thinking it was her.
On second thought though how could he switch the lights back on blinded, when before it took him forever to fumble with the switches and he didn't manage to do it anyway?
The film doesn't make much sense anyway though so whatever. ^^ -

i came on this board looking for a topic of this kind, so if someone else brought this up, i guess i was right: that scene made no sense and made the movie seam like a cheap horror flick, it was added only for the violence. the movie sucked because of that.

He turned the light on to scare the audience. He obviously just figured it out how to do it because he was blind and could still sense it.
Now the reason he hit Sarah i think was because it was normal police tactics to use a batton in this way. Despite his state he simply believed she was the killer and responded in the exact way he had been taught. -

Exactlythe movie takes place where there's a great deal of civil unrest going on and people are burning cars.
People who get shot in the head survive it more than you think. It looked like to me he was standing in a stupor listening to the static of the TV and then went ape sh!t when he heard a female voice. -

I had lost interest by that point, but it was a really stupid scene.
Someone on here also made a point I didn't catch immediately: when the killer puts the Stun Gun thing up to his head (and it would have been nice if they said what the thing was at any point), the cop turns and looks at it at which point it cuts away and you hear two shots. It would seem she shot him in the face with it but he has wounds on the side of his head and can apparently see well enough to do (sorry trolls, but it's true) epic Zombie battle with the killer and Sarah's stomach. I had just watched 28 Weeks Later and he looked and acted like he had the rage virus but otherwise the scene made no sense and seemed tacked on as an excuse to give the killer a weapon and send Sarah into labor.
Was he blind? Was he a zombie? Was he in a well filmed but otherwise horrid piece of gore porn?
(The answers: 1.Maybe 2.No, but his character had as much depth as one. 3. Oh my yes.)
