You're absolutely right in that it's open to interpretation but I was sharing mine

Just wrote this on another thread. The first couple of times I watched the film, I thought it was obvious that Cameron beat Revok. The eyes, the voice (which I could swear is Lack's, not Ironside's), what he says, the sealed up hole in his head. And the most telling was Kim sensing Cameron was still alive. But I just saw it again recently, and I think the ending is supposed to be ambiguous.
The reason I say that is because it was Revok's idea for them to be joined, not Cameron's. Revok says, "Okay we're gonna do it the scanner way. I'm gonna suck your brain dry. Everything you are is gonna become me. You're gonna be with me Cameron, no matter what." Revok wasn't trying to kill Cameron, he wanted Cameron inside of him (which is what happened). Also, Kim's reaction (she just kind of stares at him) might be an indication that she has some doubts.
Plus, the scar being gone doesn't tell us who won the battle. I think the "hole" was how Cameron got into Revok. Remember in the footage of Revok that Cameron watched: the psychiatrist asks what he put over the hole (the patch w/ the eye drawn on it) and he says it's a door, but he drew the eye over it so "they" wouldn't know it was a door. I'm thinking the hole was the "door" that let Cameron enter Revok, but that doesn't tell us who is really in control.
Truewhy would Revok even bother saying anything to Kim? But I figure it's like him hiding under a coat - doesn't make much sense, it's just done for effect.
Ultimately I think Cameron probably did win (too bad, I liked Revok better), but like I said, I don't think we're supposed to be totally sure.

good point the scar had gone

Also the Cameron Revok didn't have a hole scar on his forehead!

in case you didnt notice, Camerons body got burned down in the battle, but his mind was still alive and kicking, so with lack of other bodies around he took possession of Revoks body (notice the eyes turning inward and getting all white). it even zoomed in on revoks eyes at the end to show the blue eyes from Cameron. Revok had brown eyes.
And about the cowering under the coat. I think he was sorting his mind back to normal and taking control of the foreign body, he just made a transisition from one body to another while destroyin the other bodys soul. Must be pretty exhausting ?

Any last words ?

That was great to see Cameron winning! I was glad that Revok was killed off in the end.

It's too signify that he was being RE-born. Breaking free from his cocoon. I thought that was quite obvious.

Being under the coat was SYMBOLISM for a REBIRTH of sorts. He is being REBORN and is coming out of the WOMB.. Pretty straightforward stuff.

I watched the The New Order and The Takeover a few days ago. I had never seen them before. I thought the second one was worth watching but the third wasn't too good. The same director worked on both films but the third felt a little silly.
The effects are certainly better. I don't recall the number of exploding heads on the second one but there is at least one. I believe the third has three.

Ha, I agree, tonight was the first time I'd seen the film. But I figured that he was going to have possessed his brother. Simply because the girl was still alive, I knew they would have used that twist. But I did not see the hiding under a coat coming. As you said he could've been off camera or simply behind a wall.
Now are any of the sequels worth watching and do any of them have the more stylized effects, heads exploding, peoples eyes turning white etc? For these types of films I like the more visually graphic type of elements.

Ha ha yeah I know it was supposed to surprise the audience, but they could have done it in other ways. For example, he could have just been off camera then stepped into the scene or something.

I think a more valid question would be why the hell was he in the corner hiding under his coat?
"You know someone lacks intelligence when their only argument is Dont See It."

Was that the only way Vale could defeat Revok?

Revok's body, Cameron's soul. Cameron won.
