For those of you confused about the ending…

are you even being serious with that? You don't have to be a doctor to be familiar with heart-lung machines.
edit: oh, were you poking fun at me bc I referred to a "breathing" machine for someone with no lungs in their body? lol, it was obvious what I meant. -

Maybe a few people thought it was going the way of this film's sibling-in-spirit MAY, where (Spoilers for MAY)
the "human doll" appears to be alive to May at the end, even though it's far more likely that this is just May's dying vision
.
But they didn't show anything like that. If they had shown the sister seeming to come alive in Pauline's mind, I could understand how people might be a bit confused. But as the OP said, it's pretty clear that Grace, the nicest and most innocent character in the whole cast, is dead.
It actually was a pretty shocking ending. I was certain Traci Lords would be the one to die.

Agree with you DHB - whats so complicated??? An 18 year old complete whack job has killed two people because she has convinced herself she is a surgeon and can actually perform a lung transplant. Pretty simple. I think the only question for debate is Pauline's reaction when her mother grabs her. In any event, terrific film. Watched it again last night - INTENSE!!

I think the blood coming out of her sister's mouth during the procedure was probably a bad sign. Having airways full of blood is going to be an issue when you transplant new lungs. Also she didn't seem to be sufficiently concerned with getting her sister breathing again once she'd finished the operation.

LOL. Thanks for clarifying. My pet bird thanks you as well.
puts away knife set
Honestly. A missing organ, pale skin, blood spurting out of the mouth and a mother's wails of sorrow didn't trip the alarm for some people that this kid died. -

What grinds my gears: people who misuse the word pedophile. Get some education. A pedophile is someone sexually attracted to PREPUBRSCENT kids. A 14 year old is NOT prepubescent. Pedophiles are attracted to kids below the age of 10-11.

Worst as in artistically / as a denouement for a film, or worst for a surgeon? If it's the latter, I'd agree. Also, terrible for people with OCD. So much mess

Too late."
it was merely in jest.
