Doesn't help that it requires even the things that other people see like her nose bleed, the fly coming out of her mouth and the siance(sp?) that kills the woman to be hallucinations too. not to mention that the film's opening kind of poops on that theory. Though if I were that guy, I'd also add that vegetarianism and lactose intolerance are to excuses eating disorder sufferers often use. |
Yeah there are definately a few issues with this idea, although a lot of them are addressed in the thread on IMDB. For example, everything we see in the film is from her perspective and so we can't be sure whether other people actually see the things she does. Although it seemed pretty obvious from the nose bleed scene that others were affected and the opening of the film obviously goes against this theory. I'd definately be inclined to believe that Sam Raimi intended to have this an alternative theme running through the film though.
