The crowd closes ranks, and it is their grief, panic, and long-standing trauma that gets exploited. A terror-stricken bystander repeats the mantra, and it quickly spreads like poison. Former Sheriff Charles Brackett, now a hospital security guard, buys into this delusion, obviously stemming from the murder of his daughter Annie in Tovoli soon arrives, winding through the hallways with a lumbered step.
Tovoli runs for his life up to the sixth floor, the horde hot on his heels. Moments before they can pounce, Karen, in her most well-intentioned way, attempts to console him. She inches closer, takes his hand, and leads him off to an enclosed corridor, where she can lock both entrances and stand as a sort of guard. The throng of fury-fueled townspeople have only one thing on their mind: murder.
His face distorts in heartbreaking terror, and he quickly crumbles into tears. In his mind, he perhaps imagines himself the true Evil and the only way to end any further suffering, for himself and others, is to leap to his death. He rips a fire extinguisher off the wall and hurls its metallic bottom against the window pane; each blow acts as an exclamation point, heightening the emotional elasticity before it snaps altogether. The glass shatters, and Tovoli ventures out onto the ledge, the cool night air hitting his face.
The scene almost stands still, and for a fraction of a second, you think he could be saved after all. But the moment collapses when the mob barges through the door, and Tovoli lets his body slip from that sixth floor window.
Everything he once was, is, and could be tumbles and crashes into the concrete. His mangled, bloody body twitches, eliciting shrieks and gasps from the crowd. In less than five minutes, Halloween Kills captures the brutal tragedy of those who live with mental illness. Beneath the surface, the film also comments on the storied history of mental health institutions and the many wild treatments enforced on patients. Tovoli, who twirls a sun umbrella and has an affinity for shoelaces, is emblematic of a much larger problem that dates back 7, years when techniques like trephination removing a portion of the skull and bloodletting rooted in Greek culture were used to alleviate mental illness.
Later, in the 17th century, mental health institutions, or more egregiously known as insane asylums, became the norm and were often littered with inhumane procedures including hydrotherapy, shock therapy, and use of straight jackets and other constraints , and unsanitary living conditions. It is easy to get in, but once there, it is impossible to get out.
The question right now is simple; when will we actually get to try those features out for ourselves? Last year the company had a lot to share, much of it looking to the far-flung future of VR, including Santa Cruz. All of that will be a year closer by the time Connect 4 rolls around and we want to see the progress Oculus has made. With Intel promising standalone headsets out later this year, will Facebook rush to get a competitor to market?
Or is Santa Cruz destined to have a long development cycle similar to that of the Rift? Will he lead the company into calmer waters? Jamie has been covering the VR industry since having come from a gaming and technology background. We don't know the year in which Tom can watch a TV with 3-D projection, but we know a couple other things going on around that time: The country will run out of beef and digital projection screens will have replaced just about every screen we use now.
A Space Haystack will be built around Seattle's Space Needle, Middle Korea will be a place, and Gryzzl will up its game with a transparent radio and phone watches with video projection. Ten years from today that Fitbit of yours will really be obsolete thanks to face-scanning watches that say things like, "You are extremely healthy. Jerry will die and it'll be a sad day. But at least technology will advance far enough that people will be able to attend his funeral via video drone.
We don't know the year, but the furthest look ahead seems to come in a brief scene aboard an airplane with a transparent body. Passengers are wearing head-mounted, video-watching devices, which seems very futuristic, but they're also eating salmon, which doesn't.
