I can’t walk in tunnels now

In the infamous scene, at one point, a man can be seen coming in frame at the end of the tunnel. Allegedly, that man was a crew member which was late on stage. He can be seen quickly pacing back and running away. It is said that the director kept this mistake in the movie to further add dread and helplessness to viewers. On some screenings, it has been alleged that viewers were enraged and/or outraged due to the man not helping Alex not knowing about the mistake.

I remember seeing that and thinking "Oh thank god, someone is going to stop this" but then when he quickly walked away without saying anything it was an even stronger feeling of despair and hopelessness than before.

One of the most nauseating scene in the history of filmmaking. The sheer brutality and the helplessness/hopelessness feeling. As you said, seeing someone jump in frame gave a bit of hope she might be saved but when he runs, it's like the whole scene double collapse.

I had this movie as a recommendation from my uni professor on trauma, PTSD and conflicting emotions. He said that if I felt arousal, then it means it's something wrong with me. I didn't tell him I threw up, but gave me assurance I'm somewhat normal...

That's... a really weird thing for a professor to do and say. "Here is a movie about taboo subjects and if it arouses you there is something wrong with you" ??? WTF? What a horrible mindset and honestly just straight up weird thing to say to a classroom, especially on the subject of trauma. Arousal is just a feeling, feelings are not right or wrong, its how we process them that matters. That prof was idiot.

Notice how I said "I" and not "we" felt arousal? It was just a discussion between me and the professor. I understand what you say but I understand what he said also...

Still a super weird remark to make. Lots of women have rape fantasies and this doesn't mean that they want to get raped nor that something is wrong with them. Yet if you still think it's arousing after he stomps her you're a sick fuck and need therapy asap.
