Broadcast Signal Intrusion

In the end, the film reveals that James’s pursuit of uncovering the truth is intertwined with his own unraveling mental state. His obsession with the broadcast intrusions and the missing women becomes a reflection of his grief and guilt over his wife Hannah’s disappearance. When he finally finds the supposed third tape, it leads him to a farmhouse where he mistakes a man named Michael Gardner for the kidnapper, driven by a compulsion to find answers and closure. James’ insanity culminates in him kidnapping and recording Michael, believing he is the culprit, and possibly killing him in his delusional state. The movie leaves it ambiguous whether Michael was truly involved in the crimes or if James’s mind is distorting reality. As James drives away from the farm, he is overwhelmed with hallucinations and repressed memories of Hannah, which he cannot fully recall. He ends up shooting a masked woman crossing the road in his distorted perception, and when he witnesses the blood and the creature, it becomes clear that James’s mind is slipping into madness. The film concludes on a haunting, unresolved note, emphasizing that James’s search for closure was doomed from the start. His obsession, combined with his deteriorating mental health, ultimately led him into a world of delusion where the boundary between reality and hallucination collapses, leaving the audience uncertain about what is real and what is imagined. The ending suggests that his quest for truth may have been more about healing than uncovering facts, and thatJames might be forever lost in his obsession and grief.**
