Depraved

In the ending of Depraved, Adam finds himself completely alone, as he narrates his life on the run, hunted by the police after being falsely accused of Polidori’s murder and other crimes he didn’t commit. His story reveals a deep sense of loneliness and a struggle to understand the world without the guidance of his creator, Henry. Throughout the film, Adam’s existence mirrored the core themes of trauma and identity—he bears the weight of his traumatic brain and upbringing, which have left him emotionally stunted and disconnected from society. Despite Henry’s benevolent intentions, Adam’s development is marred by the deception and neglect he faced, pushing him toward violent acts as he attempts to find his place. The film ends with Adam emotionally vulnerable, reflecting on his loneliness and the uncertainty of what his future holds, emphasizing the tragic consequences of playing god and the importance of empathy and responsibility in shaping what it means to be human. Ultimately, his story is a haunting reminder of the brutal effects of trauma, the pain of isolation, and the moral dilemmas of scientific ambition.
