HERE IS THE MILLION-DOLLAR QUESTION: Will you go to Heaven when you die? Here's a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used God's name in vain? Jesus said, ”Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” if you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called H***. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke God's law and Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case: ”For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Then Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death. Today, repent and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as a free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you!

We can thank Melanie Scrofano's character for that. If she wasn't such a trigger-happy disaster, Grace would have died in 5 minutes. Watching a servant get _shot in the face_ pushed Grace from confused boredom, through shocked disbelief, and straight into survival mode.

Are you sure about that, it could be that she is still considered part of the family, but since she won the game, she was allowed to survive.

[@keithwilson3780]

@@speedy01247 If grace was apart of the curse, La Bail’s box wouldn’t have burned down. La Bail would’ve let her know she is still cursed because she won the game when she survived. At the end of movie she asked for a divorce and that’s when Alex exploded. Technically meaning she is free of the curse. La Bail starts the fire and destroyed the house but did not imprint a curse on Grace, he just recognized her for a game well played. Yea she asked for a divorce but she is still legally married to Alex and apart of the family. So it means since all of the main family is dead she’s the sole inheritor of the family’s company and fortune. She is free of the curse and a multi-billionaire. I think she gets everyone’s fortune due to the estate being grace’s now.

@@iB0NKERS Listen to the wording. She had to play the game to be inducted into the family. It wasn't the marriage that brought her into the family and curse, it was playing the box's game.

I think one thing that was interesting was that they didn't immediately combust until they tried to kill Grace anyways. To me this indicates that, had they followed the rules and admitted defeat by the end, rather then being "sore losers" They could have survived.

[@kiram.3619]

interesting point. It would be good to hear the rules of the game directly (& not retold by the idiots). Like, can you fail if you don't try? So the mom & her boys ran away they showed that they saw themselves as players & didn't want to abide by the rules / get the consequences, making them sore losers as well.

does this have something to do when alex told her that she didn’t have to win she just had to play

[@yourmother6106]

Yeah I’ve always wondered if they hadn’t tried to kill her, would they survive or would it be no use

[@mindyg7064]

Or maybe Le Bail just had a flair for the dramatic and wanted them to think it was all BS until they started exploding. It seemed timed for flair- Helene exploding as she turned on Grace, Emilie and her kids blowing up when they were fleeing and Alex going pop just as Grace threw her ring at him. I think Le Bail actually liked Grace and was just enforcing the consequences at the moment he saw fit...

[@skeletonbirdanimations7486]

i love the theory i saw on the kill count video of this movie. the game actually ended in a draw this time, she got caught but not sacrifice so a new game needed to be picked or the marriage needs to happen again. up until Helena says she can still kill our protagonist, thus choosing hide and seek again (only game that would result in death) and auto failing due to it being past dawn. i think that's bloody hysterical, and makes the movie even better

[@TaeThei]

I actually like the theory that they just died due to bad sportmanship. Helena tried to kill Grace when the game was already over. Since theyre a team against one person, the others were to die as well as Helena

[@RetroGamingSweden]

As I understood it.. There cannot be a draw. The rule, as I understood it, were that they had to find her and sacrifice her for them to win. They did not do that so they lost. For her to win.. "Stay hidden till dawn" was not actually the rule to "win". The rule was "Stay alive till dawn to win". They did not tell her that as it would have been far too hard to get her to accept the game. I can be wrong tho as I have not watched the movie. Only this video about it. But I get a sense that if the rule was "Stay hidden till dawn and you win" then the sacrifice would have no reason behind it.

To be fair, that family didn't get hide and seek for years. They probably didn't feel the need to prepare for it, because even without preparation, they always won so far. They always had the numbers and weapons on their side, and with recent technology, they could even lock the doors and windows down so there's no chance of escape. I'd say they and were pretty secure, if not for the fact that Grace was a movie protagonist with the guts and skills to fight and kill her way out and the betrayal of two of their own members.

Elucidate, please. >I'm not sure I want to be part of a group where you either obey or get threatened to suffer for all eternity. That seems to go against the free will God gave us This isn't the Gospel. Read this as it breaks what I said in the Million Dollar Question down: Would you consider yourself to be a good person? How many lies have you told, and what do you call someone who lies? Have you ever stolen something, and what do you call someone who steals? Have you ever taken God’s name in vain (very serious; in Old Testament times, the Jews wouldn’t even say the name of God for fear of blasphemy) - even ‘OMG’? One more: Jesus said whoever looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery in his heart; have you ever looked with lust? Well I’m not judging you - but if you’ve done these things then you’re a liar, thief, blasphemer and adulterer-at-heart; that’s how seriously God takes sin. He is Holy (perfectly good/righteous and separate from sin) which means that H e is perfect in justice - and if He were to judge you by the moral law (we’ve already looked at 4 commandments) would you be innocent or guilty? Heaven or H***? The answer is h*** - the wrath of God upon you for your sin. Is that concerning? But fortunately, God’s will is not that you perish. He wants all men everywhere to be saved. So do you know what He did for us guilty sinners? In self-giving mercy, He sent His Son Jesus Christ. He lived the perfect life that we should have lived - tempted at all points and yet He NEVER sinned. Through His life, being in very nature God, He revealed God to men; but we in our hatred condemned Him to death. On that cross as Jesus suffered, He took on the sin of the world and was judged in our place; receiving God’s wrath. You and I broke God’s law, but Jesus paid the fine. God can justly forgive us. On that cross He died, then He was buried, but 3 days later He was raised from the dead - conquering death and H*** and ushering in The Kingdom of God. He then ascended to the right hand of God the Father (where He came from) now Lord of the living and the dead. God has fixed a date when He will judge the world in righteousness. What you need to do is repent (In humility, acknowledge your sin before God and turn to a relationship with Him) and trust ALONE in Jesus Christ and His work on the cross; and God will grant you the gift of the Holy Spirit. Then be baptised. When you place your trust in Jesus - the Lord and Saviour - these things will happen: 1) God will forgive the sins that you have committed; they were paid for by Jesus at the cross. 2) The perfect life that Jesus lived will be credited to you. He will find you holy and blameless on judgement day (and now), as Christ’s righteousness covers you. 3) You receive a place in Christ’s kingdom as an adopted child of God. God becomes your Father. Eternal life isn’t just about living forever, but a personal relationship with God Himself. That life can start now; The Father will reveal Himself to you if you seek Him. 4) God doesn’t just save you from the penalty of your sin (H***). He can save you from the power of sin itself. Whoever practices sin is a slave of sin; but when you repent and believe the gospel [WHICH HAS BEEN DESCRIBED] the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in you and sanctify you (working in you to further abandon sin and turn to the will of God). When the end of the age comes, and eternity begins, this work will be brought to completion as you are finally freed from the presence of sin. Jesus offers to take away your sin and to give you His righteousness; you must receive it by faith. Choose this day if you will align with the world, or with Jesus and His kingdom - only His is eternal. ROMANS 10:9 - If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved > Kayvon, I'm afraid you're actually following the teachings of a fake prophet. You're tempted by the Devil who created institutionalized religion to deceive people. You're actually being blasphemous by following your devil religion (OBEY OR SUFFER IN HELL!

One possible strategy not mentioned... one of the reasons Grace survived is because of Daniel’s last minute change of heart. Prior to that, he was the only family member outside of Alex that showed her some level of mercy DURING the game. So in such a situation, if you discover that a hunter is having a moral dilemma w/r/t the hunt, you should absolutely (yet carefully) try to talk them into changing sides, whether it be offering them a better alternative, or pleading with their humanity. Make them see you as a person, not prey. Do what you can to illicit empathy from them; at least you might buy some life saving hesitancy from them next time you’re in their sights.

[@teresar6348]

Not a solution but it could help. However it also backfiled when trying to do that with the kids. I personally preferr the idea of trying to make as defensable a room as possible.

If she can get a gun (like when charity dropped it that woulda been a good time) or even kitchen knives which she may have better use of if she has cooking experience (considering she didn't have family to coddle her its likely she would have had to).

I'm surprised no one at the family thought of secretly hiding/destroying the "Hide & Seek" card to prevent their loved ones from potentially getting killed.

In an alternate reality they were just trying to make her feel welcome by playing a game with the family, but the bride is actually a paranoid person who thinks they're trying to kill her.

[@cloudiiblossom]

that would be an interesting sequel, years later (so she has time and bla bla bla) maybe she marries a new family with the SAME traditions yet no sacrifices. and by CHANCE she got hide and seek.

[@tealablu3759]

One of my fave horror movies! Honestly, the game being a filter makes so much sense, I can’t believe I didn’t think of it before

[@SuperTiberian]

I'd like to point out that additionally, it might've been a good idea for Grace to get in front of the drivers car. They probably couldn't see how ragged and blood-soaked she was in the dark, had she got'n in front of the car's headlights they likely would've realised she desperately needed help and stopped. They did see her and they were driving just slow enough that if she did get in front of them, they could easily stop in time before running her down. Also I love the fact that everyone just fucking explodes into a bloody paste in the end. No over-dramatic bursting into flames and screaming in horror as they realise this is officially their final moments on Earth, they just fucking explode.

[@Penguinmanereikel]

Call it cheesy, but I think it would’ve been more interesting if the rules were changed a bit, such that, the sacrifice person needs to be “innocent” to draw the card, and if the hider survives until dawn, they don’t need to be sacrificed any more, because they’re no longer mentally innocent, and they’re now welcomed into the family. Sure, you’d have to change a few more plot points, but I like the idea that the hide ’n’ seek game as really just a way to make innocent family newcomers sinful.

[@ethanlusty2839]

Then they wouldn't try killing her as there wouldn't be any point because there wouldn't be any chance of them dieing

[@Penguinmanereikel]

@@ethanlusty2839 yeah, that’s why even more rules would need to be changed to motivate them to try to kill her

[@iTwineOG]

Well it is a deal with a devil. There wouldn't be any point if people didnt have to die. Normally people are sacrificed to the devil just because they need sacrifices. At least in this movie there is a chance that you may not draw the hide and seek card, also the fact that you can win if you survive the entire night

[@Penguinmanereikel]

@@iTwineOG the narrator of the video points out that it doesn’t appear to be random, and that it might be deterministic based on how virtuous the family’s new addition is, given that none of the sinful in-laws drew the hide-n-seek card

[@kayvoncrenshaw1799]

HERE IS THE MILLION-DOLLAR QUESTION: Will you go to Heaven when you die? Here's a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used God's name in vain? Jesus said, ”Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” if you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called H***. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke God's law and Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case: ”For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Then Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death. Today, repent and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as a free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you!

[@TopsyTriceratops]

Man, poor Daniel. Hopefully willingly trying to save the victim and stop the ritual for good let him leave the Devil's grasp. Unlikely, but still something to hope about.

[@TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

I just think she’s lucky that the family is pretty terrible at this game in the first place. If they decided to use every resource at their disposal and didn’t do it the old fashioned way, they could’ve easily got her.

[@MrNickPresley]

I assume that running it the old fashioned way was part of the rules, and it would be considered cheating if they used cameras and the like, and therefore instant death for the family. Or maybe, since there was no objection to turning on the cameras later on, they’re just big on fair play, despite being a family of people who sold their souls for money.

I think part of the deal is that they have to make sure the family stays worthy of the devil’s gift.

If you think about it, the devil's rules are quite logical, I mean if a family member manages to get married to someone lawful and has strong morals, its likely that she'll investigate more on the bad deeds of the family, later on she'd also be joining in the rituals if that ever comes to happen and I'm guessing that would be difficult for someone lawful.

Step one. Live in sin and never get married. There, that's it. You won. The movie explicitly states that the curse only kicks in on marriage on only affects true born family members. Bastards and mistresses/lovers don't seem to count. With that in mind, why the HELL would you get married? Yeah, you would never benefit from the curses blessings if your family line was carried on through affairs and unofficial unions but you wouldn't have to worry about your entire family line being wiped out by a single mistake either. Instead everyone in the family treated the whole situated as a binary problem. Them or us. Live or die.

[@iusethisnameformygoogleacc1013]

I get the impression that everyone involved was pretty convinced Satan would not take kindly to being screwed by loopholes, so there was probably some pretty intense internal pressure to get married on all of them. Alternative answer: that was literally true, and things would go really poorly for you if you tried it.
