Part 7/9:
The climax of the film converges on the chilling idea that success in the competition leads not to freedom, but rather to a horrifying cyclical existence as the next Jack the Ripper. The ultimate tragedy lies in Tommy's realization that the letters from his brother were a façade conjured by his mother to keep him enslaved to the tradition. In a harrowing twist of fate, the roles of hunter and hunted blur, culminating in Tommy’s reluctant acceptance of his dark inheritance.
