• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

I watched it yesterday and I have to admit it does have a few scary bits in it. But I don't know if I should bow down and accept the bewildered ending or try to work out the need, the logic behind it and the intense ichor in it just to provide a male host for a demon/spirit called Paimon.
I find myself asking the question was it all really necessary and what happens next.

Paimon finally has a male host so what next...

I'll let my fellow Litopian's watch and decide for themselves.

After I watched it. I phoned @Tim James and slept with the light on that night. When Annie cuts off her own head with the wire/string from the piano while she’s levitating in the air. It was scary but looking back now it was bizarre. And what really annoyed me was the story had no resolution whatsoever, just a really baffling ending.
