Returning at night they bury the bodies, however, their plan soon unfurls and the villagers discover the corpses and due to the strange actions of Vaughn and Marcus, realise what has happened. This Venison reminds him of the hunting trip and it was a nice callback that sets of the character being guilty to the point of vomiting. I loved their tense interaction in the restaurant and we see that Vaughn struggles to eat Venison. Back in the village the group bump into Logan, who is one of the Village’s head citizens. We can conclude that he came to this decision due to the fact that his previous interactions with the villagers had been almost violent and there was definitely an uneasy tension to every interaction with them.ĭeciding that they have to cover up the crime, the duo return at night and under the cover of darkness, bury the bodies.

Hunting Trip Gone Wrongĭuring a hunting trip, Vaughn accidentally shoots a child, wounding them fatally. With that out the way, I’m Deffinition and this is my ending explanation for Calibre. I definitely think that this film is worth seeing with no prior knowledge and highly recommend that you go into it as blind as possible. Throughout this article I will be discussing the film’s plot and ending so there will be heavy spoilers. The film follows two friends named Marcus and Vaughn as they embark on a hunting trip in the Scottish Highlands. After an initial mishap during the trip, the duo find themselves in increasing danger as natives to the village slowly begin to attack and threaten them. While Marcus died with his own crooked sense of right, Vaughn lives with an irreversible sense of wrong.Calibre: Ending Explained (Netflix 2018 Movie)Ĭalibre is a 2018 Scottish Thriller starring Jack Lowden, Tony Curran and Martin McCann. But he will never be able to do so from having to kill his friend. Vaughn could have recovered from accidentally killing the boy. What did they achieve by making Vaughn kill Marcus? They have killed him too, not physically but emotionally and mentally. Who is the most evil? To me, Marcus and Vaughn are sinful and dishonorable but not evil. I am not saying he is a virtuous man, but circumstances and bad fate made him do what he had to do. But no, he wants his friend to live and makes it easier for him. If he was plainly selfish, he would have been more worried about his own death. This is even more strongly established when makes eye contact with the latter just before his death suggesting "I am ready". His friend means him a more than something. Yet, he makes a split second decision to protect his friend. Aiming from behind, he does not know that the father is NOT YET ready to kill. Within his own conscience, i guess he is not. In doing so, they believe debt was paid and justice served.īut is Marcus really a bad guy? I am not sure. When the locals find out the truth, they make Vaughn kill Marcus at gun point. He is ready to consciously do one mistake after another to cover up the original crime. Marcus talks Vaughn out of approaching the police. While the first one is an accident, the second one is murder. Neither was his finger on the trigger(his fingers are just wrapped around the trigger guard). Could he have rather injured his leg and then try to disarm him? The expressions of the father just before he was killed does not suggest that he made his choice to go for the kill. When the grieving father of the boy points the gun at Vaughn. He is the one who pushes Vaughn to pull the trigger for the fatal shot that accidentally kills the boy. He not only stands up for Vaughn when he is attacked at the bar but also is ready to aggravate the situation. He makes sure Logan understands that he is not welcome between him and his friend. The first few minutes establish a sense that Vaughn is docile and Marcus is keen to lead and take control of situations, much like an alpha Wolf. Two questions ponder me the most - Is Marcus really the bad guy? Who is the most evil among Vaughn, Marcus and The Locals? It made me go through wide range of emotions and different thought processes.
