The movie industry is notorious for incorporating research into films to make them realistic — the Kill List is no different. If you have not seen this movie at has been billed as a horror movie. I disagree about placing this movie into the horror genre. This is a movie about satanism in the present.
The movie is centered around a British discharged military veteran who appears to be suffering with post traumatic stress disorder and who is currently a contract killer on hiatus. His wife and son keep him grounded but financial troubles pull him back to contract killing coupled by the fact his wife wants him back on the job. There are key moments in the movie where the wife makes her satanic ideology conspicuous.
There is a scene at their dinner party where the husband’s best friend and contract killer partner deny the Most High. The partner’s girlfriend is about to say grace and the wife says, “No, not at my table.” This was a clear example of a separation from God. There is another scene where their black cat kills a rabbit kill and leaves it on the front lawn. The husband happily dresses the rabbit and eats it. There is a relationship to rabbits with the ancient pagan religion of Mystery Babylon.
The black cat was later killed which is a harbinger of evil. What peaked my interest was when the partner’s girlfriend excused herself (from the dinner table) to the bathroom where she secretly carved a symbol on the back of a mirror. I have seen a representation to this symbol while plotting gates in the star/planet simulation software. It occurred to me this symbol could represent one of the anciently revered gates.
I presume it was the “Silver Gate” because there was change in the main contract killer’s professional behavior. His partner became disgusted with his new sadistic killing style. Obviously there was a difference before and after the symbol was carved on to the back of the mirror. He developed a blood-lust and he began to torture his kills with great fervor.
Strangely enough each of his victims thanked him before he killed them. Meaning they knew who he was OR who he would become. The three (which again is a significant number) victims were: a Catholic priest, a librarian, and a member of Parliament. Each of his victims represented a metaphor for religion (Catholic Church), history (information) and Government had all been infiltrated by satanic forces.
Psalm 106:37-38
They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons; they poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was polluted with blood.
It was an honor for them to be killed by their future King’s host who would incarnate on earth! The main character seemed perplexed and incensed he was being thanked for killing them and this enraged him. Each kill was making him darker and darker. The symbol carved was part of a binding spell in order for him to become possessed by a fallen angel. The satanic group in the movie did not fear death, in fact they embraced it.
In my opinion, this movie oscillated around the POWER of symbols and the associated spells. The main character progressively evolved into a blood-thirsty demon with no conscious. In fact he was told to forget about the past AND the future and only live in the moment. Something Oprah Winfrey force fed millions with her Eckhart Tolle New Age mamby-pamby psychological agenda.
In summary we have a movie misclassified as horror which is most likely a reality in our present time. I look at it more as a documentary about the satanic kingdom. In the ancient times parents would sacrifice their first born to Molech (satanic) for the prosperity blessing. There is a symbol we can associate with a star-gate mapping carved on to the back of a mirror which illustrates a spell binding — a home to a star-gate? It tells us there has been a satanic conspiracy to infiltrate: religion, history, and Government. Also parents are teaching there children to ostracize the Most High. This family was targeted and through black magic the main character received the spirit from dark forces and becomes the King of the cult.
