I admire the film because its distinctive visuals so beautifully mirror Phantasm's themes. Our last, wistful view of Jody, from a distance and bound for parts unknown. Idea that we all place ourselves at the center of our fantasies, as the heroesĭeals with death by becoming a superhero of sorts, one who conquers long-lived Is a reflection of a youthful mentality: the belief that you are somehow immune Tangles with the Tall Man and his minions no less than four times in the film,Īnd always emerges unscathed, only to prove, finally, victorious in his Quality of the film (as a teen’s dream) is also made clear by Michael’s Teenager, the interpretation tracks admirably if you take Coscarelli’s originalĪs a standalone effort and not part of a “franchise.” As I have also written before, I believe this Vox teleports Chaos away.Preclude the possibility that this film is but the dream of a sad, grief-ridden Chaos kills Mowg as well, then summons Marilith who is defeated by Wol. Wol intercepts him, but not before Chaos kills several moogles who attempted to delay him. Chaos pursues Wol after noticing he has grown stronger, but after talking to Vox, he targets Mogheim. Wol confronts Chaos but is unable to defeat him and Chaos retreats. This story created the prophecy of the Warrior of Light, the Laws of Palamecia and its associated cycle, where the land of Palamecia calls new warriors from different worlds in the hopes that one of them will become the new Warrior of Light and defeat Chaos.Ĭhaos appears in the vicinity of Castle Cornelia, where several blanks give up on their prophecy to protect Princess Sarah. The monsters continually attacked Palamecia, and Cid repeatedly defeated Chaos and his forces until he grew too old and frail to continue the fight.
After falling into the town's oceans, Chaos lived on through his resentment of Cid, and his tainted soul began to create monsters out of water, collectively dubbed "Chaos" after him.Įffectively, Chaos became an inseparable part of Palamecia, existing as long as the world still does and returning in due time after every defeat. He did not return the village's water supply and took his anger out on Sarah, which drove her to attempt to kill herself in despair.Ĭhaos was killed in a duel with Cid, who'd been rallied to save Sarah by Voyce.
Sarah tried to be a diligent wife to him, but Chaos's suspicions kept him from realizing this, and he grew to hate Sarah and all Palamecians. In truth, Chaos had voluntarily pulled out of the finals because Sarah had begged him to not kill Cid, and promised to do anything he wanted in return.ĭespite the coverup, rumors abounded after the tournament and Chaos was ridiculed by Palamecia's populace. However, Cid was announced the winner by default, officially because Chaos had been too gravely injured in the semifinals. When Mid discovered this, Chaos ordered his men to kill him, and severely injure Cid before the final match. While it was ostensibly to prove the might of Palamecia's best swordsman, the tournament was rigged in Cid's favor so Chaos would kill him in the finals and win Sarah's favor. Cid was then entered into the tournament against his wishes by his brother Mid, who hoped Cid would use his victory as leverage to order the town's water supply returned. On Voyce's advice, Chaos organized a tournament for which Palamecians were allowed to create rules, called the Laws of Palamecia. Chaos, knowing Sarah was not truly in love with him, was not satisfied.Ī figure named Voyce informed Lord Chaos of rumors spreading around Palamecia, about Sarah's suspected affection for the town's best swordsman. Chaos cut off the village's water supply in retaliation, and Sarah relented. Lord Chaos was a village noble seeking to marry Sarah Cornelia, who refused his advances as she was in love with Cid.
