I recall watching this in the theatre getting to the ending and being reminded of the 1944 movie Lifeboat (A.Hitchcock)-the inspiration was very apparent to me. I also listened to the audio drama, which was more painful than the films ending due to all the product placements.. something alike to...when Billy starts freaking out in the grocery Isle and "cheer Bill, have some Velveeta Shells & Cheese, its the best side of dinner."
