Benson starts the movie dead and ends it as a ghost, Randy starts the movie as a ghost and ends up dead
#Let me elaborate: Benson is dead and he knows it#If he died in the beginning of the movie nobody would really care#Not even his Mum who doesn't even question when he comes home way earlier than he's supposed to#And he knows that he knows he's dead#Which is why he does the things he does#Randy on the other hand WISHES he was dead#He's trying to be non-existent. The invisible boy. A ghost#Because of he was a real boy he'd only mess it up#And THEN!#Benson shoots everybody except Randy because he SEES him#He sees the ghost in the corner of the room wishing he was dead#And he takes Randy with him#And Randy has never felt more alive than when he's with Benson even if it's scary#Both because of Benson but also because he's scared of having to be somebody#And for Benson Randy is the one thing keeping him alive#As long as Randy looks at him and listens to him Benson's still breathing#And when the Diner scene happens and Benson actually dies he doesn’t#Not really. Because he changed Randy so irrevocably that he's gonna haunt him forever#Even if everybody else forgets him Randy will never. So he becomes Randy's own personal ghost#And Randy dies when Benson is shot. Because the only person who ever saw Randy just died.#And he'll never find a person who'll dig his claws as deeply into him as Benson#So the only time he truly felt alive where with Benson and now Benson is dead. And Randy is too#In a way the end even suggests that Benson lives on inside Randy (the jacket/the plushie)#As if Benson possessed him and is now living through Randy#While Randy isn't living at all without Benson#the passenger#stockroom syndrome#I was sooo scared of running out of tags lmao#Anyway does this make sense
