Appropriately creepy. What's real? Are you crazy or is it all just a big conspiracy to make you think you are? Reminded me of Angel Heart from 1987, which was set, coincidentally in 1955, the year after Shutter Island. Near as I can tell there is no Shutter Island in Boston Harbor.
Update: talking to Ross this afternoon about the movie, he suggests that the plot could have gone the other way, that is, it was a conspiracy and our hero wasn't crazy. They could have used either ending, but they picked the stupid one. Which makes me wonder whether it is possible for someone to be precisely that crazy. I mean, has there ever been a real case anything like this? There are delusions, and there is denial, but you can usually tell pretty easily when someone is a bit off. This guy though, his delusion is really detailed and totally complete. Makes me think Ross was right, and they used a cheap trick to fashion the ending of this movie.
