The last act of “Caveat” shows Isaac’s role in the death of the family. By flashbacks, we learn that Isaac was hired by Moe to lock his brother into a house basement, where his claustrophobia would lead him to suicide. As Isaac goes home, Moe’s brother must be warned that Moe is willing to hurt him. He already finds the cellar door locked.
But Olga could have confined her dad in the cellar as well. When Isaac and moe come home first, Moe puts a lampshade on the head in the catatonic state of Olga, showing his harsh views on her and suggesting that abuse of her has taken place in the past. This is perhaps also why Olga shoots the uncle in the last scenes of the movie and locks him in the basement.
But Isaac having no memory of him, Barret claims to be an old acquaintance. Why, too, is that old buddy who offers so much cash to hang out with a woman clearly too old for a “babysitter?” “There must be more than that,” Isaac adds confusedly. Suddenly, in jagged characters, the title card appears as ‘CAVEAT.’
Caveat quiz
Crumbing paintings whisper during the night, and a manmade glass-eyed toy bunny acts in a coal mine as a canary, banging an angry drum, as a warning, as a pretext that death is impending. Whenever the rabbit leaves to the town on his drums, Isaac looks furiously around the chamber, but nothing is there, empty rooms only and the doors left ajar. Also, you must try to play this Caveat quiz.
Isaac could not swim. “There’s a boat, isn’t it?” Barret brushes off. The house is a collapsing nightmare-scape of darkened light. The production design of Damian Draven is an enormous contribution. The interior seems to be back into nature, the water of the lake, the vineyards, the trees that surround it, all push to regain it. In this house, you can almost smell the dismal air. There is no place at first for the young woman. There’s one more “caveat,” and the first one’s worse. Barret tells Isaac to wear a leather harp linked to a lengthy chain during his stay; Isaac’s key is being kept out of reach. This will limit the movements of Isaac in the house and so contribute to quiet down Olga’s paranoia.
There are many ambiguities near the end of Caveat. Only when you think that you have realized everything, McCarthy shines in a different direction and shifts your perspective. Perhaps it’s not as simple as a game of cat and mouse to bind loose ends. This awful place has family secrets that are too horrific to reveal and have spilled more than just a bit of blood. In the house exist at least two ghosts. The first is Olga’s mother who, after shooting her, gave her dad and uncle rotting behind the walls.
About the quiz
The second is the dad of Olga, which Isaac or his mother could or may not have left. She’s still hiding a lot. That’s more than a bit lacking in their true version. Isaac is no better than an accident that Olga’s uncle Barret has alluded to.
It appears that, approximately a year ago, shortly before the memory-disabled event, Barrett was recruited to come and lock her father in the basement to Olga’s home and force him to lose his mind and kill himself. It seems a little confusing why he was hired to do it. We know that this was a former event he agreed to at least initially, based on attire and barley lengths. However, he didn’t go through it. It becomes quite evident in the end that Isaac was picked because, even if he could not recall him, he had unfinished business. Barrett needs all deceased or permanently imprisoned witnesses.
Barrett is harsh and tells volumes about what he and his brother have probably done to Olga and her mother. He is a predator who is not necessarily a sport. That’s why he places the lampshade on Olga at the start of the movie. His early discussion of Fox howls and teenage girls cries with Isaac has a disastrous qualitative effect, which questions everything. Maybe Olga’s uncle and father molested her and her mother were both furious? In any event, only the whole world finds out what he had done does not matter for his niece.
