Did anybody else think that the mom kissing her kid's arm at the end of Thirteen was a little creepy? And the hand-stroking? Idk, I know this is probably because were I in that situation, my parents would just have me locked up, but IMO it went beyond affectionate and into creeptastic at the end.
And the last scene, with the carousel screaming? That just didn't fit. I mean, I get what the director was trying to do there, but it didn't really work. It seemed like it was tacked on there and just didn't mesh with the film.

But also sweet, I think.
The intent, yes. I totally appreciate that it's actually a really lovely thing, it just looked all incestuous.
What scene was that?
The carousel bit? Very very end, after everything. The color starts coming back, Tracey wakes up, we fade to black only to fade in on her spinning on the carousel, and she starts to scream.
