One scene in particularly sticks out and that is towards the end of the film; the climax. As everything is building up to that pivotal moment where the protagonist gets his deserved justice, the camera moves around hectically, at a fast pace, as if to place us in that disarrayed madness. The lack of light with a nighttime setting creates an ominous, mysterious feeling to the setting. The angles that focus on the characters' face and the black, mysterious background creates an incredible compositional stress.
The final scene of this climax is what I believe to be most brilliantly done. After a killing rampage on those who imprisoned and attempted to murder him, Jim, the protagonist is faced with the task of killing the last soldier, to free Selena, another main character of the film and his potential mate. In the otherwise dark room, Jim's pale body appears on a ledge overlooking the room (seems to be casted upon with hard light - as it creates a heavy shadow) and soon jumps down and runs straight to attack the last soldier. This sudden action creates a frenetic pace that puts the viewer in the insanity of the moment, with the camera flashing from different angles to represent the chaos. There comes a montage with Jim brutally attacking the man, from medium long shot to medium close up to an extreme close up, back and forth with Selena just silently witnessing it from the corner. As the soldier's eyes are being gouged out (with a very disturbing close-up view), and he is letting out his final shriek, Selena runs to the other side of the room - obviously confused by the rage exhibited - to grab a machete. The camera then pans back and forth between her and Jim, who has now disappeared into the shadows of the room. The back and forth of the footage demonstrates Selena's indecisiveness on if she has to kill Jim or not (due to the potential threat of infection/rage exhibited) and it builds up to them meeting in the same frame, with Selena just stopping short to complete her action. With a medium close up on Jim's face and Selena's hair still visible in the frame, he quips 'that was longer than a heartbeat' - referencing an earlier statement by Selena and sealing the relationship that the plot had been setting up all along.
