In The Tall Grass Plot Recap
The film opens with a very Jeepers-Creepersy premise as we follow a brother and sister pair, Cal and a heavily pregnant Becky who stop during a sweltering car journey to rescue a boy who seemingly appears to be lost in a field. They soon realise that something is amiss and this field of dreams quickly turns into a field of screams as the two discover that the grass is hiding a terrible secret.
In The Tall Grass instantly gripped me and watching the pair wander around the unforgiving maze that purposely twisted and changed in order to manipulate them was harrowing throughout. It’s a unique horror setting and whilst concepts like this, where nature is the enemy, have been discussed in films like The Happening, In The Tall Grass certainly feels a lot less laughable and far more terrifying.
Book Differences
Now those who’ve read the book may be surprised by just how close to the source material that this story sticks with the initial opening being pretty much the way things happen in the work by Stephen King and Joe Hill. Though the film carries on after the events of the story at some points, I think fans of the work will definitely lap this up and find the changes engaging. This fleshes out the main storyline far beyond what we have in the book and feels like the next logical step.
After some time passes Travis Mckean, Becky’s baby’s father arrives at the grass after searching for the pair. He too unwittingly enters the grass and similar to Cal stumbles across Tobin who seems to know him and says he knows Becky. He leads her to her dead body and disappears awaking the next morning to find Tobin shouting to him.
The Grass Explained
Similar to the grass itself, time in the area is able to move and bend with those from the future pulling in people who exist in the grass in the past. The constantly altering the perspective of the film may be confusing without the prior knowledge that time in the grass moves completely differently to how we as humans perceive it but it does follow certain rules.
The Grass is able to alter the past whilst retaining elements of the future and this is how Travis is able to be pulled in, then pull in Tobin who pulls in Becky who eventually pulls in Travis.
In The Tall Grass Ending
This leads to Ross killing Natalie and beating Travis after he refuses to touch the rock and in my opinion, the movie is a metaphor for how those who believe that they have the answers are sometimes willing to use violence in order to try and force others to see it. We as a species are all wandering through our own grass, lost, with no real idea of what is going one whilst others try and force us to see things our way. None of us can really see the wood for the trees yet some think they know better and similar to the group in this, we have to be careful about who we defollow.
In The Tall Grass Ending Explained
If they had made the choice to escape they could have but they have constantly made the wrong one and therefore the grass is able to hold them in it’s web. Tobin is the main signifier of this as we see certain versions where he takes on a twisted and dark persona and other versions where he is a brighter, happier being. This to me solidifies that children are our future and the way that we lead them in a way with choices similar to how Becky rather than through force, there will be a more positive outcome.
Travis too realises that he made the wrong choice in abandoning Becky and she realises that she too did by wishing to give her baby up for adoption. The grass is a representation of going through hardship and coming out better for it on the other side by making the correct choice.
