8 Horror Movie Mysteries That Will Never Be Solved
3. What Happened To Megan? - 10 Cloverfield Lane
10 Cloverfield Lane is a 2016 horror thriller that has loose links to 2008 found footage film, Cloverfield. This movie is brilliantly crafted from start to finish and fantastically shows the development of each of the characters, most notably of antagonist Howard and his descent into madness.
The majority of the film takes place inside of an underground bunker that has been designed by Howard to be used in the event of an apocalyptic-style situation; whether this be nuclear war, natural disaster, or an alien invasion.
This movie is full of different mysteries the further in you get, but the one that sticks out most prominently is the question of what happened to Howard's daughter Megan? He explains to protagonist Michelle that his wife took his daughter to Chicago many years ago and that he has not seen her since. Various things within the bunker point to Howard having held someone captive before Michelle and Emmett found themselves there. It is inferred that this in fact was not his daughter Megan, but rather a high school girl that went missing two years previous.
Of course this begs the question: what really happened to Megan?
