Time Cut ending explained: Who is the killer?

As a gamer who’s spent countless hours navigating through time-traveling games and slasher movie marathons, I can confidently say that “Time Cut” is a refreshing blend of both genres with a dash of nostalgia for good measure. The movie keeps you guessing until the very end about who the Sweetly Slasher killer truly is, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats.

I’m thrilled to share that I just discovered “Time Cut” streaming on Netflix! It’s a fantastic mix of classic horror-slasher elements, mind-bending time travel, and a generous dose of ’90s nostalgia – a perfect combo for any fan like myself!

At the conclusion of the film, there are two crucial points to resolve: who is the true culprit behind the Sweetly Slasher murders, and will Lucy manage to return to her own time?

Featuring Madison Bailey from “Outer Banks” and Antonia Gentry of “Ginny and Georgia”, this film tells the story of Lucy Field, a high school senior who inadvertently travels back to the year 2003 using a strange time-travel device.

As a gamer, I find myself in a unique position now. I have the chance to set things right – to rectify the horrors that unfolded twenty years ago when the Sweetly Slasher claimed my sister Summer among his victims during those chilling three days of terror. Four innocent lives were taken by this monster, and it’s high time we brought him to justice.

Altering the past might bring about far-reaching effects on what’s to come, yet could Lucy remain idle while Summer and her companions were in danger of being killed?

If you were left confused by the timey-wimey, let’s delve into the ending of Time Cut to explain all, including who the Sweetly Slasher killer is.

After the first murders, Lucy decides to change the past, consequences be damned.

After rescuing Megan Best, who goes by Emmy, from an attempted murder, Lucy, alongside Summer and the brilliant physicist Griffin Gluck (Quinn), devise a strategy to eliminate the murderer and repair the time machine so Lucy can return to her own era.

Yet, it turns out that the culprit was none other than a time-traveler; it’s the future incarnation of Quinn!

It’s revealed that the former outcast, with a nerdy bent, harbored deep-seated anger towards his high school tormentors, particularly Summer who had spurned his romantic overtures. As an adult identified as an incel, Quinn devised a time machine for a chilling purpose: to go back in time, assassinate Summer and her circle of friends, escape the consequences of his actions by getting lost in time.

Through her actions, Lucy successfully thwarted the implementation of his plan. Moreover, she managed to keep teenager Quinn away from becoming the Sweetly Slasher.

Pulling him towards Quinn’s garage, Lucy advances Quinn slightly into the future using the time machine. In a parking lot, they engage in a struggle, and Lucy manages to stab the assassin.

After utilizing the time machine, she travels back to the year 2024, where she learns an unsettling truth: by rescuing Summer in 2003, she herself has been eliminated from her original timeline. Earlier revelations had shown that her parents conceived her due to their sorrow over losing Summer, but they never desired a second child initially.

Lucy doesn’t seem overly concerned about it, as she feels right at home in the year 2003, alongside her sister and her closest companion, Quinn.

She’s chosen to embark on a fresh chapter in the 2000s, applying once more for an internship at NASA while also including songs by Hilary Duff and Avril Lavigne on her music player.

However, where does she reside at present? Can you imagine how she addresses the lack of records from before 2003 in this world? And, how is it that the authorities find this acceptable?

The movie doesn’t care, so neither should you!

Time Cut is now available to watch on Netflix.
