Would she really be scarred for life?

Question

I was watching The Texas Chainsaw Massacre with a friend and the girl Erin played by Jessica Biel, well my friend said at the end of the movie that she has to be scarred after all she went through. And at first i didn't really know what my friend meant by that but she said that mentally she wont be normal after that or something. What does that mean?

Answer 1

She means Erin will have those horrible memories locked with her forever. They will never stop haunting her.

If I went through that I would probably be too scared to leave my house... or freak out/breakdown when I see a saw.
