The common theme in the films is the love between Caroline (Cain’s twin sister, who is also Satan’s daughter) and the versions of Adam, all the way to the perfected last Adam, who arrived out of order, somewhere in the middle of history, as the Messiah.
“The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.” (1 Corinthians 15:45)
“I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.” (Revelation 1:17-18).
“Look at my king all dressed in red. I bet you five dollars he’ll kill you dead.” – “Iko Iko”
“Satan reasons like man, but God thinks of eternity.” (Déjà Vu 2006).
