why was lowe trying to stop the lynch mob?


was it because he was scared he'd get killed or was it for moral/religious kind of reasons?

reply

He didn't want to kill them.

I know there wouldn't be a movie if he did, but I don't get why he didn't lock himself up somewhere when the moon was full. But like someone else said, once he lost his eye, he kind of lost his humanity with it.

reply

In the book he tried that...still didn't work out so well.

reply

How did he try it? Did he lock himself in a cage? What happened?

reply

Lowe skips town to Portland and checks into a hotel during the full moon.

reply

then he ended up killing that one guy from town that was there with his mistress anyway.
