In the movie Jacob is stabbed with a bayonette and lie dying in the jungle. That's real. While laying there he struggled to live and that struggle manifested itself in the chaos that went through his mind. The real success of the film is that we the audience participate in his death and the terror of his dying through the flashback sequences with Jezebel, the chiropractor, Sarah and Gabriel. When Jacob fought his death he was always in distress and always with Jezebel. She was a literary construct to torment him. When he would accept his death he was always happy, with the ones he loved such as the chiropractor, his wife Sarah, and of course his son Gabriel. The movie goes back and forth with his struggle to live or die. What makes it so successful is how the film imparts the terror and pain of a dying man onto the viewer. That's what did it for me. No other film in cinematic history has accomplished this task. Although Jacob's death took place in Vietnam the movie is NOT about Vietnam, hallucinogenic drugs, demons or psychotic ex-girlfriends.The character in the movie that explains the movie's plot - and literary mechanisms - is Danny Aiello's character the chiropractor. The chiropractor explains so eloquently that "if you fight your death you'll see demons tearing away at your life. But if you accept your death, the devils are really angels setting you free." Dante. The flashbacks in the movie are deliberately misleading deliberately terrifying. Jacob kept flashing back and forth between Jezebel and Sarah. Live or die. Jezebel was the dark manifestation of his fear tearing him away from the life he loved with Sarah. The metaphor of "The Ladder" is Jacob's ascension to heaven where he is met at the gate by Gabriel his deceased son.It's one of the most beautifully written screenplays of all time but for obvious reasons difficult to follow because of the chaos created by the flashbacks. What you have to understand is that in all likely hood Elizabeth Penas character never existed because he never made it back to New York. He had no life after Vietnam because he died in Vietnam. Jacob died on the table in Vietnam with a smile on his face after finally accepting and making peace with his life. What do the doctors say in the very last scene of the movie? "Put up a hell of a fight. The guy looks kinda peaceful." I hope this helps your understanding of the film. I cherish it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Neat *by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2023* Jacob's ladder is a great film. It has a lot of atmosphere with a great story. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This is my favorite movie. *by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2022* I'm an avid horror fan. I love the classics like Halloween, the trashy ones like the Saw franchise, but my favorites are the "elevated horrors" like the ones from A24. Jacob's Ladder was my first experience with this type of film. While it may seem tame compared to what we can watch today, it remains with me as an emotional and somber experience that blew my mind in high school. I hadn't seen many movies that try and make the view experience a complex emotion. I wasn't ready for it and found myself crying at the end of the movie. Maybe it could be chopped up to my lack of expectations for these types movie or younger age at the time, but with the emotions it made me feel, the film immediately jumped up to the top of my favorite movies ever and never really left. I don't watch the film often. I want it to keep its emotional weight, and constant reviewing would lessen it considerably. I still like to watch it every few years when I want an emotion gut punch. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/5725812-jacobs-ladder-blu-ray](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/5725812-jacobs-ladder-blu-ray) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
