HIM Movie Ending, Explained

We were really excited about the movie *HIM* ever since we saw the trailer. A horror movie about football just felt right – the sport is already full of violence, legends, and ritual. Thankfully, the film, directed by Justin Tipping and produced by Jordan Peele, delivered on that promise. *HIM* takes you on a seriously unpredictable ride, and things get incredibly chaotic, bloody, and fast-paced as it reaches its conclusion. To help you understand everything that happens, we’ve broken down the ending of *HIM* piece by piece. We’ll explain what the ending means, what actually happens, and what becomes of Cameron Cade, the promising football player at the center of the story. Here’s a complete explanation of the *HIM* movie’s ending.

What Literally Happened In HIM‘s Ending? We Explain to Our Best Understanding

Wow, the ending of “HIM” is really something! The movie follows Cameron Cade (played by Tyriq Withers) as he trains with Isaiah White (Marlon Wayans), considered the best football player in the game. Each day of training brings Cameron closer to his dream of playing professional football – and teaches him a valuable lesson. Cameron is recovering from a brain injury after a strange attack, and he sees this intense training camp as his only chance to get back in the game. The final part of the movie takes place on Day 6, called “Sacrifice,” and brings everything to a head.

Cameron Is Injected with the Blood of HIM

The final scenes of *HIM* start with Cameron Cade regaining consciousness after the chaotic events of Day 5: Vision. The night before, he was at a strange welcome party with the football team’s key players, where his doctor was seemingly killed for advising him to escape. Following the unsettling party, Cameron wakes up covered in ice, with a bag of Isaiah White’s blood – first seen earlier in the film – being injected into him.

Cameron was severely injured, barely able to move after being torn up. Luckily, his trainer had left a syringe labeled “Run.” Cameron managed to reach it and inject himself, which seemed to restore feeling to his limbs. However, instead of running, he remained still.

Cameron Confronts Isaiah and Learns the Meaning of HIM

In a surprising turn of events, Cameron tries to upset Isaiah by destroying one of his football trophies, and then confronts him about the strange events that have been unfolding. Ultimately, Isaiah reveals the truth: a lineage of powerful, almost supernatural ability has been passed down through generations of players on the Saviors team. This power, originating from a series of secret, possibly demonic rituals or deals with mysterious forces, makes each player who carries it exceptionally gifted. It appears the team owners and management orchestrated this entire plan over the years.

This special blood transforms a player into the best of the best – known as “HIM.” However, there’s a catch: only one player can be HIM at any given time. Now that both Cameron and Isaiah have received the blood, they’re in a deadly competition. Only one of them will survive to continue playing football; the other will have to die.

The idea of the “Greatest of all Time” isn’t so simple, it seems. Before killing Isaiah, Cameron asks him, “What’s the opposite of a savior?” and replies to his own question with, “A nice guy.”

Cameron Rejects the Saviors’ Contract and… Kills Everyone at the End of HIM

Okay, so after Cameron offs Isaiah, it’s like he *becomes* him, but it’s not that simple. Every good demonic deal needs a contract, right? As the movie *HIM* wraps up, Cameron suddenly finds himself back in another messed-up, ritualistic scene. It’s super creepy – he’s paraded toward the team owners and his agent by these faceless cheerleaders and a masked band, and they all look like they’re just waiting to pounce on him.

Cameron discovers he’s been carefully prepared his whole life to fulfill a specific, powerful role. The film strongly suggests this group even orchestrated his father’s death to ensure Cameron continued playing football. Furthermore, they were definitely behind the head injury that allowed them to take him away and subject him to intense, manipulative training.

In the end, Cameron recognizes the owners’ true nature and the corruption they’ve brought to the sport he loves. He rejects their contract and unleashes a violent rampage, killing everyone responsible for the exploitation, including Isaiah White’s wife, Elsie, and the team owners. He uses the strength and skill he developed through football to become the ruthless force they wanted to control, resulting in a bloody and brutal showdown. Cameron spares only his agent from the carnage.

The Gods Don’t Like Not Receiving Their HIM

It seems you can’t just stop a ritual midway through. The powerful forces the Saviors were trying to control didn’t appreciate the incomplete ceremony, and someone had to suffer the consequences. Cameron’s agent was mysteriously pulled into the center of the ritual site and killed.

What Does HIM Ending’s Mean?

The ending of *HIM* is rich with meaning, but at its core, it explores how power structures are deeply ingrained in American sports, especially football. The film shows young athletes driven by ambition and the desire to succeed, often at a tremendous physical and mental cost. It also highlights the violence inherent in the game and the inequalities within it – how players, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, risk serious injury while wealthy team owners profit without sharing the risks. The final scene, with Cameron’s desperate struggle, powerfully illustrates all of these themes.

HIM‘s Ending Reveals What the Movie’s Title Means

We often say ‘pulling a Cameron’ means doing what’s right, even when it’s hard or tempting to do something you know is wrong – basically, standing up for what you believe in and being awesome while doing it.

Were Supernatural Forces at Work in HIM?

While Cameron’s injury, drug use, and self-deprivation *could* explain the strange visions in the movie, and the characters of Isaiah and Elsie *could* simply be psychopaths, the ending of *HIM* strongly suggests something more. It’s not just madness or a bad trip; the film clearly points to actual demons, gods, or other supernatural forces at play. *HIM* is a truly supernatural horror film, and that’s what makes it so compelling.

What Happens to Cameron Cade After the End of the Movie?

The ending of the movie HIM probably raises some questions about Cameron Cade’s fate. However, not all of those questions will be resolved.

Does Cameron Cade Die at the End of HIM?

Despite the movie ending in a place that feels like heaven, Cameron Cade is shown alive and well when the credits begin. He does not die in the film.

Does Cameron Cade Get to Play Professional Football At the End of HIM?

The big question everyone’s asking is whether Cameron Cade will be able to play professional football after everything that happened in *HIM* – the head injury, the murders, and the disturbing rituals. Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing for sure.

Does Cameron Cade Go to Jail at the End of HIM?

We hope he’s not being targeted again. There were people who saw the murders, but it’s unlikely they’d want to reveal they were involved with a dangerous cult operating in the desert. It’s always hard to make sense of these kinds of supernatural events afterward. Hopefully, the demons will take care of everything and leave Cameron alone.

What Does it Mean That HIM’s blood Is Still Inside Cameron?

Cameron argued that Isaiah unfairly benefited from having the blood of HIM within him. However, players still seemed to get injured and lose games even with the blood. This led Isaiah to wonder if the blood actually made a difference. Furthermore, because Cameron didn’t finish the ritual, there are potential consequences for the blood remaining inside him. Will this bring punishment or favor from the football god? We’ll likely find out in the next installment-just kidding! Some mysteries are better left unsolved.

I hope that explanation clarified the ending of *HIM*. Now go back to the theater and enjoy another viewing! Let’s go!
