I feel like there is a main theme in the underlying commentary and depictions of deer in this movie but cant quite figure out what it is.
The way chris's mom was in a car accident and left for dead and them hitting the deer with the car and chris seeming like he wanted to do something but leaving it for dead. He had a dream about that deer too. The dads comments about the deer were obvious allusions to racism but i think theres deeper meaning there too. Plus he killed the dad with the deer head/antlers which was an odd choice of weapon. Theres something there with the deer.
Also, seems like a lot of people are bringing up plot holes or wondering why this or that happened the way it did. Remember there is an underlying social commentary and a lot of things that may not seem to make sense litterally may be to make sense in the allegory that is being laid out.
