The wealthy individual is nothing more than a footnote in this saga, because I suppose they would have reached a solution and made contact on their own if it hadn't been for the interference of a terrorist.
It’s just as I previously stated, I suppose none of them truly deserved to die, with the sole exception of Tyler. The man knew exactly what those guests were walking into, yet he failed to warn a single soul, which makes him practically an accomplice to the whole crime. Though, if I'm being honest, he didn't seem to have all his wits about him.

Anna is absolutely stunning 😍 She’s definitely climbing the ranks to become my favorite actress.
And Ralph? He absolutely crushed that role. His character is just top-tier. Honestly, I’m right there with the consensus—every single one of those women he took out totally deserved that ending.
Though, I don't really buy the idea that the cheeseburger is why he spared Margot. I think he would’ve let her live regardless because she isn't like the rest of them. In a way, they’re actually pretty similar. They both have those artistic souls where they just give everything and get nothing back in return. He saw that in her immediately, and that's why he let her go.
Did they actually commit any crime that would warrant the death penalty under American law?
I have laid it all out. I suppose the core point for both is simply reaching a sufficient level of technological advancement to make contact possible. It’s quite straightforward, really. And whether a wealthy individual provides the solutions in Contact isn't exactly a crucial distinction.
It seems somewhat reminiscent of what we saw in "2001: A Space Odyssey". There is this lingering message left behind, and I suppose it is up to human ingenuity and our current level of technological advancement to dictate how things proceed from here.
Honestly, hair color isn't even the point here, and I suppose Brigitte wasn't really defined by it either, since you can always just change your shade or throw on a wig. There are far more significant matters to consider than such trivialities 😁
Look, I suppose even though the movie leaned heavily toward trash territory, it was worth watching primarily because of Brigitta, and somewhat because of Arnold Schwarzenegger, much like how one might watch Baywatch just to see Pamela Anderson. I am not entirely convinced that she serves as any sort of major draw for the audience, at least not for us unrefined types.
I suppose none of the guests committed a sin significant enough to warrant their deaths, though perhaps Tyler might be an exception. Aside from that, I find the film to be quite eccentric.
M. Renfield decides he’s finally had enough of his centuries-old career serving as an accomplice to the Count Dracula, eventually seeking out a fresh start in modern-day New Orleans after falling for a tough, albeit somewhat perpetually aggressive, police officer named Rebecca Quincy.
