Careful study of the DVD has caused me to come up with a sensational new theory about what is really going on in the film. Consider this blow-up of part of a screenshot:

Notice what I believe to be a metal hook or loop coming out of the top of the skull of the supposed nuclear victim. Clearly, the thing is a medical specimen, not a victim at all! Could it be that everyone is just hiding and have placed these skeletons all over the place as a cruel practical joke on our five "survivors"?
