Remember this movie /x/? It's one of the most underrated films I've ever seen. Always has me on the edge of my seat. Can somebody who is well-read on the subject explain what the symbols on Detective Loki's hands mean? He also carries a Masonic Ring which is pretty self-explanatory but the tattoos are still confusing to me.
Also looking for similar movies to this one if you have it.
>Movie: Prisoners (2013)
>OP here
The detective also has another tattoo on his neck which I believe is the Star of Ishtar. Also, what are your opinions on the movie in general? I liked that it played a lot on the occult aspects and that it was very much like a symbol of the battle between the individual and the institutions.

those finger tattoos are zodiac signs

Affirmative, but which ones?

i dont know faggot, how about googling them and see which ones they look similar to?

One thing I always found interesting about the tattoos was the explanation by Gyllenhal. He actually stated that they mean nothing and were just a bunch of random symbols they threw on him, end of story. Clearly bullshit, so I wonder what they actually mean.

looks like a compass star

Using your advice, seems as if the zodiac symbols on the fingers are as follows
Index: Scorpio
Middle: Taurus?
Ring: Capricorn
Pinky: Leo?

wut?

Yeah, probably bullshit. Gyllenhaal did another film with the same director (Enemy) and all the actors had to sign a contract which prevented them from discussing the spider symbolism in the movie. I'm sure something similar was employed with Prisoners.
