With the way that message comes across in the film, I wouldn't be surprised if it's intentional and Alex Garland was influenced by Heart of Darkness. The film definitely has a Lord of the Flies-feel, with everyone capable of horrendous actions under the right (or wrong) conditions and circumstances.
