[I joked about this very serious horror movie, saying that I was not a devil enough, obviously eating a small belly, and should be sent to the cave in The Descent to let the monsters inside do a good job.] I have thought of the slogan "Where not skinny bites where - so easy!" This kind of miraculous weight loss technique like Zhou Xingchi in "Tang Bohu Dian Qiu Xiang" also me drifting fist, the principle of weight loss followed is to look at what is wrong with your own body, where it is not beautiful, where it is not cool. You have to bite harder and punch harder. 】
Yes, this is indeed a very serious horror movie, so serious that you have to hold your urine to watch it. But I'm not joking about describing it as a weight loss crash, and the taste of this film is heavy. For people with shallow stomachs and relatively poor psychological endurance, this film is like holding your urine and waiting for the result before doing the B ultrasound, enough to make you wet your pants in the middle of the movie - I refer to peeing, or vomiting. Let you cover your eyes or mouth, or bite your fingers and look at it with trepidation.
Everyone has their own inner piece of somewhere I blong People in industrial areas or bustling sex and cities for a long time must have a sense of depression. Everyone has a strong sense of curiosity, restlessly jumping from one box to another, climbing from one hole to another. I was very curious about the furniture of my own house (all the objects taller than myself) when I was a child, and I would climb into bed, then jump from bed to sofa, and then jump on the windowsill... One floor is higher than the next. I like to look at the road and imagine what it looks like on the other side of the sky. The stronger the sense of remoteness, the stronger the curiosity of the person. It is human nature.
From a material point of view alone, not everyone can satisfy their own curiosity in his life. Extreme sports are not for everyone, rock climbing, skydiving, diving, fighting monsters in claustrophobic dark spaces... Only a few people can experience it first-hand, some people can seek it in virtual games, and for most people, it can only be experienced in movies. Therefore, it is not surprising that such films that challenge people's psychological limits appear repeatedly.
From the "Devil's Cave" to this "Dark Invasion". The director places the actor in a claustrophobic dark space, surrounded by a group of meat-eating, slick monsters (monsters of good stature, worthy of the devil). Fight. All kinds of knives, guns, sticks, eighteen martial arts, each showing their magic, drawing a sword and shouting, "Take care of my seventh uncle" and then falling to the ground and dying. The monster didn't care to wash its hands and wear a bib to climb up and start biting. Blood splattered everywhere, and the liver and intestines were cut off. Cruel, cruel to the extreme.
However, after watching such bloody and cruel scenes, your stomach food churns up and down, washing your stomach as if. What really makes you terrified and horrified is not the monster that makes you vomit eat people themselves, but the fatal point of human nature exposed in the darkness, selfishness, escape, annihilation...
In the movie, Sam betrays his companion Rebecca to protect himself, and in the end, he dies, and his death is even more tragic and unseen than the previous one. Juno's soldiers killed her companion Beth by mistake, but instead of saving her, she escaped and caused the sister Beth, who was still breathing, to tell Sarah that the killer had a leg with Sarah's husband, and that it was the family of Sarah who killed her and abandoned her. The contradiction intensified to a peak. At this time, Sarah held aloft a large stone and smashed it at Beth, who was still breathing, ending her pain and satisfying Beth's wish not to live to see herself being torn apart by the monster.
The heart of the salad at this moment is truly "invaded by darkness". After Salad and Juno meet after a battle with the monster in the cave, in Salad's eyes, her companion Juno has become a monster under her axe. Sara held aloft her mountain axe and slashed at the thighs of her companion Juno, and then, like Juno abandoning Beth, Sarah left her to a group of besieging monsters...
This is not a regular American drama, at the end you have to give you a big reunion, all the fallen corpses have to get up to the audience to close the curtain. At least leave a living mouth, crawl out of the hole to tell the world about the nightmare he experienced, and inspire people to face it bravely. No, this movie is like a brutal punch to your heart. Knock everyone down. Beat you completely desperate to get up.
The director implies at the end that all of us are dead, and the remaining salad who has fallen to the bottom of the rock has a dream, dreaming that he has climbed out of the cave with human bones, rushed to his car, and woke up after a coma, seeing himself next to the fire, surrounded by darkness except the hiss of humanoid monsters. It was like the beginning of another dream.
Whether salad escaped from the cave is a suspenseful mystery set by the director. In fact, the focus is not whether Sarah escaped from the cave, but her soul has been fully invaded by the darkness of human depravity in the cave, after experiencing all kinds of betrayals and pains, even if she escapes from the cave, she will not be able to face the shadow of her own personal killing of Beth, let alone face her own extremely cruel crime of killing Juno, the real end of the world, not in the collapse of a whole, but the annihilation of an individual, that is, the mourning is often said to be more than heart death. So, whether her body escaped from the cave or not, her mind was destined to live in a dark cave. The difference between escaping and not escaping is only whether the body is destroyed or not. She couldn't get out of the hole, and she couldn't get rid of her inner demons.
