The film is an excellent genre film, which shows fresh vitality, a different kind of gender political writing and strong visual impact. Its plot frame is very similar to the sexual violence-Revenge sub-genre films such as "Irrevocable" and "I Spit Your Grave". The director uses a thorough female perspective to give the film a theme that is different from other sexual violence-Revenge sub-genre films. It is not as eager to show the heroine's extraordinaryness as usual such films, in order to emphasize the unfairness of being violated. The first half of the film depicts the heroine's characters as thin as paper, but in the second half, the director uses extreme stylization to draw a clear and sharp dividing line: women can be seductive and sexy, but they cannot be hurt. Reason. It is precisely because of such a clear declaration that the seemingly weak characters are handled, as if they have a voice of a generation of women. The heroine survived a catastrophe, and the pink dress was burned to death-this kind of surreal bridge has become a metaphor of rebirth intentionally or unintentionally. The film has a strong sense of pain, and the bloody scenes may make the audience feel physically uncomfortable. In addition, it also reveals a rough sense of humor that blends with violence from time to time.

The first half of the film really can’t stand scrutiny, but the director’s visualization is very good. The vividness of the audiovisual language partially offsets the abruptness brought by the early BUG, whether it is a green apple that was eroded by ants after a bite, or The close-up of Dimitri biting a chocolate bar can find the corresponding meaning in the subsequent plots. In addition, the various colors of the villa and the light of the cave, the stunning sound effects, and the alienated animalization of the male protagonist are all interesting points that cannot be ignored from the perspective of the female director.
