      Maybe it's a combination of multiple people

      Do not rule out the possibility of a gang committing crimes, why was the male protagonist hit when he stopped the police car? From the distance from the male protagonist to see the police car, it is completely possible to stop the car. It is more suspicious to be hit. During the police rescue process, the camera is very strange. This is also a point. Also, the ambulance should retreat first. The first reaction should be to withdraw, but still so domineeringly grabbing the witness, is it really...

      Bloody legacy. . . Miserable Night Demon. .

      No wonder I always felt like there was a shadow of Chainsaw Horror when I watched it. After reading it, I checked the information and found out that the director was the screenwriter of Chainsaw Horror, and the script of this movie was also jointly written by his old partner. Inheriting the style of Chainsaw Horror, it is very bloody, and there are also many exquisite killing mechanisms. But the anti-No. 1 is a bit miserable, and it is destined to not have the popularity of Jigsaw. The mask is...

      It's a human story.

      Don't reveal your happiness, family or wealth in front of outsiders, it will attract the coveting and jealousy of outlaws, so they will do anything to take it or destroy it.

      We don't know why the male protagonist's wife is in debt, but this kind of woman who can only have children is irritable, bankrupt, selfish, and stupid. It is not gospel for any man to marry such a belief.

      The cops are as stupid and sluggish as ever, as in any movie before, as in reality, belatedly and...

      frightened me...

      I didn't go to the cinema all summer. I had time to take a look today, and found that many blockbusters in the summer archives have already been offline. Due to time constraints, I chose the "The Collector" level R... So I made psychological preparations, but I was still scared...

      The director was filming "The Chainsaw", and the male lead seemed to be playing "Dirt" . Anyway, I haven't watched it yet...

      The production of the film is very hard, many scenes feel very real, and...

      Shanzhai Saw is as wonderful

      Shanzhai Saw is just as wonderful, but the Night Demon here lacks the elegant temperament of Mr Jigsaw, relying on a simple obsession with collecting human bodies. So the killing props are a bit crude, just put a few animal traps to fool the audience? However, some creative ideas are still amazing, such as the fire glass bottle burning cockroaches into the body... Josh Stuart is tortured enough. BTW, Josh Start is the husband of the beautiful JJ in Criminal Minds, and it's a pleasure to see him...

      A must-see movie for masochistic thriller lovers. Although it is not as good as "SAW", the sensory stimulation is still strong. The only thing that has not been explained clearly is what the collector's motive is. There should be a sequel~waiting for...

    Movie plot

    A Kin (Josh Stewart), a man with a criminal record, supports his family by a job of deworming, but this thin salary is nothing short of a drop in the money for a huge loan and a wife and children waiting to eat. In desperation, he strikes up the idea of his employer, jeweler Mike Chase (punk) . At the time when the Chess were on vacation, Akin found his friend Roy (Robert Weisden), who was going to steal the jewelry from the Chess...

    Background creation

    The plot of the film was jointly conceived by Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton. At the same time, Dunstan will be the director for the first time. Initially, they only collected 10,000 US dollars of filming funds, but they decided to take the lead in filming "The Collector". In particular, Jerome Dillon, drummer of the "Nine Inch Nails" band was hired to set up the sound effects of the film. And investors give the crew pure freedom to...

    Evaluation action

    Director Marcus Dunstan directed it for the first time. He is not stingy about the sway of plasma. From the beginning to the end, there are many seductive passages for plasma lovers. It is a horror movie that fully reflects the style of R-rated movies.
    When the publicity resources were not strong enough, the main actors were basically not well-known, and the subject matter was so partial, IMDB's 278 viewers scored 6.6, and YAHOO's 316...
