      the truth of the facts

      Many viewers complained that the killer's ability was extraordinary. He couldn't be killed by bullets, and he couldn't be killed by falling from high altitudes. He was still slammed with two bullets and almost killed two strong young men and women. In fact, you are wrong to blame the director. Because the murderer is actually a Kryptonian, who came to the earth with hard work and fell in love with a human being, but this interracial love was ruthlessly interrupted, and it was still because...

      Surprising murderer

      I saw it from the middle, but I didn't see the first half.
          When the murderer's face was finally revealed, it really shocked me. The murder hostess also hid too deeply, without any clues. Fire axe hacked people, strangled a woman on the bed alive, tied a big man with an unknown liquid (blue, I don’t know what it was) to death, it didn’t look like a woman did it, she The strength is too great. Moreover, he was still an unkillable Xiaoqiang. He was shot in the chest and fell from the...

      Some urban legends

      Metropolitan legends (also often called urban legends, market rumors) are a kind of folk tales that are passed on endlessly through spoken language, media, and e-mails. People often say that a certain story happened to a "friend of a friend". Some stories have been circulating for a long time, and the content has not changed. For example: the spider treats a woman's carefully trimmed hair as a nest and kills that woman. Some stories reflect social reality to a certain extent. For example, a man...

      "The Next One is You": serial murders on campus in the 90s

      In the 1998 old film, the computer screen is huge. Like an old-fashioned TV set, the character’s mobile phone is also a big brother. Most of the time, the film takes place at night, and it is rainy night. The overall impression is a little messy, and some shots are more thrilling. For example, the man in black in the back seat of the car suddenly straightens up and picks up an axe to kill the driver; The shooting technique is also good, the audience will be misled many times,...

      It is still the standard IQ of horror movies to catch the foolish and bold heroine, and with such a textured beginning, the plot becomes more and more nonsense as it goes on, so just take a look. Unexpectedly, the handsome boy in the school newspaper later became a big name and a goddess of net bubbles! I also just found out that the story of the kidney cutting turned out to be passed down from the United...

      Parker: Hey. Who's my girl? Who's my girl?

      Parker: [Sasha blows him a kiss before leaving the party] That's my girl!

    • Brenda: Now, if I remove the gag you've got to promise me that you won't scream. Lord knows I had enough of that with Sasha.
