zombie in cave

The rhythm in the front is very long, and I was surprised a few times before I went down the hole. I wanted to cut the director. In order for the audience to watch it, I deliberately created this kind of scary point, which made me almost stop watching.

The atmosphere at the back is well shaped, the confined space, the dark environment, the bottomless dark cave, and the possibility of being stuck between the rocks at any time, and the possibility of collapsing, is very penetrating. A bit claustrophobic and uncomfortable to watch, but this kind of environment has added a lot of points to the film.

In terms of character creation, Juno actually overshadowed the protagonist, who was a strong woman from beginning to end. The protagonist feels very cowardly at the beginning, and the sudden change in the monster's lair is too abrupt. Juno does not go out without the protagonist, and the protagonist is the opposite. In short, Juno looks really miserable, and it might be better to explain it. And it turns out that when you're busy cutting people, don't approach from behind.
