one step closer to the truth

It's in the same genre as "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "The Girl Next Door". According to me, it's called abusive.
Such movies are usually not suspenseful. It only takes 20 minutes to unfold the story. The 30th minute brushes past the truth, and the rest of the time is a process of endless struggle with the truth. The parties tried to enter the truth with various postures, angles, speeds, and strengths, but they could never get in, as if they were violating the Stone Maiden. In short, the more than 90-minute plot progressed on the fact that it was only one step away from the truth, which made the audience grit their teeth with hatred, and just wanted to rush to the screen to strangle the murderer or wake up the person involved.
Moreover, such films usually have at least three characters:
the first one basically knows the truth, but no one believes him, and this one is usually the protagonist, who is responsible for chasing the murderer and eliminating the evil.
The second knows all the truth, but dares not speak or cannot.
The third must be a downright idiot, always standing against the truth with unbearable zeal. Even if the truth is imminent, even a pig with zero IQ can see the truth with its navel, this silly water chestnut still turns a blind eye. The endless scolding in the cinema was dedicated to him. But to be honest, this idiot is actually the key player in the development of the plot. If he hadn't stirred up the situation like a shit stick, the murderer would have been revealed in the 30th minute, and the truth would have been revealed in the 40th minute. It's clear to the world, and the remaining 60 minutes of the movie will be unsustainable.
Moreover, this character also has a function, that is, when the truth is revealed, he will suddenly realize it with a sincere performance with a face full of stupidity. The audience was finally satisfied, let out a sigh of resentment, and scolded: You stupid water chestnut, I have known it for a long time. At this point, the movie ends, and the merit is complete.

    It is said that the child plays well, and personally thinks that she is old-faced, she belongs to her true colors.

    There are too many fake loli in the society, and too many male protagonists. The sad thing is that those who know the truth are always misunderstood, ps, compared to some things in reality, this is not scary or dead Wouldn't it be more terrifying to make your life worse than death, and he doesn't break the law? The children in it are all very good, not bad
