Some bloody, cannibalistic tastes, but even more terrifying is the human nature that is thoughtful and fearful. The ending seemed to explain why the woman went down every month to deliver food to the children, but the manager also made it clear that there were no 16-year-olds here. But in the end, why didn't the male protagonist go up together, after so much suffering, he gave up hope of life at the last moment, and walked into the darkness with the dead old man?
A reasonable explanation may be that at the end of the platform, the male protagonist and the black brother guarded the cake, and they did not see any little girls. Everything was the imagination of the male protagonist, especially the black brother who said "cake is information". The next second is the little girl eating the cake; maybe here he is dead, and then the male protagonist is already in a trance, so only the cake (no corpse) is left on the platform. After that, the male protagonist of the two dreams may have died, and at the end, he walked into the darkness with his dead roommate. The cake was delivered, but the manager thought it was because people disliked having hair and didn't eat it, and blamed the chef for it. Another evidence is that the camera never gave the floor number after the 250th floor. And there is another scorched scene. Thinking about the fact that there was nothing to eat on the 202nd floor before, how could these two people hide their food and burn to death? If it was the food brought by the woman, it couldn't have stayed on the floor between them. That floor must be the corpse that was killed. So I'm leaning towards their bottom shortly after 250 floors, and the subsequent shots are hallucinations of the male lead.
But it's all just guesswork. Give me 80 points. Why I deducted a star is because the ending ended in a hurry and made it into something mysterious. There must be no better ending, right?
