Michael's mother

Compared with the plot of "Deadly Bend", it is too simple. In fact, the most terrifying thing in horror movies is the mental torture. The real physical pain is only for a while. Whether it is a quick death or a long-term torture, the physical "pain" that human beings can bear is limited and Self-protective, in contrast, the escape and imagination behind the scenes are much more intense than the pressure and pain of directly facing, fighting, and being killed. So smart horror masters will work hard on this, instead of putting you in a terrifying subject all at once. It's like making a documentary.
Almost the entire first half of the film is unaware that the characters are in an extremely terrifying situation. The family went out on a grand excursion. The old couple has been flirting with each other, the son-in-law is full of complaints, the young daughter-in-law is virtuous and affectionate, the girl is young and coquettish, she is too naughty and sensible, and there is a chubby doll. When the car was in an accident, two adult men went out to find a way, and the women and children drank tea and basked in the sun. Then the policeman who is usually the most arrogant and who I thought would perform well after the accident easily hung up. Doug just saw the weird pit, Bobby just saw the tragically dead dog, and then he fell and was miraculously found and brought back by his sister under the protection of the passionate girl. Throughout the film, Bobby is the first and strongest in fear. Instead of Brenda, she's already freaked out.
When Bob was on fire, they were just anxious and painful, and they didn't feel the fear immediately and strongly. There was fear, just the fear of the fire, not the arsonist. Doug killed his wife and daughter because of his mistake. Only then did the rivalry begin. Brenda was the first to actually touch the opponent. I thought that Iser, who was the first protagonist of the film, died the moment he saw his opponent, and I immediately expected that the film would not be too exciting. Then another intellectual and rational Lin, who I had high hopes for, also hung up very simply. At this time, Doug and Bobby, as the protagonists, really realized the existence of their opponents and began to work hard for survival.
Not the actor's fault. It was the director's mistake.
My favorite is Brave Bobby and Fat Doll. Doug was doing well except for the look at Brenda. It's just that it doesn't make people feel like it's because the director let the combative Bob, Iser, and Lin die too early. If he dies, the play can't go on.
The super strength and vitality of the mutants are nothing, but the IQ even higher than the normal person makes the judge depressed. The walkie-talkie, Tiaohu Lishan, etc. are all complained by the commenters. The Indian girl's admiration for the boy, the love for the baby, and finally the righteous killing of the relatives and the sacrifice of themselves to save others, hehe, I don't know what to say.
Like everyone I love that dog named Beast. A lot of people were uncomfortable with Doug closing the door when it was fighting mutants, and so was I. Later, I saw that it was not dead, and rushed to save people, I was very happy.
The last thing I want to say is that Iser, Michael's mother, is also a charming and coquettish old woman in this film. Her style far surpasses the two young beauties. Just like "Prison Break", she is still the fuse of everything, the disaster that kills everyone. The most innocent is Doug.
