Stop reasoning with logic. At first, I also wondered why the old lady disappeared, because I watched it in front of a suspense thriller. I don't like to read intros or any other intros before watching a movie. Looking at pictures and ratings. But comparing the old lady to the incarnation of the devil, disappearing is naturally normal. It is normal to enter the building without signing, because the security supervision is still quite strict, as young as a prostitute, and the female security guards can be caught fast walking, not to mention the old lady pacing slowly.
As for why the old lady steals things, it is probably because she was a thief in the past. There is a detail in the film. The shelf life of the pepper powder taken by the old lady is 87 years, which means that the old lady is already dead. The reason why I talk so much about the old lady is that the last disappearance of the old lady gives us the most doubts. In the end, if the old lady didn't appear anywhere, we can think that Tony has been feeling guilty since he hit and killed someone with his car, but he has never had the courage, to tell the truth, what kind of schizophrenia, and killed other people in the elevator.
Well, with that out of the way, let's go into some details.
The main purpose of the film is to compare the small space of the elevator to the heart of an adult. There will be devils such as "prostitutes, liars, liars, thugs" in our hearts. Come to think of it, even if you are not one of the above, there are many of us around us. In the eyes of the devil, these people are all to be punished, and no one can stop them, because God will not miss such people, God is merciful, He allows you to make mistakes, but if you know your mistakes and don't change them, Make another mistake and you will be punished by the devil.
The salesman is a liar, the security guard is a thug, and the prostitute (I misunderstood her, only after seeing such a beautiful face, since there is so much sinister hidden behind such a beautiful face, really damn it), although TONY killed his wife Son, he has been repenting, and finally confessed his fault in front of the police, told his crime, and of course, he was forgiven by the police (we can compare it to God). While the others have indeed been immersed in their crimes.
Also, the maintenance worker and the old security guard were punished and didn't die, just because they hindered the demon's actions.
We go back to the demons in our hearts, we may have all had thoughts of doing bad things or hurting others, but some people acted on them, and some people didn't. As long as you do bad things, and you are obsessed with it, you will be punished, which is often said that evil will have evil retribution, and no one can stop this kind of retribution. And this, I think, is what the movie itself wants to tell us.
Finally, a lot of people don't like the arrangement of narration in the movie. I feel that this is also the director's ulterior motive. From the beginning, he told us through the narration that this is a story, just a superstition story, and many people take it as A suspense movie is also because I didn't read this narration seriously. Superstition stories are not real, but they can be combined into real life, and then through the bloody scenes and people's fear and helplessness warn people not to do evil and have a heart of repentance. My Buddha is merciful, I ask the donor to restrain his suspense, put down the butcher's knife, and become a Buddha on the spot.
