In 1973, "Diary of Violence against Women" created a rape-revenge type movie. In 1978, "I Spit on Your Grave" became the representative work of this type of film. After that, movies of the same type emerged one after another. The common point is that after women are raped, Use anger as a weapon to take revenge on the perpetrator (such as the various remakes of "I Spit on Your Grave"), or as a judge to execute the death sentence for those who intend to harm women (such as " Baise " in 2000) -moi "), what all such films have in common is that women are raped - angered - revenge, from the role of the weak victim to the cruel perpetrator, although it looks very feminist and strong, but when they complete the revenge, the character It is twisted to the point that it can never return to normal life, but "Sonny's Advantage" uses the heroine Sonny to express his opinion: he does not oppose revenge, he will not use anger to distort himself, but only protect himself with fear. The most important thing is to live a normal life .
After Sonny was kidnapped, raped, tortured and killed a year ago, because his skull was shattered, he had to transplant his brain into a carnivore, so when others fought, they used brain waves to control the monster inside a human body, but she was just the opposite. The main body is used in battle. In life, brain waves are used to control the human body inside the monster body. According to the usual rape and revenge type routine, Sonny should control himself by anger to carry out revenge or judgment when he has obtained powerful power, but she did not. She chooses to continue her career as a beast trainer calmly, although she is still afraid in battle, and fears that she has been raped and killed in the past (such as falling to the ground, piercing, and suppressing in the following three pictures) This set of sexually suggestive shots are alluding to what happened in the past), but the fear of the past and the strong desire to survive in battle are Sonny's most powerful weapons.
So at the end of the film, the screenwriter explained his point of view with the help of the dialogue between Sonny and the female villain, and the last sentence is the title. Because many viewers who have watched rape and revenge movies have the same thoughts as the villain Dicko or the female villain, they think that anger and revenge are the key, and what they want to see is this revenge process. As for the heroine's life after the revenge is completed, who cares ? "People come into this world not with hatred, but with fear" "Fear fills your senses, you can see, hear, and taste" "Fear keeps me alive" "They all believe that angry little girls come out for revenge "They see what they want to see" "They don't see the essence of things" "Every time I step into that ring I'm fighting for my life and fear is my strength"
