What's bad is that it doesn't understand the meaning of the movie

The director has too many metaphors. Below, I will explain and supplement the most concerned points.
The story begins. Why did Will kill the coyote?
The tone of the story’s development is pretty good. It’s in the evening, and the sky is darker, but it’s not gloomy. It's excusable to hit a coyote. It was unexpected that Will beat the coyote to death with a car wrench. Some viewers felt like this. This should be the foreshadowing of Will's accident, at least it shows that this person has a tendency to violence. In fact, this is a misleading of the director to us, and it is also the director’s cleverness, so that in the subsequent plot, we have sufficient reasons to believe that Will is a violent and suspicious person, so as to promote the plot. development of. Then his real purpose was to make the coyote die less painful, and Will had to choose this most direct method. These behaviors also reflect the theme of this film, that is, since the contradictions are irreconcilable, don't try to let tragedy break out in the most gentle or in the name of love, otherwise this is the deepest blasphemy against love. The topic will be discussed later.
Lezhong car gradually drove towards Yi Deng's current home in the stressful background. The music is full of anxiety and fear, as if Will knows that this night is destined to be extraordinary.
Why did Yi Deng invite Will to the party?
Will went to his ex-wife’s house to attend a party, but he suspected that his ex-wife and her old and new public had bad intentions for this party. In fact, they had a son, but died in a tragedy. The two ex-wife left for no reason. Years later, the Buddha statue came back as if nothing happened. Yi Deng invited Will to come, on the one hand to show him that he had come out of grief, but in fact, the bigger conspiracy was that he participated in the cult to complete the cult. Some supreme will-to kill these people.
In order to kill these people who came to the party, why didn't Yi Deng work so hard to organize the party?
If you watched the computer video that David showed you, you probably still remember that the love and trust mentioned in the video were meant to poison these people in a quiet and peaceful environment. But when Gina foamed at the mouth, Pruitt shot and killed Miguel who was giving Gina an artificial resuscitation massage, and the whole thing was completely revealed.
Why can I always see David locking the door?
Because to ensure the success of the plan to kill these people. Not to close the door to promote what he calls the truth.
Why was Will able to see Saidi's deliberately naked lower body?
In fact, it only promotes the role of the plot, accompanied by echoes with the theme.
Why are all red lanterns on the hills Will and Kira face when they shake hands at the end?
Where are the most red lanterns and look the most festive? Please make up your own mind with the last sentence of my first question.
In short, this movie tells us two aspects: 1. Stay away from cults. 2. Since the contradiction is irreconcilable, don't try to let tragedy break out in the name of the gentlest or in the name of love.
