It's not scary at all, maybe my expectations are too high, and I feel normal after reading it. It's rather obscure, and many Western cultures are not accessible, the story is not strong, and it looks a bit boring. It is probably through a few cases that show the psychological changes of the protagonist, from the murder of passion at the beginning to the need to kill again to obtain spiritual pleasure to suppress the pain, and then to artisticize the killing behavior, to regard large-scale massacres as art, and anti-Christian thinking to come. Justify your perversion. Obviously it is Satan in the world, but he has been trying to get close to heaven, and of course the final outcome is to fall into hell.
From the beginning to the end, the protagonist is full of emotions and illogical. He is really "mentally abnormal", so all those killed by him are "stupid people".
The two most impressive episodes are hunting his wife and children and Simple screaming and shouting for help and no one responds at all. Usually, children in hero films, disaster films and crime-related works are always rescued. Even if they die, there will only be some side reminders, but this one not only shows the scene of hunting two children, but also gives the face of a "fake smile" child. A close-up, very cruel. The part on the phone with Miss Simple was quite romantic, and Miss Simple's breasts are indeed very beautiful, I feel a little shy thinking that xz has also seen this part...
The most comfortable picture is the close-up of the protagonist's room and desktop, and the obsessive-compulsive disorder is satisfying. Then there is the bird's-eye view of the crow and his wife and children, and the final completed picture of the house. There is a cruel beauty, the disappearance and freeze of life, and it is displayed as a cold artwork. Makes me suspect that the director is also a pervert and examines the darkness within himself.
