Black and gray are the main colors of the whole movie. In the opening scene, a masked man in black broke into the window to rape the heroine, the heroine screamed horribly, the man in black threw the heroine to the ground and beat the heroine, and the cat's piercing eyes during the rape It sets the tone of horror for the whole movie.

The heroine was raped for the first time

A girl who was severely traumatized in childhood, the perfect father of the past killed 27 people and 6 animals for no reason. When her mother was almost sixty years old, she flirted with Xiao Xianrou openly with heavy makeup, and even announced at the party that she would marry Xiao Xianrou. In the latter part of the film, the heroine and the stranger appeal to the heart, mentioning that the mother was a nurse when she was young. It is hard to imagine what kind of mood the heroine who grew up in such a family environment has. By middle age, the female protagonist is already the owner of a game production company. She drives a luxury car and owns a big house. She has to take care of her unsavvy son and raise fresh meat for her mother. Such an extremely calm and indifferent person did not call the police after he was raped, and calmly told his friends that he had been violated at home; when his mother had a stroke, he even asked the doctor if his mother was pretending to be sick. Her ashes; she refused to see the killer's father for more than 30 years, but left the cruel words "I come to see you and you die" in the ears of his body. The heroine's various behaviors show her extraordinary rationality and calmness. The dark family of origin has made her lose the emotional excitement of normal people, and she is responsible for the family but lacks feelings.

the heroine's mother

Such an extreme woman reveals her strong and competitive character in all aspects. Emotionally, even after a divorce, he was still brooding about his ex-husband looking for a young girl. He went to the place where the girl went to work to openly provoke him. When it comes to taking care of children, he is full of helplessness to give birth to a simple-minded son, but in his actions he controls and ignores his son in all aspects. So much so that his son couldn't find a good job, and even tolerated his girlfriend's beating and scolding after his strange girlfriend gave birth to a child of different skin color, believing that the child of different skin color was his son. How could such a clever and thoughtful woman give birth to such a foolish son? It comes from her desire for control and lack of trust in everything. She subconsciously does not believe in anyone, including her son. She takes care of the mess of people around her with little emotion, rents an apartment for her son and girlfriend, and bridges the work of her ex-husband... ... She naturally didn't believe the police either. After she was raped, she still chose to live in the house where she was murdered, and planned to find out the murderer herself. She bought an anti-wolf spray and an axe, and spent a lot of money to hire the company's only supporter to investigate the perpetrator of the perverted animation video, but she still didn't escape the second rape, but this time she stabbed the killer's palm and pulled Taking off his mask, unexpectedly, the murderer pretended to take care of her male neighbor many times.

Almost most of the characters in the whole film are double-faced people in life. They are kind, friendly and righteous in front of them, but at the same time they are dark forces on the other side. The husband of the heroine's best friend, Robert, as a mutual old friend, has seduced the heroine to have a relationship with her many times; the heroine's male neighbor is a devout religious believer on the surface, but he is sunny and kind on weekdays, but he is actually a perverted sexual abuser. The wife of the male neighbor clearly knows her husband’s eccentricities, tolerates asexual marriage in the name of faith, and acquiesces to her husband’s crimes against the heroine; the supporter of the heroine’s company seems loyal to investigate for the heroine under the temptation of money The perverted animation video was finally revealed by the heroine that she was the producer of the perverted animation video. The characters are both ordinary and absurd, and I don't quite agree with the comments of many moviegoers that "the characters in the whole movie are perverts." In contrast to our real life, the film is just an exaggerated interpretation of reality. Looking at the crowded crowd, everyone has ordinary faces and multiple personalities. The complexity of life scenes makes it difficult to deal with life with only one face. Most people try their best to establish their own personalities. Most of the interactions of adults are politeness and appropriate distance. In the face of this lukewarm social interaction, out of human instinctive emotional and physiological needs, there are always people who are eager to seek Stimulating, revealing the true human nature on a completely different and even darker side.

Although the film finally ends with the heroine conspiring with her son to kill the perverted male neighbor, and reuniting with her best friend, it has a happy ending. But after these experiences, can they really still believe and love with all their hearts? I don't know, if I am the experiencer, I am afraid I will be a little more disappointed in the world.
