It can be seen that there is a kind of compassionate contempt and contempt for his wife's hometown. It is this contradictory and complicated mood that changed the male protagonist's family life and led to the final fatal crisis. The protagonist’s weak and shy personality forms a huge contrast with the rugged and unrestrained customs of southern towns. Rod Larry wanted this feeling. He didn’t copy the old version and made a fuss about civilization, freedom and democracy. In this way, the new version seems to be simpler and more direct.

If it weren’t for the damaged roof of the warehouse, maybe the male protagonist wouldn’t even bother to look at these locals. In the eyes of the locals, these people from big cities are fresh and interesting. Both sides have a traditional and customary concept of communication.

The key to violence is Who can first realize that there is you but not me. When the incarnation of the law is killed by spiritual belief, then everyone will not be stunned. Survival is threatened at a minimum. The last thing to fight is the psychological bottom line and IQ. Both the new version and the old version are focused on the reversal of the final protagonist. The breakthrough of the new version is to aggravate the heroine’s violent scenes, and the male protagonist’s psychological transformation is more thorough. Look at the big beast traps. When you stepped on it, you took the initiative to rush to people's heads. In the end, all the reservedness and shyness were reduced to ashes with the raging fire in the warehouse.
