The beginning of the story is quite fascinating. A man covered in mud and blood wakes up in a dead man’s pit, but forgets how it is and loses his memory. There is a pistol and a pistol beside him. A note, plus a cast rope, these elements can be said to have made a good start for the story, making people think that this should be a relatively large production. However, the later development of the story inevitably made people a little disappointed, because such a "big" scene was almost invisible, and it was the few people who played and performed it, and it was obvious that it was handled like this because of insufficient funds.
There are many plots in this film that are not very clear. Many treatments make people think that this is a zombie movie, but it is not a zombie. You don’t know what it is. You don’t know why you must bite. After biting, people will not become zombies but will they be infected or die. Whether it will become a zombie and so on after it is unclear. There is also a bug. The characters in the film have lost their memories, and the extent of this loss of memory is not clear. Since I have forgotten my name, I have forgotten who I and others are, but why I didn’t forget when I drove, and why I didn’t forget when I shot. , I have not forgotten the panic of the unknown, so the "forget" shown in it is not detailed or specific, and it should be more specific. These shortcomings should be the screenwriter's problem.
Although the film is rated B, it has many advantages, such as the enthusiasm of the actors and production staff for the film. The actors are very active in their performances. You can see the shadow of the theater actors from their eyes. Maybe their pay is not high or even said. There is no remuneration. Everyone is working together to make a movie. The spirit is commendable. And the social environment after everyone’s memory loss is very interesting. When our original identity disappears, we will enter an environment where everyone is equal. We have various possibilities to continue to get along, and the relationship between us may arise and before the memory loss. Different changes, and we still have not disappeared. This is a pretty fun idea. It can be seen that the director wants to express this meaning. Another good point is that the director has a good grasp of the use of the camera, rhythm and sense of reality. If the funds are in place, I believe he will shoot more beautiful pictures. This reminds me of Youku’s youth director support program, which allows some directors who just debuted to make a short film. The script of the short film may be very simple, but it depends on the director’s use and control of the camera. Qualified to shoot regular movies. If you follow this rule, the film director is fully qualified for this task.
