I interviewed two police officers who handled the case, the former hotel manager, YouTube bloggers, the repairman who found the body, historians and other related figures. The narrative is a bit complicated, and the content will be more refreshing if it is filmed in two episodes. Regarding the Lan Keer case, the film tells a lot of coincidences. For example, the Lan Keer case is very similar to the plot of "Ghost Talk"; Lan Keer’s English name is Elisa Lam, and Lan Ke’er just disappeared and tuberculosis occurred in the slums. The drug for tuberculosis detection is Lam-Elisa. Lan Kerr’s university happens to have a tuberculosis research center. Lan Kerr is also suspected of being poisoned by human flesh; enter the bookstore in Los Angeles where Lan Kerr frequents in Google Maps. The related name was directly located at Lan Keer's cemetery. . Some things are really shocking coincidences, and you have to accept them.
Lan Kerr has a mental problem. This cannot be ignored. The film makes it clear. She shared a room with a few girls. Because of her weird behavior, she scribbled notes on her roommate’s bed and refused to open the door to her roommate. Finally, she was invited away by the hotel and moved into a separate room. Young people who go abroad often live in youth hostels in order to save money. 4-10 people live in one room. It is obvious that Lan Kerr cannot get along with his roommates peacefully. She opened her arms in the hotel lobby, shouting "I'm crazy, and Los Angeles is crazy". She participated in a concert in Los Angeles, scribbled chattering notes, and was asked to leave by security personnel, which can all show that Lan Keer has serious mental problems. Her Tang Bu Hot blog revealed that she took a variety of drugs for mental disorders, and she had expressed suicidal thoughts.
The police believed that Lan Kerr drowned accidentally because of bipolar disorder, that is, bipolar disorder. He did not take medicine and was tenable. All things that seemed weird could be reasonably explained. For the so-called "strange" elevator video, Lan Ke'er entered the elevator with ease at first. She didn't wear glasses and couldn't see the elevator buttons clearly. She accidentally pressed the Door Hold button and the elevator door didn't close. She suspected that someone was following her. Gradually, she became nervous, waving her arms outside the elevator, and her feet were soft, almost unable to stand. It was obvious that she was ill, and it was easy to get sick as soon as she was stimulated. Then it is very likely to go up to the top floor. After all, the elevator is on the 14th floor, which is one floor behind the top floor. Regarding the elevator video covering the time code, the police said that they wanted to hide some information; the video was slowed down in order to see Lan Kerr more clearly. These police officers explained in the film.
The blue Kerr in the water tower was naked. The police explained that Lan Kerr took off his clothes in order to reduce weight and prevent sinking. In addition, long-term low temperature can also cause abnormal internal conditions and people will take off their clothes.
In fact, when the maintenance worker found the body in the water tower, the cover on it was opened. This fact can almost rule out the murder.
The Lan Keer case attracted so much attention and produced many interpretations, which is also a coincidence. This coincidence is that Lan Kerr fell ill under the elevator monitoring, which makes people feel incredible. If the elevator did not capture the "weird" elevator video, would people still be keen to discuss this case?
Backer Mobid is a death metal singer. His lyrics are about killing a girl, and there are black dahlia pictures behind his photos. They are all coincidences, but they have been over-interpreted by Internet detectives. Mobile was subjected to crazy online violence and even suicidal, and was also a victim in the case. When Lan Kerr disappeared, how did this buddy go to Los Angeles to kill someone when he was performing a concert in Mexico?
Someone analyzed that the murderer had given Lan Keer psychedelic drugs, but why was it not detected in the report released by the police? It is also said that the police's manipulation of the video is deliberately shielding someone, which is close to a conspiracy theory.
Finally, the infamous Cecil Hotel has ceased operations. It was acquired by a New York consortium in 2017. It is said that it will be rectified and plans to build a bar and shallow swimming pool on the top floor.
