After reading several netizens' speeches on the plot, I will briefly talk about my own thoughts and welcome everyone to communicate.
Character introduction: Little girl: The little girl imprisoned by the old man, the fake Megan in the photo.
Old man: Uncle BT
Hostess: you know
Male lead: the third person in the bunker
According to the timeline, the implied plot of the film is as follows:
1. The old man himself has a love (bian) female (tai) complex. Maybe he did bad things to his daughter Megan, so his wife finally chose to take her daughter to escape. Of course, it is also possible that the old man fantasizes about the destruction of the world all day long, and invests all his money in the construction of the bunker. After his wife and daughter went to Chicago, the old man was unwilling to be lonely, so he planned to imprison a little girl for fun.
How did it do it? I guess it was the old man who generously invited the little girl to visit the bunker and used her kindness to ask her for help. Considering the airtightness of the bunker, the room of the air filter can only be closed from the inside. This requires a thin little girl to crawl in through the vent and lock the window from the inside. Because it was an acquaintance or an old man who offered to pay, the little girl did not take precautions. Unfortunately, he was controlled after he came out again. Later, the little girl had certain conditions for free activities. In order to report for self-help, she chose to go to the air filter room again and engraved on the skylight, hoping that someone would see it outside, leave earrings under the ladder, and then return to the bunker.
The old man should be unaware of this process, otherwise the outside air was not polluted at the time, and the old man could completely erase these traces outside, and he would not send the female protagonist to repair it so easily. It can be seen that the old man did not know the distress signal in that room.
2. Regarding the death of the little girl, I speculated that it was suicide, or was beaten to death by the old man in a vain attempt to escape. The old man shouldn't take the initiative to kill the little girl. After the little girl died, the old man could only look for new substitutes, so he ran into the heroine on the road (note: the body was similar to the little girl before) and brought her back to the bunker.
It is worth noting that the heroine was not brought back to the bunker when the earth was attacked, but slightly earlier than that time.
It can be said that this is a coincidence. Originally, this was just a story of detention in a basement, but the aliens suddenly attacked the earth, and there was no way for the old man to live in the bunker. Why is this speculation? First of all, the heroine of the movie heard the sound, it was the main male who forcibly entered the bunker and had a fight with the old man and knocked down the shelf, indicating that the attack happened not long ago, the old man had just entered, and the bunker was about to be completely closed! The hostess has just woke up because of a car accident and has no idea how many days she has been in a coma. Another detail is that the heroine’s legs were tied with chains before, because everything was normal at that time, and the heroine would run away when she woke up suddenly, but then when an attack occurred, no one could get out, so naturally she didn’t need to. Leggings up. Conversely, according to the old man's statement, if he was flustered and bumped into the heroine when the attack occurred, then when he was brought to the bunker, it should be close to the time when the heroine arrived, and there would be no plot of the shelf falling down. And there is no need for leggings.
3. Let's talk about the hostess's room. So why does the expensive bunker have such an empty concrete house? You must know that the whole bunker is only the old man and a decent house. This concrete room is hidden in the innermost part of the food warehouse, which was specially made for imprisoning little girls or other people. It can be seen that the old man has been planning for a long time, regardless of whether there are aliens or not, he intends to imprison the little girl in it for fun.
4. Let's talk about the male lead. His death is inevitable, regardless of whether there is a reason for the plot. First of all he is an intruder, an uninvited guest. If there is no attack, the old man imprisoned the hostess in the concrete room to satisfy his sordidness. With an attack, it is logical that you can live with the heroine in the bunker. Therefore, he was extremely tired of the topic of leaving the bunker. For example, when the male lead said at the dinner table that he would live in the bunker for several years, the old man was particularly angry. In fact, he is willing to live with the heroine instead of going out for the rest of his life.
The first time the old man got angry at the dinner table was because the heroine "mooded" the hero, deliberately touched his hand, and eventually killed the hero. It was not because the hero said he wanted a gun. The underlying reason was that the hero said that he wanted to be equal to the old man. Status, let the heroine respect him as much as the old man, which is a taboo of the old man. You must know that the possessiveness of the old man is not generally strong, so the hero is NG.
5. I won’t say more about the old man who loves the young girl. There are too many examples. The most important point is that the heroine wanted to escape several times, and the old man went crazy several times. But what is the reason for being angry? It is the hostess who wants to leave him! For normal people, shouldn't it be considered this way? Worried that the hostess opened the door and the air pollution in the bunker would cause everyone to suffer. If the old man said that, and then combined with the male lead, the female lead might not be so selfish and bent on running.
This explains that the old man never blames the hostess every time. You open the door and everyone die together. I hope you can consider other people's lives and not be too selfish. His logic is: I saved your life, and you must repay me. So you can't leave. On the contrary, he has a little appreciation for the heroine's behavior. Maybe I feel that the control of the active heroine is more fulfilling. (Don't ask me how I thought about it) Even the last female lead ran, he always showed mercy, didn't really stabbed the female lead with a knife, and finally even pleaded.
