I watch darkness invade

This is the first frightening film I've seen since overcoming my grudge. The
story is very simple, about a group of women encountering monsters in an underground cave.
The connotation is not simple. It talks about the dark side of the human heart and the weakness of human nature.
This team, when there is no danger, or when people are not afraid, has shown everything that a successful team should be, mutual assistance, bravery, fraternity, tolerance, and discipline. . .
When darkness invades everyone's heart, everyone shows different weaknesses, the fatal weakness in human nature!
Some people are weak, she died
some people self-esteem, she died
some people fear, she died
some people mean, she died
some people selfish, she died
some evil people, she died
some People take revenge, she died,
some people were reckless, she died, the
monster is a demon, every time you kill a monster, you are killing yourself, and everyone changes during the killing.
The only survivor who seems to have gone through bloody baptism, from fear at the beginning to fearlessness later, (Is this a transformation? It's hard to say. Haha) stepping on the corpses of teammates and crawling through the piles of countless victims Bones, through the ramp that looks like an exit. Then it seemed that it really came out, sighed, ran, drove away, and it seemed that the story ended like this, everything was complete. But the really brilliant part of this film is that there should be a classic scene: the heroine opens her eyes and finds that her escape just now was just a dream of a brief faint. The voices of distant monsters came from all directions again, and the heroine saw her daughter again, with despair and evil in her eyes. . .

    I don't remember where I've seen a lot of spoilers, so it's often not good == But I guess if I haven't seen the spoilers, the results are similar==

    Mysterious cave scenery, bloody scenes, lost in the dark and lost in people's hearts contrast with each other. The infighting at the end is reminiscent of the bear joke, but the weird ending makes it impossible to actually laugh.
