Fear begins with the unknown

The counterattack of the animals has already begun, but the plants have just begun. There is no source of the beginning. It is such an ordinary day. Without any prior warning, the people around him began to commit suicide. The constant jumping of construction workers instantly attracted me to this film.
"We can't fully understand the behavior of nature" The director made it very clear shortly after the opening, so there is no need to sit in the right seat. In fact, it is a horror film. Maybe the director didn't want to explain anything at all. The previous man-eating beasts turned into plants that didn't seem to "move", and the bloody bites turned into suicide in various ways. Animal horror movies of the past have always had a reason, we bleed in the sea and met hungry sharks; we went to collect blood orchids, and there was a python's lair; we detonated nuclear weapons and turned small lizards into big monsters; what about plants? It seems that there is nothing, maybe it is deforestation, environmentalists will definitely say this; people who study plants will also say that "plants respond to human stimuli", but the director still did not give a reason after all. . Those who like to find out are disappointed, what to do, what do I do, wait to die? It seems that there is no escape. If I don't go to the sea, there will be no sharks. If I don't go to the United States and Japan, there will be no monsters. Then the plants, we can't live without them, and they seem to be aimless "killers", which is true It's a big problem in criminal psychology.
Everything came so suddenly and ended so suddenly, I thought it was over, but a "rash theory" came, and human beings still haven't found a way. Nature is much stronger than us. When watching the movie, I saw the wind. Taking the leaves outside the window, my heart throbbed.
PS: I personally think the conversation between Wahlberg and Plastic Leaf is wonderful.

    chap! It's been a long time since I've seen a thriller with such scenes and acting skills that make people speechless. The most terrifying scene is the rolling black clouds at the end of the credits, okay? A large number of close-up close-ups and rough textures look like old films from 30 years ago. Fortunately, the director also filmed "The Sixth Sense", which blinded the good idea of ​​plant killing.
