The movie isn't anything fancy, just a product of Hollywood's assembly line. Compared with director Alexander Aggar's last work "Thriller", this film has nothing to praise. The failure to create a terrifying atmosphere makes the first half of the film seem protracted and dull, so that the second half is not very refreshing. After all, the flesh and blood under the sharp knife and axe is flying. We have experienced it in too many B-level horror films such as "Texas Chainsaw Massacre". The lack of plot layout is fatal. Slashing can only make the viewer get visual sensory stimulation, but cannot get more horror experience. This has made European and American horror films less and less scary in recent years, and gradually reduced to pure violent and bloody films. This creative stagnation cannot be made up for by the brave German black-backed loyalty of the glasses brother.
However, if you don't see "The Eyes of the Mountain" as a horror movie, but as a violent and bloody action movie, this movie can still speed up your adrenal secretion. Although the first half of the film is a bit bloody, but when the glasses brother is full of blood in the small town and fights with mutants, the fierceness of the image, the violence of the style, the blood of the scene, and the cruelty of the killing can still make the viewers It was dark and refreshing, and the wolf dog called "Beast" also added luster to it.
Of course, the premise is that you can't take this film as a horror film. In terms of horror and thriller, this film is a failure; when it comes to action, violence, and gore, this film is still passable.
