The genre of this film is a bit strange, it can be regarded as a psychological thriller, a sci-fi ghost and bizarre thrill type, it can also be regarded as a doomsday reflection, or even simply regarded as an environmental protection film, maybe this is just a part of the audience This method, unfortunately, there are so many people, it is not easy to care.
Go through the story, and don't discuss why it happened and ended. On the premise that the story is assumed to be true, discuss its own significance. Let's first implant the concept of an energy crisis film.
Compared to various films about the destruction of human beings, this film seems very nonsensical. Under these surfaces, serious issues such as the development of science and technology, theological and religious beliefs, the meaning of the physical and spiritual existence of human beings, and the direction of the future world or the doomsday world are discussed.
Is it terrible to face beasts? Or are ghosts scary? Human beings have been afraid of the dark for a long time, because it is an unknown, a mystery, and ghosts are born from it. These are the reactions of human beings based on their inner spiritual level. The accompanying words are uneasy conscience, and ghosts. Transformed into a powerful god, resulting in religion.
On the other hand, with the rapid development of science and technology, human beings are constantly cracking the code of nature, trying to control all unknowns, always discussing a result and finding a reason, just like the scientist Hawking has to go to the creation of the universe before science can not explain it. Believe in God.
And this film is anti-theology and anti-science. It can be simply considered that this film hopes to show the animal nature of human beings, as long as you are in awe of faith, and you only need to ask for technology on demand. The spirit of this is the same as the movie "Avatar", but because "Avatar" is too gorgeous, many people do not see its own meaning.
The Nami people in Avatar regard other creatures as equal to themselves, and the hunting of animals is only based on food, while the alien colonists of the earth, under the banner of spreading scientific and technological civilization and religious beliefs, based on the heart of interests, after destroying the earth , and began to destroy this beautiful planet. Based on human thinking, he began to assimilate the Nami people, turned a blind eye to other creatures, and paid a heavy price.
The interpretation of this film is based on the fact that after nature has been completely destroyed, the animals are only human friends such as birds, cats, dogs and horses. The animals in this film are only pets, and the powerful animals are kept in zoos for viewing. Humans have no fear of them, only cute, cute and kawaii-based adjectives based on human self. Without the fear of reality, no matter how technology develops. Human beings themselves are more and more serious about their reverence for unknown gods and their fear of ghosts.
This film is based on this. Humans immerse their minds in the illusionary world of images, store natural beauty in film, destroy it in reality, drive animals that threaten human existence into the depths of the forest, cut down the forest, hunt and kill Elephants are hunted for their ivory, and tigers are hunted for their skins. Humans are accustomed to their own possessions. It is satisfying to play with anything in their hands. The pursuit of things has reached the extreme, not only for animals, but also for themselves. Ethnic and ethnic parties , doing meaningless behaviors, consuming limited earth resources, until the end.
We all know that energy will run out one day because humans are too greedy. To use the metaphor of illness, getting AIDS means waiting for death, and getting gastritis may last a lifetime. And this film adopts the method of immediate death, it doesn't give you the opportunity to prepare at all, the energy is suddenly exhausted, what should you do? We are now living in an unreal world, the Internet is the largest unreal platform, the largest online game. When the power goes out, we can't even write without the keyboard.
The coming of darkness is a kind of human unknown. The fear of not grasping is enough to make us lose our souls. The few surviving people rely on faith to support the fear of the spirit. One is based on self, one is based on children, one is based on lover, and the other is based on love. Based on their mothers, the strength of their inner beliefs, or unfulfilled wishes, determines their survival time.
The projectionist slipped out to flirt with the sales clerk while the audience in the movie theater was laughing, talking dismissively about how boring Adam Sandler movies were, he was reading a book of anecdotes, he He survived in the dark for a long time, and survived because of curiosity and adaptation to the dark. He screamed and cried when he walked out of the screening room. The small owner of the 24-hour small shop survived, and the policeman who kept watch at night survived. It can be seen from this that people It doesn't disappear immediately. After the limit of his own enduring was shattered, he became mentally ill.
The woman on the night shift survived because of her child's belief, the chest opener on the operating table could endure the known severe pain, and the unknown darkness scared him to death. The woman's spirit finally collapsed because of the yearning for her child, accompanied by disappointment again and again.
A man who is passionate and infatuated likes the dark. Under the unruly appearance, there is a hidden heart of true love. A homeless man who adapts to the dark can survive for 3 days. He died because he was in love with the little boy.
The little boy is still afraid of shooting, the little girl is still afraid of unfamiliar adults, and the night is just their sleep, the little boy firmly believes that his mother is waiting for him, his spirit is not in himself but in the mother, the orphaned little girl living in the church I've gotten used to being on my own. Candles that never go out, and solar-powered flashlights that only turn on when you go out at night.
We rely too much on modern products, and only think of lighting the torch when the battery is exhausted, and keeping the animal-like birds, cats, dogs and horses in the dark just means sleep time for them.
We always have to rely on our living animal friends to keep us company instead of turning them into food remains. We can't survive in the cold steel and cement, the fragility of the body is beyond our imagination, hug your dog to warm each other in winter, enjoy the shade under the shade of the tree in summer, keep a grateful heart for natural creatures, reduce your desires,
Money is the original sin of this world, the invention of the devil. We no longer have natural relics. They have all been dug up and displayed in museums. One day, our remains will be uncollected and rotted in a high-rise building, which is a tomb-like closed museum for whom to see?
Materials are prosperous, spiritual corpses are everywhere, and human beings will eventually perish and disappear on Seventh Street...
or PS:
This is a spiritual work. One of the definitions of death is brain death, which can be regarded as spiritual death, but Humans still regard the demise of the body as a real goodbye. That is because humans take the body too seriously, and always feel that sparks and burial are the proper parting of life and death. That's why people cry so sadly at that time, which is also a kind of extreme materialization, while the show in this film is the opposite. In the dark, we can only feel it with our hearts.
Some people are already dead when they are alive, what a great word, but in the present, this can only be a joke, beggars are dead, and people with money are living well. I can only conjecture like a nerve in my own spirit, if, just if, the death of the spirit is accompanied by the death of the body, how many people will there be left on our earth?
What's more real in the game is that without MP, it basically means that death is not far away. And what about reality? Congratulations, your HP is high enough to last a lifetime.
Don't take it seriously, it's just a neuropathy asking for attention.
