Everything is fine except the script

How should I put it, this is a good movie, with strong logic and full of humanity. Both the victim and the perpetrator have normal physiological and psychological conditioning and environmental reactions: pride - anger - jealousy - resistance - fear - pity - love, It's not just some screaming or hideous face masks, every character is a real person, after watching it, you feel sorry for everyone's death, not the usual horror movies that let the audience watch and keep scolding "Run, mother. Force" that kind of scenario. The director doesn't despise the audience's IQ at all, which is simply too touching.
The length of the film belongs to the kind of long, but it is interlocking, compact and catchy, and there is no sleep point, which almost no horror movie can do before.
In fact, this very old-fashioned script can be said to be a patchwork - Texas Chainsaw Massacre (similarities: big boy, big family, serial house, cannibalism, killer's truck drives away survivors), House of Thousand Corpses (Similarities: Monster Mine, Seduction of Blonde Beauty, Family, Hotel), Human Skin Inn (Similarities: Big Family, Hotel, Serial House, Anti-Killing of Central Characters) The
only so-called novelty is the addition of some links to current affairs The ideological battle (the French right in power joined the US in a frivolous flip-card war), seems to have risen to some heights.
Self-proclaimed symbolic character set - left-wing youth who ran away from anti-rightist marches fell into the hands of far-right Nazi families, then: Blonde Youth No. 1 (symbolizing purebred Aryans) stupid, arrogant, lustful and cowardly, so should be the first Go to hell; the blond man No. 2 is reckless, go to die; the duty-bound Muslim youth is a little smart so he will die at the end; the not-so-pure brunette woman finally succeeded in resisting, and the right-wing regime on the radio finally failed to take the stage (too poor, okay? !!), and was finally caught by the police (the right-wing regime)..... (fortunately, this is the end)
but without these broken political ideas, I am afraid it would have become a COPY version of the Texas Thousand Corpse Human Skin Inn. .
The director is strong and makes people look forward to it
