The deleted part still affects the plot

The deletion of the released version did affect the plot: 1. The film was around 45'28'' - 46'20'', and about 1 minute was deleted: the heroine husband (Kane) took a dagger and peeled off his teammate's belly, And saw the intestines peristalsis, and then Kane held a piece of intestines with one hand and a half, and saw the intestines peristalsis in his hands, the whole process was filmed. That is to say, after watching this video, the team members began to panic. At 67' of the video, Anya found that her palm prints were wriggling and changing just like the bowels she had seen before. The relationship between the master is not ordinary, which is also one of the reasons why she tied the other three teammates behind her; 2. At 62' of the film, the head of the teammate who died of the bear attacking the teammate was deleted, and the teammate's throat can be clearly seen here. There is no more, and the foreshadowing of the bear making a human voice is also buried.

To be honest, only the second brush can feel the emotions of the characters in the film. What is the difference between suicide and self-destruction? Freud put forward the human death instinct: will show aggression or self-destruction. "There are very few people who commit suicide, but many are self-destructing." For example, the heroine cheated and ruined her marriage, and Josie experienced the sense of existence through self-mutilation. People are participating in the operation in the self-destruction of human life, frustration, shadow and therefore cycle but do not know who . The heroine also voluntarily participated in the action. On the one hand, her self-destructive tendency is on the other hand, and she feels guilty for her husband. At this time, the heroine thought it was too simple.

At the 39' of the film, Cass tested the reason for the heroine's participation in the action, but the heroine's lie was exchanged for the truth:

Cass: I think there must be a reason for that.

Hostess: What do you mean?

Cass: Volunteer for this squad...if the family is happy, you wouldn't do such a thing. We've all been hurt.

Afterwards, Cass cited the "injuries" of her teammates one by one, including her own.

After the conversation during the day, the heroine must have thought a lot, and she should have guessed her husband's "injury". At 53' of the film, the heroine finally asks the team leader why her husband voluntarily participated in the action/"suicide". As a psychologist & the leader of the psychological assessment, I first introduced "self-destruction" to the heroine, citing several examples of self-destruction, such as destroying a marriage... It seems casual, but actually told the heroine the answer. I think as the leader of the team, she must know the real reason for each team member's participation in the action: Kane, just as the heroine estimated, already knew that she was betrayed, and her love for the heroine caused her heart to suffer. Looking back and thinking about it, Kane deliberately said to the heroine before departure: I do...love you. It seems to be explaining something. Combined with the whole film, it is found that this is actually a last word to the heroine.

Team leader: "Actually, you may be more qualified to explain this issue than me."

The heroine contacted the fact that she had ruined her marriage at this time, and she was very alert and even slightly aggressive and said, "What do you mean?"

Seeing the heroine pretending to be stupid, the team leader changed the subject with a disdainful smile and gave the heroine a step down.

At this point, the heroine finally confirmed that her self-destructive behavior not only ruined the marriage, but also directly led to Kane's "suicide" behavior. The road ahead, she must go! My husband needs to be rescued~

This is good, the group is destroyed.

    I am curious about what kind of taste it is to make such an audiovisual effect. Compared with the movie itself, I respect those who like or even enjoy the movie. PS From the glamorous and beautiful squad going to a spring outing, when entering Shimmer, I saw the exaggeration of the bloody picture in the memory card and the excitement of shouting don’t watch it. From then on, I began to make sure I didn’t like this movie. Hey sister, what are you guys? What is your role?

Annihilation quotes

  • Lena: The mutations were subtle at 1st; more extreme as we got closer to the lighthouse. Corruptions of form. Duplicates of form.

    Lomax: Duplicates?

    Lena: [She looks at the tattoo on her arm & lifts her arm up] Echoes.

    Lomax: Is it possible these were hallucinations?

    Lena: I wondered that myself... but they were shared among all of us. It was dreamlike.

    Lomax: Nightmarish?

    Lena: Not always. Sometimes it was beautiful.

    [the movie then cuts back in time to show beautiful translucent single-tailed wormfish swimming alongside double-tailed duplicates. Lena is in a canoe on a swamp located quite near to a corpse that bears the same tattoo as Lena]

    Lena: Oww. Ow.

    [She clutches her arm - there is no tattoo yet. However, a dark blue mark has appeared at the same place on her arm]

    Cass Sheppard: You're hurt?

    Lena: It's just a bruise. I must have gotten that from the gator.

  • Dr Ventress: It's not like us... it's unlike us. I don't know what it wants, or if it wants, but it'll grow until it encompasses everything. Our bodies and our minds will be fragmented into their smallest parts until not one part remains... Annihilation.
