The male protagonist is definitely an infected person!

After watching the movie, I went to see the film reviews. I don't know why no one thought the male protagonist was infected.

I think the male protagonist is the infected person for the following reasons:

①First of all, there is no test to prove that the male protagonist is not infected.

②At the beginning of the film, the male lead lost in chess, which shows that the male lead's IQ is not very bad. But later, the reasoning ability of the male protagonist has surpassed Skyrim, which is likely to be the result of the strange shape. This may be a deep hole dug by the author.

③The male protagonist has a torn jacket. Fuchs, the first person to find the clothes, died strangely outside. Then the light in the male lead's room turned on, and the male lead and his party found the broken coat in his room.

This series of incomprehensible events is most likely to be like this: the male protagonist is an infected person, Blair (the person in the small black room) has been infected at this time, and it may be realized that the male protagonist has already been fighting at this time. He is taller than him (infighting may also occur between strange shapes), so he wants to use this jacket to expose the male lead, and then the jacket is discovered by Fuchs. We assume that Fuchs is not infected, then he will definitely take the jacket and tell others, Blair's purpose was achieved. But the fact is that Fuchs is dead. This shows that Fuchs is also an infected person. From the perspective of an infected person, he will destroy this piece of clothing as soon as possible. Blair stopped him, and then took this piece of clothing to the male lead’s room and turned on the light to lead the male lead to his party. come over. This is the story afterwards.

④There are still two people at the end of the story. However, the male protagonist has completely relaxed. It stands to reason that Childs has not appeared for a long time. The male protagonist should doubt his identity, but the male protagonist did not talk about trust. Finally he said, why don't we wait a while? It can be seen that the strange shape freezes itself smoothly.


The film is a bit old and the special effects are not perfect. After watching a lot of biochemical films, the plot of this film has no highlights. Finding out and looking at it can be said to be a tribute to the classics.
