Eve is a genetic copy of the heroine Serge in the previous work, so she and the heroine of the previous work are the perfect contrast.

Searle is ruthless and fearless, not so much that she is bloodthirsty, but that she has regarded killing as a means to solve all problems. She wasn't raised as a human, she was an observed experiment from birth, humans don't care about her life, and she doesn't care about human beings. In fact, there is no difference between the two sides in the confrontation. Unfortunately, human beings are mortals, she is superhuman, and the strength is too far apart, so her destructive power is particularly prominent, and her story is completely shaped by the winner into a horror movie.

Eve is very affectionate and considerate, and she was also born as an experiment in the laboratory. Luckily for Bissell, she has friends, and normal interactions with people give her humanity; unfortunately, Bissell has humanity, but no personal freedom. When she was trapped in the laboratory, she only She can be slaughtered by others, and after she escapes, she is deceived and used by the male protagonist, and she is killed by the male protagonist after giving birth to offspring. Her story is a downright tragedy, and she is the most innocent heroine in the tragedy.

The story of Eve is actually a further reveal that the murderous desire of alien horrors actually comes from human beings (the male protagonist's role can be further evidenced). In this way, the director is really pessimistic about human nature.

  • Melissa: [naked, in bed] Come. What's the matter?

    Patrick Ross: I don't know. We should hold off.

    Melissa: Oh, no, you don't need to not...
