It’s been a few years, but I haven’t seen this movie. It’s only been released recently. After watching it, I feel very surprised. It’s very beautiful and thought-provoking. I played a borderline ball on such a theme. I personally think that this movie mainly uses the skin of the monster theme to try to explore and touch the traces of human nature that slowly develops and changes in an environment of absolute loneliness, loneliness, and escapism. Human nature and animal nature interact with each other. Uncertain turning points in the transformation, and the trajectory of this cruising turning point shifting as the environment and individual thoughts change. The film starts with a lot of quotes from Nietzsche, and I personally think these messages are appropriate here, complementing the film’s plot, colors, and environmental structure, but I still think that those who say these words are bastards. At the end, I even suspected that all the plots of the film were imagined by the male protagonist, all of which never happened, just to find a suitable excuse for their own depravity.
The plot began on the eve of World War I. The male protagonist wanted to use a simple and pure life to escape the real world. He took the initiative to serve as a meteorological observer on an overseas island. . After going to the island, he met Guna, the lighthouseman who was indifferent and behaving strangely. At this time, the film has quietly foreshadowed the incredible things that will happen next.
Just after a few days of peaceful life, the male protagonist was shrouded in the strangeness of the isolated island. It turns out that this ocean still lives with weird and terrifying murlocs outside of natural evolution. The male protagonist was continuously attacked by blue-skinned murlocs at night. , These monsters are agile, weird-looking and ferocious, but the vigilant male protagonist desperately resists, using his wisdom and weapons to escape with near misses for two consecutive nights, but the weather station built with wooden boards was completely burned down.
After the monsters dispersed at dawn, the male protagonist accidentally discovered that the lighthouse manager Guna was living with a monster fish-man at the water source on the island. In order to survive, the male protagonist and Guna finally moved into the lighthouse after a lot of bargaining, and the life after that was more exciting. Now, every night, the bloody lighthouse offensive and defensive battles began to be staged, and even the explosives salvaged from the sunken ship were used, causing a large number of murloc deaths, and of course almost killing themselves. The defense of the two and the attack of the murlocs were renovated. Endless, as long as the sun does not come out, it will never end. Seeing this, I feel that the film seems to use the monster fish to map the American Indians. Moreover, Guna, the lighthouse manager, is a neurotic person, who often does unexpected things. During this period, he also tried to kill the male protagonist, but he failed. With the bloody killing of the male protagonist every day, the blood slowly cooled down.
As the plot progresses, the male protagonist slowly understands the reason for the monster murloc attack, and at the same time understands the causes and consequences of the female murlocs who live together here, and deeply sympathizes with the female murloc who is the object of Guna's sexual venting. The male protagonist even named the monster murloc Aniris. With the deepening of the understanding of the murlocs, the wounds of the two sides slowly healed and the truth was slowly revealed. However, at this time, because Guna was afraid of the outside world and could not bear the destruction of the order he established, he deliberately killed a murloc child. Thus making things completely out of control.
The angry male protagonist and Guna tore wildly, and finally couldn't do what he wanted. Just when Guna picked up the axe to make the final blow, the male protagonist, who had already understood everything, shouted out Guna's true identity. The animal nature was pulled back to human nature, but what he did made him completely collapsed and unable to face the restored human nature, so he shouted: "love, love, love" and resolutely rushed into the monster group and chose death.
As Guna, this small island is his world, and everything is decided by him alone. The female murlocs living in the lighthouse are the focus of all the fights. The fight between him and the monster murlocs is more like a Fighting for love, maybe Guna and the female murloc have indeed developed love, otherwise it cannot be explained that the female murloc has always stayed by his side, watching his own kind die for her every night, and the female murloc's final separation. Go also completely collapsed Guna.
At the end of the film, the male protagonist was already numb when the people who replaced him in shifts found him, both physically and mentally, and only muttered that he was Guna, and the male protagonist had already died. Chaos, where there is pure land.
