Scourge

A film with an aftermath will make people have expectations to some extent, but after watching this film ignorantly, there are indeed many places that are not well understood.
The people in the village are a cult, so keep the eldest son and kill all the second sons. Loren was the second son and should have been killed, but she escaped and was sheltered. But it was God or Satan who sheltered her. From the final ending, it should be understood that Loren was protected by God, and God ended up killing everyone in the village. Is it too cruel? What is the explanation for the death of the priest? The priest who did not do bad things was burned to death by nameless fire, whether it should be Satan's logical reasoning. Where did the prompt at the beginning come from? From this, it seems that God and Satan do their own thing and do not interfere with each other, which is somewhat unreasonable. And how the hell did Katherine know it was Doug who killed Ben?
The visual effects of the film are pretty good. From the beginning of the blood river, it is very shocking, and then the locusts are even more frightening to watch, and even the final sky fire is extremely spectacular.
I just don't understand why the result is that Katherine was raped by Doug and left a posthumous child. And the suspense at the end seems to be that the child in the womb will turn into a devil after birth. But this is just a cult, people are still normal people, why do they behave like aliens.
Some women are famous for their faces, which makes people think that she still has some acting skills. Some women are famous for their acting skills, and then they give people a more and more beautiful feeling. Hilary Swank is the latter, and the halo of the two-time Oscar actress began to shine on her. . My family's AnnaSophia Robb's filthy appearance takes away from her beauty, and it's a pity that the tearful Leslie in Bridge to Terabithia has etched this Natalie Portman-like little girl into my heart.

The Reaping quotes

  • Katherine Winter: In 1400 B.C., a group of nervous Egyptians saw the Nile turn red. But what they thought was blood was actually an algae bloom which killed the fish, which prior to that had been living off the eggs of frogs. Those uneaten eggs turned into record numbers of baby frogs who subsequently fled to the land and died. Their little rotting frog bodies attracted lice and flies. The lice carried the bluetongue virus, which killed 70% of Egypt's livestock. The flies carried glanders, a bacterial infection which in humans causes boils. Soon afterwards, the Nile River Valley was hit with a three-day sandstorm otherwise known as the plague of darkness. During the sandstorm, intense heat can combine with an approaching cold front to create not only hail, but also electrical storms which would have looked to the ancient Egyptians like fire from the sky. The subsequent wind would have blown the Ethiopian locust population off course and right into downtown Cairo. Hail is wet, locusts leave droppings, spread both on grain, and you have got mycotoxins. Dinnertime in ancient Egypt meant the first-born child got the biggest portion, which in this case, meant he ate the most toxins, so he died. Ten plagues. Ten scientific explanations.

  • Doug Blackwell: [about dead fish] When did this start?

    Sheriff Cade: This morning. Bubbled up like farts in a bathtub.
