It is also a spaceship full of human hope, and it is also wandering in the depths of the universe. The protagonist of this film, Powell, like Jim in "Space Traveler", unexpectedly woke up from the freezer in advance, but Powell. Er is a spacecraft technician with much higher authority than Jim, but he doesn't have as good a fate as Jim. What awaits him is neither a bartender robot nor a variety of entertainment facilities, but a spacecraft whose system is on the brink of collapse and a fast-moving and brutal and bloodthirsty monster. Under the guidance of Lieutenant Payton, who also woke up from deep sleep, Powell set out to find his wife's freezer warehouse, but waiting for him were unpredictable monsters of the same kind and more. In the end, the mystery was revealed. It turned out that the spacecraft had already reached the target planet and fell into the deep sea. The gallon corporal who was on duty at that time had a mental breakdown and schizophrenia. He transformed part of the crew into monsters and released the rest of the freezer in batches. Coming out, the giant spaceship with tens of thousands of passengers became a hunting ground for his cruel fun.
This is a rather dark story, but compared to "Space Traveler", this is also the most likely story. Deep space amnesia is not only the name of this movie, but also a disease most likely to occur when a spacecraft enters the vast universe. When a person wakes up in deep freezing, there will be a loss of memory, which makes people forget that they are in the world. When and where, I forgot who I am and what I want to do. And when everything calms down, facing the boundless darkness of the vast universe, even the strongest people will completely collapse.
In this movie, there are multiple levels of human fear elements. The bloodthirsty mutants immediately remind people of the "alien", the representative of sci-fi horror, and these mutants in the film are like aliens, cruel, bloodthirsty and quick to move. Humans have no power to fight back in front of them, even if they are. The Asian warrior who can fight the most is only a small advantage in one-on-one heads-ups. Therefore, the protagonist and his companions can only do one thing, and that is to keep running for their lives. This is also the most primitive fear in human hearts. Although we have evolved into the most powerful species on earth, the genes left over from ancient times still make us have an indescribable fear of predators.
There have been studies saying that the reason why we hate the sound of nails crossing the blackboard is because it originated from the sound of lions and tigers and other beasts when they scratched the stone in ancient times. When that sound sounds, it often means a scene. The horrible killing, this fear is deep in our genes, and has been retained to this day. This also makes the mutant people in this film cause us greater fear, faster, stronger, and more bloodthirsty than people. In the process of watching the movie, you will unconsciously have a sense of substitution, time and time again. Tickles his heart and escapes from the hunt of the predator with the protagonist.
The mutant represents human fears at the physical level, while the weird person encountered by the protagonist team represents social fears. When the protagonist team flees to avoid the chase of the mutants, they encounter a weird person who woke up earlier than them. This person enthusiastically gave them food, but in fact the food was drugged and the weird person wanted to use them as food. , This weird person represents the social level of fear. In many zombie movies, we can see that after the world suddenly loses order, there will inevitably be some groups violently competing for survival resources and even cannibalism. In Chinese and foreign history, it is not uncommon for humans to eat their own kind for survival. . Once there is no legal constraint, people will fight for everything for survival by unscrupulous means. Therefore, this weird person in the film is a microcosm of society, reminding us that when the whole environment becomes extreme, we need to hug each other to keep warm, and we also need to dike every kind of appearing, because you can't know that in that smiling face Behind it, what vicious thoughts are hidden.
The last layer of fear, and the deepest layer of fear that is always present in the film, is the spiritual fear represented by the big villain Corporal Gallon in the film. As a crew member on duty, Corporal Gallon heard the news that the earth has been destroyed. The destruction of the earth means that there is no more law and morality. All human civilization is on this spaceship, and facing the boundless darkness. No one can hold it empty. In Gallon, part is madness and part is split, which precisely reflects the fragility of the human spirit. When we face darkness and deep space, we will unconsciously have doubts and doubt the meaning of our own existence, and in this doubt , It will make people split into multiple selves, trying to explain and save themselves, but just like a flashlight sinking into the sea, the deeper the sink, the darker the light will become, and the split personality will eventually become one by one. The blackness drags man himself into the endless abyss.
This is an underestimated movie. It tells the many levels of horror that humans have to face when traveling in space, and these horrors are unavoidable, because these are derived from human nature. In contrast, the terrible love ending of "Space Traveler" is already a happy ending like a fairy tale.
