Horror is hidden in the worldview

At that time, after watching the first movie, I especially wanted to complain about the thing that ordinary shotguns can solve. You, the United States was actually captured by it, but it’s okay... I figured out this doubt in the second movie. Simply put, it’s this monster. He has two blood bars, the first one is very thick and the second one is very thin. The weakness of the monster lies in the head. It is necessary to use sonic attacks to expose the weakness of the monster, allowing the player to ignore one health bar and hit the second one. So we saw the shotgun in the first one kill the monster so much that it caused countless Tucao famous scene.

Then why I think there is still a logical problem in the second part, there are two main points, one is the choice of part of the character, and the other is the characteristics of the monster.


Let me talk about the plot first.

In the first part, the protagonist’s family was flooded due to the destruction of the monster’s stronghold, so they could only bring their belongings to find a new place to live. The beginning of the plot introduces the origin of the monster, the heavenly descending system, and shows the relationship between the protagonist and the protagonist's family-the children's friends playing baseball together .

At the beginning of the film, the heroine took three babies (one of them is a baby) to the stronghold of the hero. The hero noticed them, and noticed that the son of the heroine’s family was almost gone when he stepped on his trap. Anyway, he hung up and watched. Although the heroine responded quickly and covered her son's mouth, two monsters were still attracted. The group quickly ran into the abandoned factory and began to hide. At this time, the hero appeared to help them avoid the monsters together.

The male protagonist took this group of children into his hiding spot. He didn’t expect to be recognized by the female lead who he was. He originally wanted the female lead to leave and he didn’t want to take them in, but the female lead showed her newborn child, male. The Lord's heart is softened.

In the evening, my daughter and son listened to the radio to solve the mystery. The daughter successfully solved the case and found that the content broadcast on the radio did indeed indicate that a certain place was clustered with survivors. She hoped that her son would go with her to persuade everyone to set off together, but her son felt that it was good to be alive now. The randomness of the radio station was too strong to go.

The daughter was also very temperamental, so she brought her own equipment and set off. The next day the heroine found that her daughter was gone, and begged the hero to save her daughter. She and her son had to stay at home to take care of the newborn. The hero felt relieved again.

The daughter was almost killed by the monster neng on the way, but fortunately the male lead came in time. The two arrived at a dock following the clues solved by their daughter, but they were ambushed by the dogs who lived there and snatched their equipment and supplies. The male protagonist, Jizhongsheng Chile, used the tacit understanding between himself and his daughter to successfully attract two monsters to kill the people on the dock, and then he and his daughter jumped into the water and escaped.

This reveals the monster’s second weakness, that it cannot enter the water. It doesn't matter if you encounter it, but the monster will die if it falls into the water. This thing can't swim. However, it has not been revealed whether the monster drowned due to lack of oxygen or due to other reasons.

Following the clues, the two took a boat to a small island. Upon arrival, they found that this place was simply a peach blossom field. Everyone laughed and talked about not worrying about the monsters. The two suddenly realized that this is the best place to avoid monsters, and monsters can't swim anyway.

People on the island are also constantly sending out radio signals to the outside world, hoping that more people can find refuge here together. The hostess and the village chief on the island were very happy. He let his daughter stay here. He was going to take the boat back to pick up the remaining hostess and the group, but he accidentally discovered that there was another ship, and he realized instantly It was the monster who was chasing him at the dock and drifting over on another ship.

The male protagonist ran back to the village to tell everyone to run quickly, but the monster arrived in a timely manner and killed indiscriminately. The man took his daughter and the village head drove the car and honked the horn to lead the monster to the radio station on the island. After sacrificing a village head, the man and his daughter successfully entered the radio station.

The monster followed closely, and the daughter used the radio to play sound waves, and when the monster's brain burst, she stabbed it to death. On the other hand, when the hostess and the group were about to be driven to death by the monster, the son turned on the radio to broadcast the radio, and also used sound waves to attack the monster to death. Everyone was happy.


Now let’s come back to what I think is questionable. Let me talk about the choice of some roles, mainly the male protagonist and the daughter.

daughter

After going through many things, I feel that I cannot treat my daughter as an ordinary teenage girl, especially after the death of the father, the daughter matures rapidly. Under such circumstances, it is really inexplicable to decide to seek rescue by myself. Does the white skin have a plot of personal heroism? A monster that can't be dealt with by a family, is it okay to travel alone?

One thing about her choice that seems illogical to me is that she is already very mature, and the decision she made is still so irresponsible. The solution to finding rescue is not just following the radio. Didn’t your family have done all sorts of warning measures and did it well? Even gave birth to a baby, why is your daughter suddenly going to extremes now? When the peaceful days are broken, you must go out to find rescue. This change is really a bit abrupt, and you still follow a radio station to solve the mystery. Have you considered that this might even be a bait in this end-of-day situation? It just makes me feel like I'm looking at a diode, which is weird.

Male protagonist

The point of the hero is not that he is soft-hearted, but that the reason he was persuaded both times makes me feel weird.

One is when the hostess begged to stay, he was unwilling at first, but after seeing the newborn, he was willing. It’s not that I don’t understand. Do you have a special plot for babies and toddlers? Are you ignoring the two minors next to him? Why are you still selective? Must be under 1 year old to trigger your soft heart mechanism? At this point, I did not see the struggles and difficulties of the hero at all.

It is mentioned in the film that the male protagonist has always missed his son and wife (but he was killed by the monster). He may have left the hostess and his group behind because of the scene, but your scene is not right...this target It's not the same age. If you see the heroine touching the scene and thinking of your wife, I can understand it, and I really don't understand when you see a baby.

The other is when the heroine begged the hero to save her daughter. The reason for the heroine is that if my husband is still alive, he will tell you that his daughter is worth saving. Look at the points I questioned about my daughter's choice above, and then listen to the words the hostess said. If my husband and your husband come over and say that your daughter is worthy of being saved, I will first have two questions:

  1. Your daughter didn't say a word. She took the scarce supplies and ran out to find a "rescue" that no one had heard of except her son. Why should I save this kind of person? Waiting for the second time to take the supplies and run away? Do you think I am here to refresh something? I can refresh myself with a wave of things?
  2. You tell me that your daughter is worthy of being saved, so go by yourself? What do you want me to do? Your own daughter, if you don’t save yourself, run over and tell me she is worthy of being saved, so what? Well, I know, I know she is worth it, but-off? I? fart? thing? You eat mine, drink mine, live mine, pull the blame at my house and let me A. Now that my daughter ran away, I have to save it. You have to return to the ancestors to be a bit thorough.

But the film showed that the male lead really went.

I can still find a reasonable explanation. For example, the male protagonist may have been full of guilt because he did not save his son and wife in time. He hopes to reduce his guilt in this way; for example, he was alone. It’s been a long time, maybe I’m tired, if I can’t save it, I’ll just die on the road.

But the film does not show these two points in detail. This is my own guess, so what else can I do? I can only say that you are weird, but not that you have a problem.

After talking about the choice of characters, let's talk about the questions raised by the characteristics of monsters.

The setting of the monster in the first part can be summarized as the following: extremely fast, infinite power, distinguishing position by hearing, mainly relying on two huge forelimbs with sharp edges to kill. For details, please refer to the followers of the Warhammer Tyrann Zerg (of course, Hu never completely relied on this to kill)↓

Monsters currently possess only hearing and touch, which are within the scope of human cognition, and mainly rely on hearing. Monsters can hear abnormal noises (referring to all kinds of other sounds except natural sounds) from more than ten miles away, so in the first part, the protagonist family can rely on the sound of a large amount of water to cover up their actions, or use the sound of sound to attract Open monsters.

Neither in the first nor in the second, there is no direct expression of the effect of the army or heavy firepower on the monsters. Only the residents themselves rely on shotguns, shotguns or pistols and cold weapons to contend with monsters. So I only know that ordinary firearms have no effect on monsters, and I don't know anything else.

In the first part, the monster's first weakness is given, which is weak sonic resistance. That is, because monsters are extremely sensitive in hearing, they will place the armor at the beginning when they are affected by sound waves of a certain frequency. At this time, ordinary firearms or cold weapons can be used to directly attack the weak points to kill them.

At that time, why many people complained, including me, that this thing can be killed by a shotgun, and why would the entire United States be destroyed as a whole? I figured it out later because when the monster hasn't exposed its weakness, let alone a shotgun, you or Rambo can't penetrate his armor. However, the video doesn't give any information about the United States as a whole. It's like the player only explored less than 10% of the map. The devastation in the eye does not mean that the remaining 90% are like this.

In the second part, the monster's second weakness is given: it cannot enter the water . The scene at the pier showed how the monster was drowned and how to fear falling into the water (it does not affect the people standing on the shore and poking into the stagnant water). My doubts arose spontaneously when I saw the small island behind- that It's obviously not the first time that the people who helped ambush at the pier did this. Why would they run around when encountering monsters instead of jumping into the water?

My first reaction actually felt unreasonable, because this is a natural evolutionary process: the people who jumped into the water were saved, the people who stayed on the shore were killed, and the rest of the people must know that they can live in the water. When the protagonist was tied up with a bell, he might be the first brave person to ring a bell because he wanted to actively induce a monster to come and kill himself and escape from the chaos, but I don’t believe he was the first to ring a bell. . In the past, this kind of accident must have occurred more or less in the process of robbing the Dao in the past, and then monsters will more or less definitely come. Under such circumstances, I don’t know that monsters are afraid of water?

This is the first doubt, and then there is the second doubt: Why does Kojima broadcast people to find them instead of broadcasting monsters afraid of water?

This is also a very strange point for me: since you can broadcast, you can tell everyone the weakness of the monster. It is obviously more convenient for people to come to you and people to find areas near lakes, rivers and seas near their own location, right?

This is what I explained to myself at the beginning: The people on the island are ready to stick to it for a long time, so in order to ensure genetic diversity, they must constantly attract outsiders. If you directly tell everyone the weakness of the monster, then it is likely to reduce a large part of the potential source of population.

But I refuted this point myself: In fact, there are really not many excellent geographical conditions like small islands. Even if you live in a waterfront area, you may not be able to avoid monster hunting (monsters are very athletic and water If it is not deep enough or wide enough, it may be killed if it enters the water), so they can still attract many people by broadcasting the existence of the island.

So the question returns to the original point: Why don’t the people on the island tell everyone the weakness of the monster? It is mentioned in a passage in the film that the village chief said that everyone did not believe that anyone outside was still alive and was about to give up. Then I think it’s even more strange. You should broadcast the weaknesses of the monsters from the beginning, so that more talents can survive to come to the island? Besides, are you diodes? Can't let down the weakness after playing the song? Can't you put the two together? This is really weird.

The village chief also said that, in fact, the National Guard had long discovered that the monster could not swim, so they let everyone board the boat and go to the island. Here we can get a message that the national power has actually found that monsters can't swim , but when implemented at the grassroots level, everyone wants to live, so a lot of them died in the end.

You see, it’s not just the people on this island who know the weakness. The National Guard has already known it. Why does it seem that only a small group of people know it? So I am really confused.

All in all, although this movie is about monsters that are terrifying, it seems to me that this country in a quiet place (I don’t know if it’s not the United States anyway, his sister said) is more slack in operation and ineffective in dealing with monsters. More horror.

Take this epidemic as an example. How many people can monsters kill? How many people can die in a poorly handled country? Obviously not an order of magnitude. Let me think about it again. The so-called surface layer of the silent land means that everyone should not make noises to alarm the monsters, but in fact, is it possible that the inner layer refers to the failure to save people in time after a disaster and inform everyone of countermeasures in time, but keep silent What about this behemoth?

As far as the sauce is concerned, this film is okay, can watch, above.
