Synopsis
Caesar (Luis Tosal) is the administrator of an apartment building. He is diligent every day, saying hello to each resident and handling various affairs seriously.
Residents also trust him very much, some let him help take care of the puppies, and some let him come to repair the pipes freely.
But what everyone does not know is that Caesar is actually a person with serious psychological problems.
He wasn't born happy, didn't understand where other people's happiness came from, and he even thought about suicide.
However, when he found that making others unhappy could make him happy, he seemed to have found the support to keep going.
So, Caesar began to sneak into the house of a laughing girl named Clara, trying to make her lose her smile.
He would send Clara anonymous threatening text messages from his cell phone and write to her pretending to be a stalker.
He would put rotten fruit and worm eggs in Clara's closet, causing cockroaches to overflow.
To make matters worse, Caesar would lie under Clara's bed at night waiting for her to come back.
Then after she fell asleep, she was drugged unconscious and lay beside her all night.
Before leaving in the morning, he would also put allergy medicine in Clara's skin care products, day after day.
But what made Caesar strange was that he found that Clara was not unhappy because of what happened in her life, and she still greeted him with a smile every day she met him.
This made Caesar unacceptable, because then he could not be happy.
So that night, Caesar sneaked into Clara's house again with some tools, ready to go further.
Unexpectedly, Clara's boyfriend came back, and the two were lingering on the bed, refusing to fall asleep.
Caesar was very nervous. He accidentally overturned the drug and inhaled it into his lungs.
He knew he had to get out as soon as possible, or it would be over if he was found.
But under the influence of the drug, he gradually lost consciousness...
Video Analysis
This is a very attractive story. The film was introduced from voyeurism, but unlike "Rear Window", it was not just voyeurism after that. The male protagonist began to influence and even get involved in the lives of others. A bold and full of creativity The idea of power, which makes the whole story full of tension, makes the audience keep wanting to explore, very suspenseful.
On the other hand, the atmosphere of the film is also very good. We can imagine that when we are alone in bed late at night, there is also a person lying under the bed, and the sense of horror comes immediately, and when we really integrate into it, it turns out that I will be worried about whether the perverted male protagonist will be found, especially in the second half, which is very tense and exciting.
But the film did not go further, I think it has something to do with its lack of a clear theme. Obviously, as a director who is good at controlling horror films, Jaume Balaguero, he hopes that the film will bring us pure horror. , The feeling of horror, to be honest, I did feel it, and even a little scared, but that's all.
In addition, we can't get more from the film that can really touch the soul. In fact, the male protagonist and his sick mother, the lonely old lady in the household, and even the optimistic female protagonist, every point can be deeper Dig in the ground, so that each character will be fuller and more impressive. Perhaps in this case, when looking back on this movie many years later, in addition to the perverted male protagonist in the impression, there will be other things that can penetrate our memory.
Finally, I would like to share some thoughts that came to my mind while watching the movie. Life is actually the same, the difference is people's attitude towards it, and it is because of the different attitude that makes it look different. Most of us live the same life day in and day out, and we encounter a lot of bad things every day, maybe even worse than the characters in the movie, the only thing for sure is that living an unhappy day doesn't To make life better, smile is the most important thing that should be passed between people.
If everyone smiles at the people they meet every day, I believe the whole world will be a better place.
