Human-animal hybridization——challenge the bottom line of human morality

When I first saw the human-beast hybrid poster, I clearly saw that an egg was bred with a human-like fetus with a long tail. No doubt this poster successfully caught my eye and made me imagine a little excited, weird , Thriller, bold, anyway, I can't think of a very harmonious adjective. Speaking of which, check out the film's director - Vincenzo Natali, known for his weird, daring style, but I'm thinking of the moral limits of humanity he's challenging.



What I have to say is that the hybridization of humans and animals becomes different and more elegant, at least not using the most primitive method to fertilize eggs, but breeding a half-human, half-beast monster through DNA hybridization. Come, let the audience accept it. I think it is most suitable to define the name - Tren as the "demon" category. This reminds me that there is a type of object called monster in the Chinese antique industry. These objects are all It was created by later generations with their own wonderful thinking. And when-Tron is a demon among humans.



It's hard to imagine how special she will be when she is an adult. Deren, who was jumping around in her childhood, is not human at all, she is definitely typical Rodents, with eyes on the sides of the head, make a piercing whine, and the newly born Deren seems to have two tentacles on his mouth. The deep scar seems to split the head in half, the body seems to be in a semi-erect state, the upper limbs have not yet developed, and I was a little disappointed at first, not very human, but as Tren grew up, the lens gave me hope , a few months later, her child has developed very much like a human child. The key is that her intelligence is also developing, and she has emotions, which makes the heroine-Alyssa have the greatest maternal care of mankind for Deren, no matter what. Right or wrong, she has to protect Deren in the end, so that we can meet the adult demon Deren. At this time, the conflict between Eliza and the hero Clive (Alyssa's husband) is also becoming more and more serious. The more intense, one side is the moral bottom line, the other side is the great attraction of unknown creatures brought by science and technology, and the emotion of paying, obviously the latter is powerful, they all fell, although Clive struggled.



It is said that the female university has changed eighteen, and Deren has changed one hundred and eighty. It is not easy to change from a timid and sensitive rodent to a charming woman. Human genes have really started to play a role in the later stage, making her a beauty, even more beautiful than humans, with a charming face, a perfect body, and an elegant posture, but what has not changed are her two legs, absolutely dinosaur legs , The lower limbs of ancient creatures that can stand upright and have excellent bouncing power, and the flexible tail is fluttering around to be somewhat similar to that of a cat. It is sometimes elegant, but the elegance is a bit terrifying. The animal's primitive attack weapon is hidden in the tail. On the tip, more terrifying than the barb of a scorpion, because you never know when she exposes the bayonet, thank god for not giving her the ability to speak, so it makes me feel like she's still just an animal, and communication without language adds to her With more mysterious colors, with the development of Deren, she has been endowed with the power of gods, diving, climbing, higher and higher, and even she can grow wings and fly, when she wants to fly away. A moment was left by "love".



Deren's emotional changes are the most worrying. Love is an indispensable factor in modern films. Not only is there love between people, but there is also love between people and demons. I don't know how many audiences can accept such an arrangement. , I think some people in Europe and the United States are really promiscuous. They go to bed so quickly and naturally. I didn't expect that Clive couldn't resist Deren's temptation and betrayed his wife. Deren's relationship, I feel sad for Alyssa, and also feel that Alyssa has a little self-inflicted self-inflicted, Deren not only inherited Alyssa's DNA but also her emotions. Could Alyssa, should she forgive Clive?



All of the above seems perfect, but the hidden dangers finally surfaced. From childhood to adulthood, he was female, but after sex, Deren's gender changed, he became male, and he no longer listened to Alyssa and Clay The husband's command seemed to have no emotions, and he slaughtered like a wild beast, only for the original mission of the animal - to have sex with Alyssa. Under the contest of the male, Clive and Deren perished together, and died in his Under the bayonet, I think Alyssa has forgiven Clive, and that's the price they'll pay.



What makes me wonder is whose child Alyssa is pregnant with in the end, Clive or Tren's, the director's clever ambush is here, leading to clues for the 2 of human-beast hybridization. Next, I will make a guess. I think it should be Deren's child, so that we can return to the original point. Humans and beasts have completed a real hybridization, and have given birth to more weird and perfect species. Morality is no longer important here, because human beings What we face is the challenge of survival and the replacement of species.



In the end, the movie was still very good after watching it, and I felt a little depressed and the reverberation lingered for a while.
