After watching the movie, I learned some background stories, and I feel that the death of the nine-member mountaineering group is not so mysterious. It is probably the result of multiple factors, but I don't believe it is supernatural.
First of all, it may have suffered a small avalanche like the film played. Cut open the tent, the clothes are not properly dressed! Great explanation! I heard a strange noise in my sleep and found the avalanche and ran for my life. It's strange that I don't have all my clothes on?
Fortunately, the avalanche was not big enough, so they all escaped alive, but it didn't take long to escape, it was over 30 degrees below zero! Therefore, the two people who died under the tree had burnt ashes under the tree, and the branches within 5 meters of the tree were all refracted. Obviously, someone climbed a tree to break a branch to make a fire, but a fire is not a panacea. After all, there is too little clothing, and when the fire is out, there is no energy to break the branch again.
The three people who froze to death on the way back to the camp should have made a different choice than the two people under the tree. After the avalanche stopped, their first thought was to go back to the camp to get warm items (or this was their division of labor, 2 people made a fire, and the others went back to get warm clothes), but the hypothermia was too fast, so they all froze to death in the back camp on the way.
There are also 4 people found a little further away. I guess they were dressed a little neatly when they ran out, so they could last longer. As for the clothes they wore on some other companions, one may have taken the wrong clothes in a panic (if several people share a tent), or took their clothes after seeing the death of their companions, to ensure that the remaining few people can be better run out.
Unfortunately, when they were evacuating, the Soviet Union conducted a nuclear weapons test, which exploded near them, and the shock wave of the explosion killed them, including directly shattering bones or throwing people and hitting them on cliffs. And after several of them died, they were covered with snow, which was also in line with the snow on the hillside being shaken off by the explosion.
Then, on the one hand, the nuclear weapons tests should be kept secret, and on the other hand, the military should conduct weapons tests in no-man’s land. If these people entered the valley and completed the normal procedures and reported, but there is no department to review and stop them, it must be some department negligence. In order to prevent public outrage, the truth was concealed.
The only thing that cannot be explained is the tongue problem. Is it possible for the explosion to blow up the tongue? not sure.
Not much to say about the film itself. Brain-burning is very burning, but it is too fake. No matter how much it is unexplainable, it just shows that the screenwriter's level is limited. I don't want to waste my brain power on a broken script.
