The first half of the script is about a serial killer case that seems to be extremely low-handed now. It also has the characteristics of silent films, the use of light and shadow, the exaggerated performance of the characters' expressions and movements, and the experimentation of sound and fusion of comedy. And the characteristics of horror have given a lot of inspiration to later films. And the short moot court scene at the end of the film is obviously more brilliant. The statement of the male protagonist can be resonated and understood by those outlaws, but they are asked to be brought to justice by those who do not obey the law.

    The front is very suspenseful, a serial perverted loli killer; the back is very black, the people set up private courts; the ending is very meaningful, with regard to human rights and the law, is it right for people with mental illness not to bear legal responsibility? / Both black and white found people at the same time.

Am I laughing more? The actors' performances are so dedicated, Peter's eyes are really big when he stares, and the ending is too hasty?
