"Murder in Lost Town" is ironic but not suspenseful

"Murder in the Lost Town"

A suspenseful film full of dark humor,

Actor performances are all online,

But the storytelling is unsatisfactory,

It can be said to be ironic and suspenseful.

There are two parallel lines in the plot,

Using the scenes of the black family to express the issue of racial discrimination in that era,

Appears to be applied to the surface.

But from another angle,

The black family that is restless day and night,

In the face of all inequality, we still love each other in the end,

And the Matt Damon family, who was calm on the surface and surging with dark tides,

In the battle of human sexual desires, the family is destroyed,

In terms of atmosphere, it formed the biggest contrast in the whole film,

It also leaves a lot to think about.
