There are obvious shadows of horror films such as "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "Horror Wax Museum" in the film, perhaps because of the usual ideas of Western horror films. Still go the bloody route, but to be honest, there are fewer bloody shots than those movies, but scenes such as severed fingers are still inevitable.
The protagonist in such a horror film is always composed of several men and women together. There are relatively few members here, and the relationship is relatively simple.
The film is adapted from the real backpacker murders in Australia. The director used this background as a gimmick, and told everyone at the beginning of the film that it was true, and said, "It is reported that nearly 30,000 people are missing in Australia every year. , 90% of the missing persons will be found within one month, but some missing persons have disappeared from the world forever." After investigation, it was indeed based on several murders including Ivan Mirat, a serial killer who murdered 7 backpackers in Australia.
After watching the film, I learned some lessons from the horror film more deeply, as follows:
1. You must pay attention to driving out to travel. If the car is inexplicably difficult to start or damage in an unfamiliar place, beware that it is deliberately sabotaged.
Two: If it happens that the car cannot be started or is damaged, and a stranger who does not know the details wants to take you to his place to pick up parts or something, do not blindly follow it, beware of conspiracy behind it. Of course, don't just trust strangers, and don't just taste the water, drinks or food they give.
Three: The car key must not be tied to a large number of keys, otherwise the escape time will have to test the keys one by one to start the car, which will delay the escape time.
Four: Don't talk nonsense to the bad guy when you take the gun at him. It's better to shoot him quickly, and then you must remember to make up a few shots, otherwise the bad guy will not die out of ten. Of course, it is important to know how to use guns in advance.
Five: Don't look forward and backward when you are escaping, and don't run along the main road, otherwise you will only die if you are caught up.
In the past, most Western horror films had a male and a female partner to escape each other. The male protagonist here unexpectedly awakened and escaped in the last 20 minutes of the film, that is, after both heroines were killed, and he didn’t know how to leave and he was lucky. The ground was met and rescued by passers-by. It feels like there are some abrupt plots here, maybe the director has his own considerations. In the end, the murderer was not caught.
The scenery along the way in the first part of the film is very beautiful, but it is more murderous in the back. I was wondering whether anyone would dare to camp around the real crater in reality?
One of the heroines flipped through the room and saw the relics of many tourists who had been tricked into death. From the DV, he saw some happy scenes recorded by families and tourists themselves, which invisibly brought out the tragic ending of them. This technique is relatively new and also It's shocking.
In short, this is a perverted murder movie with the theme of murdering self-guided backpackers. It seems that when traveling to remote places in the future, you still have to pay attention to safety~HOHO~
