At the beginning of the film "Parasitic Beast", one of the unacceptable scenes appeared in the big N - unknown, creeping creatures, they seem to have suddenly appeared in human society from the sky, and they were very aggressive from the beginning to invade human beings. survive in the brain. At the beginning of the cannibalizing scene, I was so frightened that I almost cried out, and then I gradually got used to it. While watching the movie, I kept thinking, where did this creature come from? According to the cartoon description, this parasitic beast born from spores was born on its own in a certain corner of the earth. As the background of the story, no further description is given. So can it be considered that it is a creature created by the earth for cleaning? The "advanced age" of the earth for billions of years has been unable to withstand the load of human pressure, so it has sent extremely aggressive creatures without reproductive functions. This concept reminds me of Feitian Yexiang's "2013". The earth has life and thoughts, and it will respond to the behavior of human society. As the host, on the premise of ensuring human survival, it will also measure itself profit and loss. If the human population is reduced by one tenth, then pollution and resource consumption will also be reduced by one tenth. Is it the goal of the earth through the words of Tamiya Ryoko, and the ultimate peace may also be instructed by the earth, and it is subject to all kinds of human resistance struggles. Touched by behavior, it finally chooses to give in and forgive.
If you look at it this way, it may be better to understand why it is called an environmental film. The real opposites are the earth and human beings, and in this pulling battle, human beings have won a temporary victory.
Let go of these reverie that are not revealed in the film, there are also a series of interesting struggles and competitions in the return film itself. As the only lucky one, the protagonist did not have his brain violated, but his right hand was parasitized, and he even named the parasitic beast "Xiaoyou". When watching the film, I seem to pay more attention to Xiaoyou than the protagonist. After all, it is also a living creature, and it also has its own considerations for its own likes and dislikes. At the same time as the protagonist's inner complex changes, it is also gradually converging. Xiaoyou first came into contact with human society and learned the word "devil", which he thought was the most appropriate to describe human beings. In the eyes of parasitic beasts, I am afraid that they are normal, and human beings should go to hell eighteen times. When fighting with the first parasitic beast, Xiao You did not choose to give up the protagonist. Of course, the parasitic beast also has its own trade-offs. It thinks that the parasitic going there may fail, but the gains outweigh the losses. , although a little weaker. And later, I can't help but want to rush into the screen and yell at Xiao You, Hey! Have you forgotten your mission? After the protagonist lost his mother tragically, he embarked on the road of slaughtering parasitic beasts. Xiaoyou helped him to sense his companions without complaining. If the parasitic beasts do have feelings, then in this matter, Xiaoyou's inner drama is How is it? Tamiya Ryoko undoubtedly also has feelings, and it is her human child who inspires this feeling. The influence of this emotion even makes her already incomparably powerful to unload all her weapons and let the bullets of human beings hit her on her body. At this moment, what she thought about was to save the child's life, but her self and mission were gone. She is indeed a successful mother. Xiao You may not have too many deep feelings for the same kind, but beside the protagonist, it seems to share the same sorrow and joy with him, completely forgetting what his original invasion was for. They stand between parasitic beasts and humans, under the curious appearance, but doing hero-like things.
When Xiaoyou disappeared, the protagonist yelled at me how to forget you. It was a strange scene, but it made people burst into tears. That timid and cowardly man, when did he have such a deep bond with a parasitic beast? .
