heavy taste warm film

Last semester, I saw the short film "Alive in Joburg" made by this director in STASH's collection. When I started watching it, I was confused. I thought it was the trailer and trailer for the movie. Later, I looked behind the scenes and found that everything from stones to cars was made of stunts. It is said that the budget of "The Ninth District" is 3000W, and it is estimated that most of it will be used in the later stage. The movements of those grasshoppers were captured very well, and the details of the movement of the mouth were made fine. Then, the special effects of the heavy taste part and the weapon spaceship shootout part are quite satisfactory, not too gorgeous, but they look really in place, and the heads that should be exploded are exploding.
Blomkamp and Peter Jackson originally wanted to make "Halo", but they were cut in half and the budget was suddenly reduced. But from Blomkamp's collection of short films, everyone discovered the prototype of the story of "District 9", and made such an original film with a relatively small budget by accident. I think if "Halo" is successfully filmed, it may not get as high a rating as "District 9" (the fate of game adaptation movies has never been very good, and it is a hardcore game like "Halo" - - ).
But there are still a lot of halo shadows in this movie, especially on the weapons, the stun gun, the microwave gun, and the alien's hand, but the design of the humanoid combat armor is very mainstream, too mediocre, it should be a little more cocky.
I won't talk about the plot to avoid spoilers. I just want to say that this film is really heavy, especially after watching it. Specifically, various headshots and dismemberment, alien cannibalism, human-eating aliens, alien autopsy without coding, interracial prostitutes, interracial post-entry.
As for why the location is South Africa, I think there are two reasons. One is innovation. Everyone is used to seeing the White House being bombed, the Statue of Liberty being headshot, the Eiffel Tower being cut in half, and the pyramid collapsed. To give the audience a new feeling, not conventional. And actually I think he did too. The second is the issue of race. A film that discusses the relationship between extraterrestrial races and human beings reflects various real issues, and then places the location in South Africa. This is also an arrangement of the director. You can see the name of his original short film. , also has some meaning.
In short, I think I haven't seen such a good alien movie in a long time. Aside from all the heavy tastes, it is actually a warm story about a father and son and a husband and wife. I really hope there will be a sequel!

PS. Those prawns are male and female, so do they have one hole or two holes? Grasshoppers all have a hole, so it's sodomy no matter what, how does an interracial prostitute go to work? It's so tragic.
