1. Create deep depression without sound
Most of the film is spent in extreme silence, and the silence reveals an unusual taste. As soon as you make a sound, you will be killed by monsters, and this silence is full of depression. The director set up several plots at the same time to make the film even more heavy: the father was unable to speak, and the daughter misunderstood that the father was blaming him; the mother stepped on a nail during childbirth and desperately suppressed her voice; the father sign language before his death Express his love for the child. These family relationships are severely oppressed by reality, and a trace of warmth is also shrouded and surrounded by darkness, which makes people feel extremely painful.
This movie is also known as the movie that dare not eat popcorn. The confined space of the cinema and its sound are extremely silent, creating a more silent atmosphere, and the audience is also immersed in the story, called the survivor who may die at any time.
Second, the sound performance is absolutely thrilling
Bad thrillers always abuse the sound, good thrillers always have the right sound. This film has more breathing sounds, footsteps, and the sounds of picking and placing things to create a more tense atmosphere in the quiet environment.
In the extremely quiet atmosphere, any sound makes people feel sudden and disturbing. For example, before the beginning, the younger brother's rocket suddenly sounded, and when there was a sudden sound in the film, a huge monster hit the audience's visual nerves with an ugly effect. Its bloody and extremely fast actions of killing children made people tremble. Quickly return to the silent environment, leaving behind extreme unease and horror.
Soundtime fills the silent void of the film. The father and son can only speak by the water. From the overall silence and silence of the movie, this period of sound time is extremely precious, but it also shows the terrifying power of the silent place to eat people, and the helplessness of human survival.
