Those who can make the topic bigger and evolve it into a social problem, often aim at some kind of original sin and produce some kind of karma, such as "There are Eyes in the Mountain" (nuclear test problem) and "Master Key" (racial problem), this is considered time Line of horror films; the other is targeted at specific areas, often marginalized savage land, such as "Devil's Ruins" (pull gourmet plants) and "Terror Zone" (African infectious disease), this is regarded as a spatial line Horror movie. Both of these are revealing and criticizing the sins of the entire country or society.
However, the biggest problem is not to put fear into history and wilderness, but to pull it back and put it around us. Such fear is not only for the entire society, but also for each individual. "Lake of Eden" is undoubtedly At the entry point of the subject matter, he captured the most crucial sense of horror-the brutality of human nature.
This barbarism is neither the eight-nation coalition in the yellowed history textbook nor the mountains and old forests far away in Africa. This barbarism is in everyone's heart. Although the story of "Lake of Eden" still takes place in a similar wild countryside, among a group of relatively vulgar and ignorant people, but like the resonance of the audience, each of us may have encountered it more or less in childhood Similar dangers of violence. Maybe it happened on the streets most developed and civilized cities, perhaps in your school or your child's primary school near the corner of the alley ......
Guangdong Kaiping violent gang rape school girls video, touch milk door, Ma Jue Cases, American campus shootings, in today’s so prosperous and civilized China and the United States, continue to occur one after another, reminding us time and time again: Although there are many high-rise buildings, although the automobile and bungalows, although the democratic rule of law, barbarism has never been caused by economic and social Develop and stay away from us. The transformation and evolution of the human mind is cleared and revived at the moment every child is born, just like Sisyphus pushing a rock up a mountain in Greek mythology. It is an endless proposition for this society to move toward civilization.
Regarding the brutality of human nature, the realistic and implicitly symbolic story of "Lake of Eden" is far better than the conceptual and straightforward exaggerated "Born Murderer" and "Kill Bill". It is similar to a fable that suggests two things to us. One question: What is the responsibility of adults (parents and society) in the face of ignorant and unruly children? Another question is, what should civilized people do in the face of barbarism? These two questions are undoubtedly not clear in one or two sentences. Perhaps many people will say that those children are bad because "there is a father, there must be a son." "The child of a mouse will make a hole", but if Keep asking, why is there such a father? Is this just the ignorance of a specific area and a specific community? How does each of us treat our own children and the children of others around us in every detail of life? How do we teach by example?
For the second question, it is more tangled. Watching "Lake Eden" is like watching "Hurricane Rescue". Under the director's guidance, the audience is naturally excited, so it is natural to "kill red eyes" with the righteous in the story. To those villains, Can't wait to kill and then quickly. But calm down and think about it, how is this different from those children who abuse and kill the male lead for revenge on the dog? Some people will say that if a kind person treats a vicious person with compassion, he will only die more miserably. They can only use violence to violent, and even more determined and decisive than the bad person, like Eastwood in "Unforgivable" , So that the kind people can survive. But is the kind person who survived the use of violence or the kind person in the past?
Maybe when the actor in "Lake Eden" was interrupted by a group of late children by the lake, he used to greet him enthusiastically, send some snacks or beer, compliment the puppy, talk about rock music, and give the children one The impression of friendliness and affinity, don’t be so self-sufficient, not tolerate, adults train children, as if this beach is naturally your own tone, see children there, behave carefully, don’t be so irritated, don’t If you hugged the woman and dived into the water proudly, maybe the group of children would not steal his car, and there would be no dead dogs and dead people behind.
Savage has never been far away, and it threatens us all the time and everywhere in people's hearts. Using evil to destroy good, annihilate the body, and destroy civilization may be as easy as a mountain down; but using good to tame evil, transform the mind, and rebuild civilization is just like pulling a cocoon. It requires patience, delicacy, tolerance and spirituality, and requires deep-rooted strength and compassion.
