On how to make small productions look good and unconventional

There are no big scenes that go into the sky, no colorful characters, no complicated plots and long lines, only four people and one dog in the secret room can shoot the thrilling tension that does not lose the big production. The director and screenwriter's The narrative power is evident.

What is even more rare is that the characters in the film get rid of the face and simplification of ordinary horror movie characters. For example, the heroine is greedy for money but insists on saving the trapped hostages in the cellar. , For example, the veteran is ruthless but insists not to rape (to be honest, when I first saw the cellar woman, I also took it for granted that it was a slave X).

Human nature is inherently complex and difficult to describe in a single word, and this low-budget thriller takes care of that well.
