    Horror master John Carpenter tells the brainwashing rule of the government on the people through the outer skin of sci-fi horror films. What he sees and hears has another meaning - obey. The super-long scuffle in the middle of the movie can be seen as a struggle for the brainwashed to awaken their self-consciousness. Unfortunately, the intention is too obvious, and the second half of the plot...

    Does the prince and general Xiangning have a kind? Not only kind, but also extraordinary people... The powerful, powerful mouthpieces, media industry, and powerful lackeys state machines are all humanoid and non-human, and use science fiction films to attack capitalist business logic and class order-consumption and obedience are necessary to live; "It talks about ideological infiltration and the awakening of my mind. This is a bit like saying: The proletariat of the world unites! There is a...

    A humble dystopian fable with a straightforward meaning. The middle class has disappeared, and the class has become polarized like two species. The bottom layer is in a state of being brainwashed, blinded and enslaved. It is worth mentioning that wearing glasses and seeing the truth after propaganda and advertisements, to consume, to give birth, to sleep, to believe in money, etc., are all the affectionate calls of the sickle to leeks....

    What a concept, with special glasses, you can see who is the invading alien and who is the aboriginal. In the middle of the film, the male protagonist A asked the supporting actor B to wear these glasses, but the supporting actor B refused to put on the glasses to see if he was killed. For this reason, the writer and director arranged for them to fight for a full seven minutes, and finally B put on the glasses. In less than a second: oh shit, how could it be. When I saw this, I knew this movie...

    Feel the extreme space

    Purely ideological films were not refreshing in the era when Hollywood blockbusters were popular in the United States. The film tells the story of an unemployed male protagonist who accidentally obtained a pair of sunglasses. Wearing it can clearly see the ideology behind the material, only to...

    Chosen reality

    Actually, I didn’t treat these skeleton-shaped creatures as aliens at first, and I never had this idea. I subconsciously regarded those creatures as human beings that are different from us but belong to us. They are humans, but they are different. Appearance, maybe, the concept of class has...
