      lack of human description


      This is an interesting movie. It describes that the population of a small town in Chicago has been only 436 people for decades. A census surveyor thought it was very strange, so he went there to watch the village and gradually discovered some secrets. .

      I watched it and thought it was a more interesting movie. I have seen similar movies such as "Spiritual Village", the style is similar, but the meaning of that movie will be more profound, but this one is simpler and clearer, and...

      this ugly but beautiful world

      436 is the population number specified after the town is rebuilt, and the three numbers correspond to the three sentences in a certain religious book. These 3 sentences are enshrined as the faith of the whole town and are instilled in the children's classrooms. 436, is a curse. The population of a town cannot be too large or too small. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. As the amount is exceeded, the town will hold a "celebration party" for outsiders. Before the meeting, everyone will...

      Deprivation of individual freedom of thought, leading to the destruction of humanity as a whole

      It's a town that doesn't allow free thinking, and every member's brain is flooded with the same beliefs. Any young people and outsiders who tried to break through these restrictions were mercilessly murdered by the town's rulers. Until the last 5 minutes, I thought this story would be a powerful proof that the single-consciousness rule would collapse and the people would choose freedom. However, when the person rushing out of the cage is crushed by the oncoming truck, I have to say, the story...

      Numbers rule the universe

      As always, American horror films, watching American films, is to watch horror films as thrillers, thrillers as dramas, dramas as pornographic films, and pornographic films as horror films...
      What is known as a masterpiece of inner horror and suspense , in my opinion, it's almost the same as Nick's "Frightening Island" before, the plot is good but it's a bit exaggerated when it comes to horror and awe, the main meaning is that there is such a place on earth where the population must always...

      fatal number

      Confused all afternoon. Son is out of school + horror movie = finally sober.

      The son entered the door sweating profusely, and the little white shoes turned into little black ones; the movie he watched was called "Breakout Population 436".

      A small town, for 100 years, has always maintained a total population of 436. A Chicago census taker came to work here, discovered this problem, and encountered a lot of incredible things. Gradually, he realized that the people of the small...
