"Live or die, make your choice"

is exactly this sentence, let the rebirth mastermind opened the prelude of this "killing game", the person chosen by him to participate in the game must choose to commit suicide or kill.



Most people are so ungrateful to be alive. Most people are ungrateful to be alive. That

's why he started the whole plan. He hopes that people can feel the preciousness of life and cherish the days they are alive. So far, all purposes and all thoughts are good. Unfortunately, he chose to use extreme methods to achieve this goal.



It is undeniable that we will all ignore the preciousness of life. We used to be like this, and we may also be the same now. A few can make us feel the preciousness of this life, only when we are sick or when a relative or friend dies around. However, if in order to prove that this life cannot be copied, instead of choosing to harm another life, wouldn't the price be too great?



This is the case for the mastermind in the film. He chooses to use a very extreme way to challenge the mental limits of the people selected to participate in the game. In his opinion, only this review is an extreme worship of life, and an extreme way. , It is necessary to exchange another life for one's own survival.



Taking ten thousand steps back, living is the best proof of life. Even in the process of living, there will be flaws and demerits, but they will not deprive this original right from footprints, and only living will create the greatest possibility and hope for a new return.





Choosing this kind of theme and this kind of performance to challenge the limits of the audience's heart may make the audience feel the theme of the film more deeply after the shock. I think this must be the consideration of the screenwriter and director.



Watching the movie over and over again, it is indeed a bit confusing, so I am very grateful to a friend of Tieba for sharing the plot series. I will share it again here.



Lawrence was a doctor who performed operations on John (the old man). John had cancer and was approaching an advanced stage. He tried suicide to end his life, but was saved. After that, he felt that he was reborn. He felt that he had realized The meaning of life, so he thinks he has to do something to let those who despise life know how to reflect on and cherish their own life (in my opinion it is all nonsense, the choices he gave, except for Amanda who can survive, There is no other test that allows people to survive. Even if they survive, they are still a person who takes their own life as the center. Moreover, no one has the right to play with other people’s lives, but there are many people who agree with him and regard him as one. Kind of missionary treat).
At the beginning of the film, Lawrence and Adam are locked in a secret room. Both of them have their feet locked with hard chains. There is a dead person on the ground. They got a tape reminder that this person is spreading venom all over the body. The only thing I can do is shoot myself (to reduce painful suicide).
Lawrence was prompted that he could escape by killing Adam before 6 o'clock. This is a test. Is it necessary to save himself with the lives of others or to ignore his own lives for others? (In fact, this so-called test is also very outrageous. Is it true that killing Adam Lawrence as John said is to win? It is to cherish life?) During the period, we can know that Lawrence works in a hospital and has a seemingly happy family, but Because he was embarrassing outside, it led to family disharmony. This is why John thinks he doesn't cherish his life. Adam is a private detective who makes money by photographing other people's privacy. This is why John thinks he wants to join the game. At the beginning, the two people in the same room seemed to have nothing to do with each other. It was not until later that we learned that Adam was originally sent by a black police officer to monitor and film Lawrence.
Here is another black police officer. The film uses a cross-memory shooting technique, which I think is a very good narrative method because it can make suspense repeatedly. The black police officer is the police officer in charge of the strange murders that happened in a row recently. He and his partner once found out the place of John's activities, and almost caught John, but in the end the black police officer's partner died in the process of hunting down. In the end, the black police officer also fell into a state of madness. He would not give up if he did not kill the murderer. However, due to his negligence and the death of his partner, he was disqualified as a police officer, and all pursuits could only be done privately. conduct. The reason he found Adam and asked Adam to follow Lawrence was because before he was in charge of this case, a flashlight was found on the scene of one of the cases (the one covered with flammable materials and burned by fire), and that pen-type flashlight was Lawrence. Yes, (in fact, this is to elicit a plot clue to the role of the doctor, and it is also a hint that John gave to the doctor Lawrence, implying that the series of strange killings are related to him or will befall him), the flashlight The emergence of the black police officer stubbornly believed that Lawrence might be the murderer, or that Lawrence would have something to do with the murderer, so after losing his position, the black police officer wanted to avenge his partner and pursue the case so that the truth of the case was revealed. Go to live opposite Lawrence's house.
Speaking of the back, Lawrence and Adam still failed to escape after a series of efforts, but Lawrence still did not choose to kill Adam (I feel shameful by killing Adam). At this time, it is Zepp who is watching them behind the mirror (zip ), Zepp is a nurse at Lawrence Hospital (but the significance of John's punishment is not explained in the movie), he is also a participant in this game, because he was injected with chronic toxins in his body, and he wanted to cure it. John must be helped with that series of activities, including the kidnapping of Lawrence's wife and children. Lawrence was originally a calm person, but after learning that his wife and children were trapped, he was obviously crazy, and his reason was not as clear as before. Especially after receiving a call and learning that his wife and daughter were in danger, he even took the action of breaking his leg (in my It seems that this is not unreasonable. There are indeed many ways to help him get the phone, but when a person is in such a frantic state, his sanity is inherently unconscious, and the sound of the phone interferes with his normal thinking. In such a situation Next, he did not just answer the phone, but also to get himself out of this place to rescue his family, so he used the act of sawing his legs). What Lawrence didn’t know was that while he saw his legs, his family had escaped the danger, and the black police officer who happened to be involved in Zepp’s assault was pursuing Zepp (because he lived opposite the Lawrence’s house, he found something wrong with the Lawrence’s house. Go and check).

Zepp finally killed the black police officer and rushed to the secret room, in order to follow the rules of the game, Lawrence, who did not kill Adam before 6 o’clock, must be killed (it is estimated that Adam must also die), but he Was killed by Lawrence and Adam (I don’t know if Lawrence’s shot at Adam was deliberately determined that he would not die or just didn’t kill him, but in that case, deliberately calculating... it’s difficult...) . Lawrence, who ended up cutting his legs, told Adam that he was going out for help, but in fact it has been determined here that he cannot come back alive (there are still online discussions about whether he died or not, I don’t think there is any need to discuss it. The film seems to be left behind. The suspense makes people speculate. In fact, it is already telling us that Lawrence is about to die due to excessive blood loss, and there is no time to call for help. Besides, he left the secret room and there is still a long underground passage. If he really escaped out of the secret room without death, Judging from the situation that he would rather find ways than to kill Adam, he will definitely find someone to rescue Adam, let alone a person who is in trouble.) Adam was left in the secret room by himself, and he found one from Zepp and gave it to Zepp. The tape recorder, they realized that the murderer they thought was not the real behind-the-scenes planner, but a chess piece. The real murderer lay in front of them from start to finish and experienced the masterpiece he arranged.
When John got up from the pool of blood and tore off his disguise, he said something that made Adam desperate. The key to unlock Adam’s feet was placed in the bathtub where Adam woke up in the first place, that is, when Adam got out of the bathtub. When Li woke up, and when the water plug was removed, the key had already been rushed into the sewer, which meant that his lock could no longer be unlocked unless he used an outsider.
In the test that John identified, Adam and Lawrence failed, so John said in the last Adam’s desperate cry: GAME OVER, and then closed the door of the secret room... The

sequence of the plot of Chainsaw 1 should be—

John got cancer-John tried to

die, but survived, reconsidered the meaning of life, and decided to use a series of activities that make people reflect on life-

John conducted the survival test of Amanda and others, and finally selected Amanda as him "Mission" assistant, Amanda and him arranged for Zepp to enter this "game". John was treated by Dr. Lawrence in the hospital——

When conducting the "flammables" test, John had already calculated the candidates for the next game, so he left Lawrence's flashlight on the scene as a hint. At the same time, the black police officer began to notice Lawrence-the

black police officer and his partner. The video suggests that John’s base was found, but the result was that two people were killed and one injured. After being removed from duty, the black police officer moved to the opposite side of Lawrence’s house for surveillance and found Adam for tracking shots-

John should have chosen Lawrence as his next target. Discovered the emergence of the new role of Adam, and selected him as one of the game participants-

Amanda captured Adam and Lawrence into the secret room, while John pretended to be dead and entered the scene-

Zepp was responsible for monitoring Adam and Lawrence, and at the same time using Lawrence. The family of

Lawrence was threatened- Lawrence saw his legs to escape from the secret room to save his family (in my opinion, picking up the phone is secondary)

-Lawrence did not complete the game mission, and Zepp failed to kill Lawrence's family. He was found by the black police officer and fled. Go to the secret room to kill Lawrence and Adam, but they are killed by Adam-

Lawrence wants to escape the secret room, Adam discovers the truth of the matter.

    Why doesn't the doctor use a saw to reach the phone?

  • Lolita 2022-04-23 07:01:10

    A neighbor asked "Why doesn't the doctor use the saw to reach the phone", I think the only thing one can think of when a person is completely broken down is to saw off his own leg and then kill the other party, so that he can go out and just get a call from his wife There is no real effect.
