It’s a pity that the picture can’t be posted.) The
film’s remarkable artistic imitations are at least pointed out by fans. The famous work "Shark" by Damien Hirst, the most popular installation artist in Britain. Another example is the scene of a woman being abused in the film. The girl has handcuffs tied to her neck and hands, and the girl stands in a posture that mimics the sculpture "Ballet dancer" by Degas.

There must be many more fragments of this kind. Since my knowledge of art works is still limited, I can't list them one by one. Some people may say this is plagiarism, but I think the director just borrowed other art forms (oil paintings, sculptures, installation works) very well to describe the essence of the movie plot in a dynamic film form. In any case, turning static works of art into dynamic movies is a very interesting attempt in itself. From the several imitation examples I have listed above, it can be seen that the objects imitated by the director are almost all surrealist works, except for Degas’s sculptures (and transforming a classic work into a deformed image of being abused in a perverted mind. Isn’t it a surreal change?), the reason for choosing surrealism is related to the director’s personal hobbies. On the other hand, I think that surrealism can better express human psychology: that illusory world. What's more, the spiritual world of a psychopath in the film.
Human beings have never stopped exploring themselves. There are still many unknowns in the research of brain and neurology. Such unknowns also provide artists with enough imagination space and stage. Therefore, whenever a new kind of The theory of brain science or the proposal of new mental and neurological concepts is not only an event in the category of life sciences, but also a social and humanistic phenomenon. Many mainstream views of contemporary cultural thoughts are found in Freud's "Psychoanalysis", an Austrian psychiatrist, and his famous academic work "Analysis of Dreams". It can be said that the artistic development of the human mind often draws on the academic viewpoints of the Buddha, including the famous Hitchcock who could not wait to work with the surrealist painter Dali who was deeply influenced by the theory of "psychoanalysis" after the war. Lloyd’s point of view shot his famous "Doctor Edward", and a large number of Heath’s films later reflected similar themes, such as the famous "Mentally Ill", "Dizziness", "Rear Window", etc., all hidden The fashionable view of contemporary psychology. "Invasion of Brain Cells" is another fashionable work that has explored psychological issues in recent years. It describes some subconscious elements of human thinking with its shocking expressions and eye-catching images. It is not so much the film. A commercial entertainment film packaged with criminal themes is rather a concrete manifestation of the most terrifying scene in the inner world of people. Although this film is regarded by many media as a vainly fashionable gadget, it is undeniable that the visual effects created by the famous director Tason Singer who played MTV for this film are definitely worth the price. Yes, this is also the best skill of MTV and commercial film directors who take visual effects as their responsibility.
