Discussing the film now also clears up conspiracy theories. I think it is possible.
To straighten out a conspiracy theory requires figuring out a contour and a premise of the story. Since the Germans, Soviets, and Koreans mentioned in the movie are all researching experiments on brainwashing people into simple, easily manipulated, walking dead people. So the Americans and the British are not far behind. Because it is helpful for interrogation and war.
Everyone knows what's going on on this island, but there are some people with a conscience. But under pressure from the government, he dared not speak out. Humanity can only be maintained in secret. These people long for this federal police to bring the truth on the island to the mainland. When Teddy first arrived, everyone pinned their hopes on him, but in the end everyone was discouraged from him.
Teddy's dreams do not count as reality or reality. It's just a dream. No one's dreams are the same as reality.
The protagonist of the story, Teddy, came to the island in a boat, and met his assistant Oli. Oli was actually a good person, but he knew that behind the conspiracy was the intelligence services of the United States and Britain, with powerful forces, so he could only help secretly. Ollie said Teddy was a legend, but Teddy was the only one on the island who noticed that he treated him as an important person. Ollie asked him if he had a girlfriend. Teddy said that when he was at work, his house caught fire and four people died. He emphasized that his wife choked to death. At this point he recalled that her wife had brought him a tie, and the look of the tie in the conspiracy theory was also the key to distinguishing reality. In fact, Ollie knew how the people on the island were going to lie to him this time, so he helped him strengthen the memory of Teddy and his wife. Teddy wanted to smoke. He had a cigarette on his body before he came on board, but he couldn't find it. Ollie reminds him that the hands and feet of government personnel are dirty, indicating that his cigarettes were stolen by agents. So for the next few days he can only smoke the psychotropic cigarettes provided to him on the island. Oli dared not give this point, because if Teddy went to the island with a clear mind, he would be in danger. There is a good example of Georginos leaking secrets.
When they first arrived on the island, they found that the island was heavily guarded, and there were really many prison guards searching on the way to the hospital, indicating that someone had really escaped on the island. At this time, they met the second good person, the vice president. Those prison guards may well be pretending to be unable to find escaped patients. Intentionally let go. At this time, he encountered a gesture from a female lunatic comparing him, realizing that the secret here could not be told, and he had to pretend to be confused. .
Entering Dr. Corey's office, the deputy warden pretended to inadvertently told Teddy that what happened here had something to do with the British and American intelligence agencies. And good luck to Teddy, you'll find good people here, they all want the truth to be revealed by Teddy, they all worry about Teddy, and they all wish him luck. Because they knew that Teddy came to the island to die. Then Dr. Corey started making up a story for him about a woman named Rachel who drowned her three children. It was at this time that Teddy heard the story for the first time, and it also affected his later deranged dreams. It is also found here that Teddy is indeed a police officer who hates evil, otherwise he would not have pursued the conspiracy of the island so tightly, causing panic among the people on the island. He advocates letting the peaceful life of criminals go to hell. That's when the strength of his first cigarette kicked in, and he asked for aspirin. Ollie was worried about him, but Dr. Corey was happy.
They checked that it was absolutely impossible for Rachel to escape, so a conscientious staff member must have let her go. Their search on the island can explain why the police were absent-mindedly throwing stones, and no one really searched Rachel again. The deputy warden deliberately did not inspect the cave, indicating that he still had a conscience.
At night he interrogated the nurses. The nurse mentioned that Rachel was worried about the rainstorm, because Rachel wanted to escape, and she was worried that she would not be able to escape if there was a heavy rain.
Later he went to Dr. Corey's house and met a German psychiatrist. Right after World War II, this German doctor may have participated in the brainwashing research of the Nazis in the past. They were brought to this island by the US and British intelligence agencies for research. Here, it is found that the protagonist Teddy's inner vigilance, precaution, and confrontation are very strong, and it is not so easy to brainwash. His heart should be a tenacious, independent tough, violent character. Then he got angry and said he was leaving and went back to report.
Back in the dorm, Ollie worries that he's leaving without getting the truth out, and Teddy says he's just bluffing. Then he started to dream. dreamed of his wife. At this time his love for his wife supported his subconscious, and although he had taken the island's medicine and had begun to lose his mind, it was not serious. His subconscious is still sober. His wife may have been a little depressed at the beginning, but Teddy just came back from the war and killed a lot of people, so he was drinking all day to relieve his boredom and didn't care about her wife's feelings. In the dream, her wife looked out the window, indicating that he and her wife might really spend a vacation by the lake. This scene also affected him and Dr. Corey's story of Rachel's drowning of three children. That is the scene of his last dream, murder by the lake. Maybe he and his wife just went there for vacation. Then her wife's back started to catch fire and was eventually turned to ashes. But in the dream, her wife's hair was wet, and water came out of her body. It turned out that he woke up and found that the roof was leaking and dripping on him. In the dream, his subconscious also emphasized that the murderer who set fire to his wife, Reds, was on this island. Reeds' identity is discussed later in the tomb scene.
He then began interrogating several patients, sometimes telling the truth. He hurried a male patient first, and then suddenly asked him if he knew Reeds. The patient was mad and angrily and said no. . He asked another female patient. The female patient was actually a normal person. He just killed her husband, pretended to be crazy and hid on the island. After staying for a long time, she was afraid of the world that has changed so much outside. The woman mentioned Dr. Sheehan and said Sheehan was a good man. It shows that the persecuted Dr. Rachel is not used to the experiment on the island, and it is likely that Dr. Sheehan helps her keep her awake. When I asked the normal female patient who Redes was, the female patient was afraid and said she didn't know. Seeing this, the madman Reeds expressed anger, and the normal female patient expressed fear. Teddy immediately felt that the patients on this island were trained not to mention Reeds.
Teddy then tells Ollie how his wife was burned to death by a lunatic named Reds. Then the two of them went to the cemetery in the rain, and Teddy told Ollie about Reeds he was investigating, and a voice in Reeds' mind told him to set fire to the school building and burnt two people to death. There is a scar on the head, and the two eyes are different colors. Then in the newspapers it was said that the man was being held on the island. That Reeds description states that Reeds had the brain surgery. Remember the brain surgery that Dr. Rachel described in the last cave, using an ice pick to go through one eye. So one of Reid's eyes is a fake eyeball. The head was also cut open for experimentation. Ollie immediately picked up the conversation and said that perhaps this Reds was dead. It's actually a reminder to Teddy.
Teddy, who was hiding in the tomb, said that before he tracked down Reeds, he also tracked down a college student named George North, who had done experiments here, and Ollie immediately said that it was a drug experiment. Then George, North's various bad behavior outside, attracted Teddy's attention, and investigation. Teddy had seen human-to-human torture in a concentration camp, and his sense of justice led him to trace it here. Ollie reminded him that there is such a coincidence that you came here, which is simply to discredit the national security department. There is no reason why Ollie is involved in the national security department. Ollie is worried about Teddy, saying that your constant inquiring about the island's affairs outside the island has attracted the attention of the security department. This is also why Ollie said at the beginning of the movie that Teddy was a legend, and that people on the island had been eyeing him for a reason to kill him.
Then he went to see Dr. Corey and found these doctors in a meeting. He hasn't said the content of the note yet, but someone in it said that Rule 4 is something I like. Explain that this note is the foreshadowing that these doctors are going to brainwash him. When he saw rule number 4, he kept thinking about the number 4 in his heart. In fact, these people wanted to put 4 numbers into his mind, because in the story they made up for him, in the end, his wife and 3 children died, a total of 4 personal. Patient No. 67, he was always thinking about who this patient No. 67 was, and finally it was convenient for those doctors to say that it was himself.
These people said that Rachel found it and played him a series, and he had a headache when he went back. He fell asleep after taking Corey's medicine. At this time, it should be noted that the woman and 3 dead children appeared in his dream, but they were not drowned at all. But the whole body is poured into a pool of blood. It shows that his derangement is more serious than his first dream. Because what he was dreaming was the imagination of the story Corey told about Rachel killing his three children at the beginning. But at this time, the normal part of his subconscious, that is, his love for his wife came to him in the rain, reminding him that his purpose here was to find out the truth of his wife's death.
When they woke up the next day, the hospital was flooded, and they sent Ori to lead Terry to the critically ill building C. A bald head made Teddy chase him, and then strangled Terry's neck to kill him, and said something weird about an atomic bomb and a hydrogen bomb outside. It's actually quite understandable. Someone scare the strong maniac that if he doesn't kill this teddy, he will be sent to the outside world with nuclear weapons. But this lunatic is afraid that there are so many bombs out there, and this fear makes him kill. But it didn't work out, and then he met George, North, the college student he mentioned in the crypt. It was he who brought Teddy's attention to the island. George, North is actually not crazy at all, just manic. His words can be regarded as the truth of reality. He kept calling Reeds because someone made him do it. He thought it was funny because the policeman who wanted to reveal the truth at the time had fallen into the maze himself. He said that Teddy's opponent was starting to attack him. He said he came back to the island because of Teddy's investigation. George is tortured for leaking the island's secrets to Teddy. He did drug experiments so he knew about Teddy's hallucinations, he reminded Teddy that her wife was dead, because he knew that these doctors were brainwashing people with the psychological trauma that people have had. But in the end, Georginos was discouraged. He felt that this Teddy was helpless, so he could only helplessly say Reeds. He also said that Reeds was not in Building C and was sent away. In fact, someone was trying to lead him to the lighthouse through George North, an old acquaintance of Teddy. So what Georginos says is half true and half false. That's why at the end Dr. Corey at the lighthouse emphasized their conversation time. I thought that the biggest problem with Georginos was that he said things that shouldn't be said.
So Teddy became wary and stopped smoking. That is to say, he is short of medicine. On his way to the lighthouse, he meets Rachel, the real doctor, and tells him stories about the island. Tell the audience about the patient's defense mechanisms. Said to first shock and then use an ice pick to penetrate the eyeball to scrape out the brain fibers. Corresponding to the description of the arsonist Redis in the tomb, he apparently had the operation. This real Rachel also said that the purpose of experimenting with people is to turn people into war machines. Seeing this, I want to emphasize that Teddy did not continue to smoke at this time, and he did not take medicine. He didn't dream at night either. Because his dreams never lasted from night to day. But this Rachel also persuaded him to leave. And the knowledge Rachel told him was real, something Teddy couldn't have imagined out of thin air. When he dreamed, it consisted of people he had seen, or things that had been mentioned. And the encounter with Zhen Rachel was not as chaotic as a dream.
In fact, combined with the conversation of his assistant in the tomb, the secret of the island has been revealed. The only suspense left by the director is what will Teddy do next. Escape from the island is impossible. Teddy is going to save his assistant Ollie.
When he came out of the cave, he met the warden, who was as bad as Mr. Corey. This person is a warmonger, violent, because Teddy has fought a war, and he can see through the warden at a glance. He sees that Teddy likes it very much. But his words are very strange, he is emphasizing advocating violence, pure violence. He likes Teddy because Teddy is violent, and he is happy because he thinks it would be fun if Teddy was experimented and turned into pure violence.
Then he spoke to Corey, who noticed that his symptoms were getting worse and his hands were shaking. He went to the men's lounge to retrieve his favorite tie, a gift from his wife, something from very real memories. At this time, the tie that he recalled when he came by the boat at the beginning, he also emphasized that her wife was choked to death by the fire. It's not a dream, it's his memory. His love for his wife supports the sane part of him, and he has no children at all. He then detonated a sedan, at which point he found himself starting to lose his mind, his wife holding hands with the corpse of the girl he saw in the concentration camp, and reality and hallucination began to confuse. He runs to the lighthouse and you will find that the doctor shows him no picture of his wife, because her wife was killed by the fire and there is no picture of the lake, and the three children were choked to death by the fire. Choking to death and drowning from fire smoke is not evident from that photo. So that little girl has a deep image of him. That photo was used to implant his dreams.
Then he began to dream, and it was his most deranged dream, as if it were real, but it was a dream after all.
Finally, he said a paragraph, I believe everyone remembers, that Sean was worried that he called him Teddy. . his real name. Ollie shook his head to Corey to show that the brainwashing failed and the warden was happy. Because the warden really wanted to operate on Teddy. But Teddy said something. Teddy knew he couldn't escape the island. Now there are two options for him, one is to resist to death, the other is to undergo surgery to become a zombie. I believe that according to Teddy's character of hatred and hatred, he will definitely choose the former. So I feel like he's going to kill the doctor and the warden a few times and get killed.
In the end, the conspiracy is that a college student, George Noy, volunteered to do drug experiments, and he behaved in a manic manner after he came out. Got targeted by this federal police officer Teddy. But George Noy refused to return to the island. Police Teddy says he can help him, so George Noe tells the island's secrets. It is said that this island is experimenting with living people as war machines. The manager Teddy, who hates evil, has experienced the tragedy of cannibalism by concentration camps, and does not want this kind of thing to happen in his own country. He decided to pursue it. attracted the attention of the security department. So they sent Redis, a patient on the island who had undergone surgery, to burn down his house, killing 4 people. His wife was burned to death, and in fact, 3 children were choked to death. The 3 in the photo. So he can dream every night. But he couldn't accept that he didn't care enough about his wife before she was alive, and the way her wife burned to black after her death. This is the real wound of his soul. When Redis set fire to it, it always felt like a voice in his head told him to do it. (Tomb dialogue) So he has been tracking down this Redis in order to avenge his wife. Later, I read the newspaper that Redis was on this island again. In fact, it was the traps made by the people on the island to deceive him. But in the end, Redis still maintained part of his sanity before saying that paragraph. He sure doesn't want to be The Walking Dead, and I have a feeling his character is going to fight it out.
