The ancient evil god is me

I learned a little about the plot before watching it, so I knew that the protagonists were going to play five tarot-looking characters like "virgin, whore, athlete, scholar, fool". , the male characters are classified by character and knowledge, while the female characters are defined by the amount of sexual experience. Looking at it, I suddenly found that I was expecting these characters to play stereotypes, and the stereotypes in my heart were not the audience themselves?

While watching the movie, I saw the line "The ancient evil god will wake up and bring painful death to every soul", I imagined a giant squid, but finally came out a giant titan. After reading it, I thought about it again. In order to please the Titans (horror movie fans) who control the world (horror movie industry), the executive departments (horror movie production teams) of various countries catered to the Titans and expected to perform a sacrifice, and the Japanese ones played female ghosts. In the United States, zombies are played, and the characters are all based on audience stereotypes. The audience can play whatever they want to watch, without the dignity of the creator and the principle of the expressor, only to please the audience's desire to survive. Although this movie is not scary at all, it is a good satire.
