What we fear may be ourselves, what we avoid may be the truth

"The Island": a typical low-budget suspense horror movie

"The Others" was released in 2001. It is impeccable in terms of plot design and actors' acting skills. It can be regarded as a model and benchmark for psychological suspense thrillers. As a low-budget movie (the entire movie is almost nothing but the interior of the big house, plus a little foggy scene), it grossed $200 million at the box office. This film has no special effects of dazzling skills. It mainly relies on the advancement of the plot, the scenes and the faint background music to set off the atmosphere, and relies on the wonderful acting skills of the leading actors in silence to set off the appearance of horror and terror.

The script of this film is very creative, which makes people gradually deepen in the slowly advancing plot, and finally reveals the mystery, which makes people suddenly realize, sigh and admire the creativity and logical conception ability of the screenwriter and director.

What we fear may be ourselves, what we avoid may be the truth

Finally, I quote Bian Zhilin's "Broken Chapter": You look at the scenery on the bridge, and the people who look at the scenery look at you on the bridge. The bright moon decorates your windows, you decorate other people's dreams.

    Facts have proved that the howling of ghosts and wolves in the food stalls of Dadonghai Square, the loud public announcement of mobile singers, and the iron chain of another taekwondo stage are much scarier than the sound effects of the movie.
