Biehn. Usuku lomgwebo luphumile kwigumbi elingaphantsi kwaye lubuyile kwiscreen, ukungqina kwakhona ukuba uJanuwari yeyona nyanga imbi kakhulu yokuphinda ufunde kwakhona. Yonke into oyifumanayo yingqushu eyayingalunganga ngokwaneleyo ukuba ingakhutshwa ekupheleni konyaka odlulileyo. Lindela i-dregs kwiiveki ezizayo, kodwa ndingatsho ngokukhuselekileyo ngaphandle koloyiko lokuba akunakulunga ukuba mandundu kune-lurid, i-lewd kunye ne-shockfest shockfest ebizwa Yahlula-hlula.
Ngaphandle kwemifanekiso embalwa yokubanjwa kwangaphambi kokuthenga ngetyala kwamaxhoba atshisayo kunye nokukhala bezijula ezinyukweni zokuqhekeka kunye nokuqhushumisa kwezakhiwo zaseNew York ezikufutshane kakhulu kwi9 / 11 ukuba uninzi lwababukeli lunokubukelwa, le bhanyabhanya yoyikekayo ayinabuntu kwaye ayikho enye into. kunesinye isilayidi esitshiziweyo kunye ne-dice horror flick, kuphela ngama-100 amaxesha amabi ngakumbi, anobundlobongela, ngokucacileyo ngokwesini kunye nokudakumba ngokuzingca kuninzi. Kwiintsuku ezisemva kokuhlaselwa kwenyukliya, abantu abasithoba bahlangana ndawonye kwigumbi elingaphantsi komhlaba elingaphantsi kwesakhiwo sabo saseManhattan, bengakwazi ukuya kwilizwe langaphandle ngenxa yothuli olusasazeka ngemitha. UMichael Biehn udlala uMickey, intsumpa ebukekayo yento eyayisakuba sisakhiwo esingentla. Idilesi ngqo yile, ukuchaneka, ikona emantla ntshona yeFifth Avenue kunye ne-29th Street, ke ukuba uhlala apho (okanye wazi nabani na owenzayo) ungaqala ukucinga ngokudilika kwamaxabiso ezindlu kunye nokwenza izicwangciso kwangoko.
UMickey ebegcina ukutya kunye nezinto kwindawo yokuhamba ekhuselekileyo. Xa abaqeshi abasele benovalo bekhula bengenaloyiko kwaye besoyika yindlala, imiqondiso yeselfowuni efileyo, akukho manzi okanye umbane nayo yonke indlela yokuphuma itywinwa nge-tape tape, unokucinga ukuba kwenzeka ntoni xa befumanisa iinkonkxa ezingavulwanga zehagu neembotyi. Ukwenza izinto zibe mandundu, uMickey uyakuvuyela ukuchaza iinkcukacha ezixhalabisayo zento eyenzeke kumaxhoba enyukliya eJapan naseChernobyl. Cwangcisa uyilo lwamagumbi ombane, abiyelwe ngeethayile ezimdaka kwaye aqhagamshelwe yimibhobho erusi, yenza ukuba ifilimu ibe mbi ngokungathandekiyo ukujonga (konke kukhumbuza kakhulu iintolongo Wabona I-franchise), kodwa i-claustrophobia yongeza ngokufanelekileyo ekuchukumiseni ukuchukumiseka kwemozulu kunye neparanoia ekhulayo. Akunakuphepheka ukuba into eyoyikekayo ekugqibeleni iyakwehlela uMickey, kodwa ixesha lokubaleka leeyure ezi-2 kwimizuzu emibini lide kakhulu ukuba ulinde. Ukuhamba okuninzi kuqikelelwe.
Ngubani otshabalalisa iplanethi ngeli xesha? IMartian? Abanqolobi? Isizwe esikhohlakeleyo? Akucaci, nokuba utshaba lungena kwigumbi elingaphantsi komhlaba lunxibe iminqwazi yemitha kunye neesuti ze-hazmat, lurhuqa umntwana okuphela kwakhe kwigumbi elingaphantsi komhlaba kungekho sizathu sihambelanayo. Oku kuguqula umama wentombazana kwi-psychotic yesini (edlalwa nguRosanna Arquette, natch, obesoloko esondelelene ngokusangana). Ukufana phakathi kwe- Yahlula-hlula kunye nezinye izinto ezimbi zokuphela kwelizwe njenge Abantwana beMfazwe, ubuMfama kwaye Ihlabathi, inyama kunye noMtyholi zicacile, kodwa umahluko omkhulu kwi Yahlula-hlula kukuba kuncinci malunga nokubalisa ibali elinomdla elisekwe kwimbali yesayensi kunokuba kunjalo ekufumaneni ii-clichés kunye nokukhupha ngokurhabaxa iindawo zokumisa ukubona ukuba iyothusa kwaye iyacaphukisa njani into enokubangela impikiswano xa kungekho enye into esebenzayo. Abalinganiswa besitokhwe-umntu owalupheleyo ocekisekayo, ongonwabanga kunye nomyeni wakhe okrelekrele, umntwana okhalazayo nonina ojika ngokungathandekiyo abe sisondo esivuthayo, umntu omnyama ovela kumbindi ophakathi, ii-hood ezimbini ezingagqibelelanga ezigqibela ngokunxiba iilokhwe kunye Ngumntu olungileyo kuphela onekhampasi yokuziphatha-uphembelelwa yiparanoia ibe ziingcungcu ezenza indlu enegazi I-Texas Chainsaw Massacre jonga njengababhali beLigi encinci. Ngethuba besika ii-cadavers ezibolayo zabangeneleli kwaye bephosa iziqwenga kwitanki yokubolisa, andisakwazi ukubukela kwakhona. Ndithathe ikhefu lokwamkela, ndabuya, kodwa xa abasindayo bajongana, izinto zijike zangcungcutheka. I-Sodomy, udlwengulo lweqela lemigulukudu, ukunqumlana iminwe yabanye-awuzibuzi nje kuphela ukuba banokuthatha okungakanani, kodwa kangakanani wena ingathatha. Ukwabelana ngesondo kunye nokuhlukumeza kuyaqhubeka, kwaye ugcine iso kwitanki yokubolisa. Kubonakala ngokucacileyo. Ukuba injongo kukwenza ukuba abaphulaphuli bagule, Yahlula-hlula uyaphumelela.
Umnumzana Biehn utya ubuhle bendalo, kodwa ngethamsanqa uchitha isiqingatha sesibini sebhanyabhanya ebotshelelwe esitulweni. Eminye isamente iyazika kwi-cesspool yokonakala. Umlawuli weli doti lingenantsingiselo, linobunkunkqele ngu-Xavier Gens. Umgca wethegi yakhe kukuba usinde kwisiphelo sehlabathi kufuneka uqale usinde omnye nomnye. Akukho mntu usindayo nantoni na Ukwahlula, kubandakanya nabaphulaphuli.
