BigBros147, let me give you one final example.

People that commit suicide by dangling from a rope hanging from an object, if you watch it in movies or see a video recording of the death, you'll realize that DESPITE the fact that they all wanted to kill themselves, immediately the oxygen stopped entering the body, they frantically started kicking their legs, struggling to breathe, and after a while, they give up. That moment of struggling, trying to fight to live is the handwork of the BRAIN doing its work. It's called survival instinct. Since the person wanted to die, why then was he struggling to live at the end? Why didn't he just relax and allow the rope choke him to death? It's because while he wants to die, the brain wants to keep functioning and will force you to try and breathe.

In short, it's the main reason the person chose to hang himself, to FORCE the brain not to try and stop him from not breathing. If not, na to just chill in his couch and stop breathing voluntarily if it's that easy.

Genre: Fantasy, Mystery, Horror


There is certainly a lot to like here, esp for horror faithfuls. It's super tense, violent. atmospheric, fairly unpredictable, and suspenseful. It started off as a slow-burn tense drama, casually meander it's way to an ominous mystery, before taking a sudden sharp turn to a full on, raging rock-hard horror. I think the movie lost a bit of clarity towards the end, though. It left way too much unexplained, and what they did show only made things all the more confusing. I think if they had shown less, i.e, kept things more ambiguous as to what was going on, it would have improved the movie greatly.


Overall, it's significantly better than most horror films I've seen of recent. I certainly appreciate the lack of jump scares (tantamount to physical tickling someone to laugh at your dry jokes), which I feel improved the horror aspect tremendously. At the core, it's an atmospheric mystery, but with an healthy helping of some element of the supernatural. Could have been a masterpiece, but solid nevertheless.

7/10

the same apply to people who were slaughtered or even have their brains blown away. The body jerks as reflex action. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Or are you telling me every body who was hung by the rope usually jerk their feet? Haven't you seen the instance were the person die instantly as a result or broken neck. Why didn't the brain try and stop the person then.

What many of you fail to know is that the brain doesn't always try to stop a person from dying, be it a gun to the head, intake of poison, slashing of the wrists, diving in a river full of crocodiles etc. There are many instance the brain can do absolutely nothing.

Have you asked yourself why some people turn and run when coming face to face with a lion, and others stand their ground and face the lion?

So as regard the bolded, I wonder how the brain would try and stop a person who slit his own wrist, voluntary and involuntary action, no?

If only you could apply this to yourself.

This even reminds me of someone who didn't want to accept that he was wrong in classifying a movie as sci-fi, despite all the explanations.

Lolz. I like this guy. Even though you're not making a lot of sense, I admire your mindless doggedness. You reminds me of a pitbull.

I take offense at your comment. How dare you call me a half baked troll?

Don't you know that I have both an MSc and a PhD in trolling studies? I am a fully licensed troll with experience and victims.


You can take ishiilove as a case study. Have you noticed that she barely comments here? When was her last film review on this thread?

Are you taking the piss or what? Did you even cross-check what you penned down? Despite my explanation, you're still asking these questions? huh


You're more confused than I thought. Who was arguing with you that the brain STOPS ALL KINDS OF DEATH? huh What are you even on about? The scenarios you described HAD NOTHING to do with the brain function, so why would anyone expect the brain to interfere?

You're not a kid, so you don't need me to tell you that the brain is not responsible for how people choose to kill themselves. Some people dive in front of a moving train to end their lives, some take poisons, some commit suicide by jumping from a high-rise building, some from entering a lion's den for them to be eaten. How on earth is the brain suppose to interfere in people's free will? Some people are atheist, while some are religious. It's their freewill.


In case you're finding it difficult to understand, let me make it as simple as simple can get; the brain can't interfere in those scenarios because it's not its job, but in attempting to drown or kill yourself by not breathing, the brain interferes because lack of oxygen is involved. Should I type it in pidgin or what? When one's throat is slashed or ripped open from a bullet hole (even if the person does it to himself) and he's still momentarily alive, the person will fight to breathe as the brain interferes. He must do it because the brain wants oxygen, he has no choice.


The height of confusion is laid bare in your first paragraph. It's so shocking that you missed the point despite having answered correctly. The person who dies by hanging with out struggling for air did so, according to you, because HIS NECK SNAPPED. How the fuck_ do you expect the brain to interfere when the neck had snapped immediately and killed him instantly? Do dead people struggle to breathe? If the neck hadn't snapped, the brain would've interfered. Why is this so hard for you to understand?


PS: I want to know, are you the same as Joseph1832?

don't sound like a conceited ape, koice. The post below was obviously referring to you. Everybody saw how you refused owning up to being wrong, despite when facts were shoved up your nostril like a snuff taker.

I find it amusing that ishilove still remain the yardstick with which you use in judging your trolling abilities, I mean, if after all this years, you're still hurting like a kid whose candy was stolen by a bully, it shows you really need help. Like serious help.

So, if you believe yourself to be a good troll, let's see how well you'd do against the likes of DissTroy.

Calm down. I was just stating the truth. I didn't even mention your name properly so that you won't see the comment.

You are past tense. I came to frustrate you on this thread and I did it. I have moved on.


By the way, you don't have a job. You are constantly broke. We both know you are engaged in typical Nigerian slave labour disguised as job. Ho w can 2500 Naira for a movie be luxury?

How can you deny our painful relationship? Have you forgotten how I turned you into a laughing stock over your ridiculous classification of movies? Even your right hand man had to set you straight.
