The subject of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub’s Der Tod des Empedokles (The Death of Empedocles, 1987) is the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles (c. 490 BC – 430 BC), who lived in the Greek colony of Agrigentum in Sicily. His theories are mentioned in several of Plato’s dialogues. He maintained that all matter is made up of four irreducible elements: water, earth, air and fire. A mystic and a poet, he is considered to be the founder of classical rhetoric. He is also thought to be the last Greek philosopher to write in verse; two fragments of his works survive: Katharmoi (Purifications) and Peri Phuseôs (On Nature). An advocate of democracy, he came into conflict with his fellow citizens of Agrigentum and, as result, was banished with his young disciple, Pausanius. When he was asked to return, he preferred to commit suicide by throwing himself into the active volcano at Mount Aetna.
The German writer Friedrich Hölderlin wrote two versions of Der Tod des Empedokles in 1798 and 1800, and a final third version in 1820, all three ultimately unfinished. They were conceived as five-act tragedies and all three differ in plot. According to Michael Hamburger, Hölderlin’s English-language translator,
the main reason why Hölderlin finished no version of the play must be that he remained too closely identified with Empedocles, at the very period in his life when his own view of the poet as philosopher, prophet and priest – and as tragic hero – was subject to perpetual crisis and re-examination.
Huillet-Straub’s The Death of Empedocles is based on Hölderlin’s first version (the longest of the three), whereas Black Sin is based on the third version.
三星半 倒还是有跟第一部衔接起来，第二部的反派更加强悍，盲人老头就显得弱了一些。片名不如第一部贴切
不如前作，但是给老大爷安排了一个班的兵力，未免太欺负孤寡老人了吧！喂~还是值得一看。其中狗狗的叛变，莫名的喜感。——20210910
看到一个小时就从屋里出去了 我还在担心后面能怎么吓唬我 事实证明我还是太年轻！人能有多坏 我确实没估量到。小萝莉挥刀斩她妈胳膊 砍死她爸 真过瘾！当成年人的世界已经污秽不堪 孩童又怎能保有童真！
少了第一部结构精巧一波三折的密室逃脱设定，这部就成了纯血浆片，唯一像第一部出现过很多次的灵光一现片段大概是狗子的 go away and stay 的那条转折吧。
没能延续第一部那种密闭空间内布置悬疑的思路，反而是走虐杀血腥路线了，女孩被老兵操练那么久，战斗力没表现出来，只是在结局完成了弑父动作，制毒双亲不如盲眼养父的故事还是太刻意。
两星都给影片节奏。剧情...有点恶心。这个孩子的人设真的恶心的...算了，还是给一星吧。这个电影的主题是弑父？小男孩害死自己爹，女主害死老板。
这么多年过去了，密闭空间困兽斗、逼仄环境内血腥屠杀这类套路的片子，无论从想法、空间设计还是血腥程度，最好的还是《夜魔1》，珠玉在前，所以看《屏住呼吸1》的时候都没觉得特别惊艳，给了3星，可能跟当时预期过高有关，而这次的《屏住呼吸2》则干脆搞起了温情，老爷爷战斗力已大幅降低，血腥指数也不够，很多地方都是粗暴的硬碰硬，没发挥好盲人退伍老兵身在暗处利用听觉、敏锐洞察力和环境杀人的优势，因此也就浪费了第一部建立起的“屏住呼吸”主设定，相当于自废了武功。第一幕还算中规中矩，惊悚动作片常规拍法，有抓人的气氛和不错的长镜头设计，但随着感情线的铺开，片子基调就慢慢软化了，像泄气的气球，慢慢消掉。最后，作为养狗人士想吐槽下，片中反派这只狗的种种行为有些违背常理了，太想当然了。
省流小助手：你大爷还是你大爷，永远别对单身男人的狗下手
Salvation. 比前作强多了。Don't Breathe、Lights Out一直分不清，还有个It Follows，321星递减。主题架构类似卢克·埃文斯的《无人生还》。年近七旬的史蒂芬·朗真·廉颇。
唯有视死如归，让争议得以平息，以及你永远可以相信狗狗通人性。节奏稀巴烂，不妨碍老爷子帅帅帅！！！
3.5 惊悚爽片，过瘾的虐杀戏，非常沦丧的道德——母亲要取女儿的心脏为自己续命，女儿剁了母亲的手还亲手杀了父亲，这种剧情真敢想，也真不错。
钛流水账了，就单纯的打打打打打打打打，关键打的也不算好看(她傻逼爸妈的地下室打斗一幕还可以），没有一点儿第一部的紧张刺激感了。
惊悚片转变为b级动作片，很无聊的狗尾续貂，这种救女儿的剧情，飓风营救都出到第三部，杀破狼都出到了贪狼，真的毫无必要。完全破坏了第一部带来的新鲜感。
黄昏打斗 夜下飙车
卧槽！为什么要杀狗啊！！！狗可是她唯一的朋友了！！！真的毫无人性！！！而且老兵到最后都没杀狗，甚至放狗一条生路，这鲜明的对比。亲生父母太可怕了，十个恶人里还是有一个好人的，真不容易。老兵这结局也是必然的，算是为第一部赎罪吧。女孩是挺惨的，认识的人都死了，最后只能孤身一人重新开始，给小女孩拍部电影吧。。。走的时候把狗带上啊喂！！！！
比上一部略微不足，但是还是惊呼编剧可以继续讲下去！老头开始变成好人了吧，弱势群体值得关注，发起狠来什么都不怕！结尾彩蛋貌似会继续拍吧！
小孩儿有时候坏事儿，有时候又挺可爱的，可爱的时候更多吧
没想到续集变成了不要呼吸之last of us大爽片，这嘴巴和鼻子被封上胶水，同伴来了直接用螺丝刀在脸颊上戳个洞，这么暴力至于吗。。。。。
看完这个电影，我真心觉得吴京说的太对了。一个美国瞎老头都能打一群人，吴京又不瞎为什么不能打
