How does the film break expectations?
The narrative defeats all traditions in a film. traditionally the children in the film are the ones that are alive until the end. In this film the child is the first to die. the next to die is the father who traditionally would be alive to try and save the family.
The antagonists in the film dont come across in the typical slimey crazy way as a typical horror antagonist. The protagonists dont fit conventions either. The woman isn't very attractive and usually in a horror the people being tortured are good looking
What is he trying to make the audience think about violence?
He is trying to make it seem casual and meaningless. In a typical horror the violence will be much more extreme and will be focused on. When the women is pushed into the sea there is no shoot of her struggling instead they just film the two guys chatting about everyday stuff.
Do you think it is intentional shock?
I believe it was intentional they made it all obviously differnet and shocking to a normal film.
