      Born to be human? (Some conjectures about Cthulhu)

      Although I only know Cthulhu roughly, this first Crusu movie I came into contact with (no matter the shape of water) has shown me the horror and seriousness of this subject. The fear that this film brings to me lies in the denial of "me".

      The first is the denial of human life. The most obvious denial is the evolution from the legs of terrestrial animals to the antennae of marine organisms, and the evolution from terrestrial organisms to marine organisms. Therefore, to worship Dagon, we...

      One of the few good horror movies I watched recently

      First, the priestess is very beautiful.
      Second, the ending is quite unexpected and unconventional.
      Third, there are religious things in it. After reading it, people have some thoughts in their minds.
      Fourth, there are all the bloody elements that should be there.

      I like it very much. But look at the Peas Friends score, it's not very good, and no one has read it. Of course, after all, most people still don't even have the courage to look at the "mountain teacher". There...

      Luo-style horror with insufficient completion

      This is a Cthulhu style movie.

      The traces of the novel "The Haze of Innsmouth" can be clearly seen, and there is no doubt that the script is based on this novel. But the Cthulhu-style horror is obviously not reflected in this movie.

      The horror of Cthulhu mythology lies in the "atmosphere." Horror existences like the "old ruler" often do not reveal their real body, but highlight their horror through hints or traces left, such as Deformed human believers (deep divers in this film),...

      About Ancient Fish People folklore

      There has always been a record of the fish people in the ancient books of the East and the West.
      This kind of race existed as early as 4600 years ago during the era of the Great Flood.
      They are mysterious and evil
      . Noah who saved humans and creatures in the flood was the murloc. Secretly helped and eventually overthrew its leadership position, and built the first generation of human civilization after the Flood, the ancient Lianghe civilization. . .
      The most famous murloc...

      Eun is still good~

      In 2001, the suspenseful thriller fantasy horror movie " Forbidden Area | Dagon "

      It’s a movie more than 10 years ago and it’s still 18 banned. It looks okay now, but it’s already very sharp as the standard of more than 10 years ago. It’s an adaptation of the Cthulhu mythology. Maybe everyone is not familiar with it. Mention the World of Warcraft. The ancient god (C'Thun), it is estimated that many gamers will understand that the ancient...

      The pirate myth of Klusuyu is okay, with gorgeous props and makeup, but the real part of the plot is obviously that the tentacles are developed and the brain is hypoxic, all kinds of superfluous superfluous but can not stand scrutiny, maybe the screenwriter is all cuttlefish juice poisoning too...

    Movie quotes

    • Uxía Cambarro: Before you came, there had been no sacrifices for a year. Dagon needs her.

      Paul Marsh: Fuck Dagon!

      Uxía Cambarro: Yes, and their child will be immortal!

      Paul Marsh: Yeah, but there's a catch. It has to live the rest of its life as some kind of half-ass fish of the sea.

      Uxía Cambarro: [agreeing] In joy, with Dagon!

    • [last lines]

      Uxía Cambarro: Pablo, it is your destiny.

      Paul Marsh: You stay away! I'll kill you all! I'll burn this fucking town to the ground!

      Uxía Cambarro: We had different mothers, but the same father. We are children of Dagon.

      Paul Marsh: You're a bunch of freaks. A bunch of fucking freaks!

      Uxía Cambarro: Your dreams. Remember your dreams, Pablo. They brought you here.

      Paul Marsh: No. They were nightmares. They weren't real.

      Uxía Cambarro: Every dream is a wish.

      Paul Marsh: [Paul collapses] Somebody help me! What's happening to me?

      Uxía Cambarro: You are my brother. You will be my lover - forever.

      Paul Marsh: [setting himself on fire] No possibilities.

      Uxía Cambarro: Pablo! No! No! No!

      [she drags him down into the sea where the flames are extinguished, and they swim away into the depths together]

      Intertitle: "We shall dive down through black abysses... and in that lair of the Deep Ones we shall dwell amidst wonder and glory forever." - H.P. Lovecraft

    • Uxía Cambarro: You cannot care for her. You do not dream of her! You will go soon to a beautiful place. You will forget your world and your friends. There will be no time, no end, no today, no yesterday, no tomorrow - only the forever and forever, and forever without end. It is your fate. It is your destiny.
