      Looking forward to 3 revealing more mysteries and foreshadowing

      It is strongly recommended to read 1 and then watch 2, Easter eggs one after another, to ensure surprises.
      After watching 1, I can't help but think, except that the male protagonist at the end suddenly strangled old Mrs. Elis with a fierce look, and the reversal successfully made the audience scratch their lungs.

      The highlight of the film is the interspersed timeline and the overlapping of two parallel worlds. In the first film, the male and female protagonists heard a knock on...

      Many people say that when "Dad" was a child, his soul never came back and was possessed by an old witch, but it wasn't.

      After reading 1+2, I simply corrected a small problem. Many people said that "Dad" didn't come back when he was a child and was possessed by the old witch, but it's not.

      The ghost of the old witch wanted "Dad"'s body when "Dad" was a child, but didn't get it later, but the soul of "Dad" when he was a child did not return to his body, but was inexplicably caught by another passerby ghost , and then grew into a man, married and had children, and had his own family.

      From the...

      I will tell you one detail...

      I actually noticed that the actress of the ghost in white is the greedy lace sister of the paralyzed heroine in the curse of ghost baby, that is, the woman whose left eye was gouged out by chucky and died. The temperament and appearance of this woman have the potential of a ghost queen. In other words, in Asia, especially in the Chinese-speaking region, many actresses often appear in ghost movies, and they have the reputation of ghost queens. Europe and the United States rarely see similar.......

      guess! The franchise's hidden setting and a serious timing issue

      First, a spoiler alert.
      In this article, most of the plots of 1 and 2 are almost disclosed, so please avoid spoilers.


              This movie is not bad. After all, Wenshen produced it. Regardless of the plot, the light technique can also be very enjoyable. It really is an Asian who shoots European and American ghost movies, which combines the advantages of the East and the West. The logic and plot of Western horror films, the resentment theory and superb scaring techniques of...

      Viewability of the Personality Conjuration and Insidious series

      The conjuring of the soul is mainly based on the real supernatural controversial incident Enfield and other haunted events as the background of the film creation. It is the story of evil spirit possession, manipulation behind the scenes, a series of strange phenomena, and finally asking a psychic to help exorcism. Personally think, This story of the latent series is more creatively based. The protagonist's family inherits an ability, astral projection, which is a mysterious ability, that is,...

      The sound effects are top-notch, maintaining the level of the first film, but the atmosphere and rhythm are worse than the first film. Are the two exorcists who are added to be funny? = = There are Easter eggs at the end, looking forward to the third...

      The overall feeling is better than 1, but the two crossings feel a bit redundant, and I can't explain it at all. I look forward to the third...

      It is indeed much better than the first one. The hand-held photography style that imitates documentary horror films is completely integrated into traditional horror films. Coupled with the director's scheduling of space, several long shots made my palms sweat. I am envious of the skill of my eldest brother in such a dangerous and tense environment. In addition, the director really likes the setting of the three-person ghost hunt team. But I still feel that the latent series is not as good as...

      The tricks used in James Wan's horror films are actually almost the same. Some parts of this film are more like decryption of magic. Once the truth is known, it is meaningless. It is also a story about a husband who falls into a demon and kills the whole family. "The Shining" is much better than this...

    Behind the scenes gags

    1. When Spikes and Tucker walked into Alice's house, a painting of an African tribe hung on the wall. This painting also appeared in the second and third episodes of "Ling Dong: Ghost Record".
    2. Most of the footage of the film was shot in a hospital called Linda Vista Community Hospital.
    3. The wallpaper used on the computers of Spikes and Tucker is a photo of director James....

    Evaluation action

    On the surface, the scary tricks of "Latent 2" are also eternal. The female ghost floats, the lights go out, the piano plays automatically, the stroller walks around, the door opens and closes on its own, and there are ghosts that can only be seen in the photos and mirrors. The most exciting part of this movie is that it is not killed. The unbelief "rationality" is foolish, making the audience scolding stupid while rushing, and...

    • Josh Lambert: [hitting Renai] You're a miserable, ungrateful bitch. You have no idea how much you have wasted your life being afraid of the dead because pretty soon you're going to be one of them. And when I take you to my hole, in the dark, you'll realize how happy you should have been for your brief little moment in the sun.
