  • "The Invitation" is a feature film directed by Karyn K. Kusama, starring Logan Marshall-Green and Tammy Blanchard , which was released in 2015.
    The film tells the story of Will receiving an invitation from Eden, inviting him and his current girlfriend Kira to join a party in the house where the couple once had happy and sad memories. In the middle of the party, David played a new scene in Mexico. The propaganda video of the religious organization then led everyone to play a game that revealed what they really thought in their hearts, but the so-called game seemed to gradually deviate from the direction of the story.

      See the devil

          The sufferings in this world are so heavy. Behind every irreversible sad story is unspeakable suffering. In addition to religious confession and forgiveness, sometimes we need to seek liberation beyond common sense.
          Just like the premeditated ceremony in "A Feast of Revenge".
          Fall into another world that has never been in contact with, devote yourself in a fanatical way to break with the past with another attitude. Even if it is not a cult who seeks money and...

      Remind the audience to stay vigilant

      I have been waiting for a magical answer, but finally got a tuoxiang. The movie basically means that a few people were brainwashed by the cult, and then they went to complete a task. For this task, those few people asked old friends they hadn't seen for a long time to brainwash or even kill them. But midway, Will found something suspicious, which finally led to a life-and-death fight. In the end the good man wins.

      At the end of the movie, I wanted to create the feeling of extreme...

      Despair will make people fall, make cities fall

      The plot of this movie cannot be said to be very exciting. You may feel that the first half is a long foreshadowing, and the rhythm begins to accelerate later. But after reading it, I felt very heavy, the feeling accumulated in my heart, a heavy and trembling of being defeated by reality. The protagonist Well seemed to become a bit nervous since arriving at his former home. There was a strange atmosphere throughout the banquet. Although his ex-wife Eden, her husband, and their new friends...

      What's bad is that it doesn't understand the meaning of the movie

      The director has too many metaphors. Below, I will explain and supplement the most concerned points.
      The story begins. Why did Will kill the coyote?
      The tone of the story’s development is pretty good. It’s in the evening, and the sky is darker, but it’s not gloomy. It's excusable to hit a coyote. It was unexpected that Will beat the coyote to death with a car wrench. Some viewers felt like this. This should be the foreshadowing of Will's accident, at least it shows that this...

      Praise the male protagonist for his alertness~

      With the thinking ability of a normal person, it is impossible to believe the cult described in the movie. It is obvious that Hu Tian is talking nonsense.
      But when people suffer from unbearable pain, especially when the male protagonist in the film loses his son,
      people’s hearts will become fragile and they will look for a way of salvation. It is easy to stray into a cult.
      Everyone has their own psychological endurance, and if they exceed their own endurance, there is no...

      The Chinese translation is a bad review. If it can't express the theme of the movie, don't translate it freely. The horror of indoor dramas is that you don't know what these people will do in the next second. Maybe the people who were chatting and laughing with you before will kill you in the next...
