      [I wrote a film review for the first time, I guess it would be incoherent...but no one would have read such an old movie...]

      It was during safeway on sale (yes! Safeway!) and saw that the price was cheap. I looked at the content and bought it according to my taste.
      When I returned home, my mother scolded me like a waste of money + psychological pressure. The result was forced into the cold palace for a month. After returning home from my mother, I watched it alone in the bedroom....

      Ominous suspicion of collective fear

      Mothmen are taken from American legends, but the mothmen did not really show up in the film from beginning to end. The sightings, telephone messages, and accurate predictions that can prove the existence of Mothmen can be regarded as nuclear fear in a special era. The performance of the group subconscious in the background, of course, this is just my own words. In fact, in 1967, a group of mothman sightings broke out in the town of Le Point in West Virginia. It is said that hundreds of people...

      What makes you really scared

      I think that the creation of the mothman in this movie was not very successful. I vaguely remember that on TV, the trailer stated that this was a real incident. It is said that even the US NSA has related files in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. There were hundreds of sightings in the town, and some were even collective sightings. The propaganda methods used by Taiwanese local filmmakers back then were simply amazing and endless. The trailers really sold too much, but in the...

      mothman where are you

      There are two hopes before watching the movie of mothman. One is to see the beautiful movie of mothman in the movie, and to see how this movie shapes the image of mothman; the other is to see what they want. Make such a boring subject matter into a two-hour movie. For those who also have the first hope, you are doomed to be disappointed. No matter who the producer of this film is, I have to admire him for being a budget-conscious businessman. There is nothing better than without any special...

      The rhythm is fairly tight, but the plot is too convoluted....

    • By Tanner 2022-04-23 07:02:12

      The movie is very long, adapted from reality, there is no reason and no answer, I watched it for nearly two hours at a loss. Maybe the reality of supernatural movies is not as exciting as imagined. If you really encounter it, it should not be a good thing. I am glad that I live very...

    what is this? Another "X-Files"? Many people will ask after watching the plot or trailer, or is it a follow-up work that was filmed because of the popularity of mysterious films like "X-Files"? Director Pellington had this theory when talking about the film: "I don’t want to make it a "monster" movie, nor do I want to make it a science fiction or a movie about supernatural power. I just want to describe The deformation of normal things...
