With the withdrawal of the older generation of horror film creative masters such as Nobuo Nakagawa, horror and thrillers have fallen into a downturn, and movie fans have long been unable to find the hormone to stimulate the soul. Recently, a pseudo-theme of "Ghost Shadows and Live Records" has won the hearts of fans from a real perspective. It was only a flash in the pan, and it is difficult to see how long this road of saving money will be in the future. Some people say that the film market is no longer for children to play the house. Just relying on the special effects and computer technology that even "coax" and "make trouble", we want to tie our appetite, not to mention the film critics, and the threshold of the audience is not allowed. You cross easily. Therefore, the taste of the plot becomes the real reason for watching the movie.

"Falling Into Hell" is still somewhat of an old-fashioned thriller, with superficial themes of curses, psychological torture, and revenge. However, it is still difficult for them to break through, so let's see how "Falling into Hell" tossed the old script. In general, for the constant pursuit of this type of subject matter, I still quite like the style of this one, and the seasoning is appropriate. It does not make people entangled in the boringness of the plot, nor does it make people feel long and tired of black theory.

It has been said that the German and physical labor of the film is basically up to standard, but intellectually it is a little unsatisfactory. After all, there is no breakthrough in the film's creativity. No matter how clever the heroine Brown is, in the end, she can't escape sloppy and let herself fall into hell. And what really made him unlucky to be cursed was not entirely a matter of selfishness, but also related to his failure to learn geography well, not understanding Cambodian customs, and inexplicably humiliating the old lady, which was also considered bad luck. However, the German aspect is still passable. As the bank's microfinance officer, Brown resolutely rejected the old lady's request and repossessed her house in order to pursue career development. As far as his film thinking is concerned, he still warns people not to take evil for small things. Needless to say about physical fatigue, the old lady will torture our beautiful heroine if she has nothing to do with it. However, sometimes we do underestimate the physical fitness of the girl. Apart from the heroine's fighting ability, the old lady's tenacious vitality is also It's still admirable. It's good to be strong when you are old, so it seems that physical labor is not only passable, but also excellent. The points are also given, and from time to time an old lady comes out to season it. This dose of ingredients still keeps the movie from being boring.

The film unfolds the development of the story through the legend of the curse of Cambodia, laying the foundation for the logic of the plot, and through Brown's boyfriend, the atheist Dalton, adds a conflicting and dramatic impact to the film, making the film position the audience from the beginning, you are an atheist If you are the former, then your viewing angle tends to be psychological films, all the curse is just Brown's psychological troubles, the ability to bear is too poor, but if the latter, then the whole film is in your opinion A real gun for real. But the final development of the story compromised theism, and Brown eventually found a prophet to lift her curse.

After a series of cracking methods, we found that the old lady's mana was extremely high. In the end, even the master of exorcism only defeated the hell demon, but did not completely eliminate it, but fortunately, there is a story in the story. It is also a wish. Before dying, it is finally worthy of the child who died many years ago. However, this arrangement still makes the poor child at the beginning convicted for stealing and getting cursed, but it is also for future stories. Under the sacrifice, there will be no discussion.

Brown was really unlucky. When she found out in her conscience that she wanted to beg the old lady to revoke the curse, the old lady had run out of suns and went to hell earlier than her. In order to survive, Brown had to put aside the good side and do evil for his own existence. , In fact, the duality of Brown's character has long been explained in the plot. He is very beautiful and has a good figure, but in fact, his original title was Pig Queen. He lives in a big city and has a fashionable femininity, but in fact She is a villager who loves animals, but in order to sacrifice to the devil, she can only use the blood of animals to satisfy her selfish desires for survival. All the stories tell that people cannot be themselves. The passing grade in morality is reflected. In the end, Brown still did not frame his competitors in the workplace and made up for his lack of morality.

But bad luck is bad luck. Originally, the cursed button could be put on the body of the dead old lady, and the grave was dug with all the hard work and effort. When everything was back to normal in Brown's mind, and when he was proud of his career and love, the door to hell had opened for him. The only thing that can be done is to change into new clothes as an underground dowry.

It can still be seen from the movie that Brown is actually not that hateful. He has a kind side just to hide a little flaw. In reality, the movie is also using this extreme method to warn people even if we live in a noble space , there is also the risk of falling into hell. There are inconspicuous evils all around us, but we just ignore them. Few people will do redemption for their own small evils. You consider making up for some of your own small selfish desires. Have you been? Why can't we always avoid hiding some truth?
