I didn't read the trailer or review before watching the movie, so I don't know the plot. I was excited after watching it, because the movie actually had a lot of ambush, echoing before and after, I think this is a more exciting place, giving you a feeling of the original.
The first is the first scene. Rose first said that the little girl Violet was special, and then said that the flower was special, and then ate the flower, saying that the special taste good. This is a hint that she wants to eat girls. Then in the blink of an eye, her group members rushed up. The screen is pulled up into the sky, you can't see what's going on, but you know they're going to eat the girl. But at this time, they just thought they were eating her flesh and blood.
Then the second act felt very classic, so I immediately recognized it as a clip from The Shining. The little boy rode his bicycle through the long hotel corridor. Then passing by room 237, the door opened and the child woke up. In the end, the boy locks them in the box of his own consciousness, which echoes the girl's calm closing of the toilet door at the end of the film. In fact, in this position, I suspect that these ghosts do not have self-awareness, because girls are stronger than Danny, since Danny can lock them into consciousness, girls can also, so they should be afraid, but they are not. Towards the end of the film, the black woman said to Danny, who was being pushed up, that he was not Danny, he was a hotel, so these souls should actually have no thoughts, but the hotel had self-consciousness, and then it was controlled by the hotel's consciousness, and then in After the hotel's demise, he unconsciously followed the fragrant aura to find the black woman.
Then the third segment is the meeting between the little boy Danny and the dead black security guard in The Shining. The director makes you think the child is talking to someone, but disappears when the mother comes and knows he is a ghost. This is also the end, when you see the black girl talking to Danny, you think he's not dead, but when mom comes, he disappears and you know he's dead. In addition, in this meeting, the black uncle told Danny that the reason why the ghosts in the hotel haunted him is because everyone has more or less shining, but Danny's shining is the purest, so those ghosts are extremely to him. eager. In the conversation between Danny and his father, it was also mentioned that his mother died when he was 21 years old. When he died, there was so much white air. He couldn't even see his mother's eyes. It can be known that his mother also had a lot of shining. At this time, it was clear that it was no wonder that the ghosts in the hotel were chasing their mother and son.
As for some people who say, since black girls are so awesome, why do they have to run away at the end. I think that's because her brilliance is on a conscious level, not a physical level of strength. So that's not to say the movie sucks. At that time, the male protagonist was already a middle-aged uncle, and the little loli was only a minor, but when Rose was sucking the remaining spiritual energy she had saved, she showed that her skin became younger, suggesting that these auras made her The body is in a younger state. In comparison, it is not surprising that Rose is stronger than the male lead, and finally chopped the male lead with an axe. At the beginning of the movie, this group has been catching children. You think they don't eat adults, but then you are shocked. One second, they are still sad for the loss of their companions, but the next second they can't hold back. He sucked the white air that his companions turned into into his body. And at this time, because Rose hurt the male protagonist, he found that the male protagonist's shing is also delicious, taste like Whiskey. At the beginning she said that Violet taste like follower. When Danny first interviewed the black uncle, there was a missing person notice in the nearby lamppost looking for Violet. So in fact, Danny at that time was at risk of being caught, but he kept a low profile and was not discovered, and when he met a black girl later, he also warned the other party not to cause trouble and keep a low profile. This makes you terrified. In fact, they are eaten by both adults and children, but because adults are strong and polluted, they only know children. In many clips of black girls fighting against Rose, they are actually in their consciousness. In a duel in the hotel, they also pulled Rose into their consciousness and fought. But at this time, because Rose was taking too much spiritual energy, the other two couldn't beat her. To sum it up, Reiki actually makes you want to be young, relatively at the age when you started taking Reiki, and at the same time make you more conscious, rather than defeating each other with bodies or objects in the real world.
In addition, the film actually revolves around the topic of death several times. When Danny first saw the dying old man in the hospital, the old man called him doctor, and he said he was not. The old man said that the cat came in because he knew he was going to die, and said he was afraid of death. Danny comforted the old man, death was like Sleep, so the old man called him Doctor Sleep. And in Rose's group, when the oldest boy group member was going to die, he kept talking, I was scared, I was scared, and Rose kept comforting him, the world opposite had flowers, ocean, blue sky. . . I was actually quite sad to see this scene, everything was due to their instinctive fear of death. And Annie, a new member of the group, saw and questioned Rose why he did this. Rose said that he didn't guarantee mortal at the beginning, just said live long.
But I doubt that they actually have a chance to not die, as long as they keep sucking the aura. But Rose didn't share her stock with the dead tall man.
There are also a few points that the people who were sucked did not reappear. I can guess that shining exists as a material after death, but it will also be exhausted, so the soul will also disappear, not like the Chinese Idea, to reincarnate. And the person who is sucked is equivalent to, as soon as they die, the shining is used up, so they will never be seen again.
Plus, what scares you is that even if you become one of them, you run the risk of being eaten. Because when the villain No. 2 knew that the black woman existed, he asked Rose, turn or food. Rose said food. That is, in fact, your team members and food are no different. The explanation given by Rose is that she does not accept people who are stronger than herself. I can understand that she is not willing to risk being absorbed by the other party. And will want to film, joined Annie. In fact, she may have been eaten. Because she was young at the time, only 15, and the black woman was 14. Meet the conditions for the gang to have children. But it was only because Annie could hypnotize her that Rose accepted her.
However, after becoming members of the group, they actually connected, tight together. So when the male protagonist annihilates them, Rose is very painful.
At the same time, a hole in front of it is also filled. When Annie joined the group earlier, it was very painful. When I woke up again, I asked Rose, didn't it hurt? I felt like I was going to die. Rose said, you are. I was quite confused at the time, isn't it okay? Later, when I saw Billy shoot Annie, Annie's epidermis peeled off layer by layer, and finally dissipated, not turning into smoke like everyone else. This may be due to her young age, or that her wounds are not immediately fatal like other teammates. But when I saw her being shot, my thought was that she should be left with a corpse and not turned into smoke. Because she is only 15 years old, if she does not join the group, she will not die, and the others, but almost 40 years have passed since the beginning of the film, it is likely that they are hundreds of years old, if they do not join the group, now People who have died of old age for many years turn into smoke. As a result, I saw that she also turned into smoke. Thinking about it now, it's probably because Annie is actually dead, but she exists as a soul body, and as long as she keeps inhaling aura, it won't dissipate. Like a ghost in a hotel, there is a thirst for aura. And compared to the ghosts in the hotel, because their spiritual bodies live on their own corpses, they are still conscious.
In addition, what I think is funny is that because the ghosts in the hotel are looking for the male protagonist one by one, the male protagonist can put them in the cage of consciousness. Then when the male protagonist saw his father again, the father said that there were many people in the past, but now I don't know why everyone is gone????. This is very joyful. Not all were locked up by your son, they must be gone.
Moreover, his father has always refused to admit that he is the father of the male protagonist, saying that he recognized the wrong person. At the same time, it is said that alcohol is medicine, which makes you forget the pain. Forehead. I'm thinking, maybe that's one of the themes of the movie, that's escape, which was escaping death, and his father was talking about escapism and suffering.
But son Danny rejects his father's whisky, and at the same time shows his choice and has to face reality. This also reflects a change in his mentality since he was a child to the present.
At the end of the film, it is shown that Danny died in a sea of fire with his mother as a child. The feeling is actually Danny's mentality. He feels that everything goes back to the beginning and ends at the beginning.
There are also a few funny clips. When I first saw a black girl looking for Danny for the first time, I told my friends that if Billy saw him like this, would he be mistaken for a pedophile? But Billy didn't say anything, but Danny complained about the other party as soon as he sat down. How did you come to the door? You, a 14-year-old girl, and I, a grown man in his 40s, were together, what would others think. Then the black girl's father saw Danny looking for the black girl and said, what have you done to my daughter, she is only 14 years old! ! ! ! Then it's a punch. I think this is also a kind of mapping. ???
Overall, it's not a terrifying horror movie, but it's a good one. It is more of a fantasy color, similar to the feeling of a hero versus a witch. However, when I was out of the theater, there was also a girl in a couple who said it was scarier than Joker. So it's a matter of opinion, I think it's musical horror?
