After watching this film, I feel that it is about "karma" and "knowing mistakes can be corrected". Because I love to watch suspense films, I thought that this film would be like "House of All Sides", where the murderer was revealed at the end, or like "April Fools' Day", where several people worked together to make fun of others. When the old lady suddenly "lived", she realized that there is indeed a supernatural phenomenon in this film. A group of guilty people were trapped in the elevator and died one by one. Only those who had guilt and forgiveness survived. The old lady was the "judge" who came to take away the sinful soul. From another point of view, she did not Not a "devil," she was compassionate and eventually let the hit-and-run away. As long as those who sincerely repent will be forgiven, and those who do not repent will eventually be punished.

Ramirez: [voiceover] When I was a child, my mother would tell me a story about how the Devil roams the Earth. Sometimes, she said, he would take human form so he could punish the damned on Earth before claiming their souls. The ones he chose would be gathered together and tortured as he hid amongst them, pretending to be one of them. I always believed my mother was telling me an old wives' tale.
