It's really a ghost movie!

What the hell was that shot. It is true that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. First of all, the prerequisites of real ghosts and fake ghosts (people pretending to be ghosts) must be consistent. But at the end of this movie, it is still a doll channeling or a human being revenge, mixed and not explained clearly. If it's Mary Shaw's revenge, then it's a real ghost in the end. Then you've been doing it for decades to get your revenge. Isn't the efficiency too low? And he has to bring the male protagonist back to the town, and then he will kill him after he has done everything. Why should everyone pay attention to the right time and place? I didn't see you being so principled when you killed other supporting roles? Besides, at the beginning, I killed a child because of a truthful statement. Is this Xiao or a human? Isn’t this logic scary? So it's not ghosts that are scary, it's scary people who become ghosts. What makes this place more disgusting is the director's point of view. Is he trying to scare children not to talk casually? How malicious it is to children. As a media, such a design makes people feel full of nausea.

Besides, can horror movies really only rely on the dark background and all kinds of horror music to forcibly set off? What scares me the most in the whole film is the part about the girlfriend, the sudden fading voice, the slowing pendulum, and finally the sound of the puppets turning their eyes and limbs in the silence. And when the male protagonist hides the cat with Billy in the car, isn't he dizzy? I didn't have to look to guess it ended up by the car window. And I have to go at night to bury things. Jerry's part is also, watching him enter the basement, you can guess that the door will be locked from the outside. It can only be said that this kind of watching is courting death, there is no way for the director to arrange it. But can we arrange it with some brains, or consider that our audience has brains when arranging.

It is said that there are two versions of the ending. It's amazing. The ghost movie has a double ending. I don't even know what to judge. Many people praise the ending of the male protagonist's father, which is very charming. What can I say, although I guessed it, I also think it is one of the few bright spots. Another highlight is the color processing of the film, blood, the male protagonist's car, and lighting. The highlight of red and the contrast of gray and black background enhance the horror atmosphere. Does it really feel much better than watching the dark scene all the time? I don't know why the director thinks that the darkness is scary, I can't see it clearly, you tell me what's scary? It's scary to see clearly, okay?
