I really didn't dare to watch it, but after watching the "Annabelle" and "The Conjuring" series before, I couldn't help it and wanted to watch it very much. So I picked a big noon, lowered the sound of the film, and watched it hard.
Not particularly scary, but within the acceptable range. After reading it, I have two thoughts. First, if I use 502 glue to cover my mouth, will I be able to fight Mary Xiao for 300 rounds? Second, don't hurt people's self-esteem and make them embarrassed in public. If the unlucky child had just shut up and watched the show, and hadn't exposed the ventriloquism of the Mary Xiao puppet's performance, wouldn't there have been so many tragedies in the back... Hahaha.
Although the details of the plot are quite confusing, as far as this story is concerned, it is still very organized. The summary is as follows: Mary Xiao, who is obsessed with puppet performance art, knows ventriloquism and is a perfectionist, always trying to make perfect puppets. Coincidentally, in a performance, a boy in the Anson family said that "it's not a real child talking, it's just a puppet show, and you can see Mary Shaw's mouth moving". So, a few weeks later, Mary Shaw took the boy and made him into a doll. Angry Anson family members and the townspeople guessed that Mary Shaw had killed the boy, so they cut off Mary Shaw's tongue and killed him tragically. Mary Xiao was deeply resentful and haunted. She possessed the dolls she made during her lifetime and launched a bloody revenge—killing every Anson family member and participant. This is done by intimidating them with evil spirits, pulling out their tongues as they open their mouths and scream (and Mary Shaw also has the voice of the slain). The revenge has come to the courageous male protagonist, which is the content of the beginning of the movie.
Talk about what I don't understand. First, why did old Henry never die, and why did he die inexplicably. His wife held a crow specimen and kept talking like she was insane, expressing something. Second, the order of murder. It is true that the order of the male protagonist's father, the male protagonist, and the male protagonist's children does not necessarily have to be followed, but since Mary Xiao wants to kill all the members of the Anson family without leaving a single one, it is common sense to kill the male protagonist's father, and then kill the male protagonist's father. Wouldn't it be over if the male protagonist and the male protagonist's wife (the wife is pregnant and the fetus is the last member of the Anson family) kills the protagonist? Is it a big expense to toss the male protagonist and lure him back to the town to investigate the truth, etc. Zhou Zhang, a little far-fetched. Third, the key character, the male protagonist's stepmother, ella, what kind of species is this woman with the same hook. The ending of the film shows that she is obviously Mary Xiao's woman, and after marrying the male protagonist's father, she kills her, and finally picks up the protagonist's shining aura. But it seems that Mary Xiao can only be attached to the dolls she made during her lifetime, why did ella also have Mary Xiao's face in the end and ripped off the male protagonist's tongue? It seems that the only explanation is that ella is also a doll of Mary Xiao, but in this case, the time line is not right. It is impossible for Mary Xiao to make ella before her death and manipulate her to marry the father of the male protagonist... This is very illogical.
On second thought, maybe it was because I was afraid and didn't dare to look carefully, hahaha. Wen Ziren is capable. I think he is very good at making horror movies. Bringing the number of horror movies into the drama, such as "Swamp Monster", is a bit nondescript. Above, from a shivering audience.
