Horror movies are no longer scary

Horror movies have degenerated into thrillers, and evil spirits have been possessed from the beginning of the movie, completely losing the gradual and pressing fear that horror elements should have. Not as good as "The Conjuring Universe"'s last warm-up movie, the antipasto "Annabelle 3". The director is "The Curse of the Crying Woman" Michael Chavez, and last time he complained that the post-95s director lacked new ideas in "The Crying Woman", which is the standard path of horror films: confined space! Turn the lights on and off! Open and close! Demon Wind! Flash! scream! Slow motion advance! Startled and nervous! Burst in silence! As a result, the above routines were omitted this time, and the quality dropped even more seriously. It was simply indifferent to the extreme. Even a timid person like me is not frightened, can this still be considered a horror movie? Horror movies must be rated low if they are not scary. However, after all, there is a very orthodox soul series based on the Warrens and his wife, so please give me 5 points for the feelings! The features of "The Soul" are all adapted from real events, which largely satisfies the audience's desire to spy on supernatural events. The film is also based on a homicide that took place in 1981, which was the first court case in American history where a defendant claimed to have denied responsibility for the crime because he was possessed by a demon. . . In short, the exorcism in the plot is solved by force, rather than by real fighting methods like "Master Key", and the visual experience is really poor. Therefore, according to the general level of today's horror films, we can only go to the horror room to find the feeling in the future.

    I almost fell asleep, photography and transitions are getting better and better technically, but the content is really nothing new. By the way, this movie is not scary at all.

    If Wen Jiaban is compared to Deyun Club, Wen Ge himself is Lao Guo, good friend Ray Warner can be regarded as Li Jing, and of course Sandberg will not let Yue Yunpeng. As for the director of this film, Michael Chavez, he was deeply appreciated at a young age, and his resources were as good as Lao Wen's own son, so he was probably a unicorn.
