An oriental magic movie with a strong religious overtone.
After watching the whole movie, the depressing atmosphere has always existed, and there are countless death scenes. I can't say the advantages of the movie.
There are a lot of things that are poorly understood in the plot.
1. The Japanese have been determined to be demons. There is a detail in the movie. The Japanese took pictures of the dead Park Chunpei in the truck, and then did it. Later, the practice was interrupted. When the Japanese went to see it, the face was obviously A little anxious and a little disappointed. Does that mean the Japanese are doing this to prevent them from becoming zombies? Also, when the zombies died later, their bodies were similar to the zombies in the hospital, but they were slightly different. The zombies in the hospital did not eat people (when they were in the hospital), so can it be understood that the Japanese made it? Death (of course the idea is premature).
I think there is a little more evidence for this view: when he met the Japanese for the first time, he said: Anyway, you won't believe what I say.
2. As a branch line of the movie, why did the guy in the church go to the devil alone, why did he say that to the Japanese, why did he not believe in the Japanese from the bottom of his heart, but he believed in him. (It can be understood as a line specially added to explain the Japanese, or it can be a metaphor for religious conflict)
3. At the end of the film, it can be completely determined that Huang Zhengmin and the Japanese are the same group, then all previous objective ideas must be overturned Now, the approach to Hyojin is more like accelerating erosion rather than exorcising demons, but the direction the movie points to is exorcising ghosts, especially the Japanese resurrection from the dead. This is very embarrassing. It can be understood that the director did it deliberately, just to save the suspense to the end. (It can also be understood that the film uses a lot of deceptive shots)
There are many details about the relationship between the Japanese and Huang Zhengmin,
4. Regarding the logical issue, Guo Duyuan in the film raised a very sharp question, and Wuming said that it was to punish doubts When someone else's father treated his daughter like that, Guo Duyuan explained that it was his daughter who got sick first, so he was suspicious. There is an obvious logical problem at this point. Although Luo Hongzhen also mentioned this question in a later interview, his answer was basically no. So this is a logical question.
5. On the issue of crows, there are many symbolic crows in the movie. At first it was the Japanese home, then the tank, and finally the home of Huang Zhengmin. How to understand the crow, whose. For crows, it is very quiet to eat meat in Japanese homes. In Guo Duyuan's house, it is a medium of ghost arts. As I understood before, the Japanese and Huang Zhengmin are in the same group, so when the crow appears in Huang Zhengmin's house, Huang Zhengmin will be so frightened. The crow is a very important symbol, and I don't understand it.
6. Why did the anonymous female ghost let Huang Zhengmin go? Was it the female ghost or the snapdragon on the door that made Huang Zhengmin bleed? If the female ghost can kill the demon and know that Huang Zhengmin is the same group, why let Huang Zhengmin go. It feels like it's all about preparing for Kwok Do-won's lingering doubts at the end of the movie. What is the function of the snapdragon grass? Xiaozhen has obviously been possessed, but he can enter the house. If the possessed person is not Japanese, then why does the female ghost go to see Xiaozhen. He meets Xiaozhen before he commits the murder, but sets a trap to capture the evil spirit. I'm already messed up.
7. Regarding the three crowings, whether Guo Duyuan enters or not, his family must have died. I originally understood that the three crowings represented the three members of his family.
I think this kind of movie is a bit messy, ghosts and zombies exist at the same time.
I feel sorry for the little actor, is such a movie really good for her. Although the filming came out, the little actors acted very well.
The digging hole is a bit big, and we can only wait for the director's cut in the later stage to determine these details. I was looking forward to this movie very much, but I was a little disappointed after watching it, and I gave it a seven. Emotions are a plus.
