Recently, a new horror movie has been released. The look and feel is very good. Whether it is the plot, the soundtrack or even the special effects, it is very pleasantly surprised. Even the texture of the photographic picture is very similar to the Swedish scenery tourism promotion film. Not much to say, first put a few The landscape picture will wash your eyes for everyone.

It's really beautiful. After reading it, I really want to travel, ah, it's a bit off topic. Today I'm going to talk about this new work "Hessian Spirit".

Then let’s go back to the topic and talk about the movie. Those who haven’t watched it are best to get the resources and then watch the tweets. The resources are still the old rules.


In fact, the story is quite simple. It is about the horror story of four good friends who planned to take a hiking trip to commemorate the accidental death of friend Robert in the robbery.

I have to say that the first half of the atmosphere created really fried chicken sticks, full of evil and mysterious, fear often comes from the unknown, often from the inner guilt, because of this, the male protagonist Luke needs to defeat the demons, defeat the fear, and get out. The shadow of guilt, because of the death of his good friend Robert, Luke has always been guilty of his heart. After all, he has a certain relationship with him. Robert's death is the beginning of all stories and the contradiction between the four friends.

The Cthulhu in the film has a special power. It seems to be able to perceive the weakest and most guilty part of everyone's heart and use it to defeat each other. Therefore, the ancient Cthulhu is haunting the dense forest, and the scene of the evil spirit is vaguely presented in turn.

Entering the dense forest, the story will officially begin. Discarded cars, horses hung on trees and cut open their stomachs, mysterious symbols, and grotesque calls all suggest that the forest doesn't seem to be that simple.

The four fools in the forest will face a terrible nightmare.

Official complaints are the deadliest

To say that the most brilliant part of the film is the plot of the night in the cabin to shelter from the rain, which is particularly weird. Both the atmosphere and the soundtrack are quite good.

By magnifying everyone’s inner fear, the Cthulhu defeated four people one after another in this cold forest. Only the male lead was different from the others because he was more vulnerable, more guilty, easier to defeat, and more likely to make him succumb. Therefore, when the male lead woke up, he found several bleeding wounds on his body, suggesting that the evil god chose him to succumb to himself.

After escaping the cabin, terrible things happened one after another. First, Hatch was hung on a tree by caesarean section.

Later, Phil was captured by Cthulhu

In the end, Luke and Daum escaped to a cabin, and Daum was also used as a sacrifice.

When the film arrives here, we can really see the true face of the ancient evil god Loki's bastard, who looks like an elephant, a sheep and a deer, and two cute little hands.

In the end, the male protagonist defeated the evil god and escaped. In fact, it should be regarded as the male protagonist defeated his own heart and truly got liberated.

So far the film is over, the evil god is still there, and the male protagonist can survive, but we don’t know whether it’s really redeemed. The film actually wants to use supernatural metaphors to show that the male protagonist is constantly walking out of the guilt of witnessing the death of his friend, and finally defeating the demon. The journey of self-redemption.
