Five good friends, because of the accidental death of a friend, ushered in a romantic outing that they had previously arranged for a man only. The friend who had left for a few years, but waiting for them, it was a nightmare.
Four good friends are hiking, and suddenly a friend’s ankle has arrived. To be precise, it’s not an ankle. Maybe it’s a dislocated knee? Broken? A lot of people are entangled, didn't they just fail to step on it for a while, how could it be that serious? But everyone saw it from behind, his knees are already swollen in a swollen state! It's not that he is squeamish, it's really serious! Although this is generally not the case, but it is not ruled out that it will be very serious?
At this time, there are several choices, I think it is the best choice, walking in the forest is the best choice, at least if it were me, I would be like this! The first is separation. The two will move to rescue the soldiers, and the two will stay where they are. If it is me, we will not separate! It would be even more terrifying to separate. The person with his injured leg also resolutely said, don't separate! The second is to walk in the forest. The map does not look far away. If it goes well, it will be there at night. Why not? But after walking into the forest, their nightmare began.
I have to say that the atmosphere in the first half of the film is very good. First, I saw a broken car that had been abandoned for a long time after entering the forest, and then the dense trees that looked like long horizontally. I was always worried. At night, the horizontal branches will be connected together, and even the tree will move and surround people. Later, I saw the animals hanging on the trees in the forest, with their internal organs flowing all over the floor, and then the strange symbols on the trees. , Are very weird.
At this time they discovered that they couldn't get out of this forest at all, and it was raining heavily! They hid in a hut, and the house was even more crippled. The headless man with straw and the ubiquitous symbols all showed that the house was not simple at all. What happened to them at night also explained everything. The male lead returned. At the scene where he witnessed his friend's death but did not take action, his body was pierced with a few holes. A friend was so scared to pee his pants, a friend kept yelling like an evil spirit, and a friend was kneeling naked and headless. In front of people. All this will further promote the atmosphere of terror.
They were about to leave the forest together. The man with his injured leg couldn't walk anymore. The male protagonist went to the place where he saw the light to explore the way. He found that the forest was still a forest outside, and he saw a horned monster in the fog. There was suspicion and resentment between them, but fortunately they reconciled afterwards, but that night, a friend disappeared, and another friend saw that a monster took him away, but he did not see what the monster looked like. .
The male protagonist saw his friend die in front of him at first, but he did not take action. He has been living in self-blame all these years. Indeed, the gangster only had knives and no guns. The friend was already trying his best to delay the time and would not give the ring. He was simply giving the male lead a secret signal to get him out quickly, but he didn't go out. If he went out, his friend might not die. This time, he heard his friends calling for help, even if he knew that there might be a monster, he was determined to catch up, but they got lost again, and even the tent and other supplies were not found.
After losing two friends one after another and finding their bodies hanging on a tree, they came to a small house and woke up to find that they were caught. In fact, starting from here, indeed, all the previously created atmosphere is destroyed. What kind of cultists, what Loki's son Cthulhu, etc., is not bad, it can only be said too early, and there is too much content, it feels like a forced press, and the connection with the front is very unnatural.
I think it can actually be arranged like this. When the first friend in front was arrested, the friend was calling for help, and others were going to chase. The male lead stopped them from going, but the next day I saw the friend’s body hanging on the tree. ; When the second friend died, the male protagonist and the remaining friends hid in the bushes, and saw the evil god’s part of the friend piercing the tree, the friend wanted to rush out to save the man, the male protagonist covered his mouth so that he would not make a sound , As a result, the second friend also died. When there was only one friend left, the two fell apart and separated. This time he saw the phantoms of three friends who he hadn't rescued. The other friend was also caught by the evil god and stuck in a tree. , The Cthulhu in the eyes of the friend is his wife. Don’t show the full picture of the Cthulhu. At this time, the male protagonist saw it. He was hiding in the bushes. When he was about to stop shooting again, he saw the other three friends staring at him, so he ran. Go out to divert the Cthulhu’s attention and save the last friend. The male protagonist takes the last friend and walks with him. But the friend doesn’t want to drag him and lets him go alone. At this moment, the Cthulhu arrives, and the friend drags the Cthulhu away, and the male host bears the pain. I ran forward, ran out of the forest, and finally looked at the forest. The four friends all smiled and looked at him. At this time, the whole picture of the evil god was revealed, and the outline of the evil god was very vague in the mist. In fact, the male protagonist doesn't have those holes in his body, and there are no signs. There are no cultists, no evil gods, and some are just monsters. And there will be more interpretations in that way. Perhaps the monster is the inferiority in his heart that witnessed the death of his friend without taking action, and the forest may be the devil trapped inside. The death of these three friends may be just his own division. There is no such thing as death for this excursion. I think this might be better, and the weird atmosphere in the front can also continue to the end of the film. After all, the fear of the unknown in the mist is even more frightening.
But now, a bunch of cultists suddenly appeared, smashed with a Loki’s son. Except for the symbols in front and the headless man, the other connections were not big. In the end, the male protagonist’s friends all died. He is left, how can he explain to his friends' wives one by one? It is estimated that he will not be able to clean it up in his life. When the first friend died, everyone had already criticized him, and he would not complain about his wife. As a result, several friends have died now...
Of course, this is actually fine now, but it's not as powerful as the previous one, and the story still makes sense. Overall it's not bad, especially the weird atmosphere in the first half, and the plot behind it is a little bit bloody.
