"New Daughter": Looking for a monster that breeds a body

It was the first time I watched a horror movie played by Kevin Costner in my impression. It's hard to say what the film is good about, but Kevin feels comfortable in acting.

If you want to say that people really can't live alone, there is always some evil in the unmanned, detached house. Thinking about the feeling of being surrounded by woods, you get goose bumps. It was OK during the day. At night, it was dark all around, and you couldn't see what was happening outside, but you could clearly see the room outside. As soon as it gets dark, the whole house is completely exposed. Living in it, don’t you always feel like being watched ==!

Not only will it be awkward to live on your own, you don't even have a neighbor, you can't go where you usually hang out, and children don't have a partner to play together. When you buy something at home, you have to drive a long way to the town to buy it. If you get sick or have an accident, there are no people calling for help. It's too lonely!

This film is another living example. The house is already lonely, but there is an earthen grave next to it. I think of an old movie "Forbidden to Enter the Cemetery", which is about the tombs of Indians next to the house, which is contemplative and quite strange. However, there is a flaw in this film, that is, it is not clear about the earthen tomb. It is an ancient thing, but it combines gods. When these things appear, they are simply monsters. The atmosphere created before is still okay, but it appears to be incapable of the most critical horror factor. In the end, the monster’s nest also seemed unconvincing, and it was a bit like an alien again. Using the girl's body to breed the new generation is actually a point worth playing.

Of course, the final scene of the ending was handled pretty well, and all that accumulated was despair. Originally, faced with such a monster, there will be ghosts only when they win.
