Not a battlefield, but a cemetery

At first I thought it was a pure war film, and then I found out that I was wrong.
This should be regarded as the intersection of war and horror films. Since the beginning of war, it has always been narrative with horror films. The film has to express more than just war. Now, I can remember a theme at the end, because I really help people can get freedom or life.
The main place of the story is a cemetery, not just a trench. The corpses all over the floor, complete and incomplete It is completely presented before your eyes, and you don’t want to look at it, because it’s always there. When you see it, everyone will have an idea—anti-war. It’s true, and I thought it was an anti-war theme at first.
However, with the continuous occurrence of supernatural events, we began to be enveloped by a breath of terror. The killing and mutual suspicion between the comrades in arms made me think that this was a psychological problem caused by the war. Later, I discovered that these events were not explainable by science at all, so a completely supernatural horror film was presented. Until the end of the film, all the supernatural events did not give us an explanation, but it felt that it was the layout of the German captive. Therefore, the story is somewhat unacceptable, and the final theme expression is naturally acceptable to the audience. We all want Sha to survive, and this is the conclusion of everyone after thinking about human nature, because he is really helping others.
However, in general, the visual impact of the movie is very strong, but the expression of the theme somewhat disappointed me. Although there are acceptable themes, it seems that such a theme is a bit too much to express with such themes and scenes.

    I don’t remember when I saw introductions such as battlefield illusions and supervising howls, "science" destroying horror movies

    Because I listened to the horror military audio novel "One More", I was looking for a military horror film with a similar theme, so I watched this film. To be honest, it's not very interesting. class concept. But this film is not too bad after all. It is said that there is also a small game of "1916 Unknown War" with the same theme as this film. Put this on record.
