A dilapidated house has ushered in a new owner. The retro atmosphere, the sudden appearance of glass balls, and the abnormal behaviors of animals all show the faintly weird atmosphere of the house from the side.
The black holes that can be seen everywhere on the walls of the houses are conspicuous and weird. In the holes, Cole found some old newspapers and women's clothing with the 1985 production date. Here, it indicates the unknown history of the house and the "homeowner".
At dinner time, the slightly strange questions and warning words of the bar owner were actually not ridicule but a warning to Cole for safety reasons. Obviously for a bar owner who has read countless people, Cole from a big city will obviously go wrong in front of the house.
Soon the barkeeper’s words were fulfilled. When fixing the kitchen drain, the hint of the blonde woman Sasha's eyes and the temptation revealed in the words were obviously the first test of Cole, and the exchange of eyes between the two It has been shown that Cole is on the verge of falling, and there will be a nightmare in front of him.
Aventures related to the house, the thick liquid from the shower, the continuous bubbles in the wall coating, the mirrors everywhere and the sudden appearance of the mirrors are slowly showing their fangs to Cole, but Cole was not aware of it.
When the narcissistic and selfish Cole came again, he ignored Cooper's warning outside the door and took the candy from the devil and ate it. And the laughter of the shadow in the mirror seemed to laugh at Cole, and that's nothing more than that of a respectable gentleman.
So far, the elements that render the atmosphere of horror have been laid out through objects, character dialogue, and the state of the protagonist.
Cole, who was still intoxicated by his own good charm, was awakened by a loud noise, but the falling ceiling of the bedroom showed a different attic scene. It was renovated into the fence of the stand, and the bedroom directly opposite the stand was unacceptable to the conservative Cole’s wife, so the repair was put on the agenda.
But Cole, who was busy repairing the ceiling, refused Sasha's request to visit again. Obviously he understood the relationship between family and the passion of the night, but it was too late. Cole, who had experienced the nightmare that night, left the symbol of the whole house on his chest-a glass ball. And the warning of such a ball speaks for itself.
In order to repair the ceiling, Cole invited the help of his good friend Mellow, and Sasha, who was constantly visiting, felt like an unreasonable little girl entangled unreasonably, but Cole, who threatened Sasha by words, was beaten by McCall. Luo ran into him, and the two quarreled. The frustrated Cole slammed out the door, while the remaining Mai Luo was tricked into the basement by Sasha to brutally kill and hide his body in the wall.
Obviously, Cole didn’t connect Sasha’s weirdness of entangled in the house, he just used his past experience to judge that this is just another girl who wants to destroy his family, and then the revenge came this time is very vicious and quiet. Silent.
After killing Milo, he tricked the dog Cooper into the underground vault to kill and threw the body into the dryer. Such a move is no longer as simple as leaving a glass bead before, it is already about life and death.
In order not to expose his derailment, Cole chose to kill him. After he used a false apology to win Sasha’s trust, he killed Sasha in the kitchen, and when he was preparing to hide the body in the basement, his wife called in. , And returned to the basement after hung up the phone violently, the body is no longer visible.
If the previous conflict was only a verbal temptation and attack, then it has become a bloody revenge, and Cole was obviously not prepared to face conflicts between non-humans. The final result is obviously that Cole was tortured and killed. After hiding the body in the compartment of the bedroom.
So far, all the bloody and terrifying plots in the film have been told, and then we have to explain the truth behind these things.
However, Liz, who arrived early, discovered the strangeness of her husband Cole, so when inspecting the house, he discovered the secret hidden in the house—the female corpse that could not be found.
But Liz, who had escaped the pursuit of Sasha in a thrilling manner, escaped from the house and revealed the secret of the house through the priest Mueller-this is a tool for testing humanity. In front of the house, everyone has to make a choice, and the character is weak. After making the wrong choice, people will accept a tragic ending.
After the brave Liz put an end to the evil spirits in the house, he buried the corpse hidden in the wall.
Six months later, Cole's face in the vent in the ceiling and the smile to his daughter indicate that once you make the wrong choice, you will be trapped for a lifetime.

On the whole, this is a simple horror film that cannot be simpler. The plot of the whole film progressed step by step, without any turning point, so it did not cause any disturbance in my heart.
If you find out from the dialogues of the characters in the film, the topic discussed in the film is actually very simple: the choice of human nature. And the target is very old-fashioned, how to deal with the relationship between temporary joy and family happiness? Although the hero has already given the answer, the result does not seem to meet the director's requirements.
And such an old-fashioned topic is involved in an unremarkable story. It seems that the whole movie seems to be reasonable for the sake of reason, and the plot and the ending are not obvious, and the imposing principle is doubled. Feeling far-fetched.
In order to highlight the theme of life and death, decorations with cryptic metaphors continue to appear in the houses, and the design of props for the scenes in conjunction with them is the only highlight of the whole film. And the liquid that gushed out of the wall and the evil spirit crawling out of the hole looked like a reborn baby. But this freak was strangled in the cradle by Liz, and it also foreshadows that a new life will be born here instead of a twisted soul.
But the fact is that the imprisoned person will never have the sun.

Watching the entire movie, the only bright spot is the concrete expression of ideology.
In addition, the film has nothing to do with its perception, plot, character acting, and inspiration.
