Just finished watching under the shadows
Aside from religion and politics, the film isn't really that bright
Even the scene of a hand smashing the glass, which was highly praised by many film critics, actually appeared long ago when the zombies came out of the cage, and this breaking point has been completely guessed. Also, the toaster scene is really worn out. A lot of people compare this movie to The Conjuring I'm sorry I respect both directors but I'll be honest the Conjuring is way better than it
But even with politics and religion the movie doesn't qualify as a thriller. Metaphors are a bit ingenious, cloaks, puppets, and books.
The wind represents the inner fear, the cloak represents the bondage, the puppet and the book represent the beloved
The close-up of the wind turning the book and the head of the puppet at the end of the film should refer to the meaning of "can't escape from the shadows" because the front of the film said "if you can't take back what you love, the djinn will always haunt you, you can't escape from the shadows". Hide" instead of "if you want to get out of the shadows, you have to give up" as many people explain
And I just know that if disaster strikes, I tell my mom that my puppet didn't bring me back to save her, and my mom would definitely slap me, slap me, dizzy me, carry me, and go. The illogical behavior really makes this movie The price drop is also ridiculous
It's as unpleasant as the stupid protagonist in the slaughter movie has escaped, but the Virgin is possessed to go back to save his companions and then destroy them.
However, there are also some small details in this movie that are worth admiring. One is that the mother holds the child and shakes her body. The camera shakes and the corner of the camera when the mother gets up before is very surprising.
Another is the metaphor of the uncle. In fact, everyone noticed that there is no one who hides in the ceiling except for the cloaked girl. The uncle has always just quietly watched the mother and daughter dodging quickly. I think it is a metaphor for life. The sexism involuntarily revealed in the film can’t be seen, can’t be touched, but it’s always there watching you silently (there is indeed such a sexist scene in the film, for example, the uncle of the landlord must have no reason to be the mother’s unlocked garage, and the mother hugs you in the middle of the night Running with the child on the street and meeting the police when the police got off the car, the first sentence asked was not what happened, but how did you come out like this (referring to not wearing a headscarf) and said "do you think this is in Switzerland")
