A slow-moving horror movie. In fact, although the so-called "ghost" appears in this movie, it is not scary, and it may not be considered a thriller. It is a ghost or bloody or disgusting scary image in horror movies. There are very few here. The close-up lens allows the audience to see clearly that in most cases, it looks like ordinary people, and it walks slowly and firmly to people from a distance to create an atmosphere of tension and panic. It's just that the second half of the movie is a bit vague, and the ending is a bit sloppy. I can't do this movie ending that made me realize it! ! ! So if the heroine is touched, is she not a person? Anyway, I think Paul loves the heroine, but he is followed, and he is worried about the end. Forgive me for forgetting the name of the heroine. I don't want to watch it a second time, it's not my type of horror movie, so I don't want to go into it.

    3.5. The atmosphere is very well done, with an independent atmosphere like "Lost in the Canal"; even better is the electronic psychedelic type soundtrack, which has a strong retro flavor.

    At first I thought it was a B-grade youth horror film full of erotic exploitation, school men and women, vulgar love and other stereotyped elements. All changed in an instant. It turns out that it is so sad, even the suicidal act of running to the wild country ridge has turned into a sign of escaping reality away from relatives and friends, and licking the violence of life alone; I originally disliked the scheduling of the male gaze in the film, but in fact these The voyeuristic male is it itself. They are either misunderstood by the female protagonist as the attacking it, or parallel to the positional relationship of it in the camera, or directly transformed into it. It can be interpreted as erosion/injury originating from all sides, traveling through daily life, as always. In the future, I will never eat raw meat, ignore countless suggestive lines, and focus solely on audiovisual creation!
