This is the result of making a movie without writing a script

This film actually has a lot of good points, it has many elements:

1. Because it is sexually transmitted, it alludes to diseases such as syphilis and AIDS.

2. Because monsters take their lives step by step, I am more inclined to this disease alluding to AIDS, which slowly destroys your immune system.

3. But I have passed an article in the past and talked about our country’s legend about venereal diseases, which is that it can be cured by infecting it to others. There are also people with AIDS who deliberately promiscuously retaliate against society.

4. Tieba/Know the well-known question, "Give you 100 million, so that the snail that will kill you in seconds will chase you forever". Compared to this problem. Compared with the super snail, the monster in the film has several advantages. It does not teleport, does not refresh its position, is large and easy to be seen, and will not be killed in seconds when it is touched. It can transfer hatred by having sex with others. Of course the disadvantage is that there is no one hundred million yuan for you.

5. This feeling of chasing after it makes me feel like a spoon murderer, even though this movie can't even compare to a spoon murderer.

The shortcoming of this film is that it has been completely out of control since the movie monster first appeared in the abandoned building. Basically, I can take pictures wherever I think about it. At first no one could see it, but later this thing had a physical presence again. At first, even if it was shot, it was fine, but after falling into the pool, he shot it off with a headshot. How to solve this curse and let it stop chasing? I don't know, but it walks very slowly, just go in circles with it. So what's the point of you shooting this film for 100 minutes? The whole film is that we accompany the heroine to go in circles, from the city to the suburbs, from the suburbs to the house, from the house to the beach, and finally to the swimming pool. 99% of the content of the whole film has passed, and then you tell A thing like me can be done once and for all with a revolver? WTF?

    8.0/10. ①The heroine was entangled by a ghost (the setting was sexually transmitted) and temporarily broke free of the ghost with the help of her friends (whether the ghost is dead or not is an open ending). ② Creation of a thrilling atmosphere (some of which create a cold sense of horror through the contrast between coldness and publicity): dilapidated and desolate setting; dark tones; a lot of dark space; slow narrative rhythm (create a sense of depression); many high Angled shots; lots of ghostly movement and transitions; heavy use of medium long shots (sometimes close-ups, but rarely close-ups) long shots to match traditional feature film-style character performances (i.e. more aggressive performances, especially fear or happy); lots of panicking characters and people/ghosts walking slowly from afar; great carpenter-like soundtrack. ③ The use of light and shadow in the final battle with the ghost pool is great (learned from "The Leopard"). ④The setting is not complete and difficult to justify; the narrative rhythm of art film style is too misplaced with the performance of traditional feature film style.

    A metaphor for AIDS? Or a metaphor for syphilis?

  • Yara: When I was a little girl my parents would not allow me to go south of 8th mile. And I did not even know what that meant until I got a little older. And I started realizing that. That was where the city started and the suburbs ended. And I used to think about how shitty and weird was that. I mean I had to ask permission to go to the state fair with my best friend and her parents only because it was a few blocks past the border.
