Fear is not enough, love is more than enough

The music is good and adds a lot to the movie.
I especially like the background music at the beginning and end, melodious, sad, and tragic. .

I am not a horror movie lover, I basically don't watch horror movies, and the scope of acceptance is limited to European and American horror movies without ghosts, and this movie is completely for Emily Blunt.
From the perspective of a horror movie, my personal feeling is that this movie is basically not scary, but the whole atmosphere is well created, and the pictures, special effects, and music are not bad. The script is flawed. I feel that in recent years, American horror films have the tendency to transplant the spirit of Asian horror films. For example, "American Strange Story" uses ghosts to accuse incest crimes. "Guiwai Shenhao" is completely the model of Japanese horror films. If it is not a horror film If you are a fan, you will be really frightened. The recent "Ghosts and Gods" is more of an Asian model of revenge and ghosts. It is no wonder that Westerners who are used to bloody horror will be puzzled when they see it, and they don't understand its horror at all. For Asian audiences accustomed to such horror films, it can only be regarded as barely passing. WIND CHLL's script, as a horror film, is really unsatisfactory. This kind of subject matter may be relatively new in the West, but it is really relatively pediatric in Asia. It doesn't even give the injustice a grand title, is it an accusation? The cop with countless murders? Such a reason is too weak. It feels terrifying for terror's sake.
Of course, the film still shines. Although the horror is not satisfactory, the second main line of the whole story, which is the love line, can be said to be very successful.
The hero has been secretly in love with the heroine in the same school. The heroine needs a ride home on Christmas Eve, so he deliberately posted a ride-hailing advertisement on the bulletin board to win the opportunity to coexist with the heroine. It was supposed to be a romantic love story, as the protagonist planned, but an unexpected turn of events made the tone of the love story sad. The heroine's feelings for him, from gratitude, doubt, fear, sympathy, liking, to the last reluctance, when I heard the last line of the hero before he died 'You know what do different, next time I just walk up to class, say hi' (Do you know what is the real change for me? Next time I see you in the classroom, I can say hi to you.), I'm really a little touched, for his love, for his Perseverance. The heroine was obviously moved too, she slowly moved her face towards him and kissed him. When she climbed on the telephone pole, connected the phone and went back to the car, the hero was dead. Afterwards, passing truck drivers came to rescue them. The story should have ended here, but no, it was another supernatural car accident, and they went back to the starting point. In the end, the male protagonist reappears as a ghost, he smiles and mutters to the female lead 'I've told you eveything adventurely, it will be ok, just be the sweeties funny story we have', and the female lead bursts into tears. The sun was dazzling, she finally walked to the gas station with the help of the male protagonist, the police car roared, her eyes were solemn, tears were shining, and she looked at the only photo of the male protagonist in the phone, with mixed feelings, maybe no one could understand this. How is she feeling at the moment.

  • Guy: So, did your parents do the whole traditional family Christmas?

    Girl: Yeah.

    [pause]

    Girl: You?

    Guy: No, my grandparents are Dutch. So I was raised on salted licorice and Sinterklaus.

    Girl: How is that different from regular Santa Claus?

    Guy: Well, instead of the North Pole, he lives in Spain and instead of elves, he's got this enforcer named Black Pete. So he's basically like your Santa Claus, only scarier.
