After graduating from Hogwarts, Harry chose to take over this dark horror movie with a lot of grievances .
It is said that the resentment is heavy, but it does not come from DANIEL. It has been four years since the young lawyer he played with his son in funeral. Grief always drags down his work. The boss has to send him to take over the most troublesome case: to deal with the inheritance of a wealthy man in the north. His appearance not only aroused the resentment of the residents in the same district, but also died one after another (the most terrifying thing is that the dead were all children). But in order to save his hanging career, he must go to the houses of wealthy people.
The house is built on the island, and there is only one one-way road to and from. The level of this road is extremely low, and the entire road will be submerged at high tide, forming a natural barrier. The house is very large, in an old Victorian style, and the interior, even at three o'clock in the afternoon, is dim and dim. The story is on this stage.
In the middle of searching for the files, ARTHUR (DANIEL) discovered the mystery of the life experience of the rich man's dead son. The son was not biological, but the wife of the wealthy family received it from her unsteady sister, but unfortunately died in an accident, and even the body could not be recovered. The woman who lost her son had a deep resentment, and her suicide turned him into a female ghost in black, guiding her child to commit suicide everywhere.
In order to protect his child, ARTHUR worked hard to find the corpse of the son of a ghost. Unfortunately, he couldn't liberate the woman who was indulged in resentment. Finally, he died with his son and reunited with his wife in another world.
The story is like this, basically it is not much different from a normal ghost story, but it is quite an excellent one.
The stage itself is well designed, and the next plot is also reasonable. The most commendable is the female ghost, who is completely "yin and damp." It often appears in the corner of the screen, sometimes in the mirror, sometimes outside the window, and sometimes flashes by Daniel. From far and near, she seems to be able to emerge from any place at any time, and she will startle you if she doesn't guard it.
In addition to the picture, another essential element of a horror film is the soundtrack. Although I haven't studied this deeply, I can hear that all sounds are very forceful. With the cooperation of sound and picture, the kind of scary seems to double immediately.
The failure of this movie lies in the role, the growth of the characters has not been seen (and DANIEL is too young), and even the relationship between them is not explained clearly. Maybe this is a common problem with ghost movies. If you are too focused to "scare" the audience, you will naturally lose your color in other aspects.
If you have time, just take a look! Relying on scare is also divided into different levels.
