Memo

1. Humans are over-exploited and ghosts can't live in peace, so they will come to scare you. As a real estate elite, the male protagonist unfortunately became the unlucky person selected by the ghost. He and his boss discussed the development prospects in front of the cemetery, which is quite ironic.

2. The visual effect of the film is quite amazing. Many elements can be seen in the follow-up supernatural movies, such as automatic chair placement, dolls, spiritual world and so on.

3. Wen Ziren may benefit most from this film. At least "Dead Silence" and the two "Latent" have a considerable connection with this film, especially the latter, which is almost identical to the film's structure, and even Patrick Wilson, Wen's queen's queen, looks very similar to the film's male protagonist.

4. "Latent" clarifies the different dimensions of the spiritual world and the human world in the same time and space, and it is also shown in this film but not particularly emphasized (the young daughter and the mother pass through the body); Wen Ziren's greatest contribution is to materialize the spiritual world , Showing a kind of foggy state.

5. What kind of people or ghosts will stay in the spiritual world? It seems to be said in the film that it is those who do not know that they are dead and have not been able to go to heaven or hell. They look at the more spiritually alive people in the human world, especially the children. In this film, it seems that they want to use the spiritual power of these children to control the spiritual world; in "Latent" they simply say that they want to resurrect their souls by borrowing corpses. The former means that both the body and soul are lost, while the latter means that the body is still there and the soul is gone. This is where the worldviews of the two films differ greatly.

6. The aura of little girls and timid little boys are very good at acting, especially the little girl, whose 12-year-old death is really embarrassing.

7. There are actually two lines in the film. One is the existence of the spirit world calling for children with aura, and the other is that ghosts are disturbed and harass humans. These two lines cannot be unified. If the film ends after the little girl is found back, it may be more complete. The more houses are swallowed by snake feet. Although visually scary enough, it is more like the director's material has not been used up. The smart Wen Ziren really only used the first line.
