I don't want to say how bad this girl named Lily is, she's just a ten year old kid, when her parents tried to burn her in the credits, I'm sure a lot of people feel sorry for her and want to protect her, her eyes Especially lovable, very long and very symbolic.

Just as Lily's father said, she has been possessed by the devil since she was born, and her love and hatred have been magnified infinitely, which is why she did this series of terrifying things.

All she asks of the heroine is to pamper her well, meet all her needs, and protect her, so that she is still a ten-year-old child, just a child in school.

She kills her parents' siblings just because she doesn't get their parents' dedicated love in a big family; she kills the heroine's boyfriend just because she wants the heroine to put all her feelings on her; she kills The dead heroine's police friend, just because he would join forces with the heroine to kill her; she killed the little boy's parents maybe because they listened to his troubles in the group activity and wanted to help him get rid of it as soon as possible...

She wanted to leave school after school After eating ice cream, wanting to buy new clothes, wanting to get love, this is completely the idea that a ten-year-old girl should have. I think everyone has it. When everyone is young, we will not be stern or not allowed by our parents. Wanting to kill them, Lily was possessed by the devil, so when she couldn't be satisfied, she would use extreme ways to satisfy what she wanted.

The only thing needed to kill Lily is not to be afraid, not to be afraid, so that there is power.

If the heroine's boyfriend is not afraid of wasps, he will not be frightened by the fantasy wasp and kill himself; if the heroine's police friend is not afraid of the vicious dog, he will not shoot at the fantasy dog ​​but in fact Hit herself; if Lily's mother wasn't afraid of the oven, she wouldn't fantasize about being locked in the oven and set on fire; if Lily's father wasn't afraid of his devil-possessed daughter, he wouldn't kill fantasies with a fork The daughter who appeared was actually someone else, and then died in the chaos... The

heroine was able to kill Lily, mainly because she was no longer afraid of death, and faced her dead mother frankly, fearless, and finally survived and sank into the water. The car swam ashore.

Believe in yourself, no longer fear, you will have power, no devil can hurt you, this is probably one of the themes of the film.

Another theme is that there is only one thought between love and hate, don't be possessed by the devil, look down on everything, so as not to go to hell after death.
