A couple drove to a villa in the suburbs for the weekend. The husband wanted to make up for the rift between the husband and wife through an exciting bondage sex game. wife, and the intrusion of a hungry wild dog also begins to threaten her life.

Since the new version of "Joker's Soul" became popular, Stephen King's novel has become a favorite again, and this film is adapted from his horror novel of the same name. The main characters of the whole film are the husband and wife. After the death of the husband, the frightened wife also begins to have hallucinations. The dead husband, the moonlight death, and the shadow of childhood follow one after another. As time goes by, the heroine begins to distinguish It is unclear which is an illusion and which is reality, and sometimes the illusion is more deadly than the reality.

In general, this horror film is not very scary except for being a little bloody. It is different from ordinary horror films. The rhythm of this film is relatively slow, and the large dialogue between the heroine and the hero caused by the hallucination in the middle is slightly procrastinated. , the second half of the memories are more like the flashbacks of life experienced before death. The horror point of this film is not the wild dog that seems to threaten the life of the heroine, but the shadow of being molested by her father in her childhood. The plot of the heroine finally conquering the shadow and saving herself is a bit like a healing movie. However, the final reversal of Moonlight Reaper reminds the audience once again that this is Stephen King's novel, not chicken soup for the soul.
