Before the opening, let me briefly express my personal opinion: the soundtrack and expression of this film are outstanding, and the rhythm is also very compact, especially the turbulence and important news about the current situation that the whole film constantly conveyed through radio and TV is one of its highlights. The suspense in the mid-early stage is also in place, but it's a bit unfinished. Next, let's get down to business. "Doctor", as he himself said, is innocent. Of course, the film also gave him a good ending at the end, which can be regarded as a glimmer of light after a long depression. "Doctor" wants to rescue Patricia and Susan, even if he can't even take care of himself. This move is in great contrast to the radio news throughout the film. Even if the environment is difficult, there are still people who are willing to be kind. If the evil is compared to the night, then the "doctor" is the bright moon. The most unforgettable scene in the film: "Doctor" seemed very calm when he heard his wife's past encounters. When he heard that his wife now has a happy life, he nodded lightly with relief and satisfaction, as if to say: It's okay, as long as You're still alive and doing well, that's enough. Although you no longer belong to me, my arms will always be warm for you. To the good, to the "doctor".

    The original work is a close-to-integrative visual feast of lead-yellow classics. The only flaw may be that the simple concept of linking witches to the devil's cave cannot be accepted by the mainstream values ​​of the times - witches have long been habitually portrayed as victims. The complex transformation of Gua Shuai's remake of a violent reversal of good and evil, and the resulting dramatic increase in length and subversion of visual colors (complexity usually cannot be matched with rich and colorful) is almost an inevitable result. But your inevitability does not mean that the audience is willing to accept it. It's the same old problem: it should have started from scratch, and it had to be hard to subvert the old bottle with the new one. If you feel that it is difficult or dignified to take the title of the king and forty thieves, you can shoot a leopard head and force it to Liangshan, instead of stretching the seven warriors to six hours.

    To be honest, I watched the original version too late and didn't see anything good about it. There are a lot of bad tastes in this version. I really like the actors.
