Missing a high-minded theme

First of all, let me state that I was able to watch this film completely because of the beautiful nurse, otherwise I would have ended this long ago.

Although horror films are not mainstream, successful horror films often have a high idea, or a rule that can be justified. For example, chainsaws, death is coming, all have such points.

After all, there are so many elements of horror, an enclosed space that cannot be escaped, unknown demons everywhere, bizarre parallel spaces, disunited fleeing teams, dirty walls, rusted iron doors, dim lights, flickering Fluorescent lamps, terrifying corpses, how to combine these things into a classic horror film requires a higher idea, which is precisely what this film lacks.

If everything is a girl's inner fantasy to insinuate the phenomenon of real society, the theme is still a bit obscure, not enough. . . . How to say, not good.

In addition to the "Silent Hill" that everyone is talking about, there are also "The Morgue" of the same type of film. Of course, "The Morgue" is not that kind of very successful film, and it can't be compared to "Silent Hill".

In short, there are no novel elements, the picture is still delicate, the plot is not tense enough, and there is no prominent conflict point.
