"Self-knowledge"

Sherman 2022-04-19 09:01:21

Many people will compare this work with "The Sixth Sense". I watched "The Sixth Sense" first, and I have a certain understanding of the plot of "Frightening Island", so when watching this movie, I'm not surprised that the truth is revealed at the end. But I think if I hadn't read the plot introduction, I might have been really surprised by the screenwriter's arrangement in the end. The heroine in the movie is neurotic and mentally unstable. Facing three weird servants, she always feels that others are disturbing her life. As everyone knows, he disturbs the lives of others. When a ghost has no self-knowledge, it falls into a kind of reincarnation that cannot extricate itself. Life is short and full of ups and downs, the world after death still has to struggle with people in the world, the fate of ghosts is much worse than that of living people, living people can still move to escape, and the female ghost who killed her children can only be with you. The dead children are always in the house, and there is only a thick fog outside the house.
