Originally, I felt that the first hour or so was actually a bit boring, the rhythm was relatively slow, and there was no shock as imagined. At the beginning, I actually suspected that the hostess's family was dead, because they never thought of leaving the house, and there was no communication with the outside world, and everything had an unusual and strange atmosphere. There is also the abnormal behavior of the servant trio who joined later. At first, they thought they were here to persecute the hostess' family and want to occupy the magpie's nest, but they did not expect that it was actually to protect them. The reversal and reversal of the final ending is really shocking! The constant mention of the intruder throughout the article is actually a foreshadowing. It turned out that they were all dead, but in fact the intruders who kept mentioning at the beginning were the living people. Every time the living people tried to move into the house, they were regarded as intruders and were driven away. That scary old lady turned out to be a living person too, a psychic. Thought she possessed her daughter, but in fact her daughter possessed her. At the end, the heroine and the two children knew the truth that they had already died, and they shouted together the parts of us that were not dead. It was really deafening, heart-wrenching, shocking, and terrifying!

Rarely watch horror movies and feel shocked, this one does it!
