The family has moved into a new home. His mother is a composer, Relais, and his father, Qiaoxi, is a teacher. There are three children in the family, brother Dalton, brother Foster and sister Cali.
The kids didn't get used to the environment in their new home, Foster couldn't fall asleep in his room, and Cali woke up from time to time. After my mother put Cali to sleep again, she heard an abnormal noise in the attic, so she went up to check, but found nothing abnormal.
The books that my mother arranged were placed on the bookshelf, and fell off the bookshelf after a while. The mother therefore asked the children if they had touched the books, and the children answered that they had not touched the books.
While Dalton was playing upstairs at night, the door to the attic opened on its own. Driven by curiosity, Dalton unfortunately fell off the ladder when he tried to turn on the light. When Dalton woke up, he was terrified by what he saw before him. Riley and Josh heard the sound and came to the attic and gave Doyle I checked the injury and found no problem.
Early the next morning, Dalton fell into a coma. After going to the hospital for examination, the results were normal. The doctor who had no choice could only let Dalton go home for conservative treatment.
A battered Riley was composing when he heard an unusual gasp from Cali's monitor. And when the monitor came out: I want her to say this, Cali burst into tears, and Riley rushed into the room but found nothing unusual.
When Riley was helping Foster clean up the room, Foster's certificate made Riley very happy, but then Foster said he was afraid of Dalton, and when Riley asked why, Foster said: He was afraid of Dalton walking around at night. But Riley knew that Dalton couldn't get out of bed and walk.
While sleeping at night, Riley and Josh talked about what happened in Cali's room, but Josh didn't seem to care much. Just as the two were discussing, there was a knock on the door from downstairs. When Josie went downstairs to check, there was no one in front of the door, and the alert Josie pulled the door bolt. At the same time, there was crying in Cali's room. When Ryley rushed into Cali's room, he found a man standing by the window. Ryley yelled for this, but when Josh rushed over to check, he found nothing. At the same time, the alarm downstairs sounded. When Josie went downstairs to check, the door was opened and the latch was removed, but Josie checked the whole house and found nothing unusual.
When Riley was making Dalton's bed the next day, he found a bloody handprint on the sheet next to Dalton's feet.
At night, Relais woke up from a nightmare and suddenly saw a man pacing the corridor outside the window. After going back and forth many times, he suddenly walked into the house from outside the corridor and rushed towards Relais, and this The man was the man who had appeared by Cali's bed earlier. Because of this, Riley couldn't stand it, so he proposed to Josie to move, and Josie agreed.
But even after moving to a new home, a boy about the same age as Dalton appeared in the new home running around the house, and Riley, who was helpless, could only ask the priest for help.
But when Josh came home, Josh thought that Riley's idea of exorcism was too extreme, but Josh's mother said that what happened in this house was real because she came when she was wandering. This house, a demon was found in Dalton's room, and when she asked him what he wanted, the demon said he wanted Dalton. After speaking, the demon appeared and tossed Dalton's room into pieces, and Dalton was also thrown to the ground.
For this reason, they invited Elis's team to inspect the entire room. There was indeed more than one ghost in the room, and Elis also saw the appearance of the demon, which was all black and had black hooves. Spider-like fingers. And Elis's explanation for Dalton's state is that he is a soul traveler who wandered into another world in a dream and lost his way, so that the connection between the body and the soul is getting weaker and weaker, so there will be people around him. So many souls wanted to possess his body, and the closest thing to his body was this demon. And when Josh felt that it was too absurd after listening to Elis' explanation, he invited Elis' team away.
But when Josie looked at Dalton's painting of himself wandering, he realized what Elise was saying was true, so he agreed to the psychic ritual.
The Elis team, who came back, tried to talk to Dalton, but Dalton told Elis that he couldn't speak or the demons would hurt him, and when the exchange came to an end, Dalton kept calling for help, and finally Elis pointed He passed out screaming, and then Dalton came from the bed between the four, and instantly subdued the four, and finally Elis used his own power to expel the demon.
After the channeling, Elis notified Josie's mother Loren for the first time, and Loren told Dalton the truth of the matter was that he inherited Josie's system, and Josie was also parasitized by a parasite a long time ago. harassment, and Loren's photos all have an old woman by Josie's side. This parasitic ghost will lure Josie to a foreign land and take possession of his body.
And the only way to save Dalton is for Josh to travel to a foreign land, find Dalton and bring him back. After many obstacles, he returned to the real world at the last moment of the ghost's attempt to take possession of his body, and Dalton regained consciousness.
When everyone thought it was over, Elise found a clue in Josie's nails, so she took a picture of Josie with a camera, and in the photo she saw Josie turned into an old woman, and she was angry Josie strangled Elis.
When Relais heard the abnormal sound, he came over and saw Elis's death. He searched for Josh to no avail, and finally found the truth of the incident from the camera on the ground. At this time, Josh also put his hand on Riley's shoulder. Go up and say: All is well.

First of all, let's not talk about the quality of the film, let's take a look at the director of this film, Wen Ziren. If you like horror movies, you must be very familiar with this director. Wen Ziren was born in Malaysia and grew up in Australia. In the early years, when he was a university student in Melbourne, he majored in the division of Chinese ethnic groups. The understanding of eastern exotic culture also had a great influence on James Wen's directing style. Another important factor was the blow of his father's death when he was 14 years old. .
In 2004, Wen Ziren, who was favored by Hollywood, directed "The Chainsaw" and achieved great success. After that, he went on to work behind the scenes in the "Saw" series, so viewers who have seen "Saw" and were impressed by the bloody violence in it will definitely be impressed with the director's style.
Wen Ziren met his friend Leigh , and the two entered the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology to continue their studies together. Then, the two joined an unofficial film group "Spike Pike" that advocates shooting "modern-style brutal horror films", where they live with other young talents who love horror and thriller films. It laid a solid foundation for them to create their own unique horror movies in the future.
And Wen Ziren's Chinese background combined with the experience of studying abroad in the West, so his movie style is not like creating a terrifying atmosphere through intimidation. The soundtrack in his movies has contributed to the creation of a terrifying atmosphere. And this kind of terrifying feeling comes not only from physical but also from psychological stimulation, so when watching his movies, there will be a feeling of "addiction", although I am scared, but I still enjoy it.
After the above introduction to the director, if you look at the "Latent" series of films that are different from the "Chainsaw" series of films, you will find that the two are very different. In addition to creating a bloody scene that is close to the limit of human endurance, the "Chainsaw" series also deeply explores the issue of human nature, while the film "Hidden" has no bloody scenes and no discussion of human nature. It actually tells a simple story. , but it contains a lot of supernatural elements such as: sleepwalking, psychic, out of body, possession, exorcism and so on.
Through the above elements, it can be found that it contains both Chinese and Western elements, as well as a combination of fantasy and reality. When an excellent soundtrack adds rich elements and profound screenwriting skills to create a movie, it is difficult to think whether it looks good or not. If you really want to find something that is not good enough for this film, it is mentioned earlier that the extended meaning behind the story is not deep enough, and the scene where Dalton is caught by the devil does not match the atmosphere created in the house, which is contrary to the and sense.

So to sum up, if you can't accept too violent and bloody pictures but want to feel the charm of Wen Ziren's movies, then this movie is definitely worth watching.
The only advice I can give is to ask someone to turn off the lights and put on headphones.
