Is the spinning top laying the foundation for the future Pan God? The movie does a great job of creating an atmosphere, but in fact, horror is not the point, war and humanity...

In the enclosed space, the corruption of the human hearts of the great era is reflected. The story is suspenseful, and I thought the doctor was a bad guy in the middle. Ribbons/bloodstains, "gold" rings/gold, bombs/gasoline, corpse pools/stillbirth potions, comic strips/poems...a series of visual correspondences. The ghost of Sandy, made with makeup and special effects, is unforgettable. A Spanish civil war has spawned so many masterpieces, and China's tragic civil war has been in...

Although the early works of the spinning top are green, the color can be seen. This is not as simple as a ghost story. The prototype of Pan's Labyrinth and The Shape of...

The top tells a war-torn society from the perspective of children. "Pan's Labyrinth" has more or less the shadow of this movie, and also has a similar metaphor....

7.5, reflective film about the Spanish Civil War, children displaced by war. The director is the director of Pan Shen's Labyrinth, and the producer of Lone Castle's horror, all of which value thinking over terror. In karma, the heavy gold bar delayed his escape and was eventually eaten by a...

3.5. It is indeed Toro's works that are more profound and have his own views on society and history. In Toro's world (or in Mexico's) death and ghosts are a part of life, so it's a lot easier to understand the "scare" of anticipation in the movie. But I personally don't like the progression of every step of the plot or the tone of the melodrama, it's a bit too naive. But that's Toro's...

Some scenes were shot like Rembrandt's oil paintings, like Sandman's cartoons, coincidental and oppressive bombs, mythical movie poems that are prophetic and allegory, tearful mystery,...

People are scarier than ghosts... The story is relatively simple, with metaphors but lack of skill. PS: 2016.8.27 watching the movie with Ting, I fell...

What is a ghost? A tragedy destined to repeat itself? Or momentary pain. It's something that's dead but sometimes seems to be alive, an emotion stuck in time, like a blurry photo, or an insect trapped in amber, the ghost is...

The doctor is the highlight of the whole show
I didn't expect the film to be so good
From the beginning of the monologue to the final echo, I feel that the doctor is great. Alas, the doctor knows Carmen’s betrayal but waits for her until the final promise to the child after his death. He is indeed a gentleman, but the initials on the...

Revolutionary film
In the early works directed by Pan Shen Maze and HELL BOY, it seems that this fat man began to sing the proletarian revolution with a supernatural skin as soon as he debuted. Even if it is a ghost film, I don’t forget to criticize feudal superstition. The most brilliant detail is the deformed baby...

Casares: [Carlos weeping over Casares returns his rifle to his side or lap as Jamie forces Carlos to get going]
[voice over narration]
Casares: What is a ghost? A tragedy condemned to repeat itself time and again? An instant of pain, perhaps. Something dead which still seems to be alive. An emotion suspended in time. Like a blurred photograph. Like an insect trapped in amber. A ghost is me.
