      The ending was a surprise!

      The whole film is basically good, the rhythm and soundtrack are very good, but the ending is too boring to play like this. It feels like you are playing qualifying with your teammates. Every time you call your teammates to start the team, and then your teammates die again and again, you take the head and run away silently. In the end, your teammates are defeated. , you TM actually surrendered.

      It can be seen from the whole movie that what the director wants to express is the...

      A horror theological movie with many advantages and many disadvantages [about redemption]

      I wanted to give it three points, but the rating is very low, but compared to horror movies, it really has his sights. Although there are many shortcomings, there are also many advantages.

      This film actually has a very good framework, many points can be deepened, and the theme can actually go deep into human nature [forgiveness and self-redemption].

      All is well except the ending

      ...For the sake of the front, it's all good... Four points (if it wasn't for the low score, I would have given a three, tsk) This summoning ceremony is indeed more reasonable. I think it was in the love crafts documentary. Look, "It's not just a person who draws an array in his own kitchen to summon the old god." Hahahaha Tucao full marks.

      The ending is really bad, really, don't force a suspenseful horror movie if you don't have enough money to do special effects, can't we just take...

      There is a problem with the ending

      For a person who can calm down and watch the movie, it took more than an hour to watch it. The director made the plot move forward a little bit, but it was a little bit slower, but the rhythm was not bad, there were some things, and the heroine's skills were not mentioned. This kind of wilderness The two-person show relies heavily on acting skills, and the epiphany of the heroine at the end can also be drawn into the play, but I don’t think the goddess really needs to be humanoid, it’s easy...
