      Horror and Maternal Love

      This work is a remake of the United States. Compared with the original Japanese version, the American version does not simply create a horror picture, but takes the great maternal love to the extreme. In the face of the terrifying "ghost water", the mother willingly gave her life in order to protect her daughter, leaving the horror and horror to herself. The plot of the film is bizarre, and many sudden scenes have a horrifying effect. But in the end, everyone will be moved to tears by the...

      Mom and daughter

      When the movie was about to end, the little girl and her father were about to get out of the elevator together, but suddenly the elevator door closed her inside. The music shed like moonlight, a pair of mother's hands held the little girl's shoulders, she looked up, "Mom." But the picture only had the little girl's face and mother's hands, and the dead mother slowly turned her daughter's body around. In the past, I would comb her hair and tie it into a ponytail.

          I found out. His...

      The blank in Japan, the American can’t learn

      After looking at it, I discovered that there are many familiar celebrities in it! But there is no use other than the heroine Connally, although the story is not bad, the emotions are also sincere, and the actors perform well. But the atmosphere and mood in the original story can be said to be completely absent here. It's a few minutes longer than the original Japanese version, but it's just a little bit superfluous.

      For example, did the two gangsters try to highlight the...

      One story, two styles

      I probably watched this film when I was in junior high school, but I haven't watched it in its entirety. It took more than an hour to finish it today.

The husband believes that the wife is unable to take care of her daughter. After many mediations, the husband decides to sue the wife to earn the support of the daughter. right.

      My beautiful daughter, as long as you need, I will be by your side.

      My beautiful daughter, as long as you need, I will be by your side.

      Tears collapsed.

      This is not a horror movie, this is an eternal love movie.

      Such a good film actually only has this point. It's no wonder that Li Chao is so violent and impetuous.

      Unexpectedly, it's not bad. This adaptation does not blindly follow American horror and mindless piles of scary scenes. Instead, it focuses on the environment and the characters that are gradually collapsing, especially the dark and damp dilapidated apartment, full of atmosphere, and the flooded dim room on the tenth floor is even more imaginative. The family trauma on the emotional core is actually relatively boring, the American-style family disputes are the same, and the ending is a little...

    "Dark Water" is a remake of the movie, which basically maintains the structure of the original plot, and the creation of a horrible atmosphere and the performance of the actors are also in place. The importance of the "water" prop in the film is also obvious. Although it is not the first time that "water" has been used in horror films, this time "water" is not common in other Japanese-style horror movies. , Even just looking at the...
