Too bad the story is too weak

As a Cthulhu mythology lover, seeing the tentacles in the poster, I knew that this movie is not easy

It's a pity that there is a gram frame, and the plot is barely crammed into it.

I think some people say that they are discussing the derogatory relationship between people and religion... Religion is almost an essential element of a grammatical story, maybe the screenwriter really didn't think so deeply

Whether it is the doctor's idea of ​​resurrecting his daughter, or the setting that unknown creatures were born through the human body, they are all too shallow.

Even the "indescribable" of the gram is only expressed through the mouth of the characters - people who join the cult will gradually become evil/monster-like

And the doctor saw the universe at the moment when it was about to dissipate... I was? ? ? You have been talking about you wanting to save your daughter, and now you are talking about the universe, who are you lying to? ? ?

Only the huge black triangle in the other world at the end reminds me of the pitch-black mountains that are as sharp as knives in "Crazy Mountains"

Don't say it's an art film... If the director really wanted to make it into an art film, he wouldn't put so much messy content in it that didn't make any sense for the plot.

If you have to say what this movie is discussing, it is nothing more than what the Cthulhu mythology itself mentioned-if people want to gain power that does not belong to themselves, if they want to become gods, they will only end up devoured by the true god

    Cthulhu-themed films, religion, and indescribable monsters are all my favorites. Such a niche subject, I still have to support it. It would be better if there were some more thoughtful settings.

    A Cthulhu family with a good atmosphere. The monster is not big, but the details are quite rich and changeable. Can such a well-made monster make me see it clearly? There are too many human characters yelling at each other and it is annoying, and the script is a little tender. The actor who plays the old state policeman is the male protagonist of "Ling Ying", and he is afraid of the veteran.
