A fairytale horror story

The first half of the film basically maintains the general routine of a horror film - creating a terrifying atmosphere, and when the mother sees the real Yuzi coming out of the room, the background music suddenly changes from the previous horror and thriller to a sad one, and the film also changes. Start walking towards the real thing it wants to express. Especially the muddy water surging out of the elevator at the end of the film also pushed the emotional tone of the whole film to a climax. At that moment, I felt that the terrifying atmosphere of the first half that I thought was a little dull before was laid to watch now. How well it came. The film as a whole is not overly scary, just like the film does not deliberately imply some kind of phenomenon in society. The faint horror atmosphere slowly created in the first half and the sublimation of maternal love in the second half make people feel as if everything came naturally and not so abruptly. If it comes out of my mouth, I believe this will be a fairy tale that children like very much. In general, after watching the whole movie, you won't have lingering fears like other horror movies because of one of the horror scenes, but it seems that you have just drank a cup of light hot coffee and a warm feeling arises spontaneously.

I remember that I went outside to rent a disc to watch this movie. The overall feeling was very general, but I was still impressed by the red schoolbag, especially after my mother said that I was carrying a red schoolbag when I was a child... OTZ.. .Also, I have never understood, when the door in front of the little girl opened, how did so much water come down like a flood, it's really strong~

An alternative horror film that takes the emotional route, it is worth watching. The scene where the mother hugs the ghost child to say goodbye to her child in the elevator almost cried. Great mother's love. In addition, there are few horror scenes in this film. The director spent a lot of time to set off the atmosphere, so the moment when the real ghost came out was really scary. The pace of the first half was slow, so be patient.
