A veritable "pit father"

To say "no zuo no die" model, I am afraid that the frustrated writer played by Ethan Hawke is well-deserved. In order to revive the "Xiangfeng", he took his family into danger and lived in a haunted house. Compared with John Cusack's "Phantom and Fierce Room 1408", he really became a "pit father".

Since the root of the crime is blamed on evil spirits, the atmosphere is definitely better than the bloody scenes of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. In "Sinister", watching the movie late at night, with the trance-like nervous and sleepwalking son under alcohol anesthesia, the first half of the film is quite good in terms of psychological thriller; the intervention of the fans and policemen brought the tragedies that were wiped out in the cycle to the surface one by one, which was originally highly malleable. , Unfortunately, the ghosts gradually appeared in the middle section. Even with the terrifying makeup and special effects, the audience lost the depression of their spiritual fantasy, and their attractiveness plummeted. Regardless of the hostile sheriff, the netizens who just want to stay out of the matter, the dubious police officers, and the conflicts within the family, the foreshadowings laid in the early days were not shown until the end, and the paragraphs that should be climax ended in haste, anticlimactic and disappointing.

If we don’t talk about ghosts and ghosts, in the end, it’s just that the mainland has become too stressed and mentally ill to pass the censorship, and his wife and children are forced to kill their husbands together to protect themselves. It is estimated that it will be even more shocking.

Sinister quotes

  • Ellison Oswalt: Pool Party '66.

    [Ellison plays the film reel and finds himself viewing a home video of a sun-lit swimming pool, a family dressed in 1960's fashions playing in it. The film rapidly cuts to the middle of the night; the family members are tied down to lawn chairs and an unseen being pulls them under the water. Their feet move feebly in a struggle to get out of the pool, and Ellison sees a hideous-looking man under the water, smiling at him from the screen]
