Personal shallow understanding of the plot:
The male protagonist killed his ex-wife and successfully escaped the prosecution of the judge and the police, and deceived his current wife and daughter. And as a result, there was a certain amount of mental damage, so he needed to take medicine, calm himself through journaling and meditation, and know his true self.
The shadows in several movies are the male protagonist himself in other dimensions, including his writing sentences such as "Leave, now" in his diary, peeking at his daughter, and taking pictures. (It was originally an image of a warm father, but according to the movie, it had to shoot a thrilling atmosphere).
The most difficult thing to explain in this film is the structure of the house. The inside of the house is five centimeters longer than the outside. The water will be divided into two when it falls on the ground. There are long underground corridors and many rooms. There is an element of water in the rooms in the underground corridor, and one of the rooms has a setting similar to a patio. It is sunny outside the house, but it is rainy weather through this room, which is against common sense. Anyway, I think a lot of things don't make sense, so I understand this house as two possibilities:
The first possibility: everything is imagined by the male protagonist, and it is a virtual fake event. The second possibility: unconventional legends of gods and ghosts. This house is the devil's house, looking for the good people (those who made a big mistake and did not take any responsibility) and let the good people stay in the house and take the corresponding responsibility. I suspect that in the later period, the male protagonist may commit suicide after leaving his wife and daughter. There are two reasons in the film. First, in the final plot, the male protagonist took the initiative to confess his crime to his wife, and confessed to his wife that he decided to stay in this room to accept punishment. And the male protagonist himself has accepted the "fact" that he cannot leave the house. Second: In the last scene of the movie, the rental website has changed from "rented" to "available for rent". If the male protagonist continues to live in it to atone for his sins, the resident's house will not be rented out. (At the beginning, when the male protagonist checked in, he said that the house really had no personal belongings as described on the website, and even took the photos. It can be seen that the house will welcome the new owner with a blank face)
But from the plot of the movie, I prefer the second possibility, based on the behavior of the people in the town and the strange attitude towards the male protagonist.
Of course, there are more possibilities, and I accept different opinions and suggestions.
Except for the overall plot, I don't think it stands out from the few other thrillers I've seen. They use bgm, sudden appearance, and dark tones to produce scary effects. The most impressive scene should be the male protagonist turning off the lights from ten From half past midnight to 3:00, it means that the male protagonist has a vague concept of time in the house. During the period, the light in the study was turned off, the picture was completely dark, and the only light in the corridor seeped in through the cracks in the door. When I saw this scene, I really felt that I was in a dark, closed room and was afraid of the unknown around me, but the next scene The unconventional thing is that the lamp turns on by itself.
I watched it on Renren's video, and it has bilingual subtitles.
