Cat and dog fights, Egyptian gold captains, and shouting in dangerous situations

Elements such as ancient Egypt, pyramids, Anubis, etc., are like the source of the power of the Egyptian series of horror movies. They are inexhaustible. Although this cold rice has been fried countless times, it still feels a little tasteful every time. After all Attached to the magnificent and magical ancient Egyptian culture, that ID is already worth some money.
I once read a horror adventure novel written by a German writer - "Jackhead God: Anubis", the content in it is somewhat similar to this movie, all the ancient Ability Gods have survived underground until now. Novels can be written in great detail thanks to their larger size, but not movies, where the director must tell everyone an at least partially complete story in an hour and a half. This film is a low-budget production, and there are too many restrictions, so soon after the film started, a group of people entered the pyramid hastily. The team consisted of an archaeologist (Stanford professor), his daughter, two documentary filmmakers, a mechanic expert, and an Egyptian military officer who seemed to have nothing to do with the story at first and had a rude attitude. In fact, he was very important later. , as can be seen from the diary of the senior tomb robbers, people have always known that there is a pyramid here long before the satellite discovered the pyramid. In the film, the Egyptian officer can use a ladder to directly enter the main tomb at the bottom of the pyramid, which shows that the tomb robbers and even himself have come in more than once. In addition, what do Anubis and those terrible cats rely on to survive today? of? My brain hole thinks that there are local cult worshipers who regularly feed them or stock some animals around, wild dogs and so on make the entire pyramid area a small ecological area. If it is a big production, it will take 2 and a half hours. I believe that the subject will be very exciting if the director has sufficient layout space. In addition, the props of this film are a highlight. Our kobold Anubis has half a pair of shorts on his clothes after traveling through a thousand years. Is it a hint that when the Egyptians built this Anubis prison? Nubis was locked in by wearing a full set of the exquisite attire of the gods, and slowly only that was left. Combined with the background of Anubis as the son of Osiris, and the suggestion in the film that Osiris may be the first pharaoh of Egypt, I just want to know what Osiris was and what it was in ancient times... .... Is it the same virtue as a big raccoon, so there is a dog-headed son....... Blind

Well, let's admit the director's setting first. Here are some illogical points in the film.
1. In an environment that is already terrifying, and it is already clear that there is a great danger, in a state of escape, the shouting of a group of characters is completely convincing. In the film of slaughter and murder, the protagonist also shouted, but it was because he was injured or tortured. This film is good. Several protagonists were chased by the evil god, and they were torn in the pyramid with great echoes. Crying bitterly (please, people's instinct in extreme environments is to be highly stressed and unnecessarily suppressed), they are just as conspicuous as super-power searchlights in the dark, and even so, it took Anubis a long time to find it. They, this has to be said to be a huge failure.
2. The handling of some lines is too casual, completely destroying the horror effect brought by the lighting environment and sound! Many of the protagonists' ripping lines just seem to take place in the office. They are so cohesive, and they can ripped happily. Are they too daring or too timid? ? The setting of some scenes almost gave me the illusion that these gangs knew I was going to die before they came in, and they had already regarded death as home.
3. Anubis has no hair... Since it is called Jackal God, Jackal, it is a mammal. In this film, Anubis is smooth and his head is a wolf's head, but Because there is no hair, it looks like a crocodile head.... Another Egyptian god, Seth, cried in circles. This Nima is my patent. In addition, Anubis is indeed a dog, because cats hate it very much, and the two sides will meet each other.

Finally, considering that Anubis can live for such a long time, his eyes and pupils are still a little golden, and he can use scales, we will admit that Anubis is a wise "biological god", and friends who like curious can take a look. In general, if the director can sculpt more lines and the logic of the film, the subject matter itself has great potential!

    As for horror movies, I don't quite understand that the protagonist has suffered so much to die that he wants to release the evil spirits. The Cthulhu sent countless little monsters and couldn't stop them

    The subject matter comparable to "Dark Invasion" is so scum...

The Pyramid quotes

  • Holden: [on a video recording] This pyramid, unlike any structure other I've ever encountered, seems to have been built with the express purpose of keeping whatever is inside from escaping. If you come down here... bring guns.

  • Holden: Neither benign nor merciful
