In this way, in the first half of the movie, I scolded it all over, and by the way questioned the taste of the friends who recommended this movie to me. However. Starting from fifty minutes, the above view was completely overturned. I really am a layman, I don't know Taishan.
Since I have always liked bloody violent movies, I suddenly became excited when a corpse with blood dripping from its intestines appeared. Uh. . Let alone discuss my personal psychological problems. . . The movie became compact from this time, various monsters emerged one after another, and the crowd's horror psychology was shown in detail. You know, facing a monster is not the most terrifying. When you feel that a monster is close at hand but you don't know where it is, any wind and grass can make you creepy, and the film creates this atmosphere to the fullest.
On the other hand, when humans are extremely fearful, they often try to find a spiritual support. When they have nowhere to vent their anger on fear, they often point the finger at the object they can rival-humans. Therefore, compared to the contest between people and monsters, the conflict between people in the movie is more exciting. We can see that as the fear deepens, the crowd's psychology becomes more and more flustered. They urgently need a reason that they can accept to explain all of this. At this time, the eschatological doctrine of the goddess appears at the right time, which is like saving lives for them. The straw is average. Because in their view this is a "reasonable" explanation, and more importantly, under this explanation, they have a way to solve the problem. Such a group of angry, fearful, and blind followers are in a way more terrifying than the monsters outside the door.
Especially worth mentioning is the end of the film. Although many people say it is unacceptable, in my opinion, it is simply a stroke of gods and can be used to worship. I don't even know what language to use to express the many feelings it brings to me, especially if it is not spoiled, there is no way to talk about it. But it is precisely because of this ending that the film has become one of the classics in my mind.
Finally, I personally think that the monster image created in this film can only be described in ordinary terms. There are a lot of monster movies, nothing more than the same, but this film focuses on psychology, and the monster is only a supplementary role, and it can be ignored. The protagonist's acting skills are ordinary, not very brilliant, but the goddess is quite good. Personally like goddess and grandma.
