1. Priests are basically useless
In the past religious demon series and exorcism series, the priest and the holy water holy relic in his hands can more or less start to play a role. The priest in this film has basically no substantive role except for being bold.
When I first entered the monastery, I failed to see that the abbot who appeared in the dark was speaking wrong. Even the audience could feel the abbot's evil tone, but the priest was actually indifferent.
Seduced by demons at night, he fell into the tomb by himself. If it wasn't for the nun's quick reaction and natural psychic feeling to rescue him in time, it would basically be the fate of being buried alive.
When encountering zombie mobs, the priest is helpless, and has to rely on the French brother's axe and musket to solve the problem.
In the end, facing the great demon Valak, he was even more powerless to fight back. Without reading two verses, he was smashed to death by the wall with his eyes.
I feel that the reason why the church sent this priest here is that the archbishops who are probably good at fortune-telling think that he is lucky and that he has not yet reached the limit, so he should not be in this battle, so they sent him to have a look, and they did not expect to say what to do. Sample. After all, he was facing one of the seventy-two demon gods. Although he was ranked more than 60, he was still a well-known demon. It would be difficult for an ordinary human priest to deal with a demon of this level that restores full mana.
The only function is to help and guide the little nun Irene, and at the same time help her strengthen her courage and recharge her faith.
2. Sister Erin's worldview
Although the trainee nun Irene grew up in the monastery, she has a cheerful personality, respects science, and basically does not believe in ghosts and gods. The reason why she was selected to investigate the monastery may be because of this reason. If she was replaced by other nuns who believed in ghosts and gods, it was estimated that when she entered the gate of the monastery, she was scared to pee. How could she sleep at midnight like Irene? Go to the cemetery in the middle of the night to find the priest.
What I saw in the monastery made Irene understand that the devil is not just a legend, but a real existence. So with the help of the priest, the line of fire turned positive and became an official nun with full faith.
When she finally confronted Valak, Irene was not afraid of danger, and she was still in a hurry when she was dying.
Although it is said that the demon Valak was suddenly beaten back to his hometown because of his IQ arrears, the main reason was that he was paralyzed and overwhelmed, but little nun Irene's courage and courage beyond ordinary people also played a very important role.
I don't know if I can happily tell the story of dinosaurs to children after this is over.
3. Silly Bold French
Usually people in the village mentioned that the monastery had to spit to get rid of bad luck. Horses dared not go forward when they got into the woods. Only the foolish and daring Frenchman dared to send daily supplies to the monastery alone.
Even so, the nun who hanged at the door still frightened him so much that he couldn't sleep well. In fact, the devil didn't think much of him, and using nightmares and hanging ghosts in the cemetery was a warning to him not to come again.
However, the foolish and bold had uneasy conscience and worried about the priest and nun, so he returned to the monastery with a shotgun and axe. There was no problem with dealing with mobs and zombies, but it was almost completely useless against the demon Valak.
The enchantment trace on the last neck is also the punishment for the devil to repeatedly offend him for not obeying and dissuading him: don't be complacent, kid, you will suffer in the future. .
4. Arrogant and somewhat ignorant of the so-called demon Valak
After the unexpected unblocking, I originally thought that the sky is high and the birds fly and the sea is wide. Can't get out. I must be scolding my mother secretly in my heart: How can you be careless?
Wait, wait, and finally wait for the trio of priest and nun Sha Bold, and little nun Irene was selected as the most suitable target for possession. So, the priest was buried alive, scaring the French away, and the little nun just had lunch on a plate, so I didn't feel in a hurry, I kept the delicious food and ate it slowly. Unexpectedly, the little nun saved the priest, the Frenchman came back with a shotgun, and found the blood of Jesus. Wallack thought to himself, "Fuck, you've made a miscalculation again, well, let's stop being fancy and go to battle in person."
Maybe it was too easy for the Frenchman and the priest to faint, and the old problem of being overwhelmed was committed again. He displayed a pose of water hibiscus in the water, and the sly little nun spat out Jesus' blood back to his hometown.
I don't know what Wallack thought on the way home. I guess he would have to slap himself a few big mouths after he understood it. When he returned to his hometown, he was embarrassed to mention it when he saw 71 brothers.
The whole film is different from traditional exorcism films. It is not enough thriller and more than funny. It is very different from the traditional Wen's horror series, and it is more like the style of magic films.
Another flaw is the color matching of the film, which is completely different from the color matching of the "The Conjuring" and "Annabelle" series. It is fuzzy and dark, and the color of the scene is too monotonous, which makes the film a bit lacking in texture.
Hope the upcoming "Nun 2" is a masterpiece worth looking forward to.
