At least it didn't frighten me out of the theater

Tonight, I was invited by my schoolgirl to watch this movie. This is my first time watching a horror movie in the cinema, my first time watching a horror movie on Qingming Festival, and my first time going to the cinema with a girl to watch a horror movie, but the quality of the movie is really not very good. I watched the trailer before watching it, and it was more or less okay. During the process, I found out that the most frightening parts of the original film were all cut into trailers and released. There was no scaring in the whole process, but I found it a bit funny. "Dead Silence", which is also based on puppets, is very different and cannot be compared at all. Instead, a lot of effort and plot settings have been made on puppets. But this one didn't. It didn't let Ou play its importance in the plot. It became a kind of decoration and props. In the end, a masked person appeared directly. It was too speechless. I thought they would be very suspenseful in the point set earlier, and there would be a lot of information in what my mother said, but it seems that I thought too much about it myself, sweat! At the end, the ending was hastily, and the handling was not in place. In short, this film is not strong enough, at least it didn't frighten me out of the theater.

    A person like me who rejects all horror films was fooled into the movie theater to watch this, covering his face all the time, but in fact there were no ghosts at all. I thought it was a story about a man and an evil spirit signing a contract to sacrifice the heroine, but I didn’t expect it. It’s a psychology story that refuses to grow up. In the end, don’t leave me alone. It’s sighing. Maybe he just wanted a kiss from beginning to end. Like the movie critics said, monsters don’t deserve to live.

    A film that can justify itself

    Greta Evans: No.

    Malcolm: Close?

    Greta Evans: Um... not at all. No.
