wrong everything, wrong love

The Puppet Contract, from the name, instinctively thinks that this is a horror movie, but in my opinion, this is actually a sad and perfect movie of family and love. First of all, let's take a look at the plot: It's very simple. A female protagonist was tortured by her ex-boyfriend and finally decided to leave after a miscarriage. In order to avoid her boyfriend, she became a nanny and found out that she was taking care of a doll, and then it happened. A series of bizarre events.
I have to say that this film is perfect in my opinion. There are a lot of foreshadowings in this film, and at the end everything that I don’t understand suddenly becomes clear, so I will first talk about the foreshadowing I see:
First, The second is to clean up the mice regularly
, the third is the agreement
, the heroine is dreaming that a hand is stretched out of the wall.
Fourth, the heroine knocks on the wall in order to confirm to the grocery store owner that the doll is alive.
Fifth, the old couple's Death
is the sixth, when listening to music and reading to the doll, the voice must be loud
. Seventh, the heroine said to the doll that he begged him to drive away his ex-boyfriend
. Eighth, the adult suit in the attic is the
ninth. , the sudden disappearance of the doll
tenth, the wall that the heroine jumped into when she panicked to avoid Brahms
These are the foreshadowings I see, so let me answer them one by one, first of all, the mouse, the hand outstretched from the wall, Tap the wall, the music must be loud. All of these point out the strangeness of the wall without exception, that is, there is a person living in the wall.
Kill Rats: Prevent rats from getting into walls and biting Brahms.
The outstretched hand: implying that someone in the wall is
knocking on the wall: the sound made, yes there is a hollow inside The
music is louder: obviously for Brahms in the wall.
When the heroine did not abide by the agreement, the doll moved, and when the heroine told the doll to drive away her ex-boyfriend, the heroine fled into the dark pavilion. I boldly assumed that there were not only people living in the wall, but also that it was in all directions, and there might be dark cabinets everywhere for Brahms to get in and out.
Then, the death of the old couple reflects their inability to bear, and what they bear slowly emerges in the progress of the plot: the son kills his playmate, and a mere child can smash the head of his peers of fear, worry, and condemnation of conscience. When they were slowly engulfed by the lake, I could see that they did not have a trace of fear and struggle, but an unprecedented ease, which showed their inner pain
. Clothes in the attic: adult men's clothes, obviously this A brand new dress is not from Brahms' father, but Brahms's, so why should it be put in the attic instead of Brahms's since it belongs to Brahms? I think it may be related to Brahms's. It is related to Rams' intelligence. At the end, everyone can see that the adult Brahms' intelligence has been stuck at the age of eight, wearing a mask to cover the disfigured face, and the voice is the same as that of a child. The other agreement is not only for the heroine but also for the adult Brahms.
These are what I think are the foreshadowing. Then again, who is responsible for Brahms's result? Naturally, the couple could not drag the relationship. When their child killed someone, they not only did not choose the right method, but instead, they pretended to be on fire, causing Brahms' disfigurement, and the original naive child's psychology began to become distorted. As Brahms grew up, the old couple's worries began to increase, they began to fear Brahms, and finally chose to end the absurd one with death.
Brahms, it can be seen that he is a person who lacks love. There is always a hole in his heart that anyone can fill. Unfortunately, the old couple has always been afraid of him, so it is logical that he fell in love with the heroine. What the Lord loves to eat, when he scared the heroine, he gave the heroine's love to the heroine. When the heroine begged Brahms to find a way to get rid of his ex-boyfriend, he obediently complied, and he killed the heroine. The host's ex-boyfriend injured the owner of the grocery store, but he didn't attack the hostess. Instead, he obediently listened to the hostess's words and went to bed. This movie is doomed to the Brahms story to a tragic ending. When the heroine stabbed Brahms and ran away with the person she loved, the camera turned and Brahms was in the wall where he lived. , touch and repair the broken puppet, the puppet full of cracks, alluding to Brahms, no words or expressions, some just try to repair everything that is broken, yes, Brahms Si did not come out of the broken wall to return to his real home, or stayed in the wall, which may be doomed to him forever with the darkness.

    The 3.5-star story can actually be dig deeper, such as the little girl who died inexplicably.

    Horror puppet movie, similar to the ghost doll or Annabelle movie, the first half of the plot is smooth, the overall pace is flat, the second half is the appearance of the real big devil, but unfortunately the performance is not good, the protagonist escapes after simply destroying the furniture, and the strength in the back is really lacking , the plot themes are all good, some of the plots are stupid, and the suspenseful atmosphere is well created, but it is a pity that the pace control and the thriller atmosphere are not good enough, and it is regarded as a thriller and suspense sketch.
