How many times will the fantasy become reality?

Buried Oedipus' fatalism: what we fear most is what we ourselves do not know we are going to do (or have done). What we fear in the face of the abyss is not the pure unknown abyss, but the illusion or precognition that we don’t know why we want or force to jump (as shown in the movie) In other words, maybe there is no precognition in the world , only the repeated reincarnation and repeated discovery of fate.

Or, it's all fantasy, and the prediction and the confirmation of it are fantasy. In this case, another horror arises: how many times does the fantasy become reality? I shudder when I think that every repetition we realize may have been the successor of countless repetitions: the dark fantasy that overflows our dreams like a liquid, becomes reality, a reality without redemption. I gradually understood the choice of the protagonist: instead of admitting this reality, I would rather choose to live in an endless dream: at least every time I wake up with a smile and lament that it's all just a nightmare.

    Quite an early horror thriller, the story structure is simple and revolves around each person telling various weird stories in one night. The prime numbers are high and low, but they are quite interesting in series, especially the last 5 minutes, which are quite unique. It is a very thoughtful and excellent work, not bad

    The title of the film is so scary, but it should actually be called Ghost Night Ghost Talk. Constantly thinking of the manuscripts of Zaragoza
