American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].
ダラダラしててちょっとテンポ悪かったかも😢
其实本来的设定和情节推进都挺好的，确实被最后的原来只是个三角恋，顿时拉低了高度。演员演技都在线的，因为看到月和L终于又共演了，怎么也得给4星。
攻壳机动队的大IP始终毁于日本人执念的3D化、以及数十年来一如既往令人作呕的「游戏化」视效，在前半部分似乎致敬经典后，故事居然又变成了讨论（特别）青少年的孤立和受霸凌此类的社会问题，可谓欺世盗名。
说实话，这个题材真的不错，就是感觉没拍好，结尾一下子down下来了，有些失望。节奏也很平，闷闷的。
平庸的乡村悬疑电影，谁才是噪音？谁又守护了谁？
从救女儿到救总统到现在做杀手，虽然年迈了，身手还是很利落，但是这电影看着总是觉的憋屈，最后被乱弹射死
怎么说呢，尼森拍来拍去，还是无法超越当初的奥斯卡辛德勒。
这么好的“闭塞岛屿题材”......剧本还是太浅了
就……前面都挺好的……黑色幽默也挺好的……以为是个社会派……结果突然烂尾了！！舍弃社会线人性线悬疑反转等各种有可能更好的收尾，写了一个最庸俗无趣的做结，不可思议！还不如来个阳光下的罪恶，今年的无花果特别甜呢……来自心灵的拷问：你们会买众所周知埋过死人的无花果吗？！继续留在岛上种果树的逻辑到底在哪？就为了让某角色成最大赢家吗？？
原以为是岛民团结全员隐瞒，看到结尾原来是相爱相杀。怎么说呢，一栋楼结构都搭好了，临收尾突然决定另起一栋。
连姆叔很多次了 这个套路 各种单枪匹马 各种救 只是这次去了墨西哥 女神贝鲁奇真的老了 美人迟暮
连姆大叔的电影里坚挺才是长青啊，结果说死就死
结局如果改成村民集体告发或隐瞒就更好了，这个题材适合表现集体主义。
这部电影再一次向我们证明澳洲的生活实在是太太太太乏味了，没有手机、没有卡拉OK、没有各色酒局饭局赌局茶局，除了回家和女友发发脾气卷2根大麻慰济一下无聊的日子，也只有和几个同样无聊的不知所措的人说些莫名其妙的对白了，怪不得早年移民澳加的哥们如今各个都哭着喊着要回国效力，还是国内的花花世界吸引人啊。
就像热门短评说的，明明是一个很好的题材，但是却把故事拍得过于平淡了。
听我一句劝，白送电影票也谨慎选择是否观看…
画面简陋且劣质，看着像20多年前的游戏过场动画一样。想找电影解说看看故事梗概还没找到。来豆瓣看看也没啥长篇的影评...
即使很rich，也逃脱不了dead的命运。主角老了。
这分完全都是给演员的，越来越喜欢藤原龙也的演技了，虽然都是小人物但是你就是无法从他身上移开眼睛，松山建一也是越来越稳重了，神木弟弟永远是青涩~喜欢
跟小女孩的感情铺垫弱了点,但是这波操作我给满分,整体悬疑性还是很给力的
