When Edward’s search for his birth family takes him and his girlfriend Ryley to a magnificent villa high in the mountains of northern Portugal, he is excited to meet his long-lost mum and twin brother. Finally, he’ll be able to find out who he is and where he comes from. But nothing is as it seems, and Edward soon discovers that he is bound to them by a monstrous secret. First foray into horror by one of the surest assets of Portuguese cinema.
After the visual delirium of “Diamantino” that won him the Critics’ Week prize at Cannes, Gabriel Abrantes surprises with a more classic horror film around the mystery of family origins, but also following the Portuguese canon of country vs. city. Carloto Cotta in a double performance, Alba Baptista and Anabela Moreira in very challenging roles.

前面悬疑还不错,结尾有点烂了,啥也没交待清
同影厅还有一堆高中生大家一起笑,就是拍成搞笑片了。
恐怖电影有点拍成搞笑电影的感觉了
拯救下恐怖片吧…
讲真电影逻辑没搞清楚,女巫不是要吃孩子才能变青春吗?但是她觊觎女主的身体,又和男主发生关系?还以为应该要吃掉男主啊不是吗?然后她那个大儿子,其实是他老公?或是长得像他老公?就感觉恐怖没在点上。想说为了美不顾一切吃小孩也没讲明白。。。
依旧是对衰老的恐惧与抵抗,但是整体处理得不如《祖母》和《X》,男主后期似乎就没什么笔墨了,葡萄牙的背景似乎也没太大的用处。
片子不吓人 但有些镜头的诡异美感还不错
D+/ 捕捉到了发梢坠落的一瞬间,也捕捉到了局部的扭曲的身体,却对面容总是保持过于克制的远观也毫无从中挖掘出陌异之内在的野心。所以看上去张牙舞爪的,但很多地方却还是很松垮,不够大胆也不够精细。不过用恐怖类型来再现美国视角下衰败却仍然神秘、怪诞的欧洲,还是蛮有意思的。
