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].
拍得还行吧，就是觉得一会儿去了《杀人回忆》片场，一会儿去了《芳华》片场，那个说着一口甘肃？宁夏？青海？口音的刑警（看了演员的条目，原来是山西口音）故意耍横的桥段太俗套了
文艺大于悬疑，很值得细细回味的片子，bgm也很好。很难想象这是一部网大？
中规中矩的悬疑片 我都可以猜到反转
意外发现的电影竟然有意外的惊喜，和石黑一雄原著小说内容无关但形而上的哲学思辨让电影内核饱满且与书有异曲同工之妙，摄影在细节上的处理也很微妙，可惜导演双管齐下的叙事策略似乎并不太能吸引人，剧作上有些冗长包括一些情节无法自圆其说，精心挑选的时代背景也没有起到太大的作用
剧情的硬伤还是不少的，比如王队的刻画过于脸谱化，也许编剧想要塑造铁汉柔情的形象，结果呈现出来的却是喜怒无常的角色；再者就是不要老是想着zz正确，为什么非得要女女爱，难道这是高分秘诀？ 最后就是演员的表现力问题了，也许都是新演员吧，即使导演刻意用慢节奏来掩盖不足依然让人出戏。道具的问题就不多说了，一双二十多年前的舞蹈鞋居然还那么崭新？二十年后的凶手跟当年长得一模一样？
昏黄的年代感，小城文工团。男主有点帅。不过剧情交待有点乱，朝夕相处的队友怎么会分不出俩人？
我最后还是没懂林音怎么死的，严华又怎么毁容的。
除了进度缓慢的拖沓感觉其他的都不错，悬疑探案还是要有吸引人的地方。
一切都恰到好处。
絮叨，平淡，色调和气氛沉闷是唯一出彩的地方。
摄影 构图 灯光以及取景比很多院线主流电影还好 把八九十年代的氛围感营造得很好 摄影爱好者进修审美的的好素材 凶杀悬疑外衣下包裹的是一部文艺片的内核 最后居然还有反转 网上很多评论说剧情bug太多 对网大还要深抠细节的话建议就不要看了 四星给予鼓励
其他剧里的头儿是又能吼又有真本事，这里的头儿……
罪案的部分有漏洞，但是这片子罪案只是个皮，骨子里是个有点文艺的剧情片，画面挺美，氛围也到位了，打发时间可以看看。
拍的很文艺的一部悬疑片，时间很长，画面很唯美。好几个画面都如油画般油润。虽然故事节奏很慢，女主很像背伤文学的女主角，眉宇之间很忧郁但又很美。剧情的反转也不意外。救赎和自我救赎的一个故事。警队的画师有着跟《猎罪图鉴》一样细腻的心思，画的很好看。
但是对于悬疑片，感觉差了不是一点点。
简单的一个案子。。。最后的反转 浪费我两个小时
服道化还行，拍摄布光比较用心，但剧情却善可陈，依靠一个随便画像就惟妙惟肖的人推进剧情格外让人出戏
好想吐槽这电影里的警察，追查线索毫无章法，瞎找然后被骂，还要冲认真查案的主角发火，无语死了，这种警察人设在国产剧里还真不少，给我整乐了。
美术、画面、光影、色彩都挺好，年代感和山水的意境都好，文艺范儿是够了。剧情节奏缓慢，拖了悬念的后腿，案情交待得零散观感欠佳，从悬疑片角度看，不是很过瘾，从文艺片看，剧情有人命怎么都有点别扭。当然整体来说还是过得去的，6.5分是有的。
影片瑕疵的部分是女一演技确实太不对味，这个问题在其被烧伤后表现得更突出——一个经历了这么多的女人言行举止却跟少女没区别。
