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].
apple出品 未来产品的概念拉满。开头的巧克力够老套。面对死亡 和最爱的人告别 是最大的课题 ali演技真好。以及我能一下子就听出女主伦敦口音了 笑。
人类在1996年成功克隆出了第一个哺乳动物——绵羊多莉，随后这项生物技术引发了公众的广泛关注，和对克隆人出现的担忧。
童年阴影《撕裂人》的缔造者古恩将血腥密恐等元素带到了dc!
1、WTF的高能叙事，开篇伪小队全军阵亡引出真小队，这打脸打得真叫一个爽，而且这种诡叙一直延续到最后，会玩会玩；2、有趣到极致，浪漫到极致，连血腥暴力和密集恐惧都能被治愈，化成烟花看到光。
“被人遗忘，是很痛苦的。”
我们是同一个人分饰的两个角色，新身会带着旧蜕的愿望爱着家人，尤其是孩子
开始觉得漫有新意，后面也拖沓了
一篇伦理学考试的超高分作文吧。在这种格局下，把情感处境和艰难抉择表现（表演）得相当不错。弱势也在于软科幻设定格局，不可能有《返老还童》那样的展开空间。

软科幻外壳下的关于生命的探讨，通过克隆人，男主像照镜子一般实现了生命中的最后一次自洽（男主演技不错，人物弧光很明显）。想疑问的是，既然剧情中的科技已经可以克隆人，那为什么不可以治愈本体的不治之症？
3.5 很迷影，质感也可以爆掉9成超英片，但是节奏跟笑点都比较off
从致敬巴顿将军的大国旗和快速推拉镜头开始，这种影视怀旧技法就像玛格版哈莉奎因，不知道还要消费到几时🤔
对于所谓的真相，到底要掩盖还是揭露，这真的是一个哲学命题。看完之后又想了想，或许，还是揭露才是最好的选择。毕竟大家都需要知道真相。
让生命得以延续为的是保护生者 更多的表现即将离开的人的不舍与痛苦 本该是不可代替的个体 其实他们更怕的是被人忘记
炫彩、朋克、恶趣味，DC就该放下身段，走野蛮怪咖路线，随时组队随时解散，通心粉式爽翻。
我不懂，都可以完美克隆了绝症怎么还治不好？（对不起我有点杠）
虽然通篇看上去心情很压抑，但看到男主死前交待完所有未尽事宜，死能瞑目也算是完美的人生结局。
有几个点还是蛮感动的，但总体觉得还是略平淡了点，没能深挖出一些更具思辨意义的东西。另外我个人不太喜欢的一点是，整个片子从男主的人设，他身边的一切，乃至摄影，美术，都实在有些太“完美”了。就像很多人都同样感觉到的那样，整部片子的质感就很苹果。像苹果广告里会出现的场景，lifestyle，景色………就实在有些过于干净高级。感觉不到真实，就很难共情，起码对我来说是这样。但我喜欢这个讨论“是自我还是自私”的命题，以及最后这个足够棒的结局。
开头挺有意思，一看就是花了心思了。
设计还挺巧妙的，重情绪轻讨论的片子，不深入但感受到了。
