Rated 16 Aug 2020

If you expect a common horror movie, you might be disappointed. There surely are horror elements, especially in the first half of the movie, but they are not enough to satisfy horror fans' needs. However, if you are a fan of horror movies with a good story line, you will be able to enjoy it much better. If your country shares a similar history as Taiwan, even better. + The movie sometimes feels like playing a video game; you might get that feeling even if you haven't played its original game.
