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].
有趣又生动，一波三折但最后是喜闻乐见的大团圆结局。
看得开心又心酸，此时的心境下要多加一个星。好喜欢女主。
有很搞笑的片段，基本可以猜到结局，但是情节发展却挺自然的，就觉得俗套也有趣。影片太pop，本不是男票会看的类型，难为他有耐心地陪我看了一个多小时，没有💤。
1.上層果然都坑下屬的2.沒事別當舔狗工具人悲催
看过电影看评论，发现都对男二的死大吐其糟，说明看的大多是单身🐶，因为只有单身才有时间上网看电影。而且评论很中国。
结尾说的好，我们以为我们是个石油国家，其实我们是个海洋国家，人类太贪婪了。
上：攫取资源后以两个炮弹焚烧了之，逃避责任。下：两人为爱舍身，一个回家鼓掌、一个舔到所有
灾难片而言确实不够震撼，情节也没有太过波动，要是纪录片来看应该说还行
就看看视觉吧，从中间到底救不救人时，女主演技开始泄气，为了推进剧情硬生生制造出的剧情实在是……尤其是工具人同事那段……勉强三星。
当人类为了获取能源，在地球上打井，像“瑞士奶酪上的洞”一样时，灾难就像报应，只有技能满格的一家人才能逃生～姐姐会开直升机，弟弟男主能操控得了各种设备，女友更是绝对有勇有谋有体能还有情商～能让平日懦弱的男同事在危机时刻英勇献身。最后的台词是“我们以为自己是石油国家，其实我们是海洋国家”……然后呢？只反思到这层次，换个国家到别的地方钻孔去吗！
导演是不是在脱发？对片中唯一头发完整的成年男子亚瑟安排这样的结局。
此时此刻，我在南海的一座导管架石油平台上，吹着八级风，看完了这部片，感觉良好。
奈何影片质量差点。
One of those movie night movies... I like Jenny Slate though, and Manny Magnus was great!
尽管大部分剧情显得有点俗套，但里面的情感表达还是足够真挚的，特别结尾的部分。虽然整个制作成本并没有很高，演员阵容也并不华丽，但谁能拒绝真情实感呢？
No.2418 虽然能猜到最后这俩人会在一起，但最后转折的有些不自然，在一起的理由不是那么充分
结尾说：“灾难告诉我们不是石油国家，我们是海洋国家。” 格局打开了呀，灾难片处处都可以植入斯堪的纳维亚地区精神气息与民族性格哈哈哈
cute goofiness 三人行还有很多微表情都设置得很到位 Manny Jacinto简直freaking hot
中规中矩吧，小众的灾难片类型，但是有些不够爽快，灾难场景的刻画不够丰富，另外同事牺牲的有点突然（你为啥要去呢？）
亲情和官僚主义形成了强烈反差。
