A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
每次去dt都会路过依托比克的cineplex，好像今年半年都挂着一个很大的这部的海报而我一直以为是个什么超英片（。倍速看就还行 成为骑士的历练
看越多的电影越明白一个道理，观影这件事，要诚实的面对自己。
先失去greatness，再失去kindness，只留下fame？ or cowardice
对于故事背景不熟悉的观众来说看这部片子真的很莫明，这条成长之路描写的如此晦涩，我还专门去查了一下骑士精神，也真是太不友好了……
很好看！ 确实比原著传说更真实，更容易理解。 当看到欺骗后的悲惨结局，宁愿带着荣誉接受死亡。这就是骑士勇气的根源？！
抽掉腰带，勇敢赴死。死亡有时候也可能是一种积极的选择。BTW，妓院里的短发女和别墅女主人是同一个人。我这个脸盲的，等电影看完才后知后觉地发现。
Was David Lowery always this pretentious or he just hid so well I never noticed?装神弄鬼，毫无意义
服化道可以。但是讲成了一个终其一生不上道的妈宝男故事……
完完全全是没看懂，就单纯喜欢大卫洛维的表达，美术、配乐等等，连节奏都很喜欢，一点儿没感觉是故弄玄虚。可见电影是个复杂的艺术形式，出路并不只有故事和角色两条。
When honor was everything. When courage made kings.
回家的旅程
额……印度人饰演的英国版西游记？这吃了红伞伞一样的迷幻让我花生豆都吃不下去了，直恶心🤢 独立电影的概念就是整体放0.5倍速吗？
这摄影和音效如果在电脑电视上看大打折扣，非常强烈的延续着导演的个人风格。关于骑士精神的五个准则，上一次感受还是在《Witcher》的DLC《blood and wine》里面。
A24又一次在生命和人生的精 神 内 核上做了一次高 逼 格的大胆 尝试和探 索。颜色，服装，超现实形式风格都是一件艺术品
场景和装束都很美，但是故事照原著诗文比有改动删减，所以容易把人看得云里雾里。我并不认同广大观众的成长观点，结合原著看的话，这片子实际讲述的，更多是一种宿命论。片子很超现实，大量的留白给了观众极多的想象空间，自然会导致评级两级分化。喜欢的人会喜欢的要死，不喜欢的人也会觉得它装X扮深沉。本片的综合素质一般，稍显沉闷，但这片难得可贵的是，在爆米花快餐模式电影横行的当下，依然坚持以骑士冒险的外衣，来了一场极有韵味的文艺旅程！就像玩了好几天啤酒轰趴后，突然品了一杯香茶一样，别有风味～愿意静下心来看一遍，也是不错的。
三星全部给光 色调 氛围感 节奏 我太喜欢迷雾和蓝绿黄的光了 巨人的出现也很棒
我没文化，必须配着知识分子写的影评才懂演了什么。有关骑士精神的暗喻是令我感兴趣的一个点。感叹一下Dev Patel资源真是不错。
完全看不懂 盎格鲁撒克逊文化下的奇幻故事完全没接触过
因为先看了看片小视频，发现精彩镜头都在小视频中，没意思，宗教性太浓
没看过原著，就电影来说，没有哪个章节的内容能让我完全入戏，知道一路是试炼，但是展现的没头没脑，直观就是：怎么回事？ 进入下一章。 唯一拍的好的地方是夜里溪流反射在绿衣骑士脸上的光
