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].
3.5。比较好看。丛生着一股优雅而又诡异的危机感。
好玩独立但一般。恐怖片还是很能凸现导演风格的，近几年这种砍杀恐怖片的景美术都差不多，架构也大多延续“电锯杀人狂”模式。能玩的出花样的就是杀人前的铺垫了，A24这个小成本玩的不是很差的原因导演占很大一头，很少有纯大俯拍、反复蒙太奇…等独特风格，观感还好，jumpscared有点多，到后来剩最后俩人的时候节奏慢了，有点特意升华性自由的主题了（这个用A片真的洗不白）结尾比较黑色幽默，很河里
技巧拙劣的虐杀电影，黄片是最大噱头，其他真没什么。
太特么可以了！我的年度最佳恐怖片！好恶心）好喜欢！构图可太棒了！！！今年能等到前传么！！！！！
全片的把控点就在于关于老年人对性的问题，些许变态但也确实。
但凡booking查下民宿的评分，也不至于把成人片拍成了恐怖片。
能看出其对于视听语言的雕琢
其中的一段镜头我愿称之为最强NTR，看着女票与专业男演员做爱做的运动，并全程拍摄下来，这就叫专业。
复古黄暴老年恐怖cult片，一锅大杂烩，片中最恐怖的是老年妇女的背后窥探和变态的需求。这也算此类片中的一个创新点，但看得颇为不适。除此之外片中再没有特别的地方。
最后一幕变态老奶奶的死法不要太刺激，哈哈哈哈
画面质感像80年代，剧情一般，血浆也不多，感觉欧美血浆片好多年没什么精品了
血浆拌福利，迷影且怀旧。女主演员身兼少女和老太二角，人设和场景的对比处理挺有意思。影片和同为纪实风格强烈的惊悚片《探访惊魂》存在多处类似：都对片中的老年人予以“妖魔化”处理，都在剧情推进过程中向观众展现了新老一代的观念代沟；两部影片在主题方面，也都表达了主创对于衰老本身的恐惧。
身强力壮的帅哥美女们竟被一对步履蹒跚，行将就木的老夫妻给灭了。
色情和暴力并不能掩盖剧情的空洞，刻意的猎奇和变态使“性与淫欲”的主题趋于肤浅。

7/10。Sex inability sometimes refers to a profound horror.
中间看的我快睡着了，讲真，作为一个恐怖片能做到这一点真不简单。
年轻的肉体真的没办法拒绝 老太太聊发少年狂。
小男孩一天到晚解构人类性行为就真的很让人疲劳。导演用猎奇的视角光明正大拍情色恐怖片，有种【哎我就是犯规我就是不要脸】的感觉。他知道观众会对什么厌恶和回避，也知道观众基于政治正确不敢把这些说出口。老年人需要sex，老年人也会想看电影吧，希望不会有倒霉老年人看到这个。三个女主角尤其是米亚高斯，确实让人垂涎，但她接这种片确实可惜。
看得太恶心了，老年人还追求毛的性生活啊？反胃。
