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.
把那种亲情捆绑撕破的很彻底，其实这个一直是个很敏感的问题，
我孵化了它，我现在不想要它了……但我还是会为它付出一切，包括生命，我明白它也是爱我的
比较无聊，女主最后是被寄生了吗…确实有点像遗传厄运的结尾
2022.6.**小女孩捡了个蛋孵出了邪恶的自己代替了自己
- 再来说说狗比母亲吧，在家里摸修理工人的迪克还要带女儿去他家里过夜。抹杀了孩子的童年，硬要强迫孩子做些她不想做的事。
完成度很高的惊悚家庭片。虎妈+自由出轨的一家之主妈，封闭自我甩手掌柜的爸，女儿想把妈妈的婚外情告诉爸爸，结果爸爸沉浸在自己的世界压根不打算管，好真实…妈妈失恋的模样也好真实，弟弟的心机也好真实
有点少女版黑天鹅的意思，完美主义虎妈逼疯小姑娘也逼疯了自己，怪物既是女儿的黑暗面也是妈妈，各种明喻暗喻不要太好理解，“你和你妈妈长得很像”，“它很像谭雅但不是她”，还有抚摸女儿脑袋的手法，和那黑爪子一模一样
关于身体的对抗的故事，小女孩的演技真好，据说是首次出演电影 一人分饰两角....情节其实并不恐怖，这个电影定义为科幻可能更准确。
两星给比较拉跨的剧情逻辑和人物动机，这两点实在不太行，加两星给脑洞，这不同于一般恐怖片的设定还是挺有意思的，其实本质上还是部探讨家庭关系的影片，鸟怪是女孩在恶母和懦父阴影下的黑暗面投射，有这样的家庭这女孩真是太惨了，这妈整天直播剪视频当网红走火入魔了，也是挺有现实意义的，比如现在的:抖音网红
根本不知道看了个啥玩意。能明白导演借助孵化这个形式表达变态的家庭关系，还有青春期对自我的追寻，但方法真的太奇怪了我不理解。
好奇是怎么长成人的，结局倒也合理，他们本身就是一体
小女孩和她妈妈真的蛮漂亮的，就是剧情有点无趣，唯一的看点就畸形家庭
翻了好多短评，感觉书迷买单还是蛮多的。皮皮鲁宇宙目前为止没开发的特别好，可惜了。
我已经能想象，这当妈的和鸟孩一起把小女孩埋在后院的样子了，然后给她打扮打扮继续做vlog…
反抗和脱离原生家庭带来的影响终归要伴随着血肉的挣扎和撕扯？🤔
比怪物更扭曲的是畸形的家庭关系，本质还是讲家庭，只是形式比较猎奇。另外不太喜欢小演员的演技
我很想女孩或者怪物女孩把妈妈杀了，但是不可能，两只都恋母到极致。病态的妈妈养育了病态的小孩，今后更病态的妈妈要养育更病态的怪物。
抛开电影质量不说，至少和孩子同时接受了一顿教育。
失衡的家庭分裂衍生出黑暗面，怪鸟转世孵化喂养另一个自己重建第二家庭？
国内的儿童魔幻电影仿佛停留在2000年，全剧组人员都毫无灵气，把一板一眼、中规中矩、劳民伤财体现在方方面面，看得味如嚼蜡。相比国外《潘神的迷宫》，十几年过去，精灵出现的场景仍然历历在目，心驰神往。导演还是转行去做快手吧。
