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.
人在无助的时候最容易做傻事 但是经历过之后 才能真的长大 成熟 感谢生命中出现的那些个过客 都是彼此的消遣罢了
雖然數字黑白的影像氣質始終無法跟膠片對比（同比同樣是 A24 出品的《燈塔》就是天壤之別），但好在美學風格和攝影扳回一城。柯恩嫂和女巫的表演真好。這個故事現在來看和現實的互文感強到令人頭皮發麻。
虽然充满话剧感的莎剧确实让人犯困，但绝妙的黑白光影，冷峻简洁的建筑美学和两位主演神经质的表演又令人看的心旷神怡。
现代的表演方式，风格鲜明的同时又不失与麦克白相衬的古典气息，属于旧事新说的优秀范本了。
戳爷的表演很自然，甚至让人忘了他有偶像光环。很有英气，很符合这个角色，让人很情不自禁的喜欢。他身上有着自由放纵的气息，或许也是因为这样，自己也想成为像他那样的人，把一切都看得不在乎。但无可辩驳的是，青春永远无敌。
就这个颜值和配色也很赏心悦目了哈哈，
一句话总结就是“性病这件小事”剧情各种穿插然而也只是一个很普通的故事 戳戳和渣男也没什么发糖的cp感 也就只有戳戳夏日的少年气了 原来喜欢泰勒丝真的是各个国家同性恋的底层 笑死
一部平庸的小清新同性影片，既不够生动，也谈不上深刻。
极具默片韵味又不乏视觉想象的黑白影像，原味戏剧的舞台感成了风格实验/返祖的完美道场。
无论是影片质量还是Troye的表演，都乏善可陈。情节陈旧、散漫，那种青春的躁动和脆弱，都流于表面。可能是会不自觉的和《朱诺》多比较，所以更会多几分失望。调色ok，歌不好听。
将莎翁的剧本具象化是什么样子？大概就是这个样子吧。布景的氛围、转场的过渡、调度的形态都是戏剧式的，演员的演绎自不必说，但就还是影像式的呈现。是一部极简的电影，简到与核心思想一样凝练。
有事吗？这部比刻在你心底的名字评分低？好夸张……整体逻辑自洽，中间还是有戳人的点，镜头也很好看…我觉得算是中上了吧…是不是因为AIDS题材共情少呢…（所以影评有人说男主“无情”？我无语先…）（看完后马上下单了艾滋病检测试剂…）
拍得蛮小清新的，bgm过分密集，还顺便cue了一下ts和ldgg。戳爷这个美少年也太1了吧。
抛开戳的颜来说真的挺平淡 甚至可以说是无聊的剧情
没啥必要，通篇的策略皆是惨白的邪气与呆板的装饰性，与极简的初衷背道而驰。
棚内搭景的话 Coen 和 Delbonnel 联手从视觉上只能做到表现主义黑白 接下来人物登台近景特写 场次转换相近叠化 透过风沙烟雾 身影大小映照达到性格甚至命运铺垫 动作和液滴的平行剪辑 仿佛一个房间 一个场景 一组人物 一份独白 空洞失魂的质感 之前至少七八个版本都看过的我毫无触动可言 虽然 Burwell 这次突出弹拨和重击的音效拟声配乐 目标也是营造超现实的内心氛围吧 直到 Birnam 森林的到来是窗户刮进一阵树叶 气笑了 谢谢你 p.s. 兵刃的重量以及声音塑造也轻了不少 作为一个 Soundstage 来看很廉价 论残忍凶戾有波 论外景冷暖是库 论舞台创意要数 Patrick Stewart 大科恩这回年度失望
Henry来的时候为什么caleb不能大喊一声
不用再改编麦克白了吧，《蜘蛛巢城》之后，不管后来的导演们选择什么样的风格，什么样的改编切入点，在这座大山面前，都显得没多大意思了。对于这版极简舞台剧的风格，打光是最大亮点，也是它在电影化上最成功的地方。
导演需要莎士比亚把自己作品的平均评分往下拉一拉
麦克白的故事，本质上是人的欲望被所谓“预言”无限放大或者说由预言来表现，尔后在宿命论的驱使下去实现自己的欲望，既将自己的生命寄托于命运，却又终日恐惧命运成真，最终走向疯癫。
