Thanks, no woke garbage. Finally

@edgrande you kind of need to get some mental work done due to "woke" that is on your head 24/7 when reading your comments on other places.
I'm surprised that this film has a relatively low rating on Trakt. I really enjoyed the futurism, the themes of disillusionment and identity and the philosophical themes explored.

@halane 100% agree with your comment, except for a small footnote:
Replace the word Asian for independent. This is an American film, all of the main characters are also (Asian) American. However this is not a Hollywood (or directly related) production. Independent films tend to be slower, plenty of fast paced Asian films too.
And to add, it is a soul crushing film so I can understand where the relatively low rating might come from.
Confusing and boring
Don’t believe what you see in the trailer, it was very slow paced and all the “ghosts” in this movie were just all confusing. Nothing made sense and all the scary scenes were all over the place.
This movie could have had potential if it focused on the refugees doing good for the country they are staying in.
But combining this with horror just didn’t work out

@usagiwhitenight "This movie could have had potential if it focused on the refugees doing good for the country they are staying in." You've missed the point so completely it's honestly embarrassing.
Not really a comment about the movie but kind of interesting. My mother and aunt went to high school with the kid that killed his family, he was a junkie and killed them while high and looking for money. The whole supernatural element was made up by his defense lawyer in an attempt to get an insanity ruling (which failed). I grew up a few minutes away from the house in Amityville NY, and up until about two years ago you could still fully recognize it (the boathouse was dead on to the movie) but to finally put an end to drunk teenagers sneaking around their property the new owners finally did a complete tear down and rebuilt. So nothing cool happened, and nothing cool to look at on foggy nights anymore, but it is definitely a cool story from my hometown.

@enemyjay "he was a junkie and killed them while high and looking for money"
Um...I mean, I can believe going to school with him, but how do they know what was happening during the murders? They weren't there, nobody was. And all found laying in the same position, no reactions, no stirring, nobody heard gunshots. I'm not sure what happened, but I've heard about a second gunmen, which helped him get the job done, I've heard mafia hit, I've heard the supernatural side (obviously), but looking for money so he kills 6 people? (I didn't mention the high bit because being high doesn't automatically make you a murderer, that's some Reefer Madness bullhonky).
