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.
虽然剧情上基本没有任何新意，但本片的最大亮点在于，人遭受攻击时的真实感，之前很少见，可谓精彩。
直接给分吧
虎头蛇尾，导演在中段为了杀戮场面而仿佛忘记的温迪哥怕光设定在结尾时也成为了女主的反杀契机，也使得塑造了几乎全片的温迪哥的恐怖感在那一刹那荡然无存。
影片的基调和画面我还是很欣赏的，有种美国偏远山区小镇的阴冷肃杀风，但剧情就乏善可陈了
故事就那么回事，在哪拍的景这么美，加半星，3.5
怎么会拍出这样的剧情，明知道有怪物还拿手电筒去照，一个一个送，什么脑子剧情，脑残
小男孩真可怜，可以拍部续集讲小男孩长大以后成为温迪哥猎人的故事
小孩演技好，怪物設計很酷，男人都弱雞，女人有父權陰影所以可以開掛。
这里的Wendigo弱爆了！果然精华都在预告里！人类同类相食而诞生的怪物，硬扯上原生家庭、家暴等问题……21.12.15
质感很厉害，可惜故事实在太差，改原著改的太没水平
画面干净扎实，特效镜头不多，但故事始终围绕主题，效果好。
好无聊😑。。。。怪物打女主的时候怎么那么弱？
Wendigo和男人一样。虚弱的时候都顶不住女人两三下。
破败的矿坑，阴郁的天气，灰色的迷雾，远古的大神，糟糕的剧本，愚蠢的人类，父权的没落
恐怖氛围营造的还行 剧情太垮了 看的打瞌睡
so good，二十一世纪是女权在文艺中兴起的世纪
故事中规中矩3分
平平淡淡，普普通通，场景氛围很好，剧情拖拉，导致后面与鹿角怪打斗时间不长，怪物辣鸡一下子被女主杀💩
那有怎么样？看的爽就好了。
家暴和吸毒也是病，不仅是病，还是瘾。有些时候那些人真的永远都不会好起来。
