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.
年轻时只能去没有窗户的钟点房，成为大人后，找个女优都可以开一间视野开阔正对东京塔的高级房了。
内核其实蛮小的，但比花束要好，即使无病呻吟，也至少捕捉到了一丝真实
故事虽不新颖，全程几乎在意料之中，但也没有故做噱头，主要是美术配色深得我心！！结尾确实处理的不好，主角仇恨放下得太快，群众接受得太快，百年阴谋显得小儿科……
海洋版“驯龙高手”，可可爱爱bule and red！
2022.7.10 第2309人看过！在小红书上刷到过这个影片推荐！超好看好看呀！
能不成为大人就不成为了吧，反正也就是那么一生。
前面海兽登场的几场戏让人颇为震撼，但小女孩登场以后全片整个成了《驯龙高手》，说原样复制都不为过…最后小女孩看似颇有讽刺意味的一番豪言壮语，也只是点到为止的皮毛之言。
特效很好，剧情比较套路，你可以猜到结局的那种。
王室的洗脑工作做得太差了，几代人的书籍传说都抵不过小孩的几句话。能达成和平的限制条件太多了，持有武力的双方要相互信任对方的善意，广大民众也需要相信假想敌是当权者的阴谋。人类目前的能力估计是实现不了吧。
有很多亮点，令人着迷的海洋BDO做主角，古典文学式的海洋冒险（复仇、父与子等经典设定），用儿童合家欢动画讲反殖民故事，没有爱情戏，很多角色不突出性别或者是抛弃靠性别定位，非常自然地融入了种族多元化元素，海水cg做得非常逼真。也有槽点，海兽的造型和《驯龙高手》太像了，一时间感觉自己跑错片场，尾声收得一般，以及男主人公造型太油腻算吗（🤣
不能说不好看，只是剧情毫无新意，换汤不换药的好莱坞动画大片可以有点新追求吗？
可能因为先看了豆瓣点评再去看的，所以感觉比7分是要高的，完成度不错，故事情节再最后的小女孩演讲前其实也算饱满，就是最后面想不到怎么收场又用一场演讲来结束剧情的确有点审美疲劳了。
虽然我一直都蛮爱森山的但他装年轻和伊藤以及浅野叔女儿谈恋爱真的受不了，男演员也有中年危机吗。而且都网飞了为啥还如此依赖明星（他算吗）让真正的年轻人比如说可以演森山儿子的清水寻也大帅哥来演不行吗……
叙事的确很像驯龙高手，海怪的形象真的超级像里面的龙。
类似的剧情真的太多太多了。
要我说，他原本就是个普通人，非常普通。没有学历，没有能力，在流水线打工，四处找工作，普通的和女朋友约会，普通的生活。
幸亏我先看了一眼，要不然就跟孩子看了。
挺当下的电影的，我们的书我们的历史，都是谎言，说的不就是这个世界？虽然故事有些俗套，但不妨碍很流畅踏实地讲了一个很好看的故事。海上冒险的故事总是那么惊心动魄引人入胜呢。配乐精彩，小蓝萌萌哒，小红有点怪但也OK，只是小女孩设定有些粗糙过于成人和智慧了。
小孩并不幼稚，是没有利益和权力的的诱惑，反而更清醒，也不畏惧权力，敢于说真话。
那些怪兽真的好可爱！不管哪个都好可爱！岛上那只紫色的蝎子/螃蟹的口器都好可爱，牙齿看起来粗粗圆圆，抖动的时候太可爱了！我只会说可爱了，就是岛上怪兽的部分我觉得不太够看，如果有第二部，希望是Jacob和Maisie去岛上度假的快乐生活
