Shortly before he is to wed, millionaire John Willis is visited by Dr. Harry S. Blair, a psychiatrist who informs him that years before he was married to Nancy, John's wife-to-be, and warns him that she is mentally unbalanced.
Blair then relates the following story: After a whirlwind romance in Florida, Blair marries Nancy and starts a psychiatric practice in New York. One day, artist Norman Clyde comes to his office and tells him that an innocent man is about to be executed in Sing Sing Prison and that Nancy is the cause of his unjust incarceration. A distraught Clyde then explains himself to a curious Blair:
Three years before, Clyde meets Nancy, whose maiden name was Monks, when she enrolls in his art class. The moody Clyde soon falls in love with Nancy's honest charm and beauty. Nancy, a secretary, introduces Clyde to her boss, millionaire Andrew Bonner, and persuades Bonner to showcase Clyde's paintings at one of his private showings. To Nancy's delight, Clyde's painting, a depiction of the tragic figure Cassandra for which she modeled, wins first prize at the showing. The evening is perfect until an expensive bracelet is stolen from a guest, and Clyde later finds it in Nancy's purse. After Clyde confronts a confused Nancy about the theft, she relates the following story to explain her behavior:
As a young girl, Nancy lives with her housekeeper mother in the lavish Willis home and plays with Karen, the Willises' little daughter. Although Karen wants to invite Nancy to her upcoming birthday party, Mrs. Willis refuses to allow the lower-class Nancy to attend. A true friend, Karen promises to give Nancy one of the pins her guests are receiving. When Karen realizes there are no extra pins, however, she offers Nancy the beautiful locket she has just received from her mother. Nancy's subsequent joy is soon crushed when Mrs. Willis demands that she return the locket. Later, the locket is discovered missing, and Nancy is accused of theft. Although Nancy's mother soon finds the locket in Karen's dress, Mrs. Willis refuses to believe Nancy and forces her to "confess."
The adult Nancy then admits to Clyde that this childhood humiliation caused her unconscious desire to steal the bracelet at the party. After a forgiving Clyde returns the bracelet anonymously, he and Nancy continue their romance until the next party at the Bonners'. Suspecting that the absent Nancy is spending the evening in Bonner's arms, Clyde leaves the party to look for her and sees her exiting Mrs. Bonner's bedroom just after two gunshots are fired. Bonner is found murdered, and Mrs. Bonner's diamond necklace, stolen. Although Nancy and Clyde are questioned, valet Myron Dexter is eventually found guilty and is sentenced to die. Clyde, however, strongly suspects Nancy, but she angrily maintains her innocence and leaves for Florida.
Back in his office, Blair defends Nancy to Clyde but invites him to his house that evening. When confronted, Nancy denies everything and tells Blair that Clyde is merely jealous. The next day, Dexter is executed, and a guilt-ridden Clyde jumps from Blair's office window to his death.
To avoid scandal, Blair and Nancy move to England, and after World War II breaks out, Blair volunteers his medical services, while Nancy becomes an ambulance driver. Expressing concern over Blair's health, Nancy insists that they take a vacation at Lord and Lady Wyndham's manor house. Just as they are leaving, Blair learns that one of Lady Wyndham's valuable jewels has been stolen. Blair suspects Nancy but is unable to prove anything until a bomb destroys their flat and reveals her cache of stolen jewels.
Although confronted directly, Nancy continues to deny any guilt and divorces Blair after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Back in John's study, Blair, like Clyde before him, tries to convince John to abandon Nancy, who now uses the name Patton. John, however, believes Nancy when she tells him that Blair is still suffering from his breakdown.
Moments before the wedding is to start, Nancy's future mother-in-law, the unsuspecting Mrs. Willis, gives her the same locket that she once took away, and tells her that it is a precious family heirloom. The locket causes Nancy to be overcome with guilt, and she collapses at the altar in hysterics. As Nancy is later taken away to an institution, John sadly realizes the truth of Blair's story, but determines to see Nancy through her crisis.
至于导演的野心：一字宇宙
这片子拍得很好，但是恶意满满。是真正的恶意，不是开玩笑，也不是过分的恶作剧。导演用了很多视听语言和心理暗示技巧去达到他的目的。所以，直觉和现实都是：恶意满满。评分为大义。同情心理脆弱会受影响的观众们，祝福你们～～～P.S.能力越大，责任越大，给所有创作者。
与三年前那部昆池岩有着相同的“强制代入感”，甚至连在非恐怖片爱好者中的讨论热度也差不多。虽然与东方民俗的结合是亮点，但无处不在的“鸡贼”还是让人不想高分，变换不定的摄像机视角以及可能是最讨人嫌的叙事诡计下的“被强制观看与参与”的结局。恐怖电影的惊吓体验不应该是让人感觉吃了个苍蝇一样的所谓“诅咒”，我想这会让这部电影在恐怖片爱好者和非恐怖片爱好者那里都无法讨好。
技術面美術跟配樂尤其出色，是真正會貼近台灣人生活且真正可怕的各種場景(陰森的廟、城市邊陲的老公寓等)，而女主角蔡亘晏演技令人驚豔，我知道類型電影甚至是如此商業的恐怖片很難有獎項會青睞，但演出真的是值得一個最佳女主角獎的等級。搭配著有點莫名其妙的八字咒語之行銷，加上電影本身的質量以及必定會病毒式擴散的口碑，今年的台片，《咒》肯定要是重要的一筆。
看得好难受，整个背景都是灰调的时候我们能做什么。有时候想要帮助某人，只是因为自己觉得那个人是好人，而现在好人不多了。对Tony被Sarah蒙着眼睛带出车，两人在旷野里围着小桌子坐下开始打牌的场景印象很深，可是还没结束Tony就被带走了。
动物园怪谈准则，不要让“它”知道你察觉了“它”的存在，影片在最初和中间也在时时告诫你，通过自身的意志决定走向，意志可以决定一切，但看到后面却还是觉得潜移默化间早已被祂影响，当结局揭晓的那一刻，感觉到还是被耍了。
正如评论里说的，你们看恐怖片难不成是图吉利吗...
网友到底是怎么好意思一边嫌弃国内恐怖烂片一边看着盗版一边又骂这电影晦气还弄上热搜的啊，真的好意思😅迷信看什么恐怖片？？
6.1 希望恐怖片导演们都放下对伪纪录片的莫名执着，不断出现的配乐请问是鬼配的吗?白瞎了这丰富的美术设计，想必从都市怪谈和民俗仪式中汲取了很多灵感。
片子还是能吸引我看完的，2个比较喜欢的地方，一个是鬼打墙，一个是利用视觉暂留让人在白色屏幕上看到那个符咒。
優：有恐怖到、觀眾互動、只花30塊
看到这条评论的人，点赞转发，今年考研考公必上岸！
后边她让我跟着念的时候，我心里不停的默念“南无阿弥陀佛”……因为怕晦气……
台式本土民俗克味儿化，顺便开创了滴滴解咒，共享掉san的新模式啊。
不要盯着那些经文看!
不得不说，当最热门的影评是“呸，晦气”时，这个恐怖片已经成功了。
不要跟着念那八个字!
拍攝手法是敗筆。其他尚好。只能說及格或良好，算不上優秀。基於真實事件改編是加分項，但把雲南某民間巫術嫁接到密宗某體系上純屬牽強附會。密宗，不管是藏密、唐密還是東密，不可能衍生出如此邪惡之法，也不可能有如此邪惡之神明。
知足吧，现在能有个这样的恐怖片看就不错了。还是有点创意的，居然直接要挟观众。现在拍恐怖片的导演越来越明白超自然的东西最不恐怖，人类的变形才最恐怖。有个恐怖谷定律，机器人越像真人就越让人不舒服，越卡通就越受人喜欢。看了《咒》就发现导演把功夫基本都用在算计身体变形的可能上了。蜂窝状皮肤病、吐蛆虫、脸上全身写咒语、面孔的毁与重塑、被诅咒后的磕血头等等…看完以后觉得不满足，就是这种变形其实做的还不够绝。真要有伽椰子那种塞进墙壁粉碎肉体咔咔咔咔爬出来才牛逼。
有点慢有点碎片化，不过要饭还嫌馊啊？有的看就不错了
