The film opens with a narrated disclaimer over footage of an opening coffin. The narrator explains that the film's climax is so terrifying that it may kill the viewer, and reassures the audience that if they die of fright while watching the film, they will receive a free burial service, and it closes on the casket which has a card inside reading "Reserved for You."[1]
Newlyweds Jenni (Peggy Webber) and Eric (John Hudson) move into Eric's palatial country home. Jenni is Eric's second wife; his first wife Marion died when she accidentally slipped and hit her head on the edge of a decorative pond on the estate. At the home they meet Eric's friends, the Reverend Snow (Russ Conway) and his wife (Toni Johnson), as well as Mickey (Alex Nicol), the developmentally disabled gardener. Eric privately mentions to the Snows that Jenni spent time in an asylum following the sudden death of both her parents, and Mrs. Snow reveals that Jenni is very wealthy.
Jenni is disturbed both by Mickey's belief that Marion's ghost wanders the estate and by Marion's self-portrait inside the house, which Jenni believes resembles her mother. When she begins to hear unexplained screaming noises and see skulls around her house, she believes that Marion is haunting her. Though Eric speculates to Jenni that Mickey, who was a childhood friend of Marion and thus dislikes Jenni, may be behind the trickery, Jenni worries that she is going insane. Eric then suggests to remove Marion's self-portrait from the home. Eric and Jenni take the painting outside and burn it. While they clean up the remains of the painting, a skull emerges from the ashes. While Jenni panics at the sight of the skull, Eric denies that the skull is there. Jenni faints and Eric withdraws the skull and hides it, revealing that he was responsible for the trickery all along in an effort to get hold of her wealth.
Believing she has finally lost her sanity, Jenni resolves to be committed. She tells Eric that the entire property will be meticulously searched for the skull as a last resort. Before Eric can retrieve it, Mickey secretly steals the skull and brings it to the Reverend, revealing Eric's plans. That night, Eric prepares to murder Jenni and stage it as a suicide. Jenni sees Marion's ghost in Mickey's greenhouse and flees back to the house. When she enters, Eric begins throttling her. The ghost then appears and chases Eric outside and about the property; it finally corners and attacks him, drowning him in the decorative pond.
After Jenni regains consciousness, the Snows arrive. Mrs. Snow comforts a hysterical Jenni and the Reverend discovers Eric's body in the pond. Some undisclosed time later, Jenni and the Snows depart from the house. Reverend Snow declares whether or not Marion's death was an accident will remain a mystery.
这小成本网络电影真的是吊打大部分院线电影啊。。。拍电影现在就是太多套路少了诚意。。。
剧情很老套草率，但动作戏的拍摄确实有点东西，尤其是一些置景其实很典型是以小博大，低成本片子很好的尝试。
贵在足够真诚，对汕头的地域风情也展现得非常棒（想念小公园边上那家油粿了）
不想说打击的话，也不想昧着良心硬捧。最大感触是，好想念徐浩峰啊，不知道他的作品还能不能被看到，你是一个门派的全部未来，一个人，没有同类——想念徐浩峰的作品。
7分。以网大的水准来说，绝对算是高的了。武侠动作片近年来没什么好作品，就算电视上也都是各种假动作飘飘，本片至少还算像那么回事儿。比各部经典是不如，但压压电视剧甚至部分电影是可以了~~当然了，毕竟是网大嘛，就那么点投资，武戏OK了那文戏就没啥指望了，不过本来也没什么期待，就当爽片来看也就可以了。
3.5 瞎子的过去可以再丰满些 虽然故事线简单 但还挺好看的 人走江湖 行侠仗义 瞎子看得比谁都清
其实整体比较普通，不过最后的vlog感镜头给我触动到了，7.0/10
看了导演说的，这些素人撑起一部戏，连台词很多都是临场发挥，必须五星好评，真实接地气的生活，潮汕话的歌也好好听，边看边点了个广式外卖。
很久没有看过武侠动作片了，颇有之前大手笔古装电影的精良制作与细节。故事简单紧凑，矛盾冲突围绕“公道”展开，多线背景并行却不混乱，侠义的表现也很热血，服化道、场景、调色都十分耐看，雪景和雨景两场打戏作为一部网络电影可圈可点，过瘾！
虽然整体上剧情没有很大的起伏，甚至可以猜得出走向，但是贵在真实，场景和对话都非常日常和亲切，电影中的妈妈是全局的焦点，也是矛盾的中心，演得非常自然本色，撑起整部片，拜神时、发火时、被拍vlog、第一次坐飞机有点忐忑不适时的妈妈，都可以看到潮汕妈妈的缩影，甚至自己妈妈的影子，好多的妈妈忙碌了大半辈子，都没坐过飞机，都没出省旅游，都省吃俭用攒钱给孩子成家立业，但仍对子女怀有愧疚，这是电影里最感动我的点了
总的来说是一部挺精巧的民俗家庭轻喜剧，导演细节做的很好，那段去亲戚家送礼的情节真的太有生活了kkkk…有些细节还需再打磨下，文化差异的原因吧，潮汕地区的某些风俗在我看来不是很好接受…但尊重当地人的传统。
那么问题来了，既然这么简单的故事，既然装逼犯们这么瞧不上这部电影，那么它何以问鼎网大天花板，甚至放在电影院也肯定受大部分人欢迎，吊打70-80%同行不过分吧？那是不是说明我们市场上其他制作者，每天的工作，都在做屎？而这些装逼犯，天天都在吃屎？
功名无趣，坛酒散千金；
简单的武侠故事，经典的剧情没有加特别复杂内涵但是江湖该有的也有：一个高手瞎子在琴娘的帮助下以悬赏犯人赚赏金，一次任务因为一碗酒替含冤的酿酒女讨公道手刃真凶。画面拍得特别好，看的时候总想到王家卫的风格，如果角色声音都低沉一些可能更好，比如女主角的声音换成张曼玉那种声线会不会感觉更有内涵一些？结局琴娘去世了有点伤感，大家都在夸男主侠义心肠，却无人提明知结局仍为之的琴娘的勇敢。
虽为网络电影，但武打部分却是近年最佳之一。剧本稍显稚嫩，剧情进展也有过于潦草的地方，但许多场景质感相当精良，也可以看出剧组很用心了
下次选题材别这么老套了，多给一星支持地方电影。
简单粗暴，干净利落。剧情虽然简单，但侠的意思，表达的很精准。片尾，意犹未尽啊！如果能多些细节和曲折，就更好了！PS：对谢苗印象还是小时候那样，没想到这么多年过去了，他演得挺好的。
三加一 匠气也掩盖不了的真诚 乡镇生活细节动人 / 不过规避了重男轻女这一潮汕文化非常大的痛点 / 想把镜头伸向我妈妈
不错，配乐增色太多太多。
像是潮汕的纪录片一般的质感，非常真实和有趣。这种以潮汕婚育观点为主题搬上荧幕的并不多见，算是以小见大、管中窥豹了。人物的感情线反而显得非常单薄和无趣，最终的欢喜大结局也没意思。
