American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].
好看，最近看过的电影类最佳。
借用了石黑一雄的书名，最后模拟画像师刑警去了白银，可以拍成神探系列了。文艺风格非常独特，画面很美，逻辑基本能通，不容易了。
在今年如此荒凉贫瘠的电影市场上能够出现这样一部片子，实在令人感动。私心想打三星，可剧作实在漏洞百出，逻辑不通顺处太多，带有文艺倾向的表达中又时时透露出学生感的幼稚，就片论片，还是两星，但依然希望未来国产电影中诸如此类的“非主流叙事”影片越来越多。
故事底层核心剧情，最后一场演出，严华顶替林音，没有可信度，即使戴着面纱，毕竟文工团的姑娘们天天在一起。另，依靠各种偶遇巧合推动情节发展，人物动机错乱，主题不够聚焦，悬疑差了些，文艺也差了些。
演员服化色调运镜都很不错，故事虽然略有bug整体讲的也还不错。至少比很多院线电影甚至连分镜都莫名其妙的好太多了，值得鼓励。几个演员的舞跳的实在是有点抱歉，基本功和芳华的演员差距还是有点大，看得出来演员有努力练过型体了，但最多只是摆好了架子，谈不上是在跳舞，但毕竟不是舞者，作为演员戏还是不错
网大里面算是用心的一部了，画面质感有，光影可以，舞蹈还是挺美的。悬疑性不足，故事编排的不顺畅，有点可惜。
摄影很好，音乐太聒噪，没完没了的乱来。国产悬疑，3分鼓励一下吧！
真的很良心额 拍的很用心调色也好看，灯光置景道具都很好，故事不复杂 但是很完整。
太细腻了 太喜欢了 满星
片名、节奏、色调、人物内心戏，都非常合拍，冷静中的暴力，很有观感
有点像杀人回忆，光影效果突出的好，把芭蕾舞演员们拍的如梦似幻，但剧本不精彩，节奏也墨迹，本来能往深里讲讲美丽的幻灭的，结果浅尝辄止，就一般吧。
很多镜头很漂亮，应该说调度上也花了相当的心思，场景的制作比较考究，某些画面甚至过于精致且脱离现实，而最能突出九十年代的反而是那股糙劲，对于过往的浪漫虚化处理往往意味着记忆和情感的廉价，当然也可能是现实的严苛。
节奏有点不太适应，到后面才看懂，作为悬疑片不够刺激，作为文艺片又不够文艺，，
这片子好美好美 披着悬疑片皮的文艺片 剧情结构好像是有点问题 但是还是很好看的
被海报耽误的国产悬疑佳作 （不要把海报和名字搞得跟恐怖片一样好不好？）
接近尾声，揭开真相时，画像师喊她一声：严华，我头皮居然一阵麻。要知道，现在能让我有一丢丢悚然的电影几乎不存在。
靠后期给3🌟吧
陈默：低配周铁
美术和质感没的说，剧情和台词还能再改改。情节有些俗，台词也太书面，不像是警察和社会人说的。导演和牛逼大导一线之隔，再努努力捅破那块天花板，人就成了。
