The Wardrobe is a Korean horror film released in 2020, directed by Jin Guangbin and starring Ha Jung Woo, Jin Nanji, Jin Shiya and Xu Lv. The story tells that Shang Yuan became more and more estranged from his daughter after his wife died unexpectedly. I decided to take her to the countryside to mend their relationship, but it became busy with Shangyuan's work. Ina's long-term loneliness also began to make her behave strangely until one day she mysteriously disappeared at home. Father Shang Yuan was interrogated as a prisoner, and a mysterious Man Qing Xun suddenly came to you. Pointed out the problem of the mysterious wardrobe in the room.

Affection and affection have always been the favorite theme elements in many horror movies. From James Wan's "Soul Call" universe to 20 18 "Gene Doomsday", people's impressions of thrillers are refreshed through a depressing and mysterious atmosphere, and everything revolves around the relationships and emotions among family members, not to mention the popularity and grandstanding. Wardrobe is a typical example of Korean movies, which often conveys the director's concern for society in his works.

Is the movie Wardrobe good?

I like the wardrobe at the beginning of the movie. The director first recorded an image of a witch being killed by a ghost in the closet during the exorcism. Established the overall story direction of The Wardrobe. After entering the feature film, the focus was brought back to Ha Jung Woo's father Shangyuan. Use the conversation between him and his daughter in the car to establish what seems to be the relationship between them. It not only makes the theme of the film clear, but also brings out the psychological trauma caused by the car accident six months ago step by step from their daily life interaction, adding some suspense to the wardrobe.

Undeniably, as a horror film, the wardrobe is still inseparable from the dependence on "jumping off a building". In order to scare the audience, we used the dead angle of the lens line of sight and the sound effects of various channels in the theater. Several wardrobe door switches, the characters in the movie felt that something was wrong, so they went to have a look and came back. We can not only see the excellent performance of the wardrobe in the production direction, but also clearly grasp several excellent horror films. The excellent atmosphere of the whole movie and the sudden shock have a synergistic effect. This also makes this relatively cheap and unattractive scare have an unexpected miraculous effect.

However, the wardrobe is not as scary as the ghost in the closet. I think it is the event described in the plot. After his family experienced a major crisis, Shang Yuan has been having panic attacks in recent days. Because they affect his work performance, even if he moves to the suburbs, he still has to spend a lot of time running back and forth. The wardrobe is made according to the situation of Shangyuan. Let's imagine that if we become parents, because we have no time to take care of our children, will she not be around us, become less clever and simple than before, or even disappear and run away from home? This is really worrying.

The genius of Korean film industry is that it can always integrate social issues into movies. And remind the audience of the important things that we all know but often ignore in simple and straightforward language. For example, "Extraordinary Mom" leads Korean children to get rid of kidnapping through a mother looking for missing children. Autumn of Youth encapsulates the contradiction between parents and children by comedy, while The Wardrobe is a horror film on the surface. But the core theme of the film is to explore the influence of parents' dereliction of duty and family dysfunction on children.

Can a good parent support his children? Or can you give care and accompany them to grow up together? This is exactly what director Jin Guangbin wants to ask the audience through Ina's disappearance. In addition, unlike the specific items possessed by evil spirits in The Box of Death and Annabel, The Wardrobe has the entrance of evil spirits in all wardrobes according to our childhood imagination. E is something hidden in the closet, which expands the discussion level of "wardrobe" from a single family to the whole society.

Generally speaking, the wardrobe is definitely the masterpiece of recent Korean horror movies. In addition to the director's high grasp of the sudden shock, in a story full of suspense, all the children living in the closet are missing. At the same time, it also reflects the distorted parent-child relationship in modern families, which makes the story have a deeper discussion. I think a good movie should be like this, so that the audience can get different experiences from different perspectives. This is the most interesting part of watching this movie.
