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].
讲道理夜神月写小说那不得写一个死一个（
黑社会题材都能拍出伟光黑 不愧是大阿美利加
浪费了饼哥风pon
好好的片子结尾却做了这么个最没意思的选择，而且让人完全不确定最后到底谁死了谁还活着。都成为都市传说的黑社会老大怎么就那么紧张那三张假钞？事实和小说家的猜测到底差多远？片名是啥意思？啥叫击退法？
假小说变成真故事，日本的刺杀小说家？开头还有点意思，后面有点不在状态，瞎了好创意。
主要缺点是没以Tony为主线，而是Dick这个在剧集里没露面的人
法米加非常有异国情调，虽然剧情我是一点都没看懂
剧情3星， 没啥不好的没啥好的，一开始的慢节奏让人有后续大反转的错觉，导致看完结尾有种“啊 原来只是这样”的感觉。多的一星献给风间！！ 风间一带眼镜不得了！！ 气质这块拿捏死了啊
The Many Saints of Newark
这个剧本有新的亮点。。。。用“现在进行时”去推敲一连串看似不相干的事件。落魄主人公小说家的第一人称+现在进行时+三枚假钞引发出一连串环环相扣的情节。一些悬疑推理想象，对于从小就看柯南，金田一或其他悬疑推理小说我倒觉得没有多大的突出亮点。唯一可以推荐的就是用 “现在进行” 的元素贯穿整个情节~~~~观影的代入感很强，太有特色了！！！
①storm: a situation in which people suddenly express very strong feelings about something that someone has said or done.
有些事你想搞懂也很难
就像吹得牛逼的不行的黑帮老大，其实也就是个流氓小头目，一共就那么几个手下，别说朝阳区了，放浦东新区也分分钟被灭了。
没看过黑道往事冒然去看这部电影简直是煎熬。不是片子的问题，是我的问题。文化差异太大不了解那段历史，只会感到又长又无聊。
来源于生活，拍得挺好，而且拍摄手法很不错，穿插回放，真实改编，所以感觉这才是事件的巧妙
其实不错，可惜我看的删减了，精彩部分没看到
和大泉洋那个错视画的电影的风格好像，连剧情的无聊程度都一模一样，和大泉洋那部电影交换一下主演都可以，藤原龙也喜欢看泡吧侦探所以自己也演了一部差不多的
故事还挺有意思的，有种当年看无头骑士的感觉。小说家比起推理剧情，更像是把所有零碎信息串起来的一根线。缺点就是留白部分太多了，导致人物行为莫名其妙的，不知道他的动机是啥
nobody understood me or no one can share my feelings with
节奏真的不行，看了两天好不容易看完了orz
