The horror film in which viewers participate

This terrifying film, which spent five full weeks in Netflix’s Top 10 Global Movies (not in English), tells the story of a mother named Li Ronan who tries to save her daughter from a deadly curse after she gets involved in a cult.

At the beginning of the film, Viewers are asked to help Li by repeating a mysterious chant to help remove the girl’s curse: “Hou-ho-xiu-yi, si-sei-wu-ma.”

The movie went viral, in part, because of the clever trick it plays on its audience. Towards the end, it is revealed that the chant that viewers repeat as they watch the film actually has another purpose.

Actor Kao Ying-hsuan, who plays the manager of a foster home in the film, said that singing is only one meaning of Chinese saying “Good fortune follows disaster; disaster awaits good fortune.”

Art director Otto Chen said we “invented a believable religion” for the film. And they assure that none of this is real or exists.

For her part, Tsai Hsuan-yen, who plays Ronan, the protagonist, also guaranteed that no harm will be done to anyone who utters the chant.

“The whole story is fictitious, and the religion in it is also false,” Hsuan-yen said. “Everything is created by directors, screenwriters and artists. So feel free to humor me. The most important thing is that your thoughts can change the world, and good thoughts will bring good results.”

According to Hsuan-yen, the curse”it was actually extended by a mother’s love for her daughter. I think love makes you strong and also makes you crazy to do such silly things. But most importantly, if Ronan didn’t have that love for Dodo, he wouldn’t be doing such a thing.”

For the actress, despite the fear that the story arouses, in the plot “there is an infinite sense of guilt and a mother’s love for her daughter. For me, the film is actually a drama, wrapped only in horror elements.“.

Addressing fans around the world, the actress concluded: “I am very happy that we are so successful on Netflix.
