Night is a 2021 horror film. Filmed in Iran, with the participation of the United States. For an Iranian director, this is the first horror film. She talks about a married couple with a daughter who are returning from guests. But on the way, as is customary, the car breaks down. The couple ends up at the hotel, where they run, fleeing what may be in the night. The hotel receptionist turns out to be a weirdo. He's clearly hiding something. What's going on inside the hotel? It turns out there is complete devilry. Strange sounds, creaks, sighs all around. Here you can remember such films as "13 Ghosts", "House of Nightmares" and other similar films.
In this regard, "Night" is similar to these films. Nevertheless, the good horror film "13 Ghosts" was shot back in 2001. Special effects were everywhere. It was something unimaginable. The whole film was a set of mechanisms, computer graphics. The ghosts themselves looked very ominous. No one felt safe. And the worst thing is that the viewer saw nightmarish creatures that were once people, and the characters themselves did not see anything. That only is the scene in which a live girl takes a bath.
And in it sits a dead girl with pale dead skin, cadaveric spots on her body, in decayed rags on her body. And we must add to this her unfriendly look at the living young woman who dared to disturb her. The viewer sees, but the character does not see. And this is the worst thing. I want to shout at the screen, saying that there is a ghost nearby. A good reception when the viewer sees more than the hero of the film.
The main characters of the film are Babak and Naderi. They are spouses and they have a little daughter who came with them. According to the plot, the heroes also have something to hide. Babak has terrible secrets from his family. Naderi is also aware that he is hiding something. But her things also have something that should not be. What will happen? Here you can remember the movie "The Shining" by Stephen King. That picture also told how ghosts began to visit the world of living people. But then it turned out that the head of the family was also hiding something from the family. His guilt leads to the fact that he himself becomes possessed by evil.
In the end, the main character of The Shining becomes a ghost himself, who begins to watch his family from the spirit world. As usual, a horror movie turns into a banal showdown within the family. Here everyone has their own skeleton in the closet. You have to solve family problems, against the background of ghosts trying to intimidate or even kill the main characters. Yes, the ghosts around are becoming a trifle compared to what the main characters themselves hide.
Together with the hero of the film Babak, father and husband, we will roam the dark corridors of the hotel together. The goal, of course, is to clarify the relationship with the family, to find the secret hidden by the ghosts. There are noises, rustles everywhere. The search for truth is the most important thing in the world of ghosts. And then there's the blame that lies with Babak. He must sit down with his family and discuss everything. Talk about their problems and what exactly he did. This he must tell his wife.
They have a child and they must somehow overcome all this if they want to live on. What if it was not destined? Ghosts can appear to those who have done something bad. And what is the fault of our hero. Yes, he did a lot of bad things and now fate forced him to answer for his actions. Perhaps if he and his wife had discussed everything, the ghosts would have left. But this did not happen.
So now Babak is being chased by doubles, ghosts, poltergeist. It is somewhat reminiscent of the games of the Silent Hill series, where the hero is tormented by a sense of guilt, and the ghost town embodies his fears in the form of various monsters, such as the pyramid head. This is really awful. But when the hero realized his guilt, when she stopped torturing him, the ghosts disappeared. Probably in the movie "Night" will be the same.
Other heroes include the porter. The hotel manager is the basis of the film. He comments on what is happening, draws conclusions, talks about other heroes who disappeared in this hotel "Normandy".
All in all, a very entertaining horror film. Despite the banal plot, there are many interesting things in it.
