The film opens with a narrated disclaimer over footage of an opening coffin. The narrator explains that the film's climax is so terrifying that it may kill the viewer, and reassures the audience that if they die of fright while watching the film, they will receive a free burial service, and it closes on the casket which has a card inside reading "Reserved for You."[1]
Newlyweds Jenni (Peggy Webber) and Eric (John Hudson) move into Eric's palatial country home. Jenni is Eric's second wife; his first wife Marion died when she accidentally slipped and hit her head on the edge of a decorative pond on the estate. At the home they meet Eric's friends, the Reverend Snow (Russ Conway) and his wife (Toni Johnson), as well as Mickey (Alex Nicol), the developmentally disabled gardener. Eric privately mentions to the Snows that Jenni spent time in an asylum following the sudden death of both her parents, and Mrs. Snow reveals that Jenni is very wealthy.
Jenni is disturbed both by Mickey's belief that Marion's ghost wanders the estate and by Marion's self-portrait inside the house, which Jenni believes resembles her mother. When she begins to hear unexplained screaming noises and see skulls around her house, she believes that Marion is haunting her. Though Eric speculates to Jenni that Mickey, who was a childhood friend of Marion and thus dislikes Jenni, may be behind the trickery, Jenni worries that she is going insane. Eric then suggests to remove Marion's self-portrait from the home. Eric and Jenni take the painting outside and burn it. While they clean up the remains of the painting, a skull emerges from the ashes. While Jenni panics at the sight of the skull, Eric denies that the skull is there. Jenni faints and Eric withdraws the skull and hides it, revealing that he was responsible for the trickery all along in an effort to get hold of her wealth.
Believing she has finally lost her sanity, Jenni resolves to be committed. She tells Eric that the entire property will be meticulously searched for the skull as a last resort. Before Eric can retrieve it, Mickey secretly steals the skull and brings it to the Reverend, revealing Eric's plans. That night, Eric prepares to murder Jenni and stage it as a suicide. Jenni sees Marion's ghost in Mickey's greenhouse and flees back to the house. When she enters, Eric begins throttling her. The ghost then appears and chases Eric outside and about the property; it finally corners and attacks him, drowning him in the decorative pond.
After Jenni regains consciousness, the Snows arrive. Mrs. Snow comforts a hysterical Jenni and the Reverend discovers Eric's body in the pond. Some undisclosed time later, Jenni and the Snows depart from the house. Reverend Snow declares whether or not Marion's death was an accident will remain a mystery.
电影如果在婆婆生前葬的歌声中结束，会更好。
用以治愈情绪波动和时而生出emo时刻
一部很轻松愉快的治愈电影，能让你完全静下心来看完
平淡普通的温馨日常是咋变成日版民间神话合集的？中间发生了甚么
“生活就要尽自己所能，我们都别无选择，只能尽我们所能。”
最喜欢结尾女主买了包跳起来那种轻盈的感觉。
如果是日常番就好了 但是后面扯的一大堆有点乱
很温馨治愈的一部电影，高潮部分有点太敷衍，靠两个小孩子的力量战胜了强大的妖怪，可能是想表达走出灾难带来的心理阴影，勇敢面对未来和新生活，爱，能治愈一切。还有，真的好喜欢日本动画电影和动漫中的各种妖怪呀。
虽然最后的走向还是日式温情，但当喜剧片看不算差。人呀，还是活得任性一点好啊！
电影嘛确实无法解决问题。全篇确实婆婆最可爱了。
就还行，没什么特别大的亮点没什么特别吐槽的。
画风超舒服，又非常夏天！而且，人设和剧情都没有槽点，真的很喜欢很喜欢！最后和红祟战斗的时候我在想，日本神秘的传说是需要像奶奶一样传述下来的，这是他们土地的根，是彼此共鸣齐心齐力的线索
前半段《小森林》，后半段《给桃子的信》，开篇立意很好但脚本有些乱，仅有宫内优里的配乐和三明治人客串让我眼前一亮。
最后是在干什么？妹妹张嘴说话之后变得非常讨厌起来（。
没有多少刻画灾难本体，而将重点放在心理创伤上，以（留在）家园作为手段来治愈家人的伤痛，突出家乡在人们心中无可取替的位置。
无论是谁，经历了惨痛的遭遇后都会想问为什么。也许大多数人做不到理性面对，悲伤早已将他们淹没。任何时候都要保持一颗善心。
前半部分巨搞笑，今年观感最欢乐的新片。搞笑来源却是东亚中产的共同焦虑，病不起，葬不起，住不起，结婚成本，中年失业危机，养老压力，就差教育压力没提了…
小妖怪们好有趣，细节设定挺不错的，but结尾打怪也太短了！
如果是电视剧还能接受 电影的话就有点拉垮 还有 合租绝对没有那么好！
本来天海就不显老，现场灯光一打，有时候觉得她才30+，这电影跟她的年龄一样充满虚幻感……
