A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
感谢网飞，完美无瑕的戏剧配乐，星光熠熠的华丽卡司，台词、剪辑、调度拳拳到肉的酣畅体验
影片打斗场面写实，台词简单明了。值得一看！
还蛮有故事的，面孔都很深。里面居然说了句“你妈的，又捅这。”哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈，还算蛮有意思的
钱都用去知乎买软文了吧…男主那小胳膊还敢称第一刀客？软趴趴的动作➕慢动作很跨。演技也不行，逻辑也不行……真不知道知乎那群人是怎么吹得下去的。
磕着瓜子居然也看完了，因为不知道如何归类定位，所以悬念不断。王家卫的色调场景配乐，徐皓峰的实战型杀阵。主角长得像张震，于是许多角色让人想起锈春刀。不是传统意义上的武侠片，更像大西部上演的某一场村落械斗。掺杂了一些中原绿林江湖情仇，好玩的是混搭，产生混沌陌生感。
这才是真正的武侠电影，没有那么多雷人的5毛特效，没有那么多漏洞百出的逻辑错误，有的是诚意，有的是初衷！
后半段也没什么新意。
西北刀客的武侠故事。有点古龙小说的味道。作为腾讯视频独播的小制作，这种质量已经算不错了。
女儿比妈妈还老的感觉是什么样子。这个电影打斗的场景很真实，很刺激，剧情比较单一，通俗易懂。
反金庸的武侠片，林冲的故事加上武侠的皮加上西部片的背景
作为个全员籍籍无名的电影，十分有质感和态度了，情节上有点弱，但是值得给够及格鼓励
很纯粹的无侠电影，王家卫式风格，值得一看。
没有一个人在讲人话，剧情稀碎，一个小时过去了还不知道主人公到底想干啥，塑造的江湖架空，架空并不意味着失真，每个人做事都没有逻辑且非常直接，每个人都在端着。你要学王家卫就学到底，要学徐浩峰就学到底，哪怕说你抄袭日本剑戟片你也抄得真诚一点好吗？否则就是四不像、丑八怪
有徐浩峰拍的<<倭寇的痕迹>>的味道，不错
故事简明的复仇题材西部片。特点在干脆的剧情发展，没有过多铺垫不拖沓，角色潇洒随性，没有过多“啰嗦”。亮点在动作戏，各种死法有点新鲜。特别是片尾处 boss的真相告白有些意外，其实从前面他逗孩子和让捡金牙也能看出一点蛛丝马迹
笑死
今年少有得把心思都花在功夫上的功夫片，看功夫片不就是看功夫嘛？
动作戏有点徐皓峰的味道，剧情有点像林冲的故事。但人物太矛盾了吧，妻子前期想让林大为放下刀，后面又让他拿起刀，而且陆谦害他被流放十年还想杀他霸占他老婆，居然不找他报仇，反而去帮他。
感觉除了剧情与人物塑造，各个方面都挺好的，镜头感、武打场面、背景乐等等都有点意思，有模样了，可惜了。一开场以为会有《双旗镇刀客》的样子的。
小成本武侠电影能拍到这个程度真的很不错了。虽然借鉴了很多风格，有点杂糅，但是整体武侠片的气质还是完整呈现出来了。值得花时间一看。
