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.
剧情可能有过于放大一个人的作用，不过还是讲出了政治背后的影子。节奏不是特别紧凑，也没有之前的南山部长那么扎实，整体一般
阴谋权斗，选举说到底还是靠见不得阳光的手段。基于真实改变这几个字令人害怕
虽然没机会玩这一套 ，还是觉得惊心动魄 ，电影很好看
中间那一段智斗确实很精彩 打光很考究 影子和光明摄影师有明显的区分 被黑暗包裹久了很难走出来吧
苦涩难懂，就那么几个人就那么点事，反反复复就那些内容，实在视觉疲劳了～
亚里士多德说要致力于正义的秩序，城邦以正义为原则。柏拉图说为了正义可以不择手段去实现。柏拉图是亚里士多德的老师。双男主戏，都是为了结束独裁、实现民主的目标，但手段大相径庭，在首尾呼应的“偷鸡蛋”一事中就可以明显看到处理的方法不同，大概也是理想主义者与现实主义者的区别吧。演员都是好戏之人，“民主选举”的相互倾轧、尔虞我诈、勾心斗角也足够精彩，可惜看的是机译字幕，减一星。。。
翻译字幕太差了，影响观感，但真的不错，镜头语言还是表演，都非常出色，值得一看。
光照的越亮，阴影处便越暗。偷鸡蛋的首尾呼应是神来之笔。
四平八稳的推进，渐入佳境。人物的色彩单调了点。
曾经野心勃勃以为可以玩弄大局，实际上不过是颗棋子，随时可能会成为政治牺牲品，然后被无情丢弃，影子怎么走到阳光下呢？
就得试验、碰撞，才能找到更好的政治。定于一尊少了混乱但缺点同样也是明显的。

充满了谎言、算计、背叛的政治真让人厌恶。
特地查了一下史实，记住了严昌禄，一个从来不知道的人。另一个是大名鼎鼎的金大中，不查都知道。
浪费演员，薛没有发挥余地，即使几次演讲都很平淡，对原型有抹黑，没用真名是对的。
说实话，这个题材我真的很喜欢，竞选的黑幕，告诉你民主不过就是一场权利的游戏，正义的一方也可以用不太光彩的手段。
幕僚吧，都是在阴影里面的弄权者，李善均的声音真的是很有特色，电视剧大叔里面就发现了，不去演话剧都可惜了
正在看大秦帝国之纵横 这是张仪去了韩国嘛？
李善均演技不错，抢镜薛景求。
真的可以，用微信小程序看的低清版本，而且字幕还贼垃圾。。机翻受不了。
