American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].
大概就是短平快的feel good piece。看到欧阳万成居然没有很出戏，他演技还行。最喜欢的是那首歌的改编真的好好笑。
从选题到选角到message都紧扣时代脉搏；如今除了文艺片，看所有电影都有高考作文感了，pitch meeting难辞其咎；Nina的脸这么快就垮了，和ageless亚洲脸站一起看着像两辈人；有被consent版baby it’s cold outside萌到；过节的晚上看很满意，欧阳万成作为男主最满意
cute但是抱歉真的看不了jimmy o yang的吻戏lol
三星半，大團圓結局並不一定要告白擁吻，暫停在「be honest about who I am」就剛剛好。
用欧阳万成换达伦……不太行，即便是我觉得欧阳万成非常可爱，也不行……如果是约翰赵，还可以，但是约翰赵就没有反差了（。）另外欧美人到底多喜欢真爱至上……甚至让我在电影里真爱至上……差不多一点吧。
男主角出场的时候，当然知道套路，但是镜头扫到他脸上的时候，我还是发出了银铃般的笑声。这片子，开玩笑，一点也不差好嘛，我看得好高兴，很多设计编排竟然神奇的化解了那些俗套带来的感受，而且我不得不说男主对这片子是有功劳的，喜欢。
爱情圣诞电影还是应该找帅哥美女来演。故事蛮好的，也很有深度，但我真的太不满意我最爱的nina跟男主站在一起啊！亚裔帅哥那么多！
this just reminded me of the reasons why i hate mass produced streaming platform xmas/vday self-referencing rom coms
旧瓶装的亚裔新酒，再加上我对吉米欧阳的滤镜，是不错的圣诞电影！
欧阳万成就是米国人专门挖掘出来做雅洲男小丑代言人吧
不错的圣诞小鸡电影。改编版baby it’s cold outside还不错。
又是一个假装爱上了就可以忽略所有问题的故事
三十年河东三十年河西，jing yang都开始拍爱情片啦
such a cliche，达咩Netflix的电影
蛮传统的轻喜剧，最后一段致敬真爱至上点到了感动点上。
我好喜欢啊阿啊阿啊啊啊啊啊啊。这种简单快乐有点小细节的电影太容易让人肤浅地开心了
欧阳万成在《硅谷》里的形象太深入人心，很难相信他这回真是个好人。虽然他性格的确很讨喜，但是为啥岑哥不是男主，他真的好帅啊……Nina脸上胶原蛋白已经不在了……【虽然我不觉得宝贝儿外头冷是圣诞强奸神曲，但是这个版本我爱了哈哈哈哈哈
圣诞气氛营造得还不错，一边打破stereotype一边制造出更多的cliché. 看到结尾女主拿着纸板道歉只想说大可不必，love actually真是被碰大瓷了。
unrealistic，and confusing….
