Poorly plotted

The reviews of Mysterious Island were unremittingly critical of its plot and shabby sets, but the film is far from the worst on offer, many of them scoring fewer than three points on Douban.

Even Xing and Zhou admit that Chinese-made horror movies lack bite because most of them try to scare the audience in unsuccessful, straightforward ways by using images of ghosts and murders, rather than clever, suspenseful plots. Audiences often mock the endings when the supernatural powers or ghosts are revealed to be imaginary or illusions dreamed up when the characters are sleeping, writing novels, drugged, or have mental health issues.

According to Fujian Heng Ye's Chen, the clumsy plots of domestic horror movies are the result of a dearth of excellent writers, a universal problem in the Chinese movie industry, although the government's ban on ghosts and superstition in plotlines can limit creativity.

Also, because some investors believe low budgets are sufficient for horror movies, few domestic productions attract more than 10 million yuan, and most only receive 3 to 6 million yuan. The lack of funding means few top-tier actors or directors work within the genre, and it's impossible for filmmakers to provide convincing visual all sound effects, Chen says.

Audience tastes have matured in the past decade, and it's becoming increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to satisfy Chinese audiences with badly produced, poorly plotted horror movies. In fact, in recent years a number of homegrown horror movies have barely recouped their costs, and some have even lost money. However, the success of The House That Never Dies is a milestone that could lead to domestic horror movies becoming exquisite, big-budget productions, Chen adds.

Cao, the Beijing resident and horror movie fan, has resolved not to see The House That Never Dies, even though his partner Lu watched it and awarded it seven out of 10: "I have no confidence in domestic horror movies, at least not at the present time."
