   Absolutely amazing! Everyone should watch it; it's a gem on Rotten Tomatoes. Each plot point is intricately linked, supernatural but not gory or terrifying—it's the kind of thing that gives you the creeps, a chilling feeling that lingers on your mind. The protagonist is brave, loyal, humorous, not a saint, and even a bit ruthless. He's not your typical pretty boy; he's the kind of charismatic character you can like without relying on looks. Furthermore, the other characters are all exceptionally well-developed. The story isn't about individual heroism, but about the burning spirit of the team.

    Synopsis: Ten years ago, geologist Qin Zhenbang mysteriously disappeared in the Devil City, leaving behind only a tattered diary. Ten years later, his son, Qin Feng—an outdoor guide—assembles a seven-person expedition team to venture into this Yardang landform known as the "Land of Ghostly Cries." Here, there are no ghosts or gods, only the eerie sounds of wind erosion, spiraling blue lights in the night sky, unknown tremors from deep underground, dinosaur fossils, petrified wood, meteorites, underground cavities, and prehistoric relics. As the expedition deepens, the team encounters sandstorms and quicksand traps, suspicion grows among the members, and the shadow of an internal traitor looms. While searching for the truth about his father, Qin Feng must also lead the group to survive in dire circumstances, uncovering the scientific truth behind the Devil City's millennia-old anomalies and a buried secret of a prehistoric civilization.
