    The first part of John Carpenter's "Apocalypse" trilogy, a sci-fi horror classic comparable to "Alien". The remake of "Weirdo" produced by Howard Hawks in 1951, the 1982 version surpassed the old version in all aspects. The film is immersed in a strange and terrifying atmosphere from the beginning, and then it can make you want to divert your attention for a moment. The film is also a benchmark in film special effects...

    The sci-fi version of "The Return of the Demon"; or, the "Return of the Demon" is the fantasy version of "Mutant Type III"? The reaction of the victims was scary in terms of horror movies, and even an innocent person was not killed by mistake. If the detection station had a decent weapon, the monster might not survive one third of the...

    Love to kill this isolated werewolf killed, killing the hearts of the people in the snow scene is already awesome, amazing and scary special effects makeup, and the slime and ketchup that satisfy all evil tastes make this film reach the terrifying field of horror movies. At the height of shame, the snow sniper dog filled the sense of suspense, Russell, who had a constant IQ and was handsome and scumbag, made the movie watching experience extremely comfortable, and the mutant monsters who were...

    Although it is an alien follow-up, but the creativity and modeling are equally fascinating. Your alien image is obscured. I will announce the monster shape as soon as I come up. The best thing is that this monster can simulate any creature, and the shape is also strange. Coming out of my chest, I have teeth on my chest, and my dog’s body is blooming, invisible and tangible. This is the real...

    The movie with the most disgusting picture I've ever seen. From the point of view of today’s point of view, the techniques from the plot soundtrack to the suspense setting of photography and mirroring are not very clever. To say that the message is the McCarthyism that is universal for this kind of film. The story is also general, the characters have no character and arc at...

    Adapted from the original work of the same name in 1938, the highest masterpiece of the B-level film. 1. The chase scene of the big vision dog and the helicopter sets the suspenseful tone, and Morricone's soundtrack adds a sense of tension and despair. 2. Terror not only comes from the polar monsters, but also from the mistrust caused by unknown fears and the intrigue between humans. 3. The creativity of monster modeling is more abstract than "alien", and the silence of the two under the...

    When I was young, my brain was so good, I read the villain of the same name, and I completely remember the plot. The mistrust between people, the final despair and...

    And Alien can be described as a monster horror film Yuefu Double...

    Many of the classics in horror films are interesting. Don’t watch them while eating or drinking. It’s...

    Yes, I’m wondering if I’m learning Alien. The first half has a lot of close-to-static shots, with BGM, and the rhythm is slow. On the contrary, it makes people guess or even expect what will happen and what will come out. A weird atmosphere that mobilizes emotions and creates tension... The biggest appreciation of "Weird Shapes" should be the setting-imitating ability of weird shapes, which mobilize the audience's mind to guess who is the weird shape. The open ending extends this...
