      unit of terror

      Kunchiyan is the first horror film in my bean column, not because it impresses me or because of my preference, but because it created a precedent for a marketing horror film - this is definitely the highest expectation I have ever seen, horror A movie with the lowest index. When it was first released, everyone on Weibo said that they were scared to death by this movie, but in fact, the horror level can only scare people who have never watched horror movies. In order to commemorate this...

      "Kunchiyan" is a political film dressed in a horror film

      I've always wanted to watch interesting horror movies. Kunchiyan's large number of praises successfully whetted Ben's appetite. I was expecting a full horror story, but in the end I only saw the director's political ideas vent...

      I want to mad k those ghosts.

      It's really not scary at all, I still watched it in a private theater alone. But still so old-fashioned. The woman on the upper body was screeching a bunch, and I looked at her and wanted to hit her.

      As a horror movie lover, I just want to say, nothing new.

      Every ghost seems familiar. Anyway, if you are a horror movie lover, you must know the costumes of those ghosts.

      Although the grudge is not scary, at least Gaya has its own personality.

      Although Midnight Bell is...

      Filming angle! WHAT

      First of all, what kind of lunatic asylum did I watch? What kind of American horror season 2. Wait, for this, I want to say that I turned off the lights with my phone in my arms at night, and a group of people were dangling with flashlights and flashing lights; Eye. Then the documentary filming was disgusting, and it was a mess. Did the director fail to see everything because of the cheap investment? Charlotte and the others beat the wall? I'm not afraid at all. It's just too troublesome to...

      Unexpectedly

      "Kunyan Pond" uses a pseudo-documentary filming method. Most of this type of filming methods are used in horror films, because in this way, everyone's visual senses will be more direct and the sense of substitution will be stronger when watching the film.

      The atmosphere of this film is still very good, but it is still not enough in terms of characters, and the horror points in some places are not very full. Overall, there is nothing exciting.

      This horror film can only barely...

      Those actors are very annoying. They kept calling and it was very fake and affected the atmosphere. They just found it annoying, not scary anymore. The image design of those ghosts, including the scene, is quite good to be honest. I keep thinking about when the protagonists can die! I beg you to die soon. It's very noisy. "Encounter in the Graveyard" and "Return to the Haunted House" are much better than...

    Baum-sik Jeong believes that although the pseudo-documentary horror film initiated by "Blair the Witch" has undergone continuous exploration, it is limited to the adaptation of the theme and the form has not broken through. He hopes to be innovative and decides to adopt " The "immersion" method creates a horrible effect.

    Evaluation action

    Compared with "Travel to Busan", the film is simpler, and it is a horror film that is willing to be naive. Everything in it runs under the framework of established standards. Although the ending is a bit hasty, it still has a textbook-like layout. In addition to pure horror stimulation, the film also covers the probing of human nature  .
