      "Death Video" series story line finishing (spoiler)

      Background: The struggle between the demon and the exorcist (according to the second part)

      Part 1: A little girl possessed by a demon is caught by a priest and studied. The research failed, the priest was killed, and the virus spread in the building. Mistakenly thought that the puppy had the flu, took it to the hospital for diagnosis, and the virus spread to the outside world (leading to the third part). The firefighters and the female reporter went to the building together to check,...

      good movie

      The plot is very simple, but the process makes people sweat and sweat. I have never felt so terrible, and I often want to scream. . .

      The bloody scene, hissing like a dog, everyone bitten, like a mad dog, in the dark background, all of them are like zombies

      at the end, the little girl stands alone in the corridor on the roof, her eyes are empty When I was blushing and suddenly bitten like a rescuer,

      I thought of the scene of a mad dog biting a person....

      another Zombie film

      After watching REC and CLOVERFIELD consecutively, I like REC more.
      Because the plot is more compact, the shooting quality and stability are also better.

      More combined with the real situation, the situation in the REC may happen.
      For example, the recent news "A passenger died in isolation and quarantine on a Canadian train due to an unexpected illness",

      but if you have been watching a zombie movie from the beginning, this is just a very ordinary movie. How immersive...

      Anyway, I admit I was intimidated

      I watched the Cloverfield archives before, and I was well aware of the persecution of such films on the stomach, so I watched this film on an empty stomach.
      Because I haven't seen Blair the Witch, I really felt very excited when I saw the Cloverfield file, with a strong sense of presence and a strong curiosity. Let’s talk about this film, the footage is also very DV, and the other things are very vulgar (DV is actually very vulgar, but it is still very novel in my opinion), claustrophobic...

      smart zombie scare

      I got the DVD of this movie early and kept it on the shelf. Today, I accidentally read it. I saw that the film is only 75 minutes long, and it has DTS, so I turned on the power of the speakers, trying to find the feeling of being intimidated. I have always been very fond of watching horror movies because I find it exciting. But I haven't felt shivering for a long time. Maybe all the horror movies now have to be PG, maybe it's because watching horror movies every day becomes numb.
         The...

      Bloody, disgusting. Imitation DV shakes. The story is nothing new, the hostess should be the first to die, and there is a...

      It looks so cool and the ending is cool. The little brother Paul, who resisted the camera all the way, is very dedicated and has a good mental quality. In the end, he was bitten by a zombie without showing his face. I feel distressed...

    Movie plot

    Journalist Angela Vidal and cameraman Pablo prepare to produce an episode of the daily life of firefighters. While working with them and recording, they met an old woman who locked herself in an apartment. However, when they were about to rescue the old man, she suddenly opened her blood basin and bit at a policeman. It turns out that she has been infected with an unknown virus. She bites when she sees a living creature, and people who...

    Evaluation action

    From a viewing point of view, "Death Video" is much more compact than "Blair the Witch". The story unfolds quickly, without cause and effect. A little explanation is based on the eyes and ears of the characters in the play, and the length of "Death Video" is short enough. The film has a strong sense of immersion, and the camera takes the audience to the horrified building, like a panic in it. Compared with previous horror films set...

    Movie quotes

    • Ángela: Good evening, this is Angela Vidal speaking. Tonight on "While You're Asleep" we'll accompany a team of firemen on their rounds through the city. Not only that, but we'll see things never revealed: how they live, sleep, what they eat. We'll get an inside look at this fire station. Join us for "While You're Asleep".

    • Ángela: [to Pablo, before interviewing a fireman] If this is a pain in the ass, just cut, okay?

    • Álex: People think we run around, putting out fires but around 70% of the calls we get are for other types of services.

      Ángela: Like what?

      Álex: For example, broken water mains, or pet rescue too. Even though it sounds cliché, it's true.
