In fact, the whole plot didn’t feel particularly horrible, and the ending had a 5-minute reversal. But in fact, it’s not particularly necessary to watch the second time. As a horror movie, it’s generally far from "Master Key". "The ending of "is intriguing, and there are no details of "Small Island Cry" to experience repeatedly.
There have always been questions about whether the last eller is a doll or a real person but possessed, but according to that booklet, I want to make the most perfect doll according to the answer in the following post: The
plot introduction is
carefully from the gaze of Mary Shaw;
She has no children, only dolls;
if you see her, don't scream;
otherwise she will open your mouth and tear your tongue.
Every small town has its own ghost story--this kind of local folklore is often spread among campfire parties or children who stay in other people’s homes for the night. The theme of the story generally does not leave "something". A man who was brutally killed is still in his shadow." When these children grow up, they will share this ghost story with their children, continuing in a unique form the little secrets that only belong to this town, and the potential ghosts behind it. However, in some towns, those horrible legends are not imagined out of thin air, nor are they used to please adults and scare children. Sometimes, they all happened in real...
Ravens Fair town also has such a Legend has it that the center of the story is about Mary Shaw. The best performer of ventriloquism in the 1940s was said to have gone mad and was also accused of kidnapping and murdering a young boy because the boy accused her of being a liar. Mary Shaw was captured by angry town residents, cut off her tongue cruelly and was killed. The people in the small town buried her with her dolls, thinking that she would be quiet forever... Since then, Ravens Fair has been haunted by mysterious deaths, and those pale dolls are from Mary Shaw. Disappeared from his grave, and in the following decades, he always appeared unexpectedly in every corner of the town. As long as it is where the doll appears, someone will be killed, and the victim will have his tongue cut off just like Mary Shaw back then.
In modern times, tired of this cursed town, newlyweds Jamie and Lisa Ashe decided to leave their hometown and start a new life in a new place. However, the life they expected did not come because Lisa was killed in the apartment. Jamie decides to take his wife's body back to Ravens Fair for burial, and at the same time he wants to find out the truth about Lisa's death.
Back home, Jamie met his father Edward, who had been suffering from illness and his stepmother, the young bride Ella, who had just married in. He decided to dig out the bloody past that had been sealed in the town by himself. Solve the mystery of his wife's death. At the same time, Jamie got into trouble. He was followed by a police detective and became the biggest suspect in the murder of his wife. Jamie was surprised to discover that there was another truth hidden behind the story of Mary Shaw. He wanted to find out the story and curse behind the limericks that he had sung since he was a child, and put a stop to all the horror incidents.
Plot analysis
Regarding the deadly ending, it is generally the ending of the theater version and the hidden ending that can be seen on the Internet.
Simply put, in the ending of the theatrical version, the protagonist jamie discovers that stepmother ella is the murderer behind mary shaw. She killed jamie's father Edward and made it into a puppet, and the protagonist also yelled in horror because of learning the truth. The taboo of screaming made the curse take effect, and his tongue was cut off.
The hidden ending is roughly a straightforward account, that is, after ella married into ashen’s family, she was treated roughly by jamie’s father, ashen (jamie’s father is a man with a certain amount of domestic violence. When he went home and asked about the seriously ill-actually killed-father because of his wife's weird death, he pointed to a few oil paintings and told ella that his biological mother couldn't stand his father's rough treatment when he went downstairs. Was forced to commit suicide. The second wife also left the house for this reason. They were all erased from the oil paintings after they left.) Therefore, we can know that ella was often violently treated after she got married. She was slapped down the stairs by the old Sharn during pregnancy, resulting in a miscarriage. She suffered great physical and mental pain, so she thought of revenge. Her revenge was exploited by Mary Shaw's resentment, which led to everything. In the end, she killed jamie, put his body on the bed, and looked after him lovingly.
The above is a brief introduction, and the following is a summary. According to the time sequence of the development of the event, the ventriloquist performer Mary Shaw is a genius, of course, only in terms of puppet production and ventriloquism. One of her dreams is to make a perfect doll, and talented people often have some personalities that are different from ordinary people, such as withdrawn and weird, easy to get angry, and a bit... abnormal=.=! Her design gradually can no longer only use ordinary materials such as wood and paint. She must have begun to consider using people to make dolls and try to be perfect. A little boy (someone in the ashen family) questioned her when she was performing, and she killed him (using him as a reason for offending herself) to try to make a perfect doll, but she was retaliated by the ashen family and cut off Tongue killing, and yet, as a genius perverted ventriloquist and doll maker, she will not die instantly, but keep her grievances and the pursuit of "art" in the town, and kill the town in the name of revenge People who cut their tongues, the main focus of the murder is the ashen family, but other people sometimes kill her, regardless of whether she was involved in killing her or not, why? Because mary shaw is abnormal=.=! Anyway, killing these people can grab their voices to enrich their "art", why not do it?
Then many years passed and many people were killed. In fact, I think slowly, mary shaw also confuses revenge and making perfect puppets. Anyway, the two go together... At this time the revenge continues to Edward and Jamie, and mary shaw is about to kill. The ashen family, just at this time, ella resented Edward for having a miscarriage, and was used by Mary, causing ella to kill Edward to make a doll. Billy was dug out and sent to Jamie’s house to kill Lisa and the baby in her belly. Jamie can't escape bad luck.
Ending analysis The
above is a simple plot analysis, and the following are some details. These things are exactly what I want to discuss with my friends. I will list and write my own opinions one by one. Welcome everyone to discuss and put forward their findings. Details and personal opinions.
1. About the difference between the two endings ella.
I think in the hidden ending of the director’s cut, ella was used to avenge edward, but she still had a little bit of her own consciousness or thoughts in the end. The ability to manipulate puppets means that this is a kind of inheritance, killing edward to make a puppet, digging out billy to kill Lisa, these are all done by ella himself, of course, based on the instruction of mary shaw's soul, the relationship between ella and mary shaw is similar The relationship between master and apprentice or martial arts novels to pass on internal power. The film explains that the materialization of mary shaw relies on dolls, so when the hidden ending version, jamie burns billy, all the dolls made by mary shaw himself (This does not include the edward doll made by ella) is destroyed, mary shaw can be regarded as a part of the soul destroyed by jamie. But the part of the soul of the ability she imparted to ella still exists and merges with ella's own consciousness. At this time, ella appeared, knocked out jamie, and solved the mystery.Finally, ella placed the bodies of Lisa and Edward and took a family portrait with jamie.At this time, ella is mary shaw, and she has two personal characteristics, both There is the ability to kill him to snatch the tongue when someone else screams, and there is the maternal love of ella that merges resentment due to the child's miscarriage (this maternal love is realized on his body after killing jamie). Therefore, ella becomes another mary Shaw, an heir who came from mary but has his own memory.
In the ending of the theater version that everyone generally sees, ella itself is not used, because she is the perfect puppet made by mary shaw, that is, mary shaw made ella and asked her to marry into ashen's family for revenge. Finally, jamie was burned. When Billy, Mary Shaw was not eliminated, she just played a little trick, because one of her most proud dolls-ella was still there, when ella appeared, jamie yelled in horror, her plan was successful. In a series In his plan, he not only killed the last three generations of the ashen family (the children in the belly of edward, jamie and lisa), but also had the most perfect doll-ella. Because of the wooden painted doll (billy and more than 100 other dolls) ) Is too simple and rough, and the dolls made of corpses (the missing ashen family children and edward) cannot be long because of the decay of the corpse. Only ella is the most perfect. Regarding how ella made it in this ending, no It is clear that it is against science if mary shaw does not die anyway. Anyway, it can be understood as mary's genius design (there may be a method recorded in that notebook), and there is no difference between ella killing jamie and billy killing lisa, because they are all puppets. There are at least 2 points to see this, one is that jamie recalls the perfect doll in mary's notebook. Behind the note is a portrait of ella's head, and one is the last, in the closed photo album, these new dolls are placed In the photos (jamie, lisa, police, henry, adward and ella), it can be seen that the first 4 people have cracks in their mouths, and adward is better, but the face is pale, and ella is very beautiful, without scars, and has a complexion. The most perfect doll...
2. Why did Henry not die before and was suddenly murdered later?
This is not a perfect explanation.At present, I probably have an unformed idea, because Henry's father helped Mary (handling her corpse into an adult) and in the performance, Henry also showed awe, but Mary is evil. Yes, when Henry overturned her coffin when she was a child, she wanted to scare him to scream, and then she was stopped. Later, she didn't do anything until Henry was old. And indeed, henry’s father helped. Later, hen was killed because her plan to use henry’s voice to lure jamie into the abandoned theater was added. She needed henry’s voice, and there was another reason, probably because she wanted to punish henry. Because henry told jamie some past events, it is more likely because of marian-henry's wife! About her, I will describe in the next article.
3. Related guesses about henry's wife marian
Marian is a very mysterious character, because in the whole movie, only two people have spoken and survived in the end, one is marian, and the other is the police partner at the beginning-the policewoman. Even the pastor's speech at Lisa's funeral It should be there by example, and they are all omitted. It can only show that although these two people are supporting roles, they are definitely not ordinary. Especially marain. The policewoman is the content of the next article. Let me talk about marian. As Henry's wife, I think it is When it comes to protecting Henry, she must know something about Mary. Perhaps the subtle connection between her and Mary can be seen from the name. For so many years, perhaps because of her existence, Mary did not kill Henry. However, when Lisa At the funeral, when Jamie found Mary's back and followed up, Marian appeared and said a lot.She warned Jamie that no one would survive (in the end, it was the same, except for herself, everyone else over), precisely because of her one. The warning, annoyed Mary, just about Henry's voice, so she killed Henry to punish Marian for being too talkative. Before killing Henry, Mary also used Billy to talk to Marian to blame her. Marian said that I did nothing, but Mary said You didn't do it, but you said it! After Henry was killed, the weak Marian compromised with Mary, which is why Jamie burned the theater and then Henry's family looked for Billy. Marian lied that Billy was taken away by Jamie's father, Edward died long ago. After being made into a doll, it is impossible to come to take billy, it should be taken by ella, but marian lied to jamie, and finally got him into the trap. It can be said that Henry's death caused her to fall to mray. But why Mary doesn't kill Marian, because they have a certain relationship. Whether it is a blood relationship can not be speculated. It can only be said that their relationship is extraordinary, and Marian knows many things about Mary. Later, because Marian became crazy, she forgot , But mary still remembers, so marian can only warn jamie but can’t give more information, and mary’s conversation with her should have been before she was crazy. If there is "Dead Silence 2", it is estimated that marian will be revealed before marian is not crazy. Mystery
4. Details about the police
Let me talk about the policewoman first. The policewoman is a small character. After only a few words, we can only know that she is very capable and knows the police well. Therefore, if there is a sequel, the status of the policewoman must be greater than this one. Maybe She went to investigate the death of her partner, and went to the town of River Fair to be the theme of 2. In a plot, she did not have much effect, but there were lines and positives. You should know that, except for the mysterious marian, no one else was there. The one who is the last to survive if there is a line. So, either the actress of the policewoman is the director and screenwriter's relatives, or she will have important points in the sequel. Of course, "Dead Silence 2" will eventually appear, but also It depends on whether the investor gives money, and whether to give money or not depends on the box office and market response of 1 (of course the dead box office is not bad). There are various other factors, but at least I think that the sequel in the mind of the screenwriter exists, and The female policeman has a place.
Besides, the male policeman, he has no doubts about the performance in the plot, that is, at the beginning, as the male protagonist's investigation resistance, so that the audience is worried about the unknown danger in the front of jamie, and the suspected harassment of the ignorant police. In the development, he has no suspense to become jamie's assistant. It can be said to be a favorite. It is a pity that he died soon after becoming a positive helper. It is a pity. The only thing that puzzles me is his electric razor. It appears repeatedly in the play and there are many men. The scene of the police shaving the beard, and finally when he died, there was the razor slipping and opening the vibrating scene. I don't know whether the director uses it to imply anything other than its simple expressive meaning. I hope someone can do it. Analyzing the results^_^
In general, Silence is not comparable to movies such as Chainsaw Silent Hill, perhaps because they are thrillers, and Silence has a little horror element, and there is a difference in type. But Silence is not useless, after all, as a movie Saw series talented director James Wan’s work, his style is still reflected in death.
In addition:
Regarding whether Henry’s wife is dead~ It
can actually be seen at 2 points:
1. The old Henry heard that his wife and the puppet were in a conversation. Fearing that the puppet would kill his wife, he took the puppet into the operating room, but he heard his wife's voice from under the foundation. This is very doubtful. Isn't his wife outside? How did you get in? You can boldly guess that MARY has already taken her in. Killing and snatching his voice used to attract Henry to go.
2. Henry’s wife said that BILI was the protagonist’s father and took it. This is obviously impossible, because his father’s spine is gone. Whether he can walk is still a problem, so he said that his father took it because of this. In order to lead the protagonist to his hometown, after all, it is said that his stepmother took the protagonist's IQ and quickly guessed the problem. In addition, there are probably no people alive in this town and can't talk about others! Oh
this is my humble opinion, Henry wife would have died -
from the last period, the most critical is their stepmother, stepmother sent the little doll to attract actor back.
