Micron is serious

In recent years, low-budget horror movies have been very popular.

Among them, "light horror films", that is, horror comedies, are particularly noticeable.

There is no other reason. First, there are several successful cases. Second, the cost is small and it is really easy to control risks.

In addition to horror movies, as long as you don't use special effects and don't invite big-name actors (of course, you don't necessarily want to invite them), it is basically easier to control costs.

But what Xiaobian especially likes is that this kind of "light horror movie" is the gospel of the timid star like Xiaobian who dare not watch serious traditional horror movies.

If you don't believe me, watch it, whether it's "Happy Death Day" or this new light comedy horror film that I'm recommending to you today, it's all within the range that timid people can fully accept.

"ready or Not"

"ready or Not".

This story, like those small-budget thrillers before it, is a brain-opener.

30 years ago on a bloody wedding fright night, a son-in-law who stuck in the door was shot to death by an arrow, opening the secret of the wealthy family.

30 years later, the heroine Grace married Alex and held a wedding in the castle mansion. Near midnight, Grace was told to participate in a card drawing ceremony according to family tradition, and play one of the cards drawn. Games, can justifiably be regarded as a member of the card game giant family.

When Grace drew the "Hide and Seek" card, everyone's expressions became more solemn. They asked Grace to hide first. Who knows that after Grace hides, the screen turns, and each of them is assigned a weapon, from the most primitive axe to a small pistol.

Only when I saw this did I know that the family members were actually going to hunt Grace for real.

It turned out that when the card family made a fortune, they had a deal with the devil who made them fortune. They have to give the devil a sacrifice every few years at the right time to ensure that the family can be safe and prosperous, and the sacrifice must be in the Choose among the new members of the family, and this time it happened to be Grace.

So they had to sacrifice Grace before dawn, otherwise the whole family would die and the house would burn to ashes in the fire.

Although this consequence sounds ridiculous, and even some members of the family dismiss this superstition, the family has survived so cruelly over the years.

Grace also thought it was just a weird family ritual game, and was rescued by Alex just as she was about to come out. At this time, a nanny was mistakenly killed by a family member, which also made Grace realize that this was not a simple hide-and-seek.

And some people in the family don't want the hunt to happen, like new husband Alex and his older brother Daniel, who have been trying to save Grace. But there are also some people who actively participate in this killing game.

After that, Grace kept dying, and faced the threat of death several times when she hoped to be saved. During this process, she gradually turned black, and her counter-killing methods became more and more ruthless, and the people of the wealthy family chased her more and more frantically. Later, her husband Alex finally stood on the side of the family. Everyone finally caught her and was about to start, but suddenly found that it was dawn.

(There are spoilers for the ending below, you can skip it if you don't want to watch it)

However, when the curtains were opened, no one died, as if this was just an ironic superstition.

Just when the audience also thought that the film was going to satirize the family's superstition for many years and finally it was just a joke, the scene changed, and the eldest grandmother's body suddenly exploded, followed by Alex's father and sister, each A family member who really fulfilled that terrifying devil contract.

Grace, who had survived in desperation, was covered in blood. As the only survivor, she walked out of the mansion. The fire was shining behind her. The police arrived late and asked her what happened. She calmly took a cigarette: "Marry in rich."

(Spoilers end)

Overall, this film is a typical low-budget diablo-oriented thriller.

But the interesting thing about the film is that this family is a rookie in hunting, resulting in a lot of interesting plots of black humor.

For example, when they first got the weapons, they all looked majestic and arrogant, but some people actually turned around and hid in the room to watch the video teaching guide on how to use weapons.

Another example is that there are many small details added with a lot of interesting little jokes, which makes the atmosphere relaxed and relaxed, and to a certain extent makes up for the strength gap between the protagonist and the family who are chasing her. For details, you can Find out for yourself while watching the movie.

In fact, many viewers have seen this horror movie plot of hunters rounding up prey, and in the end, it often ends with the prey killing the hunters. The ending of this movie does not get rid of this routine. To the vicious in-law's family, Grace finally turned this large manor into a real tomb.

But even so, when you see the final ending, it still gives people a very cool feeling, the reason is that the strength of the two sides in this film is very different.

The hunters are the masters who know the family well, and the prey is the sweet-looking bride. The absolute strength gap brings absolute excitement to watching the movie, even if people already guessed the ending of the movie, I still want to see how a weak bride tries her best to fight with her husband's family.

However, some people think that this film is not just a simple cool film, and it's fine after watching it, but there are mixed private goods, it depends on how you understand it.

Obviously, the irony of marriage, the understanding of love, and the negative description of the so-called upper-class people in this film are viewed with some cold eyes.

Of course, since the film style is cool when you leave, don't care too much about many logical things. For example , the heroine is a weak woman, and it is obviously unreasonable to open the protagonist's plug-in in the later stage. The villain's family can't even hit a gun with a gun, and the heroine can be an AK47 with a brick, which is obviously anti-human.

But... it's still the same sentence, cool movie.

If you want to say that this film has taught girls a lesson, it should be that before getting married, let's see if his family likes to play poker. Over.
