The fatal death chase

In 2000, a film about the death of people who deliberately created disasters to kill people, but those who did not intend to escape the disasters were killed by a series of abnormal deaths, "The God of Death" has won horror movie fans The unanimous cheers of this movie, which uses strange deaths as its selling point, won the unanimous affirmation of the audience and the media with its excellent atmosphere deployment and plot promotion. Over the past ten years, this series of popular series has been continued. Although the protagonists are different, they cannot escape the fate of being taken away by the god of death. In 2011, the latest episode of "The God of Death 5" killed the audience. Craig Perry, the producer of the new film, The Death of the whole series, said: "From the first episode in 2000 to the third in 2006 to the fifth now, "The Death is Coming" "The series has actually undergone a cycle of changes. In the past ten years, we have been exploring the development of this series in many ways. At the beginning of the third episode, we hope that the story will not be so heavy and have some positivity. , the feeling of a little sunshine, more youthful, dark humor, so in "Death Comes 3" and "Death Comes 4", we imitated the feeling of youth horror films that were very popular in the 90s, such as "American Pie", When I was making this series, I could feel what the audience was in Western Europe, and their protagonists were so similar in age, so I also added relevant elements in "The Death of the Dead". 5" is a comeback. This time we no longer have light and fun passages. The overall style is close to "Death is Coming" and "Death Is Coming 2", which is a pessimistic atmosphere full of black fatalism. The protagonist The non-stop race against death, chasing on the highway of death, is the hallmark of Reaper 5."

Although the previous film set a good box office, it was not satisfactory in evaluation. Craig Perry did not hide this, and also analyzed the film's problems in detail: "We have been adjusting the rhythm of the story, " "Death is Coming" series, each episode has some problems more or less, or something that makes us feel more regretful. Like the second episode, we should actually give the protagonist of the first episode a more powerful Because the story of the second episode happened immediately after the first episode, there are many connections between them. At the beginning, our script was also planned in the same way, but it was not implemented in the end, which is a very regrettable point. In the third and fourth episodes, we put too much emphasis on describing different ways of death, but on the contrary, we reduced its rationality and the rhythm of the story, and we did not do a good job at this point, which caused the film itself to appear unsatisfactory to the audience. The details of the problem. So after the production of "Death Come 4", I have already invested with the whole team in the preparation of the fifth episode. We hope that this time from the beginning, we will have a clear goal and solve the problems that existed in the past. I asked A lot of fans of this movie, I asked them where they were fascinated by the series, and what kind of improvements and changes they would like to make? That style, dark, wet, and breathless. So in the end I decided to shoot it this way in Reaper 5! It’s sure to please the audience.”

Steven Querrey, who directed the film, was once part of James Cameron's team, he was the assistant director of "Titanic" and "Avatar", and in 2003, he was with James Cameron. Filmed the documentary "Deep Sea Alien" together. Talking about the filming of "Death Comes 5" as his feature film debut, Steven Querrey said: "I am a loyal fan of horror movies, and my own hobby since I was a child is to collect various Horror movies, I used to scare myself to sleep when I was a kid. Later, after I got into the film industry, I watched less horror movies, but I kept paying attention, such as "The Chainsaw" and "Death is Coming", which is my special Two horror movie series I like. In the "Death is Coming" series, what I admire most is the way the film kills people. It is very charming and makes me want to stop. So when I had the opportunity to direct this film , I was very interested and immediately took over the job. I re-watched the "Death is Coming" series again, including all the interviews with the main creators, and I did a series analysis of about 4/50 pages, I want to use this information to tell the whole production team what kind of horror movie we are going to make this time, what kind of similarities it has with the "Reaper" series in the past, and what kind of changes he has made at the same time These are what we have been exploring, and what I want to embody in "Death Comes 5", that is -- fate. No one can escape fate, but you can fight against fate in other ways. The next time your opponent is the god of death, look, this will be a very

enjoyable thing for you."

In the "Death is Coming" series, the most interesting thing for the audience is that in the film, the Death adopts various scenes that accidentally cause the protagonist to die abnormally. When talking about the killing methods in "Death is Coming 5", the director Steven Querrey said: "At the beginning of making the film, the producer asked me, which murder in the whole series was my favorite? I told him frankly that I liked "Death Come 2" very much. The serial murder on the highway at the beginning. That part is very creative, and it is no longer a simple murder, but more like a disaster film that is accurate to every detail. I actually regarded this part as a disaster film, Few disaster films can be so detailed. After this scene, the subsequent stories are not too attractive to me. The roller coaster in "Death Is Coming 3" is a bit interesting, but it was a bit humorous, It's not so worrying. So in "Death Comes 5", I paid tribute to these two scenes and upgraded them. The first paragraph was changed to a suspension bridge accident, and the second paragraph was changed to a water park. Eight years ago, it has improved a lot, and more ideas that could not be taken at that time can be reflected today, so overall it is much better, especially in the presentation of the accident. I quite like the opening of "Death Comes 5", Therefore, this scene has become the focus of the final trailer, and I believe that as long as the audience sees this trailer, they must know that the "Death Is Coming" that they love is back."

The male protagonists of the "Death is Coming" series are all very sad, and they are constantly fighting against death in every episode, but they always end in failure, and the people around them can't save them, let alone themselves. In "Death Comes 5", the actor is Nick Dagosto, the young man who appeared on the big screen mostly in youth school movies, this time in "Death Comes 5" Continue to play the tragic role male protagonist. Talking about his performance in "Death Is Coming 5", Nick Dagosto said: "It's a very strange movie, and the reason I say it's strange is because when the director told me the story, he let me It's just incredible to me: how could there be so many coincidences, how could death continue to torment people in this way? When I browsed past series of "Here Comes Death", I really liked after the second installment. Half of the story: It turns out that we have a way to fight against the god of death, but unfortunately in "The God of Death 2", this kind of struggle is only short-lived. So in "The God of Death 5", the screenwriter also realized this, the story It gives people more hope, instead of too much despair like in the past. After the male protagonist I played was accidentally rescued in an accident, he began to pursue the truth, and when he learned that death had taken him and the survivors, He was very brave and started to use various means to fight against the god of death. Finally, the director gave the audience an open ending. Did the male lead succeed? Actually, I don't know... Because the director shot three endings, and I myself I liked it a lot, but in the end it's only one movie, and I hope the audience in the movie theater will recognize the ending of this episode."
