It has been almost 2 years since the release of the movie "Unknown Female Corpse", but no sequel has appeared, which is really itchy.
So this movie review (guess) was born like this! Let's talk about the timeline!
The first stage:
In 1693, in New England, the United States, a young woman was persecuted for being a witch.
So staged a "Ten Tortures of the Witch".
During this time, the young woman was forced to devour mandala grass, as well as cloth with a talisman to symbolize religious ceremonies. The woman's teeth are wrapped in the cloth.
However, just a year earlier, in 1692, it was the infamous Salem witch trials! (historical facts)
The above is what was explained in the movie "Unknown Female Corpse".
As you can imagine, this is a very good access point if you shoot a prequel. Thinking of the heroine riding a wooden donkey, it is inexplicably difficult (excited) to suffer (excited)
second stage:
Time is now, location USA, Mid-Atlantic, Virginia, Grantham County. A retired couple's home.
The old couple had nothing to do, cleaned up the house at home, and hired a decorator to assist in the renovation.
While breaking ground in the basement, the woman's body was found. So the situation changed. The three of them fought and killed themselves with their own weapons.
The old lady was smeared on her neck with a knife and wanted to crawl to call the police. The old man went out for help and was shot several times. The decorator went upstairs to hide and was shot in the head by a hammer.
In other words, all three of them died in the hands of the hallucinations themselves, or were killed by flies. Revealed later!
The murder of the female corpse here is likely to require the blood of three people to restore their flesh. The same is not shown, it will be revealed later!
But here is to explain why the female corpse ran from New England to the Mid-Atlantic.
In the movie, Dad said: "Everyone who lives chooses to stay away from her (female corpse)." It is estimated that she was sent by the people who persecuted her like this.
That is, at the end of the movie, the sheriff says, "Send her out of my county!"
The third phase:
Morgue, the film itself.
To say that the biggest doubt of the movie is the discontinuity of time, the director explained the close-up of time - 9:45.
The first time was after the external judgment, the father went out to smoke to relieve his emotions, and the son was worried about the date time.
However, the time is discontinued at this time, why do you say this, because not long ago, the time was still 9:00
The blurred background can still be seen. At 9 o'clock, the father found the thread, and the son went to check and record.
Looking back, the father checked his lower body, and it was 9:45 when he took the cotton swab from his son.
It is still a blurred background, and the time has come to 9:45! wtf? 45 minutes to check a thread? This……
If I have to explain, I guess the only reason is it!
This picture is at 23:49 of the film time. Just when I was about to find a shot on the end of the thread, the fly came out and died on the ultraviolet germicidal lamp.
This time is exactly 9 o'clock, that is, starting from this weird scene, weird things happen one after another!
Time suddenly jumps, the radio is inexplicable, it's going to rain, the cat is going to die...
Let me talk about it here. In the first picture, the number below the name of the female corpse is 812657.
812657 is the product number for the Blu-ray disc of the movie "The Last Witch Hunter ". Is it an easter egg, or is it a hidden message from the director?
The movie "The Last Witch Hunter " is about the witch hunter once again defeating the reborn wizard queen. The infamous Salem witch trials are also mentioned in the film. If you don't know much about witches and want to know more, you can go and see.
We went on to say the fly, the fly is a tool of the sorcerer to create hallucinations, shake the will, attack humans, plague vectors, and more.
So this fly that appeared at 9 o'clock was a big deal.
And there is another close-up of the fly, right after the second close-up at 9:45.
Then the second time of the close-up at 9:45 will be explained below!
This close-up came after an internal cardiopulmonary examination, the cat died, and a digestive examination followed.
That is, the time slot when key clues appear, and close-ups of scalpels and flies appear continuously.
In fact, except for this close-up time, the time in other blurred backgrounds is continuous, which is generally correct.
I want to say here that if there is an unreasonable place in the blurred background, it can be understood as wearing a gang or something, but the close-up is intentionally added by the editing, that is, it has a clear purpose. What purpose, let me guess what the director wants to say!
Let's start with the inverted shot at the beginning of the movie, the shot pulled up from the peat is upside down.
Peat is the soil of the north of the United States. In the movie, the father talks about the past, combined with the words on the cloth in the stomach of the woman, the son finally thinks of the Salem witch trials in New England.
The director told us through the language of the reversed lens: "Isn't it the same as the inversion of black and white in the land (peat) at that time!"
To the second 9:45 close-up, so unreasonable! We couldn't help but ask, "Director, you made a mistake!"
Then we turn the clock over, and 9:45 becomes 3:15, which is 1515.
Coincidentally, the earliest record of the "Iron Virgin" in historical materials was on August 4, 1515.
"Iron Virgin" can completely explain the trauma on the internal organs of the female corpse!
Coincidentally, it was the time of a massive outbreak of witch hunts – in 1515, Geneva, Switzerland, burned 500 people accused of being witches at the stake. Nine years later, in Como, Italy, more than 1,000 witches were executed.
But is it just a coincidence?
The "witch hunt" that started around 1480 and lasted until 1780 has swept across Europe for almost 300 years! Bring the brutal and deformed side of human beings to the fullest! Tens of thousands of women from good families have fallen victim to this lewd and filthy trend. It's a river of blood!
Just like the simple and crude expression in the second and third close-ups after this time close-up, look at the dissection tools and the blood on the workbench!
Don't you look at the dissection tool in the second close-up, is it an dissection tool? It's a torture tool!
The workbench in the third close-up should be fine, but the camera looks too much like an evil religious ceremony!!
This is not the end. If the "witch hunt" has been 300 years, it has been more than 300 years from 1693 to the present!
As the so-called 300 years of Hedong, 300 years of Hexi. It's time for revenge!
The fourth close-up shows the fly landing on the female corpse's eyes. What does the director want to say?
You must know that the father and son are not in the room of the female corpse at this time, and the next scene is when the son opens the door and the flies fly away.
As if the witch's tool, the fly, was helping to monitor the father and son, the fly on the woman's corpse's eyes was reporting what was happening outside.
Although the female corpse lay motionless on the workbench, everything was under her control!
My son's concentration is relatively poor. The first time the flies hit the ultraviolet germicidal lamp, they had hallucinations.
My father had hallucinations when he was scratched by the rib of the female corpse. Thus, step by step, she became a sacrifice for the female corpse.
The female corpse first used the cat's death to test her father, and learned what her father cared about most. Then he used the father to be locked in the bathroom to test the father and son, and then let the father kill the son's girlfriend to disintegrate each other.
Because the above are all hallucinations, if you say that it is not enough to destroy your father, in the end, play it real, control the flames to burn the evidence, and emphasize that you can't burn me to death, you can't do anything about me, obediently sacrifice!
Finally successfully resurrected!
Some people want to ask, if the female corpse is so awesome, how could it be persecuted in the first place?
My guess is that the first proper female corpse was a woman from a good family. After being persecuted, it was buried for 300 years. The so-called religious ritual cloth that was swallowed at that time gradually changed from sacred to evil, and was deeply imprinted on the female corpse. On (it is understandable why there is a mark on the inside of the skin). So in the second stage, the rotting body in the basement of the old couple turned into thousands of flies, killed 3 people, and sacrificed their own body with their blood (it is reasonable to say that the body would have long since been buried for such a long time). In the third stage, the father and son were used to unlock the seal (when the skin was torn open by the father and son, a wave erupted to vent their emotions), and the black turned into a demon!
The above is an over-interpretation of "Unknown Female Corpse", comfort yourself, otherwise the pit is too deep!
Finally, as a digression, from the Middle Ages to the mid-sixteenth century, Europeans regarded cats as accomplices of witches and started killing cats. This decimated the number of medieval cats, almost on the verge of extinction. The cat was devastated, the rat infestation spread, and the terrible plague caused the death of more than 25 million people in Europe.
Whoever is forgiven by the heavens, the reincarnation of heaven will be rewarded, of course, I believe that the cat in the movie did not really die!
