What if a group chat with 5 WeChat girlfriends suddenly breaks into a friend who can't be deleted? What if the profile picture of a friend who has never been in contact for a long time keeps flashing, and keeps appearing Xiaohong 1? What if there is always a dark shadow dangling behind the friends who are videoing with you? If the friend of the video does not move, you can hear the sound of the chainsaw in her room? What if the voice from a friend's WeChat suddenly roars like a ghost? What if the printer in the room suddenly printed out a death message? "Unfriended" is just such a movie, a low-cost thriller filmed using social networking tools. Unfortunately, you can’t see WeChat, QQ, Weibo, Renren, LOFTER here. Of course, there will be no Alipay grabbing red envelopes. Foreigners don’t use this. In the movie, the online social tools used by the friends are still Skype, Facebook and Youtube. The face-to-face video chat function of Skype supports the basic visual impact of the movie. Facebook and Youtube are the basic media of online violence. A few simple social networking tools can make a simple murder story new, and it can indeed be called the best idea of the year. So, in many cases, the quality of the story itself is not important, what matters is the way the story is told. This is especially important for short videos and fledgling DV enthusiasts and young film directors. So what exactly is this "haunted" movie about? Some time ago, there was a thriller movie "It's Behind" (It Follows) format is also very fun. The theme is more serious. It is about the problem of young people’s promiscuity (sex). Only through sexual behavior can inseparable evil spirits be passed on to others. This is more like a propaganda film for the prevention and treatment of AIDS. It is a bit more popular. It’s to advise young people not to sit still all day long, just to make an appointment and have a shot. The reason why "It Behind You" is well received is because there is a kind of horror that only you can see. When we are afraid, we always hope that more people can hug you together to keep warm, but there is always such a person (ghost), only you can see him, if you don’t stay away, he will stabb you to death. "If you don't leave, I will depend on each other for life and death." It is also a terrible thing to think about. And "Remove Friends" focused attention on online violence. A group of nominal high school friends uploaded a video of an unwelcome female student drunk and shit on the party to YouTube, and a group of online mob commented. Reply to commit suicide and eat shit. The person concerned cannot bear the pressure of shame to commit suicide, and then becomes a ghost and uses Skype to get rid of them one by one. It is even more ironic that after the appearance of the last female protagonist's face video appeared, there was another swarm of suicides and shit on social networking sites. The biggest feature of the story setting of "Unfriend" is the story of one after another death in the Skype video chat room, even if the virtual world exchanges and shouts for Help, it is difficult to lend a helping hand. Perhaps many people who watched this film would think that the quality of the film source is problematic, because the video playback is not clear, and the entire scene is an online video chat room, and the camera does not even need to move. Speaking of this, the imagination of the Americans I have to admire, the DV cost of filming "Ghost Record" was 10,000 US dollars in exchange for 100 million US dollars in the box office.
