After watching the four "Midnight Bells" in one go...

"The most terrifying things often don't require you to see, but guide you to think." After I watched four "Midnight Bells" in one go, I realized the meaning of this sentence.

A mysterious video tape leads to continuous deaths, involving a supernatural girl named Sadako. The horror of the Japanese is like that, quietly, through the most common items, such as a telephone, into your pores little by little, allowing the fear to slowly penetrate into the bone marrow. After watching the horror of Americans, you will feel that life is really happy; but after watching the horror of the Japanese, you will feel that life is full of horrors.

Tremella is basically fine when I watch it, but I occasionally feel a chill in my heart. After watching it, the after-effects are a little serious: try to slide when passing in front of the TV; never brush your teeth or comb your hair in front of the mirror in the middle of the night; The fist must be clenched... Some experts pointed out that as long as you think about it when you are afraid, Sadako is surrounded by directors, screenwriters, cameras, machines, make-up artists, lunch boxes, etc. A lot of people. Yes, that makes sense. Thinking back carefully in the movie, everyone who was killed by Sadako was actually scared to death by himself. Why is it that the children's mouth is just a sister in white clothes, but the adults are so terrified.

The four parts of "Midnight Bells" - the first "Sadako Haunted", the second "The Fierce Bell Reappears", the third "Immortal Life", and the fourth "Zhenxiang Dabai". Personal suggestion, if you are worried that you can't bear it but you can't hold it back, you can watch the fourth part first, and after you understand Sadako's poor life experience (you may be moved to tears), then watch the others. In fact, Sadako is also a tragic figure. It turns out that she has such beautiful big eyes.

Sadako was originally a lonely and beautiful little girl. The mother died early, and the father lived in seclusion in the mountains. She was always regarded as a monster at school in Tokyo, and she was haunted by another self all her life. There is no sunshine in his eyes, only loneliness and ridicule. The tragic fate appeared thousands of times in her dreams, the friends around her died inexplicably, and even the only lover was inevitably cursed, and everyone blamed the helpless girl. In the end, he was hacked to death with a sickle by his loving father, and his body was thrown into the deserted well. That kind of loneliness, that kind of desolation, how could someone with a little emotion not shed a tear of sympathy! It's no wonder that Sadako's resentment is haunting her, she is really miserable. Everyone should understand her.

Comparing Chinese, Japanese and American ghost movies, it is not difficult to find that Chinese ghost movies are very humorous and hard not to laugh; the ghosts in American ghost movies are not scary, but their faces are dirty and disgusting, or some dirty. Water, pus, etc., is just a fear of the body; Japanese is a fear of the mind. If you haven't watched a horror movie, or haven't practiced your courage, it is not recommended to choose a Japanese movie when you watch a horror movie, because the psychological damage is too serious. Everyone can watch horror movies from other countries and become interested after practicing for a while, and then watch a little Japanese horror movie to fully understand what a psychopath is without being too frightened.

Of course, there are bound to be people who don't want, dare, or reject watching horror movies, such as Yu Chuan, Silly Girl C, and so on. Tremella feels that not watching horror movies and not eating spicy food are of the same nature, that is, life will be incomplete because of this.
