Ever since there was news that the ninth film of Chainsaw was going to be filmed, I began to look forward to it. How can the screenwriter and director rejuvenate this increasingly old-fashioned classic IP? It satiated people's appetite. Until the first trailer was released, I felt a little overturned. Now, after the resources have been fully read, two big words have appeared in my head: This is it?
This is no longer a simple consumption feeling. The ninth Chainsaw Horror can be said to be completely unrelated to the first eight, and the story restarts directly. Anyway, the eighth chapter leads to the big disciple of the jigsaw. This good guy happened directly in A few years after Jigsaw's death, the disciples didn't mention it at all, and the story changed from giving life and death choices to a cliché revenge film that satirized the black police.
In fact, it is understandable that when the story is in the seventh part, it has already belonged to the dog's tail, but the screenwriter can squeeze out the remaining value of this ip and go back round. In the ninth part, I finally had to go in the other direction, but it didn't start well.
The whole film is 1 hour and 33 minutes, in which there are flashback shots, which are used to express the mental state and emotional struggle of the male protagonist with facial paralysis, the people watching are dizzy, and the stories that happened in the past are interspersed in the flashback shots, dividing the whole story into rare Broken, it's not really an advanced, storytelling method. The colorist may be in Mongolia, according to the color of the sandstorm, the overall tone is terrible yellow.
Besides, the casting, the gimmick, the director, just made a soy sauce, and there is no room for performance. Of course, such a bloody B-level film does not require any acting skills, and an hour and a half is not enough for the director to play. The male protagonist may be one of the most unsuccessful roles in the Hollywood movies I have seen in recent years. The whole acting relies on roaring. When a friend dies, his face is blank and he roars. When his boss is dead, he has a blank face. He roared; when his companion died, he roared with no expression on his face; when his father was dying, he roared with no expression on his face. If you don't say that this is a living person, you can even think that AI is acting. It can be seen that he has tried his best to become more attractive in the already stretched plot, but unfortunately, he did not succeed. Besides, the female boss is so rigid in her acting skills. If you want to say that she came to make a cameo from the P station next door, I also believe that she has an inexplicable erotic feeling. Not to mention other people, there are no five-minute shots together, and it is not worth mentioning.
This ip is mainly about organs and bloody violence. This one is also very tasteless. The props are getting more and more realistic, and the creativity is getting weaker and weaker. Only five people died in the whole film (if I remember wrong, forgive me, I quit several times in the middle of the film) send WeChat).
I still remember the first time I watched Chainsaw Horror. It was a night in an Internet cafe when I was in college. When I saw the exciting place, I covered my eyes and fast-forwarded. Now, if this ip is the same as youth, it will be sealed in the memory, and it will not lose the classics. Unfortunately, there will always be people who want to use it to make money, until the things that are photographed have no meaning at all.
I heard that this ip is going to make a series, ball and ball, let us go, okay?
