Asian horror movies are considered to pursue psychological horror, which is much better than European and American movies (although later the United States imitated the psychological horror they understood to shoot the alarm, But to be honest, it was really unsuccessful. Not only was they still unable to accept the idea that "ghosts are not humans", but the most important thing was that they just photographed the appearance of "psychological horror" movies without really understanding what it is. It can touch people's horror nerves.)
But Asian movies are also different.
Now it is Japanese, which is considered to be the big brother, but after watching classics like The Grudge and the Midnight Bell, it is not difficult to find that Japanese horror movies are too much foreshadowing. It’s too long. There are actually very few real horror moments. Most of them disdain the horror of the process, that is, no matter how terrible the atmosphere is, nothing will happen. Until the end, the real horrible ghost will not appear. . So watching Japanese movies, you must have the patience to the end.
Then it’s Korean. In fact, I don’t want to mention it. In Korean movies, there is not much horror. At most, it can create a little atmosphere and really complain to the curse. There are basically no super classic scenes like ghost crawling and TV in the midnight bell. There is no new idea, and the feelings of ghosts are very rich. If you don't pay attention, you will develop adult ghost love.
There are also horror movies in mainland China... .This...not to mention.. In fact, this kind of movie is very suitable for watching in the cinema, because with this powerful sound and visual effects, the unique surprises of domestic movies are quite effective. But this kind of movie has no technical content just like the bloody movies in Europe and America.
Then talk about this ghost.
Ghost is different, it belongs to the kind of horror movie that is horrible from beginning to end.
From the beginning, it quickly created an atmosphere of horror, which was indirect horror.
Then it is connected to the climax in Japanese horror movies-the direct horror from ghosts. Whether it is a ghost on the bed, in the corridor, or down the wall outside the wall, it is very shocking.
It is at this time that when we, who are used to watching Japanese movies, think that the climax is over, it shows us the real horror-psychological horror.
When the film finally revealed all the suspense, there was no hideous face, no screams, no speed of life and death, only a falling photo, and a series of replays.
The highest level of horror that makes you chill in your heart is nothing more than this.
