At the Oscars ceremony last week, the Korean film "Parasite" took 4 awards and won the best film.
Director Feng Junhao laughed as "han" on the stage ...
This movie, which tells the story of the huge difference between two rich and poor families in South Korea, attracted huge attention in 2019.
No, there is news that HBO is already negotiating with Feng Junhao for the US drama "Parasite". It’s just that the American and Korean cultures are not the same, so I don’t know how it will be adapted.
In the past two days, Maruko accidentally discovered that the US version of "Parasite" was released in the United States at the end of last year !
Horror and suspense, the plot is simpler and more complicated. At the end, the back is covered in a cold sweat...
Do you occasionally hear strange noises from no one in your house?
Some things that are rarely used on weekdays suddenly disappear?
Feel like there are other people in the house?
Stop doubting yourself, this is all true.
Because, in the next second, it will find you!
01
A specious family tragedy
The movie "I See You" (I See You) is about the outbreak of a bizarre disappearance in a small town.
Two boys have been kidnapped and disappeared recently .
The host, Greg, an unscrupulous policeman is in charge of the child abduction case. He and his partner found the missing boy’s bicycle in the woods.
Next to it, there was a green knife inserted .
Fifteen years ago, there were 6 consecutive missing boys in the town, and 4 of them were found dead.
A green knife was also found next to the body.
These cases seem to be inextricably linked.
But the former murderer has been arrested and brought to justice, so the police suspected that the murderer was imitating the crime.
There are constant troubles at work, and there is no peace at home.
The hostess Harper was disgusted and separated by her husband because of an infidelity, and her rebellious son Connor who was in high school also hated her, and the atmosphere at home was very depressing.
Harper, a doctor, had to take tranquilizers to relieve anxiety because of guilt.
The family that seems to have fallen apart, in fact, already has uninvited guests secretly watching.
In his anger, Greg smashed the glass in the house.
So I called someone to fix it.
After the hostess returned home, she happened to be leaving by the repairman, and learned that the child had opened the door.
But just after the workers left, she found that the silverware at home was gone, so she called the company and asked for investigation and handling.
However, this is just an episode.
At the dinner table, Connor broke out suddenly and asked his mother who cheated on him and how he could treat his father like this.
He roared: You ruined our family!
You should fucking pay for it!
She didn't use any explanations, she could only let her son vent.
Before long, Greg came home, took two sleeping pills, and planned to sleep.
Somehow, he noticed that the family pet hamster ran out, and little things scurrying around, leading him all the way to the closet.
At this moment, a force suddenly closed the door of the cabinet, it was pitch black, and he was locked inside, unable to open the door.
He yelled his son's name, thinking Connor did it.
Just as he was about to collapse, Harper opened the door and told him that Connor had gone out and was not at home.
The two finally started talking after a long time, and Greg has been unable to forgive Harper for cheating.
He felt that they were wrong to marry, and he could not give his wife everything he wanted.
But Harper said she was willing, and she didn't care about her husband's rich or poor.
This seems to be just a broken family.
These slow-paced scenes, seemingly procrastinating, are actually paving the way for the truth.
In order to track down the missing children, Greg and his team found Tommy, one of the boys who had survived .
It was discovered that he had been severely mentally disturbed, and he snarled at the crowd:
" No, no, no, no, don't come over !"
There was a terrible face under the hoodie, which he burned by himself.
The police repeatedly listened to the recording of the investigation 15 years ago.
The boy said he saw the murderer on the rails.
He took them to a magic house, which had disappeared, and they could never find him again.
At the same time, the hostess's derailed object suddenly visited.
It turned out to be her ex-boyfriend from high school.
He claimed to be sincere to her and expressed his desire to live a new life with her.
When she refused to show love from her lover, suddenly, a cup on the roof fell off and smashed the man's head.
She had to take her lover to the basement to sterilize and bandage him.
Tell him to take him to the hospital after she finishes sending her son to school.
She asked her son if he did something upstairs, and Connor looked okay.
Just when she came back after finishing all this.
Found in the basement, the man fell in a pool of blood, no breath.
She was so panicked that she had to ask her husband for help. She thought it was the man Connor killed in anger.
Greg hesitated for a moment, and drove her into the woods, burying the body.
But the darkness was far from over. When they returned home, the hostess screamed.
She found that her son was thrown into the bathtub with her hands and feet tied up, and she had lost consciousness.
A green knife was stuck beside it.
What is going on with all this?
At the urging of her husband, she didn't think much, and drove her son to the hospital quickly...
There was only Greg left in the house, as if so.
But there was another black figure wearing a mask, quietly, quietly approaching him...
They bumped into each other, there was a gunshot, bang...
02
Turns out there are no ghosts, some are just frogs
The story is endless.
This is not a robbery, but a real humanity experiment.
Yes, there are more than a host, a host, and a son in the house.
Connor’s web chat has already revealed everything:
Frog dwelling .
What is a frog guest?
It is some people who are homeless or deliberately sneak into the house while the owner is not paying attention.
Living in someone else’s house, taking advantage of no one’s home or coming out at night .
They usually choose a "good start" house, such as an American villa, one with a loft, or one with multiple guest rooms.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this may be an immoral behavior, but for the girl Mindy , it is a way of life.
She has done this more than once, staying in each house for 4-5 days, moving cautiously, and has never been discovered by the owner.
And this time, it was not only her who broke into Greg's house, but also her boyfriend , Alec .
It was Alec who asked her to take him to experience the life of the frog house, but things gradually got out of control.
Mindy and the others stole some silverware from the homeowner and hid them in the basement.
At first they lived in the guest room stiffly, and once they found someone passing by, they immediately shrank into a small cabinet.
Disguised as if there is no trace of life.
Also recorded the daily use of the frog house lens.
But her boyfriend always went downstairs blatantly and went to the roof to smoke.
In order to hide him, Mindy had to pretend to be the homeowner’s child and open the door to the repairman.
As for the person on the top of the building who broke the cup , yes, it was also Alec.
Although Mindy has repeatedly warned him to abide by the rules of the frog house and not to mess with the homeowner's life.
Alec was regarded as deaf ears.
He wore a "frog" mask and walked around without fear.
Stolen the photos on the wall of the stairs.
He even deliberately released the hamster, shutting Greg in the cabinet and collapsed with anger.
He cut the photo of the missing boy in the newspaper, riddled with holes, and it was terrifying.
More surprisingly, he secretly gave Mindy sleeping pills.
Slid out the door late at night and walked to Greg's room where he was sleeping unconsciously.
Standing on the bed, he lifted the quilt, pee pouring under him little by little.
Greg thought he was peeing his pants in the middle of the night.
It doesn't seem to make sense, Alec's strange behavior.
Does he want to be discovered too much, or just deliberately mischievous?
Mindy couldn't stand it anymore, and felt that leaving with Alec was only to retrieve the silverware in the basement.
At this moment, the mistress's lover is resting in the basement.
As soon as she found the backpack, she found a dark figure, walked behind the man, and smashed it up.
The man was out of breath, and she saw that face clearly, it turned out to be Greg.
It turned out that the husband of this family held a grudge and killed his wife's lover .
Unexpectedly, she discovered the secret of this great day. Before she could get over her, the mistress returned.
When she found the body, she asked her husband for help immediately, and Mindy was even more unable to leave.
When they were all gone, Mindy went upstairs to drag Alec to escape, only to see that he was binding Connor.
Mindy, who didn't know the truth, pushed him together, fell on the stairs and fainted.
Alec had to put Connor into the bathtub first, and then inserted a green knife.
Then he transferred Mindy to the trunk of the car, ready to take her to the doctor.
But at this moment, the Gregs came back, and they found Connor in a coma.
Greg didn't send his son off because he had more important things to do.
For example, check out his unknown secret place.
But he did not expect that a person lay in the trunk and found a pile of green knives and the missing child's clothes.
It turned out that the murderer turned out to be...?
The policeman who was betrayed by his wife and was busy investigating the disappearance case turned out to be a pedophile who had been hidden for many years .
Mindy found the two missing boys in a dilapidated RV, but they were both very bad luck.
Greg came back, and there was a "frog" lurking in the huge house.
This seems to be a duel between psychopaths, antisocial personality and pedophilia.
They scuffled into a ball, and Alec was stabbed and fell to the ground.
Greg hit himself with a backhand, creating the illusion of being stabbed.
But he didn't expect that Alec was not dead.
Greg twisted the facts and tried to blame him:
You and your friend kidnapped those boys. You threatened the detective in this case and kidnapped his son. I stopped him .
If you shoot me, you are hitting a policeman.
The sirens outside the window were getting closer, but Alec ignored his begging for mercy, the clichés of "when I was a boy".
A shot was fired and a figure fell;
Another bullet hit another person.
In the dazzling red light of the ambulance and the police car, Harper took his son back to the door.
In the dying consciousness of the person lying on the stretcher, a memory emerged:
The two boys staggered along the old railroad tracks, and a tall figure came in front of them.
The man is holding a green knife, and one of the boys’ pockets is carrying a frog ...
03
I have been watching you
Believe that when it comes to this, you also know who the survivors are.
Thought it was a bizarre story parasitic in a stranger's home, the male host found an uninvited guest at home.
Unexpectedly, after removing all the smoke bombs, the truth was a revenge that had taken several years.
The life of the frog in the lens makes the audience mistakenly think that Alec has some mental problems.
As an intruder, Mindy was involved in this accident. Some deserved it, but it was also sad.
Is the area of life for strangers really safe?
This kind of parasitic seems convenient and full of excitement. But if you walk too much at night, you will always meet ghosts.
If you are not careful, you may lose your life.
Let's talk about the entanglement between Alec and Greg.
Looking back after the truth is revealed, everything was done intentionally by him.
Taking the photos, intimidating, using the sound of the record player to hit Connor...The latter half of the time has been high-powered, in order to seduce the devil in people's hearts.
Alec was not here to "play" this time, but for revenge.
That year, the man used the identity of the policeman and his friendly face to lure him and his friends.
The weather was good that day, and they should have gone home for dinner after wandering.
But they are accompanied by endless darkness...
For unknown reasons, they escaped. Everyone said that they were Lucky boys and survived a catastrophe.
But there are no Lucky boys in the world, who knows what they have encountered in the hands of that person .
Because of the painful memory, one ruined his own face with his own hands, and the other had a withdrawn personality.
The frog toy candy that was my favorite back then is still with me today.
15 years later, finally, finally...
The truth is revealed.
But this truth is too tragic.
If he hadn't exchanged his life, perhaps people would still be kept in the dark and let the cold-blooded murderer walk in the sun in human skin.
So after reading it, I didn't feel very happy.
Just sigh, all this is finally over.
As a small-cost suspense film, he does not have ghosts and shocking special effects like the Korean "Parasite" in order to reflect social contradictions.
But only by using the lens, the panoramic top-down, freeze-frame, and first-person perspective are intertwined, full of sense of substitution.
In the second half of the plot, the plot continued to reverse, and the people looked terrifying, and they hugged the little quilt tightly.
There is also the frog mask (although it is a bit like a monkey), dull and straightforward, every time it appears, it shocks the senses, and is shocked.
Maybe it's a metaphor, I have been looking at you. I See You .
Don't think you will escape easily.
In the last ten minutes, it gave people a sense of bursting and silent, and like a thunder in the clear sky, for a long time, it split everything.
It may not be the most exciting film of 2019, but it is also considered the most rare.
