This is a film where warmth and fear coexist. In the film, Cody is a coexistence of angels and demons, but the kind-hearted Cody has always wanted to get rid of demons. He would rather be an ordinary child and pursue his inner roots. real.
The beginning of the story is similar to the methods of many American horror movies. An ordinary family has set off a bloody storm because of the arrival of a child. The most similar plots are the two thrillers I have seen before, "Orphan Grudge" and "Silent Hill". , Especially the seemingly ordinary and innocent little girl in the orphan's grievance, but has a shocking secret, conspiracy, fear, and darkness are the evil claws of the immortal girl.
But the little boy in "Before Awakening" has the face of an angel, the long lashes of the wings are pitiful, and his sensible and well-behaved appearance is distressing, and he knows that once he falls asleep, there will be an abyss that will never be restored, such a small child. So he started taking functional drugs and pinched his arm to prevent the nightmare from coming.
Suddenly remembered a sentence, children who are too sensible generally don’t hurt him. In order to allow adoptive parents to see their children, he can restore his appearance in dreams, but whoever can control his dreams, boys may also become food. The devil of man erodes everything.
The first half of the film’s tone is warm, and the second half begins to fall into darkness and horror, but the horror is still within an acceptable range. The sudden screams in the film are indeed a bit shocking, but as the mother gradually accepts that her child has left After going there, he became more and more brave. Through the exploration between the orphanage and the lunatic asylum, the secret of the little boy Cody was gradually revealed.
The nightmare that Cody turned out in his heart all came from his own heart. The deep fear was actually a manifestation of his lack of love. His mother left his life early and was tossed in the adopted family, but he still couldn't get rid of the shadow of his heart. .
The concept of the film is very novel, usually using dreams to create a grotesque and fantasy world will always attract the audience.
These four words easily tell the source of dreams. Her mother suffers from insomnia. She told her lonely parents that she could see the leaving child. Some people said she was dreaming and sometimes wakes up. When you are moving, your inner subconscious will dominate your behavior, even in the daytime.
We believe that what a person sees and touches when waking up is real. Dreams are an illusion, but waking up and dreaming are two different worlds and two different phenomena. In the film, the little boy’s nightmare makes the illusion real, and when he wakes up, it is false. The concrete illusion of the fear in his heart blends into the real world, making it difficult to distinguish whether it is a dream or reality.
In short, this is a novel concept and not too horrible, because the truth, goodness and beauty are gradually melting away the children's nightmare. Of course, the ending is also very thought-provoking. I don't know if the father returned to them in the end.
Regarding this issue, let's go and watch the movie by myself. I watched it at station B. If you are too scared, you can turn on the barrage protection.
PS: I miss the days of watching thrillers with my roommates. I heard that it was not the film that frightened them, but my screams.
H ha ha, I didn’t mean it. Who would call them timid and unloved? Hee hee, I’m afraid you won’t be able to attach the link to station B. In fact, it’s not scary at all, you can see it!
