On the Control of the Rhythm of Horror Movies

Rhythm is a necessary routine for horror films. It is related to the audience’s heartbeat and adrenal secretion. For a good horror film, we describe it as a roller coaster style. Obviously, this "Ultimate Internet Celebrity" does not have it. I am In the middle of the game, I felt only two words, very sleepy. For a fan who has watched nearly 200 horror movies, the male protagonist, as the promoter of the whole story, is too procrastinated to save his friends. The two are the most thrilling and exciting episodes in the play. On the contrary, in my opinion, the processing of the fragments is mediocre, like a domestic third-rate horror film. Although the foreign props are still better than the domestic ones, they still can't conceal the shortcomings of these two shit. Why shit? Because the protagonist’s behavior is to reduce his intelligence from the beginning, the director seems to be deliberately arranging a brain-disabled protagonist in order to better describe more content in the same session. In my opinion, it is not necessary at all, for example Is it necessary to chat with friends to unlock the mechanism? No, Chainsaw Cry never gave the protagonist too much reaction time, and also created the most exciting atmosphere for the audience with a fast pace. However, "Ultimate Internet Celebrity" did not do it. Decrypt the tense suspense required in the game stage. , When the hero and his partner became a group of elementary school students discussing math problems.

At the same time, in my opinion, the processing of various effects in the film is still as bad as shit, such as the clip of climbing the ventilation pipe. A clip that particularly portrays the sound effects is just abandoned. In addition, the visual elements in the plot seem to be trapped. Low-key + plasma is a misunderstanding of horror. In fact, the real horror is to make you shudder by the warm stove. Take Kubrick's "The Shining" as an example. The biggest difference between this film and "The Shining" lies in its environmental effects. In my opinion, the director should have no previous directing experience. The use of pseudo-live broadcast is a new trend in recent horror films, starting from the "Death Records" series to "0.0 MHz" or "Kunchi Rock" , There are rollovers and successes. The biggest problem with this kind of in-film element is that it is not subjective enough. When the male lead or bad guy is broadcasting live, when he can clearly feel the bloody atmosphere more subjectively, he always likes to take a surveillance camera out of the picture and cross his foot. It is very horrible and interrupted. The result of the atmosphere is that the fear of the previous scene becomes the farce of the next.

This movie cannot be said to be completely undesirable. The live broadcast traffic can be said to be the subject of the whole film to be satirized. The sensationalism of live broadcast in the Internet age and the drawbacks of double-faced life are indeed thought-provoking, but the reversal of abruptness seems to make The subject seemed pale and feeble. In the end, the manslaughter of the male lead could have ended, but he had to say that it was a performance, and that the fake act was really done. Does it make sense? If the rich man is beaten to death by the male protagonist, then the theme becomes-live broadcast is risky, don't stop messing with death, which is contrary to the original intention of the director, so he insisted on adding one without changing the previous situation. The resurrection of people in the circle said that this is a joke and meaningless, because you, the director, just reversed it at the end, adding some hints at the front to show that this is a scam? For example, the roll of money given by the old driver, the note can be hinted at the beginning, and the old driver was stabbed and lay on the ground. After the male lead chased in the door, he could give the old driver a phone call and smile. The segment that tells the insider, as well as the segment where the bad guy wants to poke the black girl's eyes, you can push the TV after the TV snowflakes, switch to the real scene, they prepare for false body injury, and even give a slapstick scene, which ends in this way The education will be more profound. but.

The male protagonist is a fool. He felt that the panic after being cheated was my reaction after watching this movie and feeling cheated for time. This movie is more suitable to watch as an unhorrible horror film. After all, the director treats the audience as a fool.
