"The Clown" 8.0
①
This group of eleven or twelve-year-old losers must not only fight against the deepest fears in their hearts, but also against the oppression and harm from the adult world. Growing up alone against the world is really a cruel story.
In terms of horror, the clown’s soul is not top-notch, Wen Ziren has long been in the front, even jumpscare has to play rhythm and tricks, but the clown’s soul is actually the same as the visual plasma monsters, so this film has been so huge. In addition to the clown culture and the huge influence of the previous work, the success of the movie probably lies in the cruel and warm youthful atmosphere.

When I was young, I also read several youth novels. Later, although I didn't watch one of the youth movies that had been popular for a while, I probably clicked on a tucao video occasionally. The cruel youth of the Chinese is nothing more than the bullying of their peers, the turmoil of the native family, academic pressure, and then the panacea for pregnancy abortion is almost over. After all, this is an era that cuts righteousness from the moral standards of young people. Moreover, what we define as youth seems to be only high school and college students. Those eighty-nine-two-year-old children can be grouped into the category of children. Their ignorant sexual awakening is already deviant, let alone the ultimate danger of losing their lives at any time.
The bottom line of Chinese youth horror films is college students, and students always seem to be a profession rather than a state, so those women who are so beautiful that they seem to be college students and whose mentality is completely adult are falling into the blood. Satisfy the gloomy desire in the heart of the spectator.
In the early years, when college students went to the sea, they could increase the price on the spot. Later, thanks to the expansion of enrollment, the client's money bag finally suffered less. I see domestic horror movies always teasing female college students, and I am afraid it is not a long-term solution.
In Hollywood youth horror films, even if there is little difference between college students and high school students due to community colleges everywhere and precocious races, it is still rare to photograph the age group of children all the way. Children are warned not to do what is righteous, just like the uncle who has a relationship with little loli in Western literary film and television works, no matter whether they are happy or wishful thinking, they will always end up with no good results. The protection of children is an important criterion of civilization. Like the 2017 version of the clown, in addition to the cannibal clown, children must also be provided with bullying and killing from mature children, indifference from passers-by, sick protection from mothers, beatings and abuses from fathers, and sexual assault. Plasma amputations are common, these are the real big scales that make your back chills.

Beverly attracted the blood from the sewer to spray the entire bathroom, which may symbolize the sexual fear of the girl's menarche, or it may imply the sexual assault from the father. But her father followed the sound and saw the blood-stained daughter shivering in the corner, just a few words to comfort him, he took the blood from the washbasin and left without knowing it.
Children's fears, sorrows and joys can never be understood and empathized by adults. They use "It" to refer to the newborn baby, and it seems that it is no different from the cub. "What's so scary about?" "What's so happy about that", listening to these words while being dragged forward by their broad hands, I think most people have this experience.

A rare positive energy horror film that creates fear and tells you not to be afraid, to overcome it, and then dispel the fear. Therefore, the subtitles at the beginning of the film showed the real body of the clown before the end of the film. All the horrible details are clear and realistic. This is all for the defeat of the clown by the loser club in the end.
Welcome to the loser club! Really young.

In the fourth season of "Horse Boy BoJack", Todd once again had a genius, and he launched a clown dentist project, letting the clown pretend to be a dentist or the dentist pretends to be a clown to extract teeth for the children. God bless the children.
The corners of the clown's smiling mouth originated from the torture of the British gangsters, calling Glasgow smile. The victim in the black dahlia case also endured such torture.
John Wayne Gacy, the killer clown, the number one person who stopped the children’s night cry, was a serial murderer who said 30 fewer lives in the 70s, and was usually a naive clown who specialized in making children happy, so he also killed him. teenager.
Chaplin, Rowan Atkinson, and Kim Kelly, outstanding comedians, have a touch of depression. In the "Mind Agents" sidebar, all the emotional elves in the clown actor's heart are frowning.
The Uncanny Valley theory says that anthropomorphic but inhuman images cause the most discomfort to people.
The most important point is that the clown is not a positive image. He is cute and laughs by throwing himself or others into a dilemma and ridiculing him, and by arousing the negative emotions of the crowd. People with a sense of morality will consciously treat him. This creates conflict.
In this way, the alienation of the image of clowns and cultural symbols is reasonable.

The original work of "Return to the Clown" is Stephen King. The 1990 version of "The Clown" is the first time his work has been put on the screen.
In fact, many of Stephen King’s works are inextricably linked, some share worldviews, and some are guest appearances in the nature of easter eggs. According to the popular saying, this is called the Stephen King universe. "Shawshank's Redemption" is also his work, and it is one of the few purely literary works in a series of strange and chaotic works. In Shawshank prison, there are many criminals from Delhi town. It is said that in Delhi town, there is also a door leading to the world of the dark tower.
The Dark Tower is Stephen King’s most heavyweight work, a masterpiece that took 30 years of painstaking effort and effort. This year, the Dark Tower IP movie was also released, and it went from word of mouth to box office to horrible.
Many people commented that this is the horror version of "Walk with Me", and the original novel of "Walk with Me" is also the work of Stephen King.
It's really Stephen King who has me everywhere.
His works extend from novels to film and television works. There is always a sense of warmth in the decadence and desolation, like drinking a sip of soup for a long time, and you can always feel warmth after a few swaying in the stomach.

The heroine is so beautiful, a 15-year-old girl with red curly hair and freckles, the subtlety between the little girl and the woman, so assertive and brave, is the ultimate poison for all little boys.
