Remember that after the Sundance Film Festival in early 2016, "Witch" and "10 Clover Road" followed one after another, and in the beginning of 2017, in addition to "Split", we ushered in another 99% freshness The horror film "Escape from Deadly Town".
On the premise of not being spoiled, let me share with you the intuitive experience of watching the movie. The film is top-notch from the casting to the acting skills of the actors. 1. The runaway interpretation of the black male protagonist Daniel Kaluya, a young black actor from the United Kingdom, has played a supporting role in "Border Killer", and more of them have participated in British dramas, such as "Black Mirror" series. He played the role of a photographer in the film and went to visit the family of his white girlfriend on an unremarkable weekend.
In the film, whether he is talking about love, or falling into confusion, frightened, tearful, and physically and mentally desperate, he gives the maximum expression of various emotions, which makes the audience constantly worry about his situation, full of tension.
2. The mother of the white girlfriend in the story of the golden supporting actress who has been nominated for major awards is a psychologist, played by middle-aged American actor Catherine Keener. She had an outstanding performance in "The Sins in the American Pastoral" and was nominated for the Golden Globe for Best Female Supporting Actress. When she was young, she was nominated for the best female Oscar for her role in "Become John Malkovich".
Catherine Keener, whether she is an enchanting woman or a perverted woman, she can easily control her. Her fatal temptation can easily drive anyone, and she can more effectively create a sense of oppression when he is middle-aged, but she can more effectively create a sense of oppression. In "Escape from the Deadly Town", she makes her appearance and throws her hands. All the audiences feel scared. In addition to her identity as a psychologist, every movement and every look in her eyes makes people have to imagine whether there is another layer of meaning behind it.
3. More black actors’ acting on the big show. The whole movie is impressive. There are also several black supporting actors, especially Betty Gabriel, who plays the black maid in the movie. Believe me, you will have nightmares at night. Thinking of her, the area of psychological shadow cast on the audience is infinite. In it, she plays a strangely-behaved maid, serving the female and male hostess in a white house during the day, and secretly looking in the mirror in the house at night. The most exciting part is that when the actor Chris confronted her, she stared wide-eyed, smiled and cried, and it was creepy.
In addition to the black actress who creates a horrible atmosphere, there is also a professional in charge of funny in the film: the big black fat man: LilRel Howery, he plays an airport patrol in the film, as a good friend of the male protagonist, in addition to constant sharing The male lead girlfriend said that you have missed your eyes, and he repeats a mantra very predictably: "Say black people don't go to the white girlfriend's house as a guest.". When he speaks in the film, he laughs frequently. In the end, it was his persistent search for good friends that finally rescued the male protagonist from Desperate Town.
The horror atmosphere of the film is weird and scary. Today's horror movie viewers are already immune to all kinds of ghosts and weird things. The old saying goes well, it's all people making trouble, and scaring people is the most terrifying. And this "Escape from the Deadly Town" creates an atmosphere of "horror".
The parents of the white female protagonist who are former surgeons and psychologists, and the strange servants in the family all make the male protagonist feel that something is wrong more and more, and the plot leads all the way to psychological control and hypnotic cues.
In the middle of the movie, Xiao Xuan'er was prompted by a friend next door: "These black domestic helpers may think that they are white." It scared Xiao Xuan'er half to death, and the truth of the film is far more than this guess. fear.
The story layout, rhythm, and details are all just right. The plot starts with ordinary lovers returning to their hometown for the weekend. In the middle, they move on to the suspense movie route. At night, it turns into a horror movie from the beginning to the end. At the climax of the second half, it turns into a violent and bloody action movie. At the last stage of revenge, the black brothers in the back row of the movie theater continued to applaud and cheered loudly, making people think that they were watching a "live ball game."
Later, I read a lot of short reviews and found that movie theaters all over the country have such a viewing effect. It seems that this word-of-mouth work has attracted the attention and support of many black fans. In addition, there are many small details in the film. For example, the last key self-help prop of the black male protagonist is cotton. These are the easter eggs written and directed by Jordan Peel. I believe there is more, waiting for the audience to dig.
Foreign friends said that this is a movie that is difficult to define. I believe he is referring to the genre. The screenwriter put the hypnotic old stalk into a more complicated racial relationship, turning the ordinary into terror. It is a very creative idea and intention. The completion of the film is very high, and it definitely gives the audience a fresh viewing experience.
