Here, I solemnly recommend Wen Ziren. I think his films are the best way to relieve heat and dryness. No one can compare to him.
Wen Ziren, also known as James Wen, is a Malaysian Chinese who grew up in Australia and has been making horror movies in the United States for many years.
His works are not many, there are only two "Call of Souls", one "Dead Silence", two "Latent", and two "Chainsaw Cry", but each one has a pivotal position in the field of Hollywood horror films, especially The chainsaw series he pioneered is a monument that horror films cannot go around. The famous line "let's play the game" of jigsaw is just like "may the force be with you" in science fiction films in the field of horror films. Jinyu cool words. Of course, horror movies are a hobby of a small number of people. What really made Wen Ziren famous is "Fast and Furious 7", which broke 2 billion yuan at the box office in China, and many Chinese have known him.
But today I do not recommend "Chain Saw", I recommend "Call of Souls" and "Latent", because these two films are ghastly enough and have a good heat-relieving effect.
Wen's horror films do not rely on gorgeous special effects, exaggerated performances and large areas of exposure, but rely on the lens and music to create a gloomy atmosphere.
It is also a ghost. The ghosts under the lens of western directors are very extroverted. They are scary with disheveled hair in broad daylight, and they are divided into categories. Different types of ghosts rarely go wrong on the set (except for "The Cabin in the Woods"). The ghost of Wen Dao is very subtle, and he will come out to scare you after calling for a long time. He is usually raised in a deep boudoir without knowing it-only psychics can be destined to see it. Ordinary people often don't know what's going on when they die.
So other directors went to eat steak and drank red wine to sleep after the filming, but Wen Ziren was still immersed in it, and even fell into the scene of the film. It is said that he encountered it on the set during the filming of "The Soul" Strange things.
Such things as soul-calling have become strange in the heavenly dynasty. There are many ways to communicate with the dead in the southwest, such as jumping the gods, Guanshen, etc., even if they are in the eastern sea village like my home, so they are similar to most people. Than, I have not only heard about it, but even had the honor to witness the scene of the spiritual call. Because of this, since childhood, Lin Zhengying's zombie movies are scumbags in my eyes, because they are too fake.
"The Evocation" is not the same as "Latent". Director Wen made the matter of psychic and exorcism very specific, such as using a special tape recorder and camera to detect the environment, and then reporting to the church, and getting permission from the bishop to start the evocation. The whole process is orderly, you will feel that you are not watching a horror movie, but watching "Approach to Science" or "Man and Nature."
So in these films, I not only felt the sense of reality, but also their spiritual calligraphy program looked very credible, and they threw away the god sticks that I worshiped when I was a child, so I was very satisfied after watching it. There is a pleasant sensation that the shadow of childhood is swept away.
In fact, the two "Call for Souls" are based on real events in the 1970s. The first is the Rhode Island Black House incident, and the second is the Enfield Haunting Incident. Both of these events are clearly recorded in writing and cannot be explained scientifically. The police cannot close the case and can only put it on the shelf. Director Wen complied with the authenticity of the story. Whether it was the above-mentioned detection methods or the language of the film, he tried to live as much as possible. This is probably why he abandoned special effects and plasma.
In addition, Tao Wen's story is also very good, which is mainly reflected in the two "Latent". Some details of the first part, such as what the protagonist encountered when he went downstairs, and finally what his wife saw in the photo, Wen Tao did not explain, and in the second part, he went back and added the first part. The blank, tight fit, and perfection, reminds me of "She is Lonely Than Fireworks". The upper and lower parts of the story are developed from the perspective of two people, and they fit like a wooden dowel. Even in the same film, there are a lot of back and forth echoes in the details, so the whole film is very dense, airtight, breathless, at first glance, it is more and more vigorous, from the inside out, a cold sweat is scared from the inside out. .
Finally, let’s talk about the scary methods of gentleness. This is the ingenuity of horror movies. Scary people must also be scared of new ideas. Like the horror movies of the sky, the noise rang from beginning to end. It's really horrible!
How is Dao Wen scary? Through some life details that everyone can experience, such as hide-and-seek, dreaming, opening and closing doors, etc., you will not go camping with your friends in the mountains or the sea where the birds do not shit (you still live in a broken house without knowing who left it), When you travel to Czechoslovakia, you will not stay in a style hotel that you can't find on the App, but you do the things in these films almost every day, because it is too life-like. When you go to the bathroom in the future, please imagine that there is a ghost in the living room watching TV on the sofa. When you blow your hair, a ghost looks at you on the ceiling. When you sweep the floor, it hits the wall with its head in the kitchen. When you fall asleep, someone pulls your quilt, and the most worrying thing is the wardrobe. When you pick clothes, you may stretch out a pale hand to grab you, and then you can match the music of the film yourself. , You can spend a cool summer.
Above, I recommend: "Calling the Soul" and "Latent". "Calling the Soul" can only watch the first part, and the second part is still in North America. It has put "Warcraft" on the ground. It is said that the big guys who are as strong as cows are scared and scream like little girls. "Latent" has three parts, but the third part has nothing to do with Wen Ziren and it is not recommended to watch it.
If you don’t feel cool enough after watching these films, please continue watching "Dead Silence" to consolidate the effect of summer escape.
