A Midsummer Nightmare / 3.19 Records.

*I haven't watched a horror movie for a long time after "The Conjuring", and "A Midsummer Night's Fright" was almost the one I watched all the way through. "How poetic, this is the brightest and hottest summer ever." The whole film starts with a grand festival atmosphere and ends with the almost crazy carnival of the villagers. I always feel like I watched it for two hours and twenty-seven minutes. The absurd comedy makes people numb and chill to the bone. They divide life into four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. They would make an old man leap off a cliff, grieved that he didn't die right away. They see the joy of love and sexuality as a ritual to conceive the next generation, and when he is surrounded by a group of naked women when he is married to the girl who chose him, Christian realizes that this place is a crazy fantasy. What's terrifying is that his final decision of life and death is in the hands of his girlfriend, their may queen... Tina finally curled her lips and sent the former lover who betrayed her into the temple, with their dead friends Burn it with the villagers who offered sacrifices. When the screen finally showed her weird smile, accompanied by the hymn to welcome the new life, I understood that along with the temple was reduced to ashes along with her pain, her love, all her emotions and what she called" "Humanity", she is truly a carnival with the people around her, merged with the heat of Midsummer. I still see the sadness of human nature. When the two old men jumped off the cliff, I felt that the people in this place were paranoid and terrible. I knew that the girl in the village cast a love spell on him or chose to betray his girlfriend. I was told that the village The "Bible" can't be circulated or to take pictures in the middle of the night for the paper... I always feel that it is a bit ironic. But the truth is that all of them are not redeemed, and those who die and those who do not die are tragic. These so-called ceremonies, the so-called celebrations, are nothing but Satan's carnivals.

    For me, the overall look and feel is not as good as hereditary misfortune, but I think the front part of this film is often better than the back part, especially the mirror scenes in the front part are really beautiful. The plane scene shift is also excellent. The cut is also getting more and more exciting. It always gives people the feeling of being cult for the sake of cult, and the cinematography of the group scenes is generally not fluid enough. After watching it for so long, the sugar water is really a little tired. The group p at the end is only curious and can tell the director Obviously crazy, but the style is not unified, but this film is destined to become the holy mountain of this era. Finally, do you want to say that there is no money for casting? I feel that there is no successful casting, especially the heroine has no spirituality

    Want to learn the wicker man? Fail. And it is quite lengthy, intending to combine the heroine line with the main line, but it is quite blunt. In the second half, he rolled his eyes in particular, and was filled with that self-consciously sublime design. But the force was too much, which led to frequent bursts of laughter in the field, which was really gimmicky...Ari Aster has a weird sense of misogyny after two consecutive feature films...
