The most surprising thing about "Death Video" is his exceptional filming method - DV, which was used in the early classic "Blair Witch", and its low-cost shooting earned ten times The box-office result was a sensation. In fact, it was not the first filming method to be used, but a German thriller "Cannibal" in the 1980s. This film was also banned from the film industry because of its too realistic effect. , and later disappeared, and now this "death video" once again pushed this DV technique to the peak in the world.
In addition to the bloody show-off and the intimidation of zombies, in fact, if you are careful, you will notice that the film is outstanding in three points: the
first is the DV shooting method mentioned above, the The reality is very frightening, I remember being frightened by a scene; the
second is the closed apartment; trying to imagine being attacked by layers of dangerous zombies in a sealed building or the street being attacked by a group of surging zombies? The answer must be former. People tend to create a certain private space in a space. The narrower the space, the more eager it is. On the contrary, the larger the space is, the more comfortable and easy it is to move. The film creates a scene with a sense of urgency. Thinking of isolation, zombies are bloodthirsty in the whole narrow apartment, and the narrow escape corridor makes the audience feel very uncomfortable in the inspection environment;
The third is what I think is the most important point: light; attentive friends will notice the light from the beginning of the film to the headlights of the camera slowly and then to the end of the light with only a night vision light, so the light experience that comes It made people feel more and more depressing. This feeling started when they arrived at the apartment. The apartment was completely powered off. The photographer only used the machine lights to illuminate the passage. At this time, there were only two people left. The corridors of the apartment You can't even guess what will appear in the dark, listening to the running and breathing sounds of reporters and photographers, the audience will definitely feel more and more tense and oppressive, and the whole film will breathe more quickly and narrowly. In the dim light of the corridor, there were occasional screams, and the audience was almost suffocated by fear. There is a scene in the climax. The two people who found the key ran to the top floor. At this time, the group of corpses was surging, and the heartbeat immediately accelerated, getting faster and faster. The zombies were about to reach the top floor. The reporter opened the door, the camera spun around, the door quickly It's a very exciting scene to lock the zombies who have almost come out.
In the end, the light of the camera was knocked out by an invisible object, and the panicked breathing continued. After the night vision light was turned on, the reporter hugged the photographer tightly. At this time, the monsters in the house found them and attacked in the dark. The camera shook violently, screams and objects knocked, the camera fell to the ground, the reporter slowly crawled forward in front of the camera, suddenly quiet, the reporter Being dragged into the endless darkness accompanied by tragic screams, the film's evolution from light to dark promotes the film's fear to a higher level.
The story of the film is relatively new. Although the plot is also a conventional zombie attack, the extraordinary photography techniques and first-class visual space technology intensify the authenticity of the horror film, and even the suffocating tension is everywhere. A rich addition to the history of classic horror films.
