I just watched the new version of "The Attic" starring Mi Shuai, and then I went straight down to the "basement", and catching people turned into ghosts. Why do I feel an indescribable joy? And what's interesting is that these two movies really Communicable common language. No matter what kind of secrets are hidden, the truth will be out of the viewer's imagination, so just enjoy the fun of guessing. In short, to remove the mask of evil and expose the evil of human nature, the themes of these two films are the same in different ways.

In a nutshell, this is a crooked story about inviting you to enter the urn. It coincides with a view that "the wicked have their own grind". The urn is a strange old house with a disgraceful history. The hostile young girl is the bait. According to the words of the security guard who is interested in supernatural events, because of the negative energy of the girl, the ghosts in the underworld are attracted. While playing hide-and-seek with ghosts, the girl used her human brain to think about the danger she was facing. Finally, everyone found a truth, the most terrifying thing in this world is not ghosts, but people.

The story is heavy, isn't it? There is still a little bit of Chen Chen Xiang's sense of it, so it depends on how you say it. If you talk the right way, there will be a big surprise. To be honest, horror movies like "Staying Home" are quite rare. Classify it as a ghost story, and play it how the primary fans of ghost movies think. For example, the dark lights can hear all kinds of strange movements, ghost hands are grabbing people's ankles, the basement is filled with a terrifying gloomy atmosphere, furniture will move, food will fly without wings, it is best to sleep with your eyes open like Zhang Fei. Anyway, there is no intention of ingenious horror elements, cheap and familiar plots can be seen everywhere, but the freshness is surprisingly strong, and the process of watching the film is definitely a great enjoyment.

Then, bang, in the atmosphere of a ghost movie, hang up the carriage of a crime suspense movie. Bang, bang, bang, bumps all the way, through the tunnel, in addition to moving the mouth, but also moving the knife and saw, from one denture to another denture, when the clues become clear, one turns around, and the burlap is wrapped bigger and tighter. . Obviously, this is an intellectual game, after all, it doesn't want to induce heart disease in people in a rude way, and it also has a girl's tender heart. It's like a novelty toy, it looks exactly like a teddy bear, but it can talk, it seems to be able to think, and it can chat with people. Is such a teddy bear scary or scary? . All in all, I probably liked this film too much, typing the words, I could almost feel the dancing soul getting swayed.

Saying that the movie "Staying Home" is like a head of garlic, will it affect the mood of watching the movie? Forget it, before the petals are broken, the pungent smell has spread unscrupulously, and it is also a matter of getting drunk in garlic. A problem, and then mixed into the leek box, it can be directly used as a biological weapon. That is to say, this film is like a mangosteen, and the image is vivid enough. In public, it is not bad taste.

From this, taking a piece of it, its taste is a kind of healing and tenderness. Produce a story about "family", from how the broken "gnawing old clan" daughter and her mother rebuilt a good life, and reproduced the childhood pain of the heroine who refused to grow up. This is thanks to the performance artist who hides behind the wall in the play, the ninja manga otaku, whose pen goes with him, and his existence is to summon the return of the heroine. And the rewinding life of the heroine is like this. The little girl lived in a single-parent family since she was a child, and lived in a "ghost house" with her mother. After her biological father left them the troubled house, she went to marry someone else and have children.

After experiencing all kinds of growing up troubles, the female college changed eighteen times, turned into an angry bird, and also became a female man with all five poisons. All in all, bad luck. The good news is that when she did evil, she was still an unlucky person, and everything went wrong. As a result, the attempted robbery brought out her psychological problems, such as auditory hallucinations and social barriers, which required anger management and the intervention of a psychological counselor. Because the female man was taught and committed many times, the government did not want to spend more money, so it simply sent her to her mother's residence and began eight months of home confinement. When you see this, you don't know yet, but you will eventually understand that there is a kind of existence called "destined in the dark".

Then I broke off the second petal, and I won the lottery. The corroded pulp that I broke off was smashed when I squeezed it. I said it was a heavy mouth and was full of malice. From this, I would like to say again that "Staying Home" is essentially a pretty awesome crime suspense film. Let the "ghosts" in the haunted house wander in the Yang world and cannot rest in peace, which is due to an unjustified case. The villains who are on the loose are happy to live one day, and the strange things in the haunted house will not disappear. So who is the murderer? Wow, the ability to move the target of "Staying Home" is due to the skill of "Lingbo Weibu", and in the blink of an eye, logical reasoning and so on disappear, that is to say, the guess is wrong. But this kind of trick is absolutely sincere, without the suspicion of contrived, it sells for a second, and it will never be annoying.

The third petal, which is big and tender and lubricated, is thrown into the mouth, and there is no fruit pit, and it really won the prize again, which is really exciting. Yes, I'm talking about the humorous tones of New Zealand comedy films. From "String Flight", I have loved their slow rhythm, and the joyful atmosphere spreads from the inside out. Peter Jackson talks about the creation of "The Lord of the Rings", their brain holes and the content of the conversation can always hit people's laughter, you think, are we too "tricky". In the movie "Staying Home", including the villains, all the characters also have the characteristics of being cute. The actions are so, and so are the expressions, especially in the dialogue. For example, the mother-daughter raising the bar, and the conversation effect of the girls on different channels and the security guard interfering with each other, these are all wonderful clips.

There is no doubt that the heroine is a character who can play. As a mixture of various contradictory personalities, her behavior has a natural humorous effect. The girl is a materialist, or the incarnation of female Zhong Kui, who never lies, is soft-hearted, thorny, knows women's self-defense, and is a good joker. Imagine a horror movie that makes you laugh out loud. It feels very fresh to have such a hobbyist who will take you to catch ghosts, make you laugh, and scare you black.

The last petal, the white is yellow, and the yellow is yellow, which has a visual impact. In this way of metaphor, I want to say that the bloody index in "Staying Home" is not low at all. If I want to watch "Liver and Brain on the Ground", it will not disappoint you. You may not imagine that the head of a "ghost" can be powered by electricity. The wrench exploded and cracked, and the blood splattered. If this is a 3D effect, you can even wipe the corner of your mouth to feel whether the ketchup splattered on your face is from "Ken Kee" or "Mai Kee". Hopefully, the flesh of this mangosteen has already attracted the greed of the spectators. In fact, the husk that wraps around the pulp also has chewable value.

Mr. Johnstone, who also writes and directs, is really good at it. He can be regarded as a cutting-edge director in the field of directors. The horror and suspense comedy movie "Staying Home" that makes people's heart flutters is from him. It seems that it is still his debut work. What came out was a solid first bench. This mysterious expert who knows how to use other people's "coveted" saliva as a fishing line may be a remote education auditor of Jiang Taigong's fishing training class overseas. I saw that in the center of the island, he caught all kinds of fish and used various poses to make the blood of the onlookers by the river boil with all kinds of enthusiasm. If I want to see the director's handsome face, and people haven't posted photos yet, I can only imagine that he is a bad boy with a white quilt and no bottom line.

Not to mention that the actors in the movie are his props, even the emotions of the audience are the toys that make them more fun. He took his hook and swung a pole on the left and another on the right, which not only adjusted the viewer's ears, nose, and eyes, but also stimulated the viewer's pituitary and adrenal glands. Moreover, you can't even frame "Stay Home" with a certain type of film mode, the so-called "Jiang Taigong is here, there are no taboos". Playing with ghosts, but also playing with people; to be fresh, but not to say anything harsh. Please pay attention to the poster of "Staying Home", which completely highlights the neurotic temperament of this drama. See those four "human" expressions? Gloomy, grotesque, humorous, angry. In short, in the process of watching the movie, you will feel the deep sadness of everyone being played by the director, it is really painful and happy.
