Xianzan's main creative point is the use of video recorders such as surveillance dv, partly because of limited budgets, but as the producers of Ang Lee's first two films said, the stretched budget seems to be a disadvantage on the surface, but as long as you are good at it Dealing with it will add color to the film. For example, at the beginning of this film, a man and a woman grab the ATM machine. The first scene in the video is a surveillance video. The second time the surveillance video appears is that after the female protagonist stuffed a firecracker, the ATM exploded. , how to shoot this scene, you have to hire a demolitionist, but if it is turned into surveillance, a spring thunder should be enough; and at the end, when the fat police officer came to cut the ankle ring, my mother took the dv to record this moment, While lively and lively, they can also shout Eugene with a dead stalk to tell the audience that they are living happily ever after.

The heroine drove to the police station at night to take notes, and the police responded much like the sloths in Crazy Zoo.

There were indeed dead people in the house, but there was no ghost in the house, it was Eugene. The characters were introduced ten minutes before the opening, and they began to use the effective techniques of horror genre films, music, strange neighbors, the foreground is a distorted dead tree, the rear mirror is a gloomy mansion, the way to dilute the horror is the characters, and the big heroine smokes Responding to the neighbor who looked like a murderer with a smoky venom rather than full of fear, a cute but sensitive mother who babbles, a fat and dull policeman rather than a lean and serious policeman, the main creators create a terrifying and thrilling environment while at the same time. Use the non-type or funny type of the characters to eliminate the horror and thriller, to achieve a mix and match, that is, the effect of black humor, especially in the last scene of the chase scene, mother and Eugene played an active role in the atmosphere.

Only when genre films reach the limit can they be reversed. Write the script of the genre film, and then change it to anti-type or non-type.

Eugene's setup is interesting. It enriches the types of stories of people in the house, elves, beetle juice, empty room, lurking, grudges, and recently there is a movie about inheritance, can't remember the name, Rosemary's child, etc. However, the setting of this big house is difficult to be orientalized, the house is too small

    7 points. It's an interesting horror movie. It's really rare for a female man to scare away the "ghost" in the house~~ Often when the horror episode starts, a humorous and funny plot will come out, and the result is that under the horror music, It is a hilarious plot, very incongruous, but very interesting. It's a little surprise this year.

    7. The actors' performances and plots are sometimes a bit stiff, but the process of deducing and discovering the truth is still good. Do you want a childhood sweetheart in the town house?
