The ending of another version of "Orphan Grudge" is still circulating on the Internet-in the end, Esther did not die, but went back to his room, humming and sang, changed clean clothes, and re-dressed as a child. I walked downstairs calmly and said to the police: "Hi, police!" Many netizens liked the ending. Indeed, a happy ending is not suitable for horror movies. But in fact, the Kate family has already suffered a heavy loss, and after Kate kicked Esther into the lake at the end of the film, he did not give a clear answer to Esther's life and death movie. Some netizens think that the deleted ending is suitable for making a sequel, but I think it is more intriguing to put the deleted clip in the sequel. At the beginning of the film, Kate’s dreams have a deeper meaning in addition to creating a creepy atmosphere. John handed Kate to a nurse and let Kate give birth alone. This abandonment actually has a good relationship with John’s hostility towards Kate. Anaphoric. Kate woke up, and then the film showed a series of "very loving" scenes-a mother who suffered a baby lost due to alcoholism was trapped in long-term self-blame, causing insomnia, irritability, and confusion. In order to alleviate this pain, she and her husband decided to dedicate their love for their dying daughter to orphans who also did not receive this kind of love. They adopted the well-behaved, sensible, versatile, and clever Astor, and prepared exquisite rooms and exquisite gifts for her. Kate's second daughter Mai Si also likes this new sister very much. Next, Esther's weird behavior let us know that she is not a normal orphan, and the story begins to turn. This is the obvious difference between American horror films and Chinese and Japanese horror films. American thrillers often have a long foreshadowing, and this foreshadowing tends to have a diametrically opposite style to the next story. The protagonist suddenly changes in a certain scene, which makes the nerves of the audience also tense. The next plot of "heart abuse" in the film really followed: Esther pointed a gun at Max, killed the nun Abigail, cut off his arm in order to get John’s pathetic, and set fire to kill Kate’s son. …These plots are not new, but when we see 9-year-old Lori being so cruel, we can’t help but be dumbfounded. Moreover, when performing these shots, the director did not choose to replace the process of killing people with blank shots like in the Sino-Japanese film, but used a lot of details to describe the process of Esther's murder-bloody and cruel. ,experienced. These shots mobilize the mood of the audience again and again, and test the audience's ability to withstand it. Not long after Esther was adopted, Kate began to suspect this unusual orphan, but John had always been on Esther's side. Although Esther provokes the separation between them, it cannot be denied that the root cause of the estrangement between them is their mistrust. We can know from the following plots that husband John was once a "ghost" and wife Kate was a "drunkard". The cruel words they said when they quarreled are enough to show that they did not forget the unpleasantness of their past. This kind of mistrust has always been Exist, even fermenting. Many netizens attribute this tragedy to John, But everyone overlooked a role, that is, the psychologist in the film. She did not find Esther’s problem, and described her as a shy, sensitive, and kind-hearted poor orphan, and attributed all the abnormal problems Kate felt to Kate, even Kate must also be arranged for treatment. Her role is far greater than contributing to the flames. Not only are suspense films, many American films have themes that express challenges to authority. In American films, government personnel, scientists, psychologists... all have a very serious and irresistible face, but in the end they become complete fools, and those who resist them eventually become heroes. How much Yankee loves to tease authority! When the evil face of the little girl became more and more ferocious, the audience turned more attention to Kate and Max. Whether it is Kate's sixth sense or the role of maternal love, Kate's role has also changed dramatically. She changed from a weak and sensitive mother who lost her baby to a "detective" who uncovered the mystery, investigating step by step. But when Kate decided that Esther wanted to murder his son Daniel, his husband once again took care of Esther. The plot of Ace's characteristics to lure John has brought the curiosity of all the audience to the extreme. At this time, Kate's phone rang, and the mystery was revealed. I believe that many viewers have noticed that when Kate was arrested by the doctor, they noticed that the phone that Kate had dropped on the ground rang. There are many similar plots in the film. These plots make the audience sigh "It's a pity, it's almost a little bit!" This point, whether it makes the audience angry or regretful, captures the audience's curiosity and makes the movie More attractive. This makes American movies completely different from many Chinese movies whose endings are known at a glance! The next Kate played the role of a hero. She drove home quickly, resisting the pain of her bereaved husband, fighting against the fierce Esther, and saving her little daughter. Her last fatal kick "dedicated" to Este was even more applauded by the audience! If Kate’s role has changed a lot, the more shocking that the 6-year-old Maisi brings to everyone comes from the contrast between her weak body and hearing loss and the clever and flexible her. . Compromise when it is time to compromise, and when it is time to start, she is controlled by Esther but rescued Daniel from her hands. She was timidly afraid to tell her mother the truth but it was her shot that saved the mother who fell into the mouth of a tiger. Max relied on his own wisdom to deal with Esther, unscathed. In the end, the weak mother and the little daughter who has no power to bind the chicken will become the heroes of the film. American suspense films are very similar in this respect, and rarely have a happy ending, but the ultimate winners, survivors, and many of the people who are vital to unraveling the mystery have been opposed, despised, or watched from the beginning. It seems to be a very weak person. This plays an important role in shaping the heroic image of the protagonist in the film, just like the common method of praising and suppressing in writing, the final weaker is weaker and the final hero is taller. American suspense films also have a very distinctive feature. They give the audience the answer to the story, but they do not limit the audience's answer to the theme and character image. You can see on the forum that many people are discussing whether the tragic death should really be Este’s end. The 33-year-old disguised as a 9-year-old orphan to seduce her adoptive father. After failing, she killed her adoptive father and killed him. For many other innocent people, she deserved it for being killed. However, some netizens felt that her inherent flaws not only brought her a psychological shadow, but also the strange vision of others, and she should be influenced by love. Although I personally think that anti-human audiences will have the second idea, but the suspenseful films in the United States make many audiences noisy. The sudden change in the style of the picture, the front and back contrasts of the characters, the subtle details, the intriguing plot, the ironic heroic theme, and the controversial ending make American suspenseful films full of highlights. But the most important thing is that they play a mental game with the audience!
