Considering that although the Japanese horror films remade in the United States are very bad, the corresponding Japanese originals are worth seeing, so I will pick a good day and auspicious day to learn it. According to the explanation of a foolish character who suddenly appeared in the plot - this character appeared for a few minutes to make this explanation that seriously compromised the quality of the whole film - the general content of this film is: people who become ghosts after death Originally, I liked to hide in some low-key places, but after the population was too large, there was no place for ghosts to stay, so it flooded everywhere through things like the Internet. When I saw this idiot theory, I wanted to shut down, but I had no choice but to have two pretty girls in the film - I remembered that it would be good to have one Japanese ghost movie. There are two in this film, so I had to keep watching. Fortunately, there are still some interesting concepts behind; ghosts overflowing will always harm people. If it is not too boring, eating people is too boring, so let’s turn people into ghosts. The fun is in this ghost. In terms of reform: the Internet is not chosen because of the high economic benefits and the fast speed of dissemination, but because of the "more loneliness brought by the unreality of the Internet to modern people". Therefore, the so-called ghost webpage that appeared in "The Loop" was only later found to reflect a bunch of boring life videos of normal human beings. Basically, I want to explain that modern human beings have been immersed in non-real virtual exchanges for a long time, and they cannot fill their own loneliness, and these feelings of loneliness and helplessness can only be instigated by so-called ghosts (the way of incitement is rather silly, which is also one of them). It's a failure, but from the perspective of a CULT film, it's barely justified), you can turn all the big living people into ghosts, or just a little bit, scare people (cursed?) to face the DV or computer QQ video screen. camera suicide. After becoming a ghost, it is not as simple as crawling around the ceiling to scare people, but to "live forever alone in this world without end."
However, the Internet is a big thing. Such dissemination can no longer circulate in a small area like the "Midnight Bell" video tape, nor can it only affect the neighborhood like "The Grudge". After all, it is a symbol of globalization and the like. Well. The director's brilliant point is that in the end, he did not let the ghosts swarm out in a carnival like a Hollywood zombie film to make a "28 DAYS LATER" or "THE DAWN OF DEAD" as lively, but chose a barren doomsday. In the end, the protagonist drove the car around in the smoke-filled but deserted city, and occasionally crashed a plane in the sky. Although the CG seems to be too fake, the sense of despair in it is stronger than that created by the movie "SILENT HILL" is much better—that is to say, in the second half of the film, when human beings begin to gradually disappear into the shadows they have created, the film has already broken away from the scary and illogical mode of traditional Japanese excellent ghost films, and it seems Rising to the level of "postmodern eschatological allegory" - I hear a bunch of Evangelion giggling there.
In fact, this kind of end-century sentiment about disappearance is reflected in many literature, TV and movies, especially at the end of the last century, mixed with pessimism about human civilization, which is constantly emphasized. Personally, I think that if I'm not happy, I'm still carrying a comparison man, just like "DONNIE DARKO" ("Death Illusion"), the end of the world will come, THE DREAMS IN WHICH I AM DYING, ARE THE BEST I EVER HAVE. In fact, the world might be a better place without you. Why do you always push yourself and others to regard your own world as the entire human world? Why should the human world be regarded as the entire earth (even if the land is almost occupied, 70% is still the ocean)? Why consider the earth as the entire universe? If you accidentally come to an empty chat, you really want to collapse and kill the entire universe? Coupled with the fatigue and even fear of cognition of the endless world, it is better to pull the constellations in the sky into their inexplicable personality to explain. However, this is understandable. There should be vulnerable people, and the world can be rich and colorful. It is not always possible to emphasize positive things. If all vulnerable children are still rational when they are depressed to a certain level I found that "the sun shines in the sky, and the flowers smile at me", presumably not all of them can accept it, most of them are like DONNIE DARKO, waiting for an airplane engine to fall from the sky and smashing them to death, and they can't wait to solve it themselves. I'm even more sorry for the motherland, I'm sorry for the society, I'm sorry for my parents.
Let's talk about the soundtrack. Just listening to the Japanese-style aria-like accompaniment at the beginning of this film makes people feel that this film is either a fool or that there is something new and interesting--personally, it should be regarded as the latter. Well.
There are no similar ghost faces in the movie, because all the ghosts are just the transformation of boring people, they are all "real", so when the end is near, the beautiful girl is still a beautiful girl after taking off the black hood.
Regarding the depth of fun mentioned at the beginning, I personally feel that it is a particularly trouble-free creative technique. According to PARRRRR, it is to leave more room for the audience to imagine. Western horror films, due to the cultural influence of the Western modern philosophical and logical theoretical system, always have to clarify every step, even if it is a nonsense ghost film, but also create a more complete world view for themselves, so the nonsense is even more Get ridiculous. And the "Mysterious East" ghosts care so much about you - it should be said that ghosts don't care so much about you - they will give you the point and let you slowly think about something that seems to be very esoteric. Of course, first of all, you have to put a few beautiful girls and boys in the film, first make sure that you are comfortable watching it, want to like it a few words, and don’t want to just praise the pretty girls and boys so vulgar, then you will have the motivation to work hard and profound... According to this understanding, It's also very likely that I'm talking so much about this film because of the beautiful women; but "The Loop" seems to have won the most attention award at the Cannes Film Festival. There should be a reason for recommending it - if I write on it something like a recommendation.
Finally, let's take a look at the poster of the American version of "The Loop" - "PULSE". Sure enough, a bunch of ghosts and PARTYs came out. After reading the relevant posters, I found that the ghosts inside looked disgusting and scarred.
It's like I met another Japanese director and learned a lot. But I don't believe in evil! The plan of "urban romance drama" should wait for the first time. Now I am full of fighting spirit and plan to make a supernatural film that is full of big men and no beautiful girls to challenge myself! !
