The horror of Stephen King, the king of horror, does not rely on walking corpses, monsters, ghosts, supernatural events, nor special effects and sound effects, but quietly intrudes into your heart through a reasonable storyline, and then provoks you to hide deep in humanity. Evil and darkness, as the story radiates out, makes you feel the creepiness from the bottom of your heart.
For example, "Pet Cemetery", although the basis of the story is borrowed from the aboriginal animal cemetery, there is a strange legend of resurrection, but when the protagonist's child died unexpectedly, he buried the child because of sadness and love. This evil animal cemetery, when the dirty children crawl home from the cemetery, the horror officially begins.
For example, "The Shining" is just a horror story about an alcoholic writer who goes crazy in a snow-covered resort hotel and hunts down his family; "Secret Window" is just a horror story about a schizophrenic writer who kills his wife; , is just a horror story of a mentally ill fan who imprisoned an idol writer at home for mad love.
Watching Stephen King's horror stories, you will not feel absurd, terrifying for horror's sake, or sci-fi and fabricated, all the foreshadowing and details are reasonable, and you will naturally enter the world of his stories, Then you will be scared to death, but the opening of this film is so blunt that it is difficult for people to enter the plot.
At the beginning, the endless grass on the roadside, taller than people's heads, dense and deep, the male protagonist and pregnant girlfriend who parked on the roadside dared to die because they heard people's voices, and the two of them broke into it separately. Can the girlfriend be there? Waiting outside, can the man bring his mobile phone, can he establish contact information, and can he come back when things go wrong?
You have to go to see it, you have to open a box, you have to go to a place despite the dissuasion, etc., horror movies that are used as the beginning of the dead mode, this is the worst routine of the worst horror movies, and the audience often stops paying attention to the so-called so-called horror movies. Horror plot, will start to pay attention to the director's brain disability index and the extent to which the protagonist can die!
There are also men and women dressed in the style of the 1980s, suddenly pulling out their smartphones?
These details are unreasonable and inattentive, and the audience can't bring them in. No matter how mysterious and supernatural the story in your grass is, no matter how big the production is, we will always think that it is a random fabrication, and the horror index will naturally be greatly reduced.
In short, this piece is a bit of a Stephen King brand, which is a pity!
