For fans of "Scream and Scream", the movie routines seem to have been remembered in their hearts: voice changing phone, mask, two killers (a main killer + an immature soy sauce murderer), parties, and popular science of thriller movies. , The killer keeps falling, the hapless Dewey is stunned, the killer is so refreshing when he kills other people, and the nonsense when he kills Sidney, the killer's last moments are back. So, you really don't expect any suprise, even you can guess whether the killer is at the front door or the back door at this time.
I have to mention that "Scream 4" is more or less worthy of praise.
First, there is the "movie of the movie" mode at the beginning. This technique has been used in both the second and third parts. "Stab" is an adaptation based on "Scream". The actor plays in one movie related to this in another movie. Is there any "Dream Space" the Nth and N+1th floor taste of dreams? So compared to the audience’s level of horror, the actors may be more frightened on the set-you don’t know if the person wearing the mask is his opponent's actor, and you don’t know if he is deliberately stabbed when he goes down. Still in the middle. In "4", when the first scene appears, neither of you nor I will take it seriously, because it is too familiar, it must be a movie. After the girl is killed, switch to the two girls who are watching "Stab". You and I should basically be ready, and the show is about to begin. That's right, within two minutes, one of the girls stabbed the other companion because of too much nonsense. (Fuck me, this is the first time a murderer has appeared without a mask.) We were still waiting for the plot to develop, and finally came back to Picture-in-Picture. The director told me, "You have been tricked, this girl is not the real murderer." . Then the title "Scream" appeared, telling us, wake up, the real plot is here.
Secondly, the director/screenwriter always pays tribute to the thriller movie and "Scream" itself. "What's you favourite scary movie?" This theme that runs through the "Scream of Scream" series continues, and the popularity of thriller movies continues. I have to admit that I only learned about the undead legends like Michael, Jason, Freddy after watching the first part of "Screaming"-I went to watch "Moonlight Panic after shooting so many sequels." ", found that it was not that scary at all. On the one hand, it pays tribute to these horror movies, and on the other hand, it is also popularizing the elements of horror movies. After the director's self-deconstruction, we suddenly found that our thriller foresight ability has suddenly increased. Of course, this has the disadvantage that the audience is not easily scared.
Third, the killer's nonsensical level. From the beginning of "Moonlight Panic", I know that a murderer does not need a motive at all to kill. If you insist on a reason, the director will tell you at the end that the murderer is a pervert, and all doubts will be resolved. As a result, there is really only a horror left in a horror movie. It is completely possible to ignore the logic, and the audience will naturally have a sense of frustration of underestimated IQ. The "Screaming" series takes care of the audience. When the answer is finally revealed, a murder motive will be arranged to make the whole story round. The motive for the killing turned out to be a public fame. Fuck, no wonder I couldn't guess who the murderer was before, it was too damn good. Someone can kill even their mother just to be famous. Don't you know Yanzhaomen, Sister Feng, and Guo Meimei? Can it be done? But at least the director insisted on a murder motive, and didn't let you guess who the murderer was, even if the director won. I really want to say bitterly, "Director, you are playing a gangster. Anyway, learn from Conan. Easterners have at least mature motives for killing people. Why are there so many psychopaths in the West!!!"
Fourth, the original cast. Although the original crew was almost killed in the first three parts, Sidney, Dewey, and Gale remained strong. But it's not easy to get the old play bones together. I heard that Dewey and Gale are separated in real life, sigh, bless you, if you can make a living, just make a living. Monica, you don't want to spend time with Chandler. However, after more than ten years, I still feel emotional when I see the old faces. The feeling of the "Scream" series may not be different from "Harry Potter".
