There are still two weeks before the Spring Festival, and the films that will be released two weeks before the Spring Festival are usually cannon fodder.
A Japanese original version of "Worry-free Grocery Store", because it collided with the Chinese (Wang Junkai) version that was released not long ago, two words were added in front of the title. The formula is still the same mediocre;
Several animations that don't know the audience;
Trying to catch a wave of dog movies of the Year of the Dog;
And a horror film that is out of date: "Happy Death".
After reading Tucao: a completely unscrupulous poster
To be honest, don’t you have to work overtime if you celebrate the New Year? Who is going to watch horror movies?
In particular , the word "happiness" puts a horrible atmosphere on a festive day. It is simply sinister intentions. Could it be that some kind of alternative marketing methods fail?
As a result, I have to say that after seeing it, I am really happy!
In recent years, Hollywood movies must incorporate funny elements no matter what they are filming: from the campus talk of "Spider-Man: Homecoming", to "Justice League", the big book asked Aquaman to "put a fish out for investigation", and more Needless to say, "Thor 3" was added with 30 minutes of jokes after the cut. Superhero blockbusters can be said to have gained a lot of sweetness from funny, so that a serious movie like "Star Wars 8" seems out of place.
Because once the audience is not laughing, they will start to notice your script...
"Happy Death" also belongs to the category of this kind of movie: not to mention the script, it is really funny, entertaining, and will not fall asleep.
A college girl was brutally murdered on her birthday, and she woke up to find that she was back that morning. It was Deja vu who thought it was a nightmare. She experienced everything she didn’t want to experience again and again. The same people handed her the same flyers, passers-by who fainted at the same time, the same conversations, and finally, the same, she went through again. Be killed.
The one who killed her was a masker
At first glance, it may sound like "Source Code" and "Horror Cruises" such complex high-IQ thrillers, but this is not the case at all. As the biggest gimmick of the film, the "time loop" and "resurrection" settings, the interpretation of "Source Code" is the recurrence of "brain cell images" after death, and Tomo in "Edge of Tomorrow" has obtained an alien The ability of humans to control time, "Terror Cruise" uses ghosts and illusions to cast a layer of unbreakable mysticism.
And "Happy Death" did not give any explanation at all , director Christopher Langdon put more energy on those interesting little details.
For example, a male classmate pitifully ran up to the heroine Terry and asked her why she ignored him. Terry’s answer is:
"You don't have the length of a Subway sandwich yet."
Girl, you are miserable, you have hit the dead hole of the male classmates!
So after being killed again, Terry ran downstairs to the male classmate’s house, trying to test if the murderer was him, but she saw this scene:
For another example, a cute little brother suggested to the hostess that since you can't escape and die, it's better to die several times to find out who is killing you.
So the heroine suddenly figured out: Yes, I can't die anyway, and people will forget whatever I do the next day, so why not just let me go? ? ?
hey you!
All kinds of waves during the day, all kinds of death at night.
Knocked to death:
Drowned:
I was stabbed to death from behind when I was swiping the phone:
Even in the quick montages and exaggerated American High School pop music, even the pain of death is lost.
The time loop has finally become as simple as a game archive, and the pleasure of the movie has also quickly shifted from horror to: archive, read files, improve favorability, and solve puzzles that are suspected of "card bug" games that will surely find the killer in the end. Set it up-because you don't worry about her anymore, she will not die, she will definitely find the murderer, and will definitely chase the cute little boy!
So you can better focus on all kinds of small and exquisite funny things, and then laugh.
Americans like to categorize various movies. For example, there is "Popcorn Flick", which is a brainless blockbuster that people go to watch with popcorn; there is also a "Chick Flick", which some people translate as "chicken movie", and the protagonist is often campus The young girls here are always chatting, relaxed and romantic, with exaggerated love and cute little milk dogs.
Essentially, "Happy Death" also belongs to this kind of "chicken movie".
Speaking of acting, the heroine Jessica Rhodes has already appeared as a charming goblin in "La La LaLaLa" last year.
Her role at the time was Stone Sister's roommate and the dancer's vase.
Look at the three behind Shitou! After performing this film, Kauli Hernandez in the red dress was shot to death by an alien while making love to the male ticket in the bathhouse;
Mizuno Sonoa in the yellow skirt stabbed her "dad" to death in "Machine Ji" a few years ago;
Jessica Rhodes in the green dress died 18 times in "Happy Death"...
emmm... Choose a roommate carefully.
Of course, the film finally jumped out of a simple spoof: dying again and again, the self-esteem that was once more important than anything else, because the next day will be forgotten and slowly discarded.
After she tried to treat people around her in various ways, she began to reflect on her question: Why on earth would anyone want to kill me? Do I really understand life? Do I love the people around me?
After thinking about it this way, she began to try to be kind to others, talk to her father, and befriend her sisters, not to taunt any boy Tintin, and even hang herself to save others.
At the moment when you almost felt a trace of the philosophical thinking about the impermanence of life in "The Day of the Groundhog", the plot took a sharp turn and gave a speechless ending. I feel that the screenwriter's meaning is: Philosophy is of course very important, but at the box office More importantly, just watch my movies easily.
Barcelona movies, no movies, no life
