In fact, in Hollywood For example, the originality of "Death Is Coming" is still very good. It has some psychological horror. The chasing is no longer a perverted murderer wielding a chainsaw, nor is it a hideous alien creature, nor is it The ghost with its teeth and claws dripping with blood in its eyes is the "Grim Reaper" who can't see, touch or even appear on the scene. It seems that this director with a Chinese name has absorbed some elements of the story of Japanese horror movies, which not only scare people, but also Cost savings (makeup for those horror characters, lol). Getting used to seeing tons of blood everywhere in Hollywood, this movie is a bit offbeat. To me, those blood rains and stumps are nothing. Couldn't stop my appetite, what really made me feel bigger pores was the fear that people had before they died, conveyed to me through the screens of monitors.
Death is coming, we know he's coming, he's right there with us, but We don't know where he is. The only thing we can grasp is the order of death. When people know that they are doomed, especially when they are next, the sense of fear is most real. Although the performance of those actors does not Excellent, but that feeling of helplessness and struggle was still conveyed to me. I wasn't scared because I knew someone was going to die, I was just curious. Of course, that's because I wasn't among those being hunted by death I think, when a man gets to that point, he's going to do something crazy, no matter how calm he is. Like Eugene, the black motorcyclist in episode 2, when the head caught by the elevator is on him I think even the toughest person shudders when it rolls like a ball in front of me. That fear is what attracts me, not the rolling head, or the drug addict Gary cut into three pieces by the barbed wire .
However, the law that most Hollywood sequels are dog-tailed sequels is inevitably staged in this film. Compared with other series films, which are mostly postquels and prequels, the sequel of this film can be described as groundbreaking. The original story and the original plot are played again with some actors, as if this is a classic Shakespeare play. There are as many Hamlets as there are people; but no matter how many people there are, there is only one death in their eyes. Old wine in a new bottle, no change for the soup. Originally, there was a survivor Claire from the first episode in the second episode (although I knew how Carter died, but I didn't explain how Alex died, and I don't know how Claire ran to the mental hospital), I thought it would have something to do with the last episode, or that Claire became the guiding character throughout this series, but unexpectedly ended up in a place that wasn't the climax. I have to admire the director's talent.
After the storyline is tied to a fixed framework, directors and screenwriters can only work on the gore of the sleep and the way the characters die. This trend actually started in the second episode and became more pronounced by the third episode. Not only the method of death is renovated, but also the scene of death is also portrayed. Originally, a fire coffin and screams were enough, but I had to show the process of how dehydrated and carbonized skin that was severely burned under ultraviolet light. I can imagine what I haven't seen before, imagine what the people there are like, and then I can't help shuddering, but fortunately it's not me; however, the director was afraid that I didn't think correctly, so he insisted on filming, "Oh, That's what it looks like." The fear that came from the bottom of his heart disappeared. This is a horror movie, not a medical school teaching video.
After watching the third episode, I yawned and said, it's finally over. Then they were all deleted into the recycle bin. In the last episode, Wendy's "Damn, here we go again" was originally a very classic line, but unfortunately faded in the lackluster of the whole film ("Death Is Coming 3"). .
Before shutting down, I emptied the recycle bin.
