In recent years, Hollywood's remakes of horror movies have become a landscape. There are imported products from Japan and South Korea such as "Undead Resentment", "Ghost Water" and "Ghost Calling", while the remake of local movies There are also many horror works. "Eyes in the Mountain", "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", "Friday the 13th" and so on have all brought demons back to life on the screen. This "Magic House" directed by Denis Iliadi is also a remake. What is the reason for this film to be re-shot? Director Denis Iliadi replied: "Obviously, the biggest improvement is at the technical level. The renewal of the film is very fast, and there is an audience in an era. With the development of time, many classics of the past, maybe It is difficult to be accepted by the current audience, and this "Magic House" is our attempt to reproduce the classics. The old version of "Magic House" is a very classic horror movie, he is the childhood of our generation Nightmare is not only because of the bloody and horrifying pictures, but more importantly, its plot. The whole story of the movie is full of suffocating despair. Unfortunately, looking at it now, there may be a lot of people who can make the audience feel The shocking content will be a little difficult to face the audience today. Therefore, for such a classic horror movie, I think it will be meaningful if the latest technology can be used to re-show its charm. So that’s why we made the film in the first place.”
It has been almost 40 years since the original version of "Magic House", there are more and more horror movies, the audience is more experienced, and the taste is getting more and more "heavy", so what is the difference between this new version and the old version in the past where? Dennis Iliadi said: "The general plot of this film is consistent with the old version. We also thought about rewriting the plot, but then both I and the screenwriter believed that the original work was a very classic story, and there was no such thing as a The need to change it is because we still follow the original story line in general structure. And we focus on the many horror scenes of this film, because the old method does not work for today's audience, so we Made a lot of improvements and referenced a lot of movies to make the violence scenes in this film look more 'not suitable for children'. Also, we don't want to over-exaggerate the bloody scenes, so the audience will be hard to see in this film When it comes to the scenes full of blood all around, we want to strengthen the appeal to the audience from the story relationship of the characters, such as the murder of the gangster to the victim, and the love of parents for their children, which is transformed into hatred for the murderer. The movie should have enough reasons for the protagonist to use violence in order for the audience to agree that this is not a boring horror movie, and I think "House of Magic" has done that."
Parents who avenge a woman
in "House of Magic" Playing the mother of Mary, who was brutally murdered by the murderer, is Monica Potter, who is nearly 40 years old. In recent years, she has participated in many roles on the screen. The most well-known horror theme is "Chainsaw 4", but this time she has transformed from a murderer to a mother who lost her beloved daughter. For this role, Monica Porter said: "I played Emma Collingwood in 'House of Magic', Mary's mother. Her character is like those of our usual mothers, a little weak, very She loves her daughter, but when she learned of her daughter's misfortune, she immediately became strong and did things that she would never have done in the past. The contrast between the front and the back of this role is what attracted me to the role, I think this role It will also impress the audience.”
And in the film plays the role of the father, it is in "The Last Samurai", "Sixth Day", "The Lost Soul" and other films have appeared in Tony Godwin. His trip to Monica Potter's husband-and-wife partner in "House of Magic" is a highlight of the film, for which Tony Goldwyn said: "I've seen the old version of this movie, in For a long time, I can't forget a lot of the plot in the movie, it is indeed a memorable horror movie. The new version of "Magic House" was purely accidental, and the studio just told me that there was a character It suits me very well. I am a father who takes revenge for a woman. After listening to it, I felt very interested, so I agreed. When I got the script, I realized that it was a new version of "Magic House". This made me I feel very happy, because the old version of "Magic House" is a very wonderful movie, and it makes me feel honored to be able to interpret the new version of this movie."
