"The horror behind the Hong Kong version of hell"

Huang Jiawen, a woman who has been blind since childhood, uses her sense of touch and hearing to experience a world she imagined. In it, all beauty is magnified, and all ugliness is weakened. Just because in the invisible situation, consciousness will lead us to a place where both spirit and soul yearn and linger.

Until one day, when she was able to re-understand the world with the help of corneas donated by others, all her ideas were disillusioned, she could see what others could not see, and suffered pain that others did not need to bear. It is what extraordinary people should endure, gradually grinding away the edges and corners in the depression and stagnation, becoming sophisticated and gentle.

Can see ghosts and foresee all tragedies. In addition to being entangled in such torment, there is also a sense of panic and loss brought about by helplessness and powerlessness. Jiawen originally thought that the composition of the beautiful world in his mind could be realized, but what followed was the insomnia every night and the panic every day. Just like her confession, it turns out that to be extraordinary is to see what others can't. This is the spirit of the Peng brothers, which is about the essence. Under Yang Dechang's film, the same principle is changed to: "I will help you take a picture of the back of your head, because you can't see it." This is about understanding.

As a horror movie, relying on the elevator scene can make most of the audience's adrenaline soar. When you enter the elevator, you are the only one behind. There is a half-faced old man with his feet off the ground. He wants to pat you on the shoulder. Now, you can smell him, but the elevator is still stuck on the 14th floor.

In the same year, there was also a classic horror film "Alien Dimension" in Hong Kong films. The technique of horror films is essentially about people's hearts. Based on too many conjectures and rumors, as well as Leslie Cheung's superb and heart-wrenching acting, I was always shocked and saddened to watch.

Now the theater will also show many horror films, domestic horror films. There's not much to look forward to other than the poster being able to look the same. Even Clockwork Zhang joked every time that the next step was the appreciation of domestic horror movie posters. Sometimes I really can't complain about the matting technique of the drawing group. I don't understand why something with such good resources and opportunities is so bad. If the literary film is not easy to do well, don't all focus on it here. Hey, it really hurts, I have nothing to worry about when I am idle.
