Doll, doll, charming and dangerous, this moment is soft, and the next second will kill you.
Honestly, [Nightmare Dollhouse] is pretty scary.
As the title says, there are both nightmares and dolls in [Nightmare Doll House].
Although the doll's scary trick is a little old-fashioned in horror movies, it is as easy to use as Banlangen cures all diseases.
The dolls in the film are more than bizarre, but scary but not ready for the fire. If my sister didn't open the mirror cabinet, the room full of dolls might just be a gimmick.
What's really scary are the perverts of two crazy addicted dolls.
Perverts are obsessed with dolls and imprison the sisters by dressing them up as dolls. Movies also have a special liking for them. In the silent film era, they appeared on the screen.
This article contains a small amount of scary pictures, please read with caution.
I have to say that the entertainment life of the ancient Egyptians was really colorful.
When Da Yu was still controlling floods in China, they invented one of the earliest human toys, the first doll in history, the paddle doll .
The reason why it is called the paddle doll is because it is very abstract, and it looks more like a bed paddle than today's dolls.
After that, dolls have sprung up in different civilizations. The ancient Roman dolls in 300 BC and the detachable dolls in ancient Greece are the ancestors of modern dolls.
Various dolls appeared, which were no longer just pure toys, but also assumed the functions of prayer and witchcraft.
In Japan, Dharma dolls are sent to temples to be burned at the end of each year to pray for good luck in the coming year, which originated in Japan in the late Edo period.
The famous voodoo doll is not the work of African voodoo, but is actually a trick used by British charlatans to fight witches in the seventeenth century.
Whether it is a toy or a witchcraft, it is just the emotional support of human beings for this human-like object. Until the movie appeared, the doll had another scary function.
In 1908, the grandfather of the film, George Merry , made a film called "Dolls of Life", and gave the first doll to the film that was still waiting to be fed. However, due to the age, the copy of this film has been lost.
When the doll really took the spotlight on the screen, it was 20 years later, in 1929, when James Cruz made [Love Song] .
Although Cruz made this film more to show off the sound film technology that was just born, the weird-looking Otto was like a torrent, terrifying the audience.
[Love Net Song] It was just an accident, and the [Night of the Dead] in 1945 began to move for real.
Probably taking inspiration from medieval British warlocks, in 1972 Ken Russell made [Lister Mania] .
Borrowing the shell of the famous 18th-century pianist Liszt, the film fictionalized a promiscuous and rock 'n' roll Liszt who died because the voodoo doll bound to him was pierced through the heart.
Although the film is not funny, it introduces the concept of voodoo dolls into the film. Since then, the doll scaring methods are no longer limited to flirting with ventriloquism masters, but have become more diverse.
By accident, the doll took root in the movie like this. The audience would not have thought that the doll, which usually looks harmless to humans and animals, entered the movie theater and turned out to be so disgusting.
Dolls are not just for children, there are adults who are crazy about it.
However, it is only natural for children to like dolls, and adults' obsession with dolls has become a fetish.
British psychologist Fairbairn once said: " The most primitive need is the need for relationships. In the development of children, the caregiver is extremely important as an object of attachment. "
The mother is the caregiver and the object of the child's attachment, but it is impossible for a person to accompany him 24 hours a day. At this time, the baby will carry the banner.
To put it bluntly, children like dolls because they are the dolls of their mothers, and they are responsible for providing emotional comfort when the mother is not around.
Generally speaking, the fascination with dolls is time-sensitive and will gradually fade with age and mental maturity, but there are also specialties.
Therefore, although the causes of adult doll addiction are complex, most of them stem from childhood experiences.
Just like the big pervert in [Nightmare Doll's House], although there is no clear account of his life experience, but from the sudden voice of the doll in the middle of the film, which makes him hysterical, his childhood should be discriminated against and extremely lack of love.
In [Spiritual Puppet Contract] , there was originally a bit of violent tendencies, coupled with the disfigurement fire in his childhood, Brahms' mind will always stay at the age of eight, and the puppets his parents made for him became his life.
But doll love isn't always perverted.
In [Love of Inflatable Dolls] , Lars is a miserable man. His mother died of dystocia, and he was abandoned by his brother when he was young. He lived alone until 27.
Due to his lonely childhood, he suffered from autism and social anxiety until he fell in love with the blow-up doll Bianca.
But the residents of the town were not disgusted. Everyone's well-meaning lies allowed him to complete an absurd love, and his childhood depression was finally released.
In 2009, it was Hiroeda who made [Air Dolls] , and the love of dolls became more complicated.
The inflatable doll played by Pei Doona is a 40-year-old single white-collar worker's lust tool. Before each use, a man will accompany the doll to eat and bathe it, like a boyfriend.
This kind of love actually made the baby think and developed a love for the man. At the moment, he couldn't tell whether it was a man who loves the baby or the baby's lover.
Whether it is the shadow of childhood or a single white-collar worker, there is no lack of love and no lack of loneliness.
The doll is small and light, filling the wound of the soul, just right.
Why are some people afraid of dolls?
In addition to leaving no effort on the screen to portray it as a mysterious threat, it is more important because of the Uncanny Valley theory .
The theory was first mentioned in the paper "The Psychology of the Uncanny Valley" published by German psychiatrist Ernst Zhanchi in 1906, and was later extradited to the field of robotics by Japanese scholar Masahiro Mori, where it was formally systematized.
In the Uncanny Valley theory, anthropomorphic objects (whether robots or dolls) are sufficiently realistic that humans will have an instinctive sense of weirdness and disgust.
For example, in the Korean horror film [The Humanoid Master] , the dolls are the same as the real people, and the setting of the evil spirits attached to them makes people shiver from a distance.
In addition to the uncanny valley, there are countless terrifying rumors about dolls in reality.
In 1970, Connecticut, United States, a woman bought a doll as a gift on her daughter's birthday, but found that something was wrong a few days after the purchase.
When people are not at home, the doll often moves on its own, initially just on the bed, and later from room to room.
This is not the end, he can also write. It is said that one day the mother and daughter saw the blood that was born out of thin air on the baby's face, and finally couldn't hold back their breath and invited a psychic.
After a while, the medium claimed that the doll contained the soul of a little girl named Annabelle Higgins who died at the age of seven .
And the doll is the famous ghost doll Annabelle.
In 2013, Wen Ziren put it on the screen and became the box office champion of the horror film [The Conjuring] in the same year .
Of course, scaring dolls has always been Wen Ziren's forte.
In his early years , he created Billy Doll in the [Chainsaw] series , and when he said "I want to play a game", it was as scary as those tons of blood.
It is also Billy Doll. In 2007, he took inspiration from the doll's debut on the screen as a ventriloquist puppet, and filmed [Dead Silence] , reviving the doll horror that had been silent on the screen for a long time.
In Florida, there is also a real ghost doll, Robert, who is the prototype of another classic ghost doll image on the screen, "Chucky".
Robert doesn't kill people, but Chaji in [Ghost Baby Returning to the Soul] is much more fierce, and the murderer's soul is attached to it, and he kills people without mercy.
Fortunately, in [Nightmare Doll House], the doll is just the background, and there is no storm, but the movie is still full of weirdness, enough to see the horror of the doll.
After all, it is a doll that has been born for more than 4,000 years. This pile of non-living bodies that you like is made up of, before eternity, what kind of emotion will be placed by which dead soul?
Doll, doll, charming and dangerous, this moment is soft, and the next second will kill you.
