Americans love Lanlan Road a lot, and there must be Lanlan Road in the haunted house culture.
Some pseudo-documentary horror films shake too much in pursuit of realism, but it is really not a good experience for viewers. This film is still very stable in terms of shooting.
European and American horror films are generally related to religions, cults, and demons. Although the plots are different, they can all point to a place "hell" in the end. I won't say much about the scenes of hell, and the plot of the film should be in hell mode. Projecting into reality and performing it again in reality, so it should be understandable that blood is often sprinkled in European and American horror movies. This is their characteristic, and it is different from Japan and South Korea. However, because this movie is a pseudo-record, we all know that the occurrence of supernatural events will cause fluctuations in the surrounding magnetic field. It is impossible for your shooting equipment to take a clear picture, so this movie is not scary even if there is no bloody picture.
Returning to the topic, the cause was the fire in the haunted house on the night of Halloween. After the incident, the survivors were all asked to remain silent, but the more they asked, the more they would rebound. Some good people began to investigate. First, a reporter entered the scene and took some photos. Is it a fire, why is there blood everywhere? Another person uploaded a 911 recording, and finally the only surviving staff member, Sara, found the reporter, took out a videotape and started flashbacks. The beginning of the filming is really clear and clear, like a succinct story.
Everyone in the play is madly setting up flags, and there are hints everywhere in the movie. Some horror movies are obscure. This one is very simple. The director told you directly. The haunted hotel built by a group of people was originally called "abaddon hotel". Some people still don't understand it, and the director is very considerate to find someone to explain to the audience. A short summary is that abaddon is the devil in hell. It is mentioned in the Bible. In Judaism, it means "the tomb, the underworld". Moreover, the history of this hotel is also very dark. The people who live in it can't die well. It happened a few decades ago. Now there are people who want to move in and are planning to open on Halloween night. Are you familiar with it? Sacrifice mode is on. As an aside, in European and American movies, small towns are often places where strange incidents occur. Some people do evil in groups, and some use people to make sacrifices to evil spirits. The film will not expand without talking about small towns.
There is always someone in a team who is more sensitive than others. If this kind of person is not the protagonist, he will often be kicked out first, because it will destroy the "good thing" of others. In fact, everyone felt that something was wrong later, but decided to continue for the sake of money. The boss of the team probably relied on this time to make a return after the investment failed, and his partner also accompanies him to make a vote. After watching the second part, some people think that the owner may have signed an agreement with the original management staff of the hotel to build a hotel to attract a large number of people to sacrifice. I don’t agree with it. When they finally escaped, everyone did their due diligence to arrange for the visitors to escape. It can only be said that the danger is perceived but it is a fluke. After all, who knows this will happen. The movie went with the flow and ended with flashbacks after the Halloween night's footage was broadcast. (There is no need to watch the second film. I have a hunch that even if the first film of this type is good, the second film will become boring. After reading the evaluation, the guess is basically correct)
The reporter who interviewed sara, under the temptation of sara (actually because of his own curiosity), decided to take the photographer to the scene, which is really a meaningless death. Everyone in this team is dead and only sara came out intact and was able to bring the tape out in such a chaotic situation? Sara also told the female reporter that you can come to the C2 room to find me. When the reporter left, she went to the front desk of the hotel to ask about the C2 room, and the reply was that the hotel did not have C2 nor Sara. When the female reporter went to the 2nd floor of the scene, she found that there was actually a room called C2. The photographer advised her not to open the door, but the female reporter wanted to open it... Although I don't open the perspective of God, if there is such a person in reality, I will turn around immediately. Go, no, I won't go to this place together. The result of opening the door can be imagined, because Sara is already dead. According to abaddon, the C2 she is in is actually in hell. Opening the door can also be understood as a boundary being broken. Looking for a female reporter to lure her to the door, it is likely that the number of sacrifices that year was not enough, and she was selected just to get together.
The movie probably talks about how to design a haunted house, which is quite interesting. The haunted part is not scary but very reasonable. The curly-haired man will talk to the camera with his back to the door every time. You can see a female ghost coming in and out from the door. The curly-haired man will realize it later until he wakes up one day. I saw the female ghost sitting in his room and approaching him step by step, and his method was to hide under the covers, so of course he couldn't avoid the ghost. It may be naive, and when people are in a hurry, their brains may be blank for a moment and they will panic. The other person transferred with Lanlan Lu in his arms, turned around and found Lan Lanlu looking at him. Of course we knew there was a problem, but this person didn't know that he thought it was his friend's dress, so he wasn't afraid to go to his friend slowly. When my friend was sitting there, he realized that something was wrong, and ran back to watch the clown in a panic. This part is very real, although the camera shake is a little confusing. Including the girl who was finally hanged to perform a performance, she screamed and asked people around her to save her. "This is not part of the performance" is very immersive.
