Genre characteristics of Polanski's apartment thriller
Doris 2021-12-22 08:01:12
Apartment thrillers, looking at "Cold-Blooded Horror", "Weird Tenant", and "Rosemary's Baby" will find that these three-step films are very similar in some respects. The protagonist is on the edge of depression, restlessness, and nervousness, and will doubt the people around her. For the protagonist, she (he) seems to be living in a huge trap woven by everyone around her, no matter how hard she tries, she can’t Break free. The protagonist will inexplicably fall into a nightmare or have hallucinations. The content of his dreams and hallucinations has a strong surreal color. There are many arms stretched out from the wall, the ground suddenly split, the person who accidentally breaks in, the hideous face, the face of the devil. ·· ···
