This year, another "Ghost Baby Resurrection" was released. Since its birth in 1988, Chucky is an ugly and scary doll. The audience can say that watching him thrive, and then get married and have children. Until the seventh part of the Ghost Baby series in 2017, the word-of-mouth hit the street and the audience no longer Think this ugly doll needs to continue!
In order to respond to the call of the new era, the new version of "Ghost Baby Resurrection" has a facelift and re-launched, but I think the first reaction of more viewers should be:
Again ???
But if you look closely, although Chucky is still the Chucky, the appearance of the new version of Chucky has been changed again. If I don't understand it, I guess I thought it was a copy of a brand new ghost baby in which country.
In fact, the 2019 "Ghost Baby" has not been labeled as a sequel, that is to say, this is an IP remake of "Ghost Baby". Is the plot still a superstition of so-called murderous demon possession? Not at all, the new "Ghost Baby" even the core of the story is very characteristic of the times.
------ Spoiler dividing line ------
In 2019, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the Internet of Everything, these concepts that existed in sci-fi stories in the past, are nothing new today.
The protagonist is still the stinky doll, but this time Chucky is renamed Buddi. Buddi is an artificial intelligence doll produced by a technology company called Kaslan. Like all current technology companies, Caslan strives to promote their Internet of Things technology to all mankind. As long as you have a complete set of Caslan's full line of smart products, you will have a new intelligent and convenient life.
In order to make the machine closer to the human symbol, they developed this robot toy called Buddi as a control terminal under the artificial intelligence ecology. Buddi can not only be used as a smart toy to accompany children to play, but also can control all electrical appliances in the home through command linkage, help you realize remote monitoring, call driverless cars, etc. More importantly, he will learn quickly according to the instructions you enter and get to know you better.
Okay, the advertisement is over, and we'll see how the Buddi user died.
The root of the evil in the old version is the doll possessed by the murderer, this time it is from the source of the doll's production line. In the assembly line workshop where Buddi was produced in Vietnam, a worker was angrily removed all the safety agreements in the toy chip due to a dispute with the factory supervisor. After all the programs that control the robot's behavior have been removed, it means that the doll will not be controlled in any way, paving the way for the terrorist violence in the future.
The trigger that opened the magic box of the doll's assault was a group of low-level groups in society—middle-and-lower-class children who lacked control.
Single-parent family child Andy has a mother who works as an after-sales service in a toy hypermarket. Since he cannot be with him from busy work, Andy hopes that this novel and interesting artificial intelligence toy can be used as a playmate in a boring life. It's not dead, just this Buddi with disordered procedures was picked up by Andy's mother and taken home when it was ready to be destroyed after sale.
It is simply "made in heaven" for an uncontrolled doll to run into a working-class child who does not care about it. In addition to trying to learn to be close to his owner Andy and learning Andy's daily behavior, Buddi also accompanies Andy and patiently listens to Andy's complaints about his mother and boyfriend.
When Andy closed the door and cursed his mother's new boyfriend with angry words, and when he brought Buddi and a group of bear kids to watch "Chainsaw Massacre" hilariously, all the information was interpreted by Buddi's core program as: humans like violence and kill people. Make them happy.
It wasn't until Andy's mother's boyfriend was killed by Buddi and made a human skin watermelon as a gift for Andy, that the group of children really realized that this crazy baby had transformed from their superficial words into action. At this time, you can only choose to stop loss immediately. It wasn't until Buddi realized Andy's betrayal that he began to retaliate against humans, which also became the stem of the ecological system killing corps.
It may be that the old version of the superstitious doctrine of the possession of gods and ghosts has said too much, and people have lost interest. The new version puts on the cloak of science and technology to start again, using the uncontrollable technology to show horror, and the artificial intelligence technology has been maturely used in real life, and the sense of substitution of the story is more direct.
As the operating terminal of a set of intelligent systems, Buddi controls all of Caslan’s machines to kill people, such as smart homes and driverless cars, but these are the usual details of American horror movies. I don’t have some nonsensical parts. More narrative.
As the creator of machines, human beings always want to empower machines from the perspective of God. But the darkness and violence lurking in human hearts are also inadvertently revealed. When the heart that is no longer controlled is inserted in the machine, it may be the most fearful moment for people to think about it.
Judging from the end of the movie, the burning incense of "The Ghost Baby" was successfully renewed. The smelly baby is really lingering!
