At this time, they only have seven days to survive. What kind of amazing secrets will they face? Can they uncover the mystery of the video in the limited seven days...?
When I watched this film, I just graduated and went to work. I also wanted to watch it when I heard it was terrible. Perhaps people are very curious and impulsive about dangerous things. At that time, my friends and I liked it. Watching horror movies, now think about the courage at that time, let alone watch it actively, even if you accidentally see it while watching TV, you have to change the channel immediately. Maybe it was at that time to watch movies like "Midnight Ring". Frightened, now I am afraid to avoid horror movies. I am really ignorant and fearless, and I will be honest when I know it. After watching the movie that time, I didn’t feel much at first, because there weren’t too many horrible scenes in the movie. I still thought about what was terrible about it, but the more I thought about it, the more I felt scared, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that there was something around me. , To the point of tossing and turning, and having trouble sleeping, only then did I appreciate the terrible part of the movie. You must know that at that time I was working in a field and lived in a single dormitory alone at night. There were not many living people in the whole building (of course not Dead), that kind of horror is really unbearable. It is from that time that the rejection of horror movies, especially Japanese horror movies, is not afraid of watching them, but afraid of thinking after watching them.
In fact, the real scary part of this film lies in this-it makes you think. People’s imagination is endless and can bring a huge psychological impact to oneself. "Midnight Ring" takes advantage of this. The whole film adds fatalistic predictions in a repressive way, constantly giving people psychological hints. , Devil is born from the heart, Sadako's fear is no longer in its form but in your imagination of her. The face covered by long hair is the scariest face. If you don't see what is behind that long hair, you will imagine it as terrible. As the saying goes, "A thousand people who read the Red Mansion will have a thousand images of Sister Lin." We will imagine the beauty in literary works as the most beautiful, and the terrible as the most terrifying. Although Sadako finally revealed the true face of Lushan, the unfinished ending seems to tell us viciously: It's not that simple, then think about it! Then have nightmares! The seven-day horror prediction composed of video tapes, telephones, mirrors, wells and other objects in the film emphasizes the viewer’s self-psychological suggestion: ghosts not only exist but also in your consciousness, like a shadow, which is really a horror movie. A kind of high state, leading the audience into the vicious circle of frightening themselves, with endless aftertastes and lingering ghosts.
We can say that Japan is a perverted nation, but we also have to admire that the perverted state of Ya’s is very high. Take horror films, it is absolutely creepy, gray sky, gray city, hollow eyes, and destiny. His prophecy, the frightened and deformed face, coupled with the ubiquitous psychological cues, make people completely desperate, resulting in complete fear. This kind of film represented by "Midnight Ring" captures the original fear of people's heart-fear of the unknown, and constantly hints at them, making people unable to extricate themselves, plus the cold and biting Beijing music, although there is not much The terrible scenes of the scene, but it is enough to cause strong psychological pressure. These can be said to be the factors that contributed to the success of Japanese horror films, and they are also the reasons why Hollywood is paying attention and learning. Compared with Hollywood's purely direct performance of bloody pictures and cruel murderous scenes, this kind of psychological horror film is better and more frightening. And those films that use the most intuitive pictures to stimulate the viewers, to be precise, are not horrible, but disgusting; they don't make us sleepless after watching them, but can't eat.
But in any case, watching too many horror movies is no good, whether it’s not sleeping or eating, it’s a torture to yourself, so in the end I advise everyone to watch less, there are more good movies, don’t always think about it. Seek excitement.
