This movie swept the box office when it was released in South Korea, and even won the number one player, which made me wonder where the goodness of this movie is~
Kunchiyan has no plot to speak of. It is probably about a team that specializes in live broadcasts of horror locations. In order to increase the click rate to earn huge advertising money, this time I decided to challenge a mental hospital in Kunchiyan. In order to strengthen the team's momentum and increase visibility, several volunteers were recruited to experience it together. Of course, since it is a horror film, the routine must be the miserable situation of the early stage of happiness and the later stage of slavery.
There is almost no puzzle-solving component in the plot. During the process of team members getting together to go to the destination, as well as a large number of online rumors, the origin of the mental hospital has been explained in detail. Why is there so much resentment here? It is purely a movie that starts to frighten a lot after the atmosphere is full. As for why the ghost in Room 402 is so fierce, it is understandable that there is not much explanation here. Anyway, it is left to the audience's imagination.
The presentation of the film is in multiple first-person perspectives, that is, each member wears two lenses that look at themselves and outside. The advantages of this shooting method, I have seen it in "The Catacombs", it is great to retain the first-person perspective At the same time, it avoids the unreasonableness of not putting down the camera, and at the same time, monitors are placed in various legendary horror places, which is equivalent to a third perspective. Present the details.
These are not the key points. I believe that what you want to see is, from my most objective point of view, is this film scary? I can’t deny that the first half of this film is quite hypnotic. Except for the handsome guys and beauties, I just watch these People meet each other happily, and then they go to the ghost hospital with a very fearless appearance, exploring the mental hospital where the scene is very scary but there is no ghost at all. However, this is a contrasting expression, which is to make the audience look down on it, and then scare you half to death, then it will be amazing.
The brilliance of the whole movie is almost in the last 20 minutes. It is a common ghost movie. Either it is not scary or it is a bad habit of a hundred ghosts walking at night. However, if it is scary enough, I will affirm it. This movie is scary in the last few scenes. The technique is quite novel, and the strength is sufficient. It returns to the strangeness brought by the atmosphere, and replaces the jumping fright and sudden loud sound effects that have been generally scorned by the audience. Through the timely presentation of supernatural phenomena and ghosts, I I think this performance is pretty good.
Since there are not many scary scenes in this film, but they are all the essence, I will not go into details. I can only tell you simply that you really need to be patient in the front, and there is no earlier stage to create the authenticity of the film, so that the audience will feel It seems that I was really watching a live webcast, and the fright that followed was able to set off bursts of climax, especially I have to praise the actress who played Charlotte in the play, her interpretation of fear is really true. It is the most eye-catching in this film. Compared with her, other people are simply dead fish.
But then again, did this movie scare me? Joke, of course not.
I'm not stubborn. Although I have a lot of experience in horror films, I am not completely immune. It is a pity that although this film emphasizes the fright of simulation in a unique way, it is a technical work after all. I forgot about it after passing it, and at the same time, because of the cover of the subject matter, the overly long presentation made me a little impatient. Finally, I almost reluctantly saw it and said, oh, these frightening techniques seem to be okay, yes, it is only So far it's ok.
Compared with this, it really makes me feel that it is an old Hong Kong film such as "Yin Yang Road" and "July Fourteen", which have a good plot and a good atmosphere. Arouse a long-lasting resonance, if it is not like the osmotic shock of "The Grudge" (the earliest version), which makes you feel like taking a bath and sleeping, Junxiong will suddenly come out to find you to play the nightmare
But I still have to say a fair word for this film. Watching this film in an environment where the surrounding is terribly dark and sound effects are also done is really a pretty good entertainment experience. Golden opportunity. Anyway, I probably won't do it a second time.
