Write it on the front: "A Beijing boy who has not seen the world very much, writing nonsense to everyone who has seen the world."
First of all, let’s talk about my state when watching this movie. I am not a horror movie lover, and I don’t watch horror movies very much. This time I watched it purely to test my tolerance for horror movies. While watching, in order to render the environment and fully immerse it, I turned off the lights, muted the phone, and drew the curtains. In addition, Qiao Zi is at home alone, and has two very noisy cats. The black one especially likes to jump on me without a word. With such a privileged condition, I can live typing without having a heart attack or anything. It is really Amitabha Buddha.
Then I will talk about the starting point of this film review. There are many political and ironic factors in "Kunchiyan", but these are not in the scope of my review. We only start with the word "horror movie". A good horror movie should do everything possible to "scare you to death". Of course, there are elegant methods in these methods, such as the deep space closure of "Alien", the fatal mutation of "Resident Evil" and the changes of "Ghost Mirror" Unpredictable, including the vulgar "suddenly come out to scare you" and "actually scary people". The elegant ones make people hooked after reading them, and the vulgar ones make people feel like they are going to send a blade after watching them. They have different techniques and different commentary styles.
So, from such a point of view, "Kunchiyan" should be regarded as a pretty good horror movie of "you can't scare you to death". There is no malicious intention to create coincidences and mental retardation plots in the whole film. Brother's hands-on part is not counted, and it is not scary), completely using the plot and environment to create a terrifying atmosphere. Using such a method, not to mention whether it is enough to scare most people who are more daring than me, the horror is pure in nature and not contrived. This is quite worthy of recognition, and it is also worth learning from domestic directors.
Let's talk about the advantages of the horror elements of "Kunchiyan":
1. Why hit the ghost: The human and horror elements are just frontal, either it is profitable, or it is really impossible to escape, or the ghost will not let you out. "Kunchiyan" combines the reasons for death, fame and fortune, and ghost environment. It will not make the audience question the core logic and motivation of "hitting ghosts", and it will not make people think about these irrelevant things in the play. thing.
2. Heart-warming ghosts can also kill you: As mentioned earlier, vulgar horrors often make raids, scaring you out of the urine without reasoning. "Kunchiyan" doesn't seem to like this kind of horror tactics very much. The door of the dean's office and the strange noises at the beginning must be done to stimulate the audience's nerves. The film explained to us a better way, slowly using indescribable associations and sets to create a terrifying atmosphere, instead of suddenly killing a mop leader or a bat, it makes you even more unable to release the fear in your heart, this way The "roller coaster" movie viewing is fascinating enough!
3. The use of horror elements in the film is what impresses me the most. The ghosts in the cat's eyes, the 402 that can't be opened, white underwear, dead chickens and other elements, although the design is not exquisite and attractive, but the most important thing is that the whole film Only used it once! The advantage of this is not only that it will not feel repetitive, but more importantly, you never know when these things will "resurrection" again and run out to you all at once.
Talk about the shortcomings and room for improvement of "Kunchiyan":
1. In order to give the audience a greater sense of impact when the horror comes, the film begins by wrapping a lot of playful and entertaining experiences of the expedition team, trying to use the relaxation of ordinary life and the tension after entering Kunchiyan to form a contrast. However, I personally feel that the time is too long, but people's expectations have been discounted, resulting in a feeling of weakness.
2. In the early stage, the team members introduced the background information when laying the groundwork. I don't know if it was a problem with the content or the environment. . .
In 3.402, when the three of them gathered to die, one man and one woman who left first used the same method, which was too sloppy. If you can kill one by one with some contagion similar to the feeling in zombie movies, the sense of horror and despair may be better.
4. It is also 402. The captain died too easily, and it was a bit unfinished. It wasted so much foreshadowing in the front. It should be tortured, and there will be another small climax. And the shape of the female ghost (let's think it's the dean for the time being) doesn't seem to be attentive. I have already forgotten what the female ghost looks like because of my face blindness.
After the praise and criticism, I talked about my feelings. I think my courage is not bad. After all, I was the master who watched four "Chainsaw" in a row with a blood-red egg and tomato rice bowl, and I couldn't scare me. But after watching "Kunchiyan", I have to say, "Mom, I was wrong." If I give the movie a 6, I can only give my courage a 4. Why? I have to rest every few minutes for fear of dying, man? run run run. . .
