The above may be the source of my own horror, and it can also be used as a substitute for the psychological fear flow in Japan, South Korea and Thailand and the bloody limb flow in Europe and the United States.
This should be the difference between the East and the West. Westerners firmly believe in the doomsday judgment, God will wash the bottom, the good will be in heaven, and the evil will be in hell. Orientals don't care what you were like when you were alive, if you have a date or not, you'll be thrown into hell first, and then you will be dispatched in a unified manner. In reality, this management model has been substituted into the state machine, and there is a long-standing tradition of "killing power sticks"; most of the horrors of Westerners are zombies, murderers, messengers of hell, etc. I will take you to an unfamiliar place first, or you Throw yourself into the net, then nurture it in a greenhouse, and slowly torment; the nightmare of the Easterners is the ghosts, the eroticism, who suddenly intrudes in the environment you are most familiar with, making you feel that the things you are most familiar with and close to are unreliable; the Westerners are According to the original sin, a reasonable coat was given to create terror, let alone killing you for no reason. Butterfly effect + "small universe" theory, in the final analysis, it makes sense to kill you. Yesterday, you kicked a stray dog at the door begging for food. You created the entire social environment to dislike this stray dog. Later, the stray dog ate the lifeblood of the homeless person, and the homeless person could only vent by killing you. Dongfang believes in the theory of cause and effect. If you masturbated before going to bed last night, your descendants will come back with thousands of troops in your dream.
Therefore, it can be seen that the horrors created by the Westerners have a high fatality rate and belong to precision strikes, as long as they are within the attack range, haunted houses, cannibal territories, etc. Basically, they won't miss, but they won't fight across regions; the horrors created by the Orientals are very wide, belonging to guerrillas, resentment, spirits, etc., not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves. Many times it is the victim who tortures himself. It can be seen that the mass base of the guerrillas is better, and the special forces are a legend.
Let's talk about Thailand. Thailand has been very strong in recent years. "Ghost Shadow", "Ghost Dismemberment", "Evil Fall"... have a great trend of catching up with Japan. Thailand itself is also a very strange country. It is said that Thais will carefully clean up their broken hair after a haircut; At that time, there was also a legend that "Brother" committed suicide because the filming of "Alien Dimension" was too deep into the play, and he went to Thailand to find the famous "White Dragon King" to solve it. From this point of view, Thailand is really a hotbed of terror.
I always feel that "Ghost 4 Abuse" is another masterpiece of brain-damage that translated the name of "XX General Mobilization" when it was introduced in China. "The Crossroads of Death" is a good title, it is very oriental in the sense of fate and cause and effect. Five stars are given because of the production lineup of the original cast of "Ghost Shadow", "Conjoined Yin" and "Ghost Dismemberment". The production level may not have reached the peak, but for the production team of horror films, it is difficult to assemble such a good team. lineup. 4 short films, from narrative techniques, cult style, dark humor to claustrophobic spaces, all covered, very classic Thai features. It is also mixed with some ingenuity, Thai people's understanding of horror films. For example, the gag in "The Middleman" reminds me of a Hong Kong funny ghost film, and it is also a reflection on the Hong Kong horror film itself: it seems that Gu Tianle has yin and yang eyes, and then the famous "goddess" ghosts and gods appeared. Gu Tianle said, "Auntie, I already know you are a ghost, so there is no need to play cyan light and play ghost calls as soon as you appear. The "witch" immediately returned to normal, and said very professionally, this is the only effect.
Then I talk about the handling of the four ghosts encountered in the film "Death Crossroads":
"Lonely": the cottage "Ghost Calling", the way to deal with the male ghost is to call the communication company and say that he wants to call his own man. A friend's number applies for this business, that business... When it's done, it won't have time to "letter harass" you, and can only keep receiving business text messages from the communication company.
"Death Reminder": It's also a good way to pick your eyes at the end of the film, and break your tail to survive. But why not dress up as a fat pig and wear a toad mirror. When it wants to show you the reminder, it can only be seen by itself through the reflection of the toad mirror.
"The Middleman": Originally, I was thinking about how they would solve the problem of who sleeps in the middle. Do they want to stack Arhats? It turned out that the screenwriter was more talented, and the equilateral triangle was solved. In order not to let A continue to be haunted by ghosts, just sleep with A's corpse in a row, it is better than being chased by ghosts, maybe A's ghost will think that he is dreaming when he sees his body still in the tent.
"Flight 224": The way to deal with that vomit maniac is to use nausea to control nausea. If you don't vomit, I will hold back the nausea and eat all your vomit. The more I eat, the more nauseated you become, and the more you vomit me Eat more.
