The more this film looks, the better it looks. What's the matter!
When "Sadako VS Gaya" came out, the popularity of the curse and the midnight bell actually faded away. When promoting, they even used cute weapons and posted some spoofed daily photos on Instagram. But this does not constitute a large-scale popularity, so I will watch this film, either a diehard fan of the two works, or a passerby fan of the two works, or I just have nothing to search for resources and watch it casually. Those who watched it just missed a part of the potential viewing group that [REDACTED] I think[/ REMOVED] this film should try to win over: people who are interested in weird stories.
Let's start with the general story of the film. At the beginning of the film, one person is KOed first, and Sister Sadako wins with one blood. Then there's a shot of two girls -- Natsumi and Yuri -- taking a nap in class and deserting. I don't know what department they chose, what class they took (probably folklore research?), anyway, a teacher named Mori Shige in the class was teaching all the students who were making soy sauce a few "people" in Japan. Name "weird talk:
Rippled Girl: A humanoid monster that swept the entire Japanese campus overnight in Showa 54 (actually it took 5-6 months, probably between spring and summer), wearing a long trench coat, shawl hair, beautiful eyes but crazy eyes, wearing a huge A mask, or put his hands in his pockets, or hide a kitchen knife or scissors with his hands behind his back, hiding at the school gate or on a path leading to the school, waiting for an opportunity to catch the lone child and ask her if she is beautiful. If the child says that he is not beautiful, he will be killed by cutting his neck (or cutting off his nose). If the child says he is beautiful, the woman with the cut will take off the mask, so that the other party can see her mouth that is cut under the ear, and ask again that I am still beautiful. And cut the other person's mouth below the ear as well. The reasons for the formation are one of human beings who have lost their minds due to plastic surgery failure, one of human beings or monsters possessed by dog gods, one said to be an impure spirit incarnated by a resentful spirit who has failed plastic surgery or was bullied by irresponsible doctors. Expulsion methods include waxing (or putting wax on your own head), coconut sugar, and running away. Usually can't run. Hanako in the toilet: One of Japan's classic school monsters, in a compartment of the toilet that cannot be opened, there is a girl named Hanako who wears a red suspender skirt and has short hair with a doll's head. Every school's Hanako has its own legend of birth. The solution is probably not to go to the toilet in the middle of the night to find Hanako. Some schools have a series of prohibited items in the toilet to prevent students from encountering Hanako. Generally speaking, they will not die if they do not die. Hanako has a distinction between evil spirits and good spirits, and in some schools, Hanako-san is the incarnation of protecting children.
Red cloak: It is also one of the classic Japanese school weird stories. The scene that appears is also the toilet. The difference from Hanako is probably the difference between elementary school and middle school and the red cloak will appear more in the men's toilet. (Monsters with strong domain awareness.) There are many kinds of strange stories about red capes. The most classic is probably when you hear a knock on the door when you go to the toilet at night, and then you are asked if you want a red cape. If you answer, you will be stripped. The skin of the lower back, or the neck is separated, or it is stabbed from behind by a great sword that falls from the sky, like a red cloak. The solution is to ignore him and let him walk away in a fuss or angry way into the toilet to scare you to death. Later, there was a version that added a cyan cloak and a red cloak to let you choose, which is to drain the blood and die. This version is slowly becoming more famous than the previous version, because it's dead anyway. The reason for this strange talk should be that a murderer's method of committing a crime in a certain place at that time was amplified in the rumor.
The boy under the bed: Although it is also very classic in Japan, it may be less heard in China, and more of it is the version passed down from Europe and the United States. A girl went to a friend's house for the night, and suddenly said in the middle of the night that she wanted to eat ice cream, popcorn, roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted chicken, roasted goose, braised pig, braised duck, sauce, chicken, bacon, pine flower, small belly, assorted Supaner, etc., and dragged her friend to the convenience store downstairs , and then told her friend that there was a man with a sickle under her bed who was going to kill her. Scythe is standard. There is a follow-up after it spreads to China, and I won't talk about this follow-up involving a certain case. The solution is to not use a bed that can hide people underneath.
The Cursed Home and the Cursed Videotape: It is the videotape of the hut of Gaya and Sadako. Not to mention that it's just to bring out the theme of the story (although it is), this plot gives Kanako and Sadako a whole new definition: the strange talk about monsters.
Then God knows why I watched Sister Sadako's video and then God knows why she was possessed and then KO'ed and then God knows why there is another girl who can only scream and then God knows why they formed a group to exorcise the ghosts. Let's try to say a word After all, this kind of spoiler is not the point and there is no need to elaborate.
In fact, it is impossible to become a geeky monster without accumulating rumors for a long time.
The source of Gamako is the grudge, from the film of Shimizu Tsong, and later adapted into a novel by Oishi Kei. Strictly speaking, the spread of time is not widespread. Due to the limitations of the carrier, the expansion of rumors cannot be further spread. The scene that appears is a haunted house, and the standard is Gut Yin and Xiao Junxiong (…). Not to mention sister Sadako, the source is "Midnight Bell" by Suzuki Koji. Students who have read it know that this is a sci-fi work, and the movie version turned Sister Sadako into one of the most frightening Japanese ghosts. The scene that appears is the ancient well and the TV, and the standard is the videotape and the telephone.
In the movie, the two "impossible female ghosts" are given the definition of "weird female ghosts", so in the movie, the combat power of the two sisters is simply overwhelming. A layman might just watch it, but anyone who has studied weird stories should understand how incredible the power of "yokai who survive and grow stronger through rumors and fears in people's hearts" can go berserk.
Then let's take a look at the director and screenwriter of this film, Mr. Akashi Shiraishi.
Shiraishi-san (don't tell me his surname is Shiraishi Akira!) really loves Japanese weird stories. In the list of his works that can still be circulated, weird stories account for 96.77%. The data is made up by me, but the share of weird stories is absolute. Each work has a very distinctive feature: it is reasonable and well-founded, but it is full of grooves.
This is why, in addition to popular science, most of the weird stories tend to be funny and attract more attention. The dramatic plot of the strange talk itself cannot be explained in a serious way. Most of the ways to eliminate the strange talk are rumors. Ease of operation is the foundation. express in a forceful way.
The deeper reason comes from the formative nature of urban myths: cases and rumors. The soul bound by the tragic and desolate case has become a monster in the rumors spread by word of mouth, and then the existence of the ghost story is to let people remember this monster, remember this case, and remember that someone once was so sad because of such a sad thing. things die. But modern people are reluctant to remember them, so urban weird stories have become pastimes and consumption, and more on the screen is just for viewers to seek excitement, the stories behind them, they don't care.
Let's put it this way, during the viewing process, did anyone think about the origin of the tragic deaths of Gaya and Toshio, and did anyone remember that Sadako was just a little girl who was innocently thrown into the well? No, even the director didn't want to highlight such a thing, so he directly gave the two little sisters the identities of monsters. The resentment and killing were only because they were monsters, and the suppression was only because they wanted to kill people.
The most exciting part of this movie is the part where Kanako and Sadako merge at the end. The indescribable form and the inestimable combat power (the liquid spilled when they fit together can instantly turn the cynical spirit remover Gege into two halves), but it is quite a bit like the innocent little daughter framed by Tomoe in Junji Ito’s writing— - (Pay attention to eye protection)
I have a comment on this: Enough punk!
Then sister Gaya and sister Sadako fit together. In fact, the combat power of the body of resentment will not be so high, but there is a silly and sweet Xiao Youli sauce in the well as a sacrifice, and with the help of the human body, the combat power increases biubiubiu.
In the Easter egg at the end of the credits, it is obvious that the combination of Gamako and Sadako has become a brand-new monster with various characteristics of Gamako and Sadako at the same time.
Emmmm...this is basically impossible. I could write a thesis saying it's basically impossible. But that Easter egg was pretty scary to watch alone in the middle of the night.
Finish work. I don't even know what I'm talking about in this review.
Ah, by the way, some people say that they are waiting for "Fujiang VS Rift Girl" - this is also unlikely, the carrier is different, the Rift Girl has shortcomings, this defect can remove the spirit, purify her, and scare her away, Fujiang, It seems that there will be no shortcomings to defeat for a while. So it's not as good as: Fujiang VS head balloon.
Jason VS Freddy is there.
Freddy's talkative + Jason's mouth is so cute that it explodes.
Jason VS human skin face is also there.
Not as cute as VS Freddy.
So sure enough, Freddy is the general CP item.
