Kidnapping complex

As a movie about "contacting" aliens, it wasn't until forty minutes (40mins/95mins) that the word kidnapping was proposed by the female pig. It is also very interesting. When the female pig raised the possibility of kidnapping the male pig, she specifically emphasized the difference between abduction and kidnapping. The former is a special point... I just smiled at that time.
The Fourth Kind, I don’t know if you have realized that the title actually omitted a few words-if you are aware, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have a lot of knowledge. The most reliable explanation is your short UFO in the 1990s in our country. The tide left God for a while. At that time I bought a book myself, and on the cover it wrote what the first type of contact was, what was the second type of contact, what was the third type of contact, and the notorious fourth type of contact. This book was also borrowed by my math teacher. I was in elementary school at that time.
Well, what is omitted is "of encounter". For people who have a kidnapping complex, contact is definitely a word with special meaning.
The film about "contact" has basically formed two extremes. One is "The Third Type of Contact", which is filmed in an epic style, and the realm of thought is very high. One is the x-file. The perspective is very close to the people. People who like it will laugh wildly and shout fucken crap when they see it (such as me). In the final analysis, although the latter is well-known for its wide range of subjects, a considerable part of it is actually about kidnapping and all the stories of people who have a kidnapping complex.
What kind of person can be called a kidnapping complex? Max is a typical kidnapping geek-this person is indeed enough to describe it as a geek-he was tied countless times and he could tell a story to Mulder with a smiley face, and he died in the process of kidnapping (but he was killed by humans). The air force was wronged), and a very touching videotape was left. In fact, if you look more, you will find that most of the kidnappings of geek are people with low social status and people who are struggling for life. Maybe it's because people with high social status can't just say these stories that most people think are very craps. Maybe it's that kidnapping stories are really a bunch of crapps. The abductees just want to make a profit. Who knows?
There are too many loops in the x file above, but the reason is that this movie is actually very similar to the x file.
First, the background. The isolated bird does not shit and slaps a big place to unfold a very crap story. In fact, there are many examples of this style. The American gods are also typical ones. There is also Nolan’s insomnia (this is also Alaska which looks so kind). Of course, a city can be considered-but I found that I like this style. , Look at a "city" with a population of 3,500. It is simply a portrayal of a hen and dog. The kidnapper who hijacked his wife and children yelled at the name of the person he wanted to see, and the sheriff naturally called the female pig. , There is no such thing as "what, oh, look up who XXX is..." in big cities. This kind of little ghost place where everyone looks up and sees their heads down, and the road is not connected to the outside world. Everyone you know is either crazy or dead or tied up to see people or dead bodies. It's too exciting! ···There are too many such big backgrounds in the x file. Some are air force test pilot towns, some are primitive religious towns, some are superhuman towns, some are vampire towns, and some are UFO's favorite towns. Let's talk about it later.
The second point is the specific scenario. Perhaps the most famous specific scene of the X-Files is the small town in Oregon, the place where all the stories begin, the place where the madman Mulder and Scully lost time in the first investigation, and it is also the place where all the stories end. The road that all x-philes will never forget is narrow, with tall and thin trees on both sides, where Mulder sprayed a big ugly X, and all the x-philes are in the Fourth Kind After seeing Nome's punctual forest trail, it will ignite... they are just carved out of a mold! There is a scene in the film, the cyan sky and the dark green jungle are swaying in the cloudy wind. This is already a naked reference in my opinion-non-x-philes, please look at my profile picture, taken from the man posted on the x-file A poster in the pig's office, and the aforementioned scenery here is the lower part of the second version of this poster, especially the color tone, which is exactly the same!
The third point is that aliens who are sprayed do not show their faces. Back then, the X-Files was that aliens rarely revealed their true appearances and started the kidnapping series Misty faction. It is understandable that this film used this method. But I think any hardcore kidnapping plot enthusiast will see the footage recorded by the police car video recorder inevitably burst into flames: the broken plate that is silent for just a second and a half is too TMcrap too TM! The rarely seen fuzzy alien image in the film even inherits the mantle of x-files, the fuzzy outline of the backlit perspective, and the dwarf form. By the way, I thought the subjective shot of the female pig in the middle was taken from the perspective of an alien, but then I was relieved when I saw him looking at the automatically opened door in fear. In fact, the doorknob opens automatically (yes, the door must be opened without a bang, there must be a process of slowly opening the doorknob). The opening of the rear door is also an overuse of the x-files. The processing of obscuration is a higher level of terror creation. After all, the fear of human beings largely comes from ignorance. If the ghost world and the human world are like the relationship between countries, who would be so afraid of ghosts? For a specific group of people, the distorted (pseudo) documentary pictures are more imaginative than the poor or sophisticated 3D models, and the freeze-frame pictures where some people will laugh, if you were able to see it at the time, you would be willing to recall it later, Maybe there will be a sudden chill in your mind, and a thin layer of sweat will appear on your feet, making you shrunk under the covers and dare not move... The
fourth point is to blur the ending. The x file never draws a conclusion, sometimes it directly gives you contradictory conclusions. This is also where it makes people think that it is crap-don't you give me an explanation, do you want to create a vague atmosphere or do you just want to be lazy and don't want to seriously drill the script? To be honest, this is also the reason why a lot of people spray this film. After all, everything is still in the mist. End credits are also a hodgepodge of irresponsible recordings. Eh ???
disorderly Having said that, to sum up this movie is perfect all the essence and heritage of fur x files, so I'm porridge
- ---------------
on , This sentence should be highlighted, this film is recommended to all those who love x file fan.
―――――――――――――――
-Seven years after the end of 200 episodes, all x-philes waited for a real defective product-I want to believe (the title really tainted this sentence), and then we met The Fourth Kind.
Back to the topic In fact, the "kidnapping complex" in here is also divided into two categories, one is the believer/abductee who really takes this seriously, and the other is the remaining agnostic/abductee lovers. The latter may have been/is fascinated by the "writings" of supernatural phenomena, or have been/is fascinated by supernatural works of literature and art-especially like me who watched it and shouted crap while dancing.
To put it bluntly, this is a question of believing or not. The film deliberately emphasized what an abductee said "he believes what he saw". Once a person talked to me about supernatural phenomena. He seemed to believe these things. After I said that I was an agnostic and only believed what he saw. Emphasize "you will see what you believe". Yeah, then I said I had watched the 200 episodes of the x-files, and then I said I was a science fiction fan. He was very stubborn and said that you just thought you were a fan of science fiction, even though the first half of my sentence was not supporting the second half-and this is in contrast to his point of view.
No matter what others say, believe and see will always be a tangled relationship. If you don't believe it, think about it. For example, talk about some of my own "wonders" about kidnapping. In the "present ongoing tense" of your life, you have a real-time perception of what happened every second, and in the next second, you will turn what happened in the previous second into memory. Based on the settings of almost all kidnapping plots, aliens will erase your memory after they bind you. Since real-time perception becomes memory in an instant, and memory can be manipulated by aliens, how can you be sure that you were not kidnapped a second before? (Memory manipulation can also be seen in a movie called Dark City, another cultSF···)
Finally, quote a short comment on Tomato.com: "Where is Fox Mulder when you need him?" It makes sense. I watched Paranormal Activity in the cinema one night (Damn, this title is actually the inscription on the opening screen of the 200th episode of the x file. ··) and the Fourth Kind. If you can see Mulder's innocent eyes in the end, I think I will sleep more securely. And he did not appear, maybe it is the reason why the fourth category is so low on so many websites.
