Then Wen Ziren's horror films are immersive horrors. Unbreakable. The purpose of ghosts is very clear: to want your body and to want you to suffer.
It doesn't end with the protagonist moving house and finding a psychic to exorcise the ghost. Are only people allowed to have a way, not a ghost to have a way?
In this film, Wen Ziren explained the contradiction between man and ghost at the beginning, and the focus of the whole work immediately shifted to let you experience the fear of the protagonist! helpless! pain! Let you experience the insignificance of human beings!
(That's right, Wen Ziren doesn't want to solve the problem of what to do with ghosts. He is here to show how terrible ghosts are.)
Immersive is a summary made up by myself, which means that the protagonist is immersed in this terrible They couldn't extricate themselves in the encounter, and the audience was largely in sync with them (Fast and Furious 7 also used this trick, the camera followed the characters, and I won't repeat the analysis).
Here is an example that scared my hands and feet soft: the ghost child who changed the music.
It's this little kid, remember what he's wearing.
In fact, about 20 seconds ago, you, as an audience, had already seen him.
did you see? On the left hand side of the heroine, the person facing the wall.
how about it? Anyway, when I noticed it, I was so scared that my hands and feet went weak, and I didn't have the guts to continue watching.
It's haunted, ghosts are everywhere.
This is what Wen Ziren wants to show the audience, very pure and very technical.
Because the audience is immersed in the feelings of the protagonist, they will also have a deeper feeling for the plot of the story.
Watching other horror movies feels like "watching a ghost story", watching someone else's story.
But watching Wen Ziren's horror films, I often feel that I have entered the subjective perspective of the protagonist, like wearing a VR device, unable to extricate myself.
Wen Ziren is really a master! ! ! ! (brain powder face)
I haven't found any other details because I haven't dared to read them again. If you find out, please leave me a message, and let's be better frightened by Wen Ziren together! (wrong)
ps why he started hehe in the conjuring series, I haven't figured it out yet, maybe it needs a different tone based on the real story. After all, it doesn't matter if the audience is tortured by fictional ghosts. When they hear that real ghosts have tortured people to death, they will be very desperate...
