Make a simple classification of horror films in advance, think about what their subjects are? Ghosts, mutants, inhumane murders... What are the elements that make people terrifying, pictures, sound effects, suspense... The key factor for the success of horror films is not human psychology! If you keep asking, why is this? is this real? If you go to investigate with a scientific attitude, maybe you won't be frightened.
So, I started!
After watching "Cherry Juice", except for the cherry red picture when the heroine Xue Rui came out, I really didn't see where the horror was. It may be that I have watched too many drama films before, and I have formed inertia in my mind, always concerned about what the next plot will be. Oh, the last 2 million yuan was actually occupied by Jordan, "This is my retreat, money, power, women."
This is a drama!
Before watching "1408", I consulted a male colleague who had seen the film and was accused of being "horrible". In the stage of gallbladder training, I still choose to watch it during the day when the popularity is high, and adopt the method of distraction, and pretend to discuss with them how to prevent heatstroke and cool down, what movies will be released during the summer vacation, and whether it will rain tonight...
You know , I was terrified...
The protagonist Mike (John Cusack) is a ghost novelist, but he is also a complete atheist. For more than 30 minutes, he is disproving his materialism. And the words of dissuasion from the manager of the Dolphin Hotel before Mike moved into 1408 created an abyss-like suspense. The moment that door of night opened, my heart was seized by it, and I fell into the fear of the self-made fear before it happened. Mike was always awake, but when he noticed a subtle difference in the room, he thought it was the hotel waiter's work; when the big radio at the bedside suddenly played automatically, I thought it was remote control . However, the story does not follow my line of thought, turning the story into a hotel murder, but in a given direction, only giving you a sense of horror that one step is better than one step. "No one gets through an hour," the hotel manager had warned him, and the radio began to count down. No drug was taken by Mike, denying the possibility of drug hallucinations, but he saw a lot of things that shouldn't be there. The dead daughter reappears and talks to him; many of the people who died here also come back, repeating the process of suicide; the thermostat suddenly goes from hot to cold to freezing; Mike tries to escape in many ways, but finally Going back to 1408... At one point, Mike escaped and was rescued while surfing with his wife by his side to take care of him - it turned out to be a nightmare! I followed Mike and breathed out a lot. This transition was very exciting. After he was free, he went to the post office and suddenly found that the staff there had been seen by the Dolphin Hotel. They picked up various tools and smashed the post office, and what was still exposed was 1408 - he returned again. This cursed room.
Looking at the last few seconds of the hour, Mike was on the verge of collapse. Everything returned to its original state, the destroyed room returned to its original order, the phone rang again, and it was a question whether to accept the next hour of purgatory or opt for a quick check-out. Thinking that his wife would be involved in the next hour, Mike hesitated, but "quick check-out" was also impossible. Hanging or being buried alive was also something he didn't want to choose. Fire, the only reality, he uses fire to walk out of the illusion and awaken the real environment with fire.
He was saved, and firefighters rescued him from the blaze.
Everything is clear. All of this is just an illusion. There are always many tests in life, and this is one of them, the victory over one's own fear. When he saw his daughter and wife, he just missed the child who died of illness, and the wife he hadn't seen for a long time; he saw all kinds of people who died, just because the manager had let him see all the pictures of the dead before he moved in and introduction; his experience of ice and water is nothing more than a re-enactment of his previous experience. There may be no ghosts in this world, but there are many illusions lurking in our hearts. Well, the merits of this film are complete, and everything should be over!
However, I was once again fooled by inertial thinking. In the final tape, not only his voice, but also his daughter was recorded in the recording! The originally clear plot has once again fallen into chaos!
Well, I surrender, I give up the analysis, this is a horror movie through and through, a room with a wicked door, and what happens in it is what happened in the past, not a hallucination! But how is this possible?
Well, I admit that I just want to introduce this movie, it has nothing to do with whether I am cute or respectable, and I do not want to abuse myself.
I am also brave, and watch "Deadly Revenge" when I am preparing to be alone.
