As a qualified melon eater, I just like to watch the advanced and touching deeds of "Diaosi" counterattack and Xiaoboda.
After watching "Don't Breathe", I followed Wang Jianlin's father-in-law's instructions and set a small achievable goal:
For example: Kill the superhero "Suicide Squad" in the first weekend box office, and then successfully top the weekend box office throne.
Ouch, ox fork~
The most eye-catching thing is that this film invested about 10 million US dollars and took away more than 26 million US dollars at the box office in the first weekend.
It does make a lot of sense
Not much nonsense, just watch the trailer for the 2-minute version that is enough to scare your legs together
86% on Rotten Tomatoes
Media San Diego Reader: "In this good thriller, you can see the shadow of "Thriller Room" and "Psycho of the Blind Girl."
ABC News Radio: "Apart from some flaws, this movie is without a doubt a classic horror film."
And according to the front-line report sent back by the people who eat melon: "When watching the movie, my adrenaline rushed to the roof..."
In fact, its story is very simple and very old-fashioned: small single-family buildings, confined spaces, perverted murders
But why is it different from those coquettish bitches out there?
From the story, G-spot, climax, reversal, really no time to breathe
In the 2-minute trailer, the heroine looks like a little poor guy, forced by life, crazy about money
Then a love triangle quickly appeared, what about the horror? Where's the ghost? What about monsters?
Immediately afterwards, the three-person abduction team decided to steal a small two-story villa after many steps.
for Mao? Because the owner of the villa is a blind old man who looks weak but rich
On a dark and windy night, the three of them sneaked into the villa. Who would have thought to disturb the old man?
In the dim light, the old man was full of tendons, with tough lines like an ancient Greek statue, with a low voice, a right uppercut with his backhand, and killed the heroine's male ticket in seconds.
Emma, this disadvantaged group doesn't play cards according to the routine. Coincidentally, he is a blind, sharpshooter, and a trainee.
Heaven has a way, you don't go, hell has no door, you come!
The plot took a sharp turn, and there were only two left in the three-person team. The wolf entered the tiger's mouth and was trapped in the huge secret room of the villa.
Then, unearth more amazing secrets
It seems that Hong Kong's translation of "The Killing of the Secret Room" is the only one word!
The painting style in the trailer, there is a section of the performance of the dark world, using gray tones
It's not an infrared processing method, because looking at red in the theater is slightly irritating to the eyes
In fact, gray is a very soft and moderate color, but this pale, foggy gray is just enlarged
The paleness of the human face to better help the characters express their inner fears
The close-up of black pupils and the black shadows that can be seen everywhere add to the strange and frightening atmosphere
It's like adding a layer of just the right filter to the original film.
In addition to the picture, sound effects are very important for movies, especially for horror movies
According to my secret recipe, if you really want to watch a horror movie, but you don't have the guts, you might as well turn off the sound effect and turn on the cross talk of Uncle Guo or Xiao Yueyue, which is guaranteed to be better than watching a comedy.
The most terrifying thing in horror movies is often not the appearance of strange forces, but nothing, but the audience is frightened by their own imagination and tense nerves! die! !
Undoubtedly, the sound effects of this movie are excellent, and the best is the obvious blank sound effect.
It was quiet for a few seconds from time to time, as if I really had to hold my breath to avoid being discovered by the old boss.
And the doubtful points of the trailer itself amplify the horror elements
Why did something like cement suddenly appear? Is it the cement murder case?
Why is a blind old man so accurate with his marksmanship? This makes us blind slaps in the face.
What the hell is that thing that suddenly appeared like a female ghost zombie?
The old man nailed the doors and windows to iron plates, is he really going to play a cool room escape?
How did the lonely old man become rich?
Is he a psychopath? Serial killer?
There are too many question marks reserved in the trailer. It is estimated that the volume of the trailer should be 1/80 of the whole film.
Horror movies have always been fond of confined spaces such as cabins in the woods, small second floors in the suburbs, and single-family villas.
Because in such a place where there is no escape, the sense of tension and crampedness can be created to the extreme, and the atmosphere is even more eerie and eerie.
And because there are not too many scene changes, the audience's attention is shifted to the characters, which tests the skills of the actors and directors.
Obviously, the acting skills of the heroine and the old man are online
Director Feder Alvarez once made a visually stunning sci-fi short film at a cost of $300, which won the attention of Hollywood
In 2013, "Ghost Playing People" became a veritable turtle-haired gold-sucking king: the cost of 17 million, and the final box office exceeded 100 million
Director, you are so good at saving money, you must have a female friend... 233333
Therefore, this "small" movie counterattack case without a well-known director, first-line star, and no strange powers vividly tells us:
When making a movie, first of all, you must be worthy of your conscience. If you go out to make money, you will have to pay it back sooner or later!
Finally, hold your breath, be quiet and wait for the juice source!
