Chapter 253: 252. The self-cultivation of horror film

  Chapter 253 252. The self-cultivation of horror film actors (monthly ticket plus more!)

  After returning from the Jiangcheng Mental Hospital, Lu Zie felt a lot more comfortable.

  He came into contact with real mental patients, and obtained a lot of first-hand information during the communication and chat with them.

  Before, Lu Zing had only a superficial understanding of mental illness. Just like many other ordinary people, he found mental illness to be bizarre, difficult to understand, weird, and unable to communicate.

  However, after actual contact, Lu Zie feels that these patients with diseases are actually just like ordinary people, but their way of thinking has some deviations due to the disease.

For example, the typical hypothesis seems to be neurotic, and they are always afraid or hate something that does not exist, but in fact, they just often delusion and regard their imagination as reality. Just imagine, if in reality There is an ugly-looking creature by your side. You will also want to drive it away. The patients with hypothesis have acted normally and reasonably. In other words, in addition to treating delusions as reality, they and Ordinary people are no different.

Moreover, some patients with hypothesis will construct a worldview that belongs to them and act in accordance with the rules of this worldview. From this point of view, they are actually quite normal in their delusions, even better than many who don’t know every day. Ordinary people who are thinking about something are more normal.

  Understanding this, the mental patient’s thinking can be captured.

  The reason why Lu Yi wants to study mental patients is to learn their unreasonable characteristics.

  As we all know, the scariest part of works with horror themes is the monsters or dangerous incomprehensibility.

  When the protagonists do not know what is being chased, killed, threatened, or when the opponent will emerge from, it is the most terrifying time.

  If those ghosts can be understood, can be seen through, and even eliminated, then the sense of horror will disappear completely.

In a horror game, if there is only one flashlight, then anything that pops up can scare the player half to death, but if the player is given a gun full of bullets, the player will only shout to let these monsters come more. only.

  The danger that cannot resist and can only avoid will cause people's anxiety.

  The mental patient fits this very well.

In many works, the appearance of a mental patient is enough to exaggerate the atmosphere of horror. If the patient is still unkempt, described as withered, and then holding a tattered baby doll and singing a nursery rhyme or two in his mouth, it will definitely be Ling. Impressive.

  Lu Zin came home, the TV was still on, and it was showing small videos of industrial manufacturing used for decompression on the Internet. This time it was the production of mirrors.

  Seeing Lu Zin in the mirror, he seemed to like to look at these things, staring at the screen intently.

  The two mists on the sofa did not care at all, and seemed to be asleep.

  Lu Zin came to the computer, opened the document, and began to record today's experience.

  Three days later, on the last day of April, the May Day holiday is about to begin. On the afternoon of the 30th, everyone has no intention of working, only thinking about how to spend this holiday.

  But for the theater staff, this holiday is not easy.

   During the May Day Golden Week, many movies will also be released, bringing the beginning of the summer season, including "The Mouth of a Madman".

The pre-sale box office of "Mad Men’s Mouth" is close to 50 million, which is already an excellent achievement for a horror and thriller work. You know, many similar movies have a total box office of so much. Most of the horror movies that have a deep relationship between natural and B-level movies are synonymous with low cost and low box office.

  After all, there is a big investment in production. Who would shoot a horror movie? Wouldn’t it be good to shoot some superhero movies or disaster movies?

  The price/performance ratio of horror films is very low.

  May 1st, midnight.

  The premiere of "Mouth of the Madman".

  Countless spectators flooded into the cinema at night, just to get a glimpse of the first work under the horror worldview of Lu Zie.

  Yannan Communication University student Bai Qiquan and his girlfriend Pang Zhen are among them.

Bai Qiquan has been studying horror movies recently. After the baptism of "Cry", Bai Qiquan became interested in horror movies. He didn't watch much before. During this period of time, he has been crazy about making up for it, and even B-level movies have not been released. However, for him, the horror film routines are already familiar.

  It’s nothing more than something that suddenly pops up to scare you, using some disgusting things to make people offensive, plus ketchup, amputated limbs, chainsaws, and scenes such as hospitals, mental hospitals, and schools.

  He is going to prepare the content of his graduation thesis this year, and Bai Qiquan is still thinking about whether he wants to choose the topic of horror film research.

  Walking into the cinema, Bai Qiquan saw that many people were still smiling.

  This is also normal. Because of the previous "Cry" fire, horror movies have begun to enter the public eye, and more and more people have begun to watch these horror movies. This time, the pre-sale box office is also because of this.

  In other words, a lot of viewers actually gathered for a zero-point premiere today, and they didn’t have any intuitive knowledge of Lu Yi’s horror films before.

  Bai Qiquan was a little gloating, but after thinking about it carefully, he is now sitting in the audience, and I don’t know who is more ugly by then.

  He stopped talking.

  The movie opened, he calmed down and watched the movie.

  More than a hundred minutes later.

  Along with the production list and the ending song, the huge movie theater is silent.

  Bai Qiquan looked at the screen, his head was blank.

  This is not the same as being scared, or feeling scared or scared.

If watching "Cry" and Lu Yi's other works, he brought him an intuitive fear, a sense of horror entwined with him by his fear turning into a poisonous snake, then this film made him feel like It was like forcibly stuffing a lot of things into his head.

Some people have this kind of experience when they were young, originally only in their own homes, between kindergarten and elementary schools, felt that the world is very small, only this big, but one time, suddenly saw something magnificent, such as the sea , Such as the endless starry sky, such as those huge and busy cities, the feeling at that moment is what Bai Qiquan recognizes.

  It was a sense of fear that he could not control, understand, or recognize. At the end of the production list, the moment the cinema lights turned on, Bai Qiquan cried.

He feels that his life seems meaningless, everything is hypocritical, just like the protagonists in the movie, like the novelist, no effort can stop the world from going in the direction of destruction. .

  This movie is like a switch. After pressing it, the whole person becomes nothingness.

   "Lu Zin, this person is so scary!"

During the time of the sage, Bai Qiquan was full of emotion.
