I like this series of horror short films very much. The production methods of each horror film show the director's profound and shrewd insights, so except for the profound connotation that attracts me the most, the rest of the pictures, lighting, plot, etc., are also Remarkable. Entering the pit from a "Memoirs of a Ghost Trick", part of what you see is not a film but an illustration. I am just here as a beginner who is basically just beginning to learn to watch movies and report my love for it to express my humble opinion. I hope that the viewers will lightly criticize it. Please point out the inappropriateness. To watch American horror, you must watch Master of Horror. --------------Here is the text dividing line------------------- "Master of Horror S01E01" Road Story: The first story is for The tribute-style portrayal of the American massacre series in the last century is more exciting. It is about how to turn an ordinary person like the heroine into a perverted killer who is more terrifying than the murderer in the play. What is needed may be physical and mental abuse, and people's initial fear has evolved into hatred, and then a perverted violence. Advocate for people not to impose what they like on those who care about them; and to stay away from abuse.

"Master of Horror S01E02" The Dream of the Magic House: The devils don't crave blood, they crave souls, they want sinful souls. What the human senses perceive is not necessarily true. Hearing, seeing, and touching cannot be completely believable. Sometimes the truth is beyond human cognition and it is extremely confusing. Is the hybrid of science and magic a schizophrenia or a physical truth? The sheriff's attitude speaks volumes about the inability of mankind to face what is now more supernatural. So we have to be in awe of the unknown.

"Master of Horror S01E03" Dance of Death: This film is about the degeneration and destruction of human nature after the nuclear war in the Third World War, the morbid distortion of society, the flashing pictures of the original film and the exaggerated interpretation of the people in the bar. can reflect this. People with more normal views like the male lead can only live in chaos in chaotic times, just like ordinary people who are powerless to change everything. The mother sells the indulgent eldest daughter, this kind of value is also a manifestation of rationality and not an emotional act; in the end, the heroine can only integrate into this morbid society and cannot save herself. Quite to my appetite for CULT.

"Master of Horror S0104" Jennifer: The core character Jennifer is almost a beast that is out of the concept of human beings. The devil-like face and uncontrollable appetite and sexual desire lead her to rely on one person and use it as the core to kill and devour other people. Innocent people and small animals. Looking at Jennifer from a certain perspective, she is actually very simple, a beast who only knows how to eat and depend on others, but she has a little human wisdom, which leads to the expansion of her appetite and sexual desire, and the most important thing is that there is also a male protagonist at the same time. Such a person has a strong desire for protection and sexual desire, which is in Jennifer's arms, thus bringing tragedies to human beings and an infinite cycle of desires. It advocates the restraint of desire.

"Master of Horror S01E05" Chocolate: There is a little bit of meaning in all aspects, but overall the story is not very good. Suspicions and doubts abound among people. Because of the male protagonist's special function, the female protagonist feels a complete threat. This deep feeling of being peeped at and having no privacy makes people fear rather than curious, just like the universe mentioned in the Three-Body Problem." "Dark Forest" law, strangers can never accept this kind of symbiosis, so cannibalism leads to death. And the male protagonist may also be just a kind of extreme paranoia and schizophrenia, which clearly comes from the unacceptable emptiness and loneliness caused by the breakdown of the marriage. The female protagonist in the play also killed her ex-boyfriend because of emotional betrayal. Therefore, I hope that there will be less suspicion and suspicion between people, more trust and calmness, and be serious and responsible for feelings.

Homecoming of "Master of Horror S01E06": The most outstanding one in the series that I have seen so far, there is not a single wasted scene, and each plot is directly touching, which is quite touching. Not only the sadness of the soldiers wanting to go home and peace, but also the hypocrisy of the government's efforts to disguise it. The potential crisis revealed by the zombies controlling the country at the end is also very meaningful. Soldiers have ideas, but the army cannot have ideas, and can only choose absolute obedience. So for wars that shouldn't be there, the military supports the government, and the soldiers don't. Soldiers are always the saddest beings. They have experienced the most brutal death and deeply understand the value of life. They just want peace for the country. However, government personnel achieve their political goals through various power games, and they also falsely put on a glossy guise. In their view, human life is not very important to consider. So the focus of this movie is not on which one is terrible between zombies and the government (in fact, the zombies here are not zombies, they are just dead people who want to express their feelings), but on war and peace. Of course, the current state of mind is also a bit disgusting and too anti-government. After all, we live under the protection of the system, rather than competing with wild animals for food in the wilderness.

"Master of Horror S01E07" Miss Bug: There is nothing wrong with bugs, they are born to forage and reproduce, and then die. It's the people who are wrong. Mi'er's father used this special bug for revenge. The evil means made his daughter deeply retribution, and also killed the innocent landlord and ruined the childhood of an innocent little girl. It's hard to imagine that just because the daughter fell in love with a lesbian, even before the relationship started, the father would kill the lesbian. The result was that both Lala became a breeding container for bugs and became mentally ill. People need to control their spoiled mind.

"Master of Horror S01E08" Cigarette Brand: The real horror comes from the scars and regrets in the heart, as well as the secrets that people don't want to know. "The True End of the World" is the most evil movie in the film. Its power comes from his ability to guide a person to face the sin in his heart, completely destroy and disintegrate a person from the heart, so the viewers will be mentally disturbed and bloodshed. This film can be subtly influenced by various extreme negative emotions through the expression of "cigarette brand" from the moment a person starts to touch it. The broken angel monsters and the evil and bloody pictures in the movie are only a guiding role, and ultimately act on the psychology, and then infinitely magnify a person's inner scars, regrets, painful memories, etc., and completely destroy a person. This teaches people not to be overly curious to pursue extreme things. Although it will satisfy the thirst for knowledge, this desire will lead people's hearts to a point of no return.

"Master of Horror S01E09" Rebirth: A topic about the value of life. It is selfish possessiveness for parents to trade twelve lives for their children. This kind of love completely disregards others and destroys twelve families just for the sake of their own. Perceptually speaking, it is ruthless and outrageous, and even rationally speaking, it is not a worthwhile business. And the male protagonist uses the lives of his parents in exchange for the female protagonist. In my opinion, it is also selfish, but it is reasonable, because the parents have blood on their hands, and the sins are deep, and the resurrection of the female protagonist also makes the rebirth of the male protagonist right. own meaning. How should the value of life be measured? What people need to have is rational love and fraternity, rather than deformed pure possessiveness. This episode and the last one were amazing.

"Master of Horror S01E10" Deer Girl Killer: As a filmed interpretation of the real murders in Indian mythology, this series is a failure in all aspects (comedy, horror, myth remake). There is nothing to say, the deer girl's temptation to kill a man can only be regarded as a lame reason, the story is poor, and the details are also poorly described.

"Master of Horror S01E11" took me on the road: There are all serial killers on one road, there is absolutely no legal system and justice in the nearby area, only perverts satisfying abnormal desires. This is a slaughterhouse for ordinary people, a cemetery for normal personalities. The desperate escape of ordinary people is in vain, but they do not want the hunter to become the prey in the end. This is an area outside the crazy human civilization. The plot of pervert VS pervert is also very rich and creative, and it is a good drama.

"Master of Horror S01E12" Haeckel's legend: wonderful wonderful wonderful! Maybe it's just to my taste, I like this type of film very much. It shows the abnormal and distorted personality thoughts of deformed and affectionate love in an extreme way. This is also a kind of art in my mind. The style and effect of the film are very similar to the next episode. Although the content cannot help but think deeply, but the strong sense of plot makes people experience the excitement of cult even more. In the first half, I thought it was a plot similar to "Rebirth" that resurrects a lover at any cost, but seeing Edward's escape in the back can show that the kind of small and fresh emotion is just a pediatrician in front of Alice's more extreme zombie love, It is even more incredible in the three views.

"Master of Horror S01E13" Memoirs of a Ghost Trick: My favorite in the entire first season, and the first one that took me to appreciate the charm of the Master of Horror series. Those who dare not face up to their hearts have committed things that violate their own moral principles. They will find reasons to weave lies to hide their sins, and subconsciously cultivate them into facts. Absurd brothels, disgusting prostitute makeup, easily seen dead corpses, incestuous brothers and sisters, lewd monks, perverted deformed twins, terrifying SM punishment... No doubt I like high-energy cult movies very happy, but What I want more is to see the reason for this in a film that goes beyond what ordinary people can bear and understand, beyond the borders of morality and legal system, and to see the human nature and thoughts reflected from it. "Memoirs of a Ghost Trick" also does a good job of this, and that's one of the reasons why I especially like it. It peels off the coat of hypocrisy layer by layer, and cuts the flesh and bones of the bloody truth until it searches for the deepest hidden truth. The ultimate sin of human nature, the ugly and false side of human nature is brought to the greatest extent and presented in front of you, making people dare not look directly.
