This title is destined to be out of tune... I know, I also want to complain: this film is really a comedy! ! ! (broken throat)
Lots of spoilers, just take a look.
After watching "A Midsummer Night's Fright", I only remembered how to watch "Hereditary Doom". From MidSummer, we can see that the director's first half of the character's psychology is really long... It's really long... Multi-role Hereditary bad luck is a little better. On Midsummer Night, I directly parachuted into the 30th minute after the opening 15 minutes. I ignored a lot of the daily plot in the first half and understood it without any obstacles.
In fact, the first half of hereditary misfortune is quite immersive, but in the second half, when the climax of the unscientific and magical plot begins.... I play in an instant, the more I get to the back, the happier I am, and at the end I laugh all the way for a kilometer. Everyone wants to kill me (.)
Director, I beg you to make a comedy next time. Your sense of breakpoint rhythm and this creative cult style is absolutely fine to make a "Scream"-level blockbuster, I beg you, go ahead Shoot sand sculpture cult comedy! ! !
Now back to the plot, the plot analysis and the details of the cult have been thoroughly analyzed by other netizens, so I will chat with you why I want to laugh the more I watch it. The whole point of a movie is to tell a story, and I'll simply say how this story made me laugh:
1. The protagonist's family is rich (wealthy, right) grandmother Ellen passed away, and a funeral was held.
It’s okay for the director to bury the stem, the devil necklace, the weak heroine Anne, the normal husband Steve, the young normal moth Pete, the smaller female goose Charlie, but the cast is a bit like a lack of IQ (director Of course it was intentional)
Then Annie was even more vulnerable and ran to mutual aid. Here, I want to learn about the popularity of mutual aid clubs in Europe and the United States. People with similar experiences regularly chat with each other about their tragic lives and encourage each other to continue living. At the mutual aid meeting, Annie complained that her whole family seemed to have inherited mental illness (you know the point), and she was not very sad after her mother's death, but she felt very wrong.
In general horror movies, there are one or more protagonists who are relatively weak in spirit, so that it is convenient for evil forces to invade their brains. The character of Annie will not collapse. Then horror movies always have one or more intelligence manipulations, which I think the whole family will not collapse.
Annie looked through her mother's relics and saw cult books, so she gave up and continued to search. This is a foreshadowing.
2. The grandmother's grave was dug, and the daily life of Pitt the goose and Charlie the goose.
There is nothing to say about the foreshadowing. The grandmother was buried when she was buried. The plot explained later. I think the worst part of the whole film is Steve in front of the mentally fragile wife. Instead of seeking professional psychiatrists, it is because you feel that your family does not have enough money or what is wrong.
They are all rich people. Are Americans used to solving problems by themselves? Of course, it may also be out of love for their wives, and they do not realize how serious this matter is. Besides, who would have thought that my mother-in-law was blindly engaged in a cult.
Pete's normal character, Charlie...a young character who seems to need special education. Here I want to talk about the fact that special education in the United States is doing well. All kinds of details are not mentioned, you can see it.
3. The death of Charlie.
This is the only part of the whole film that I really think "ah, this is a serious plot direction", after all, a young man like Pitt wants to go to the party and mess around (so why do American students smoke marijuana, your country's future is hopeless), The logic of trying to date a girl is very normal and common. But my mother doesn't know what brain circuit, in order to make the goose not drink when he goes to the social party at night, let him bring his sister? ? ? It's really troublesome for you to set up your own artist and not take care of the high-demand female goose...
Of course, the protagonists don't know what's wrong with their operations, and the audience is very clear.
Charlie has an allergy attack on cake with nuts, Pete drives fast to try to get to the hospital but his sister dies by accident. The actors in this segment are highly capable and immersive.
One detail that can be drawn here is that their daily family life is estimated to have many shortcomings, such as why they don’t put a first aid kit in the car (for the sake of the plot) The only scene in the back of the cooking and eating scene is the father’s operation. It is estimated that many daily things at home are also the history of the father. Tiff is taking care.
Of course, the death of the goose also made Annie collapse. Anyway, it was much more sad than the death of her mother. Pete fell into self-blame and was mentally fragile.
Father Steve is absent in this episode. I don't have much to say about the plot setting, but these kinds of major accidents usually occur in the teenage years - such as accidental loss of part of a limb (amputation, etc.) In such an accident, there should be a social worker (at least the school's psychological tutor) who will come to provide psychological counseling, otherwise it is easy for minors to want to do something more irreversible.
The director didn't mention it, didn't shoot it, and didn't hint at it, and there might be news at the scene of such a tragic car accident... If there is news, someone will come to psychological counseling, and the whole family needs it. In addition to comforting his wife in this part of the father's role (which has not been very successful), the director did not film him comforting the goose - you goose is the one who was there in person.
Ignore this bug for the sake of the plot. Maybe comfort his wife and let Steve be so exhausted that he forgets his goose. Maybe their style is the same, what else can I say.
Steve: I'm so hard.jpg
4. Anne sleepwalks, Joni invades.
Because two relatives died in a short period of time, Annie tried to go to the mutual aid association again, but she felt that there was no help, so she planned to run away, and she just passed all this.
Then Joni from the mutual aid society came over to chat up, and enthusiastically introduced the method of summoning the soul-appeared! The pathfinder brother (sister) of the villain BOSS!
Annie, who was in grief, went home to recruit the soul of the female goose…………[Then the whole movie gave me a different impression from here, I’m really sorry, I really laughed all the way from the first soul call season finale】
5. Conjuring.
Annie took the hands of her husband and the goose: "I want to summon the soul of my dear female goose!!!"
Pete: Still in a fragile state, and since the audience knows what happened in the car accident, everyone has a bit of mixed affection for Pete (?) and is a little bit overwhelmed by the evocation.
Steve: My wife is crazy, absolutely. (It was written all over my face that my wife needs to see a psychiatrist)
And then the goddamn conjuration succeeded, and possessed Annie.
Steve: Fuck! Eat My Pure Water Dafa!
Pete: (Frightened, more vulnerable, foreshadowing again)
Learned! In the future, if someone will tell me that I will go up to a bottle of 500ml mineral water!
6. Pete is influenced (foreshadowing), Annie's state drops, nightmare scene
The plot that follows is more magical (← mixed), and Pete's spirit is more fragile because he saw the conjuration scene - everyone knows why. No matter if the soul of the younger sister is summoned or something demonic, whoever is mentally weak will do it anyway.
Wen Ziren smiled without saying a word, but "The Conjuring" itself is an adaptation of a real event and has an official record, hereditary bad luck...
Now the mother has summoned the goose's soul (to be determined) and gradually sees a strange phenomenon, and Pete is still in a nightmare because of mixed emotions like guilt. The state is easy to be possessed, who knows if it is possessed again.
Me: Shit, isn't this an old slogan of "losing family members → summoning souls → the ghost who came here knows what it is → whoever is mentally weak in the beginning will fuck whoever's brains → and use someone's brains to fuck other people".
What the hell is going on here? It's suffocating. No matter what the strange reason is, everyone will know what happened next.
The ending is nothing more than the protagonist defeating evil, or the protagonist is killed by evil.
7. The incident of the burning of the diary, Joni was exposed, and Annie discovered the truth of the cult.
After this nightmare event. Even if Annie has a pit in her head, she knows that the ghost she summoned may not be the ghost of a female goose → Damn Jonny lied to me!
The above logic works, and then according to the routine of ordinary horror movies, what is the carrier of the devil coming to the world, and it will be over if this thing is eliminated.
The progress bar betrayed the director's intentions, how could the carrier (the female goose's picture book) be destroyed so easily, and the devil would have to jump around for a while.
If I watch this in a movie theater, I'll fucking watch my phone when I get to this scene (← I'm not attracted by the plot and I don't have a sense of substitution)
Then Annie tries to find Joni - of course, the boss's pawn has a lot of credit and fame, and will give you a knife and run away until you stab yourself.
Annie came back to look through her mother's relics according to the clues - and found that her mother was messing with the cult. First, she let her granddaughter Charlie carry the devil, and she also wanted Pete to be possessed by the devil. Joni was also one of the big cheats in the mother's cult.
(This paragraph finally shows that Steve is worried that his wife is mentally ill and begins to seek help from a doctor. Steve is too difficult x2)
Then Annie finds Ellen's headless body - hidden in their attic.
8. Pete was manipulated into X1, Annie broke down
Steve has to worry about his wife and goose again, very tired. How can an ordinary person live like this? Whether you get married, you should look at the other party's family history of mental illness... (I think AIDS has to notify the other party before marriage, isn't this harmful)
Pete was successfully manipulated by the devil (who made the noise his sister would make every day), hurt himself, and a tired Steve took the goose home. The wife said very nonchalantly that all the problems came from a picture book, so please burn it.
Steve: I'm too hard x3, even if my wife does a conjuration, the goose also collapses, and then the wife puts all the problems on the female goose's relic.
Annie: There's a body upstairs, husband, I need you!
Steve found the body: wife, why didn't you call the police! (A normal person should call the police as soon as they find the body)
Annie: You see this is all evidence! My mother was a fool for a few cults, so Joni came over to teach me how to conjure my soul!
Steve: Wait, did you dug up the body (wife is really mentally ill)
Annie: I'm telling the truth! ! ! (The truth is not believed, and the progress bar once again betrayed the director's intention to reverse)
Demon: Whoever fucks me must die.
Usually follow the routine of horror movies... (I'm too lazy to talk about routines)... A normal person must die, so Steve lives up to the expectations of everyone (the director) and died, Annie completely collapsed, and the demon control reached x2
I basically waited for a few seconds to end this paragraph, just... This paragraph is really funny (pronounced as a cliché), the confrontation between normal thinking and crazy thinking hahahahaha.
9. Pete was just the devil who was crowned king.
In theory, the ending plot should be the most powerful sublimation paragraph, but the more I go back, the more I laugh. My laugh is really weird...
Now in this family, according to the previous preparations, my sister Charlie has been carrying demons since she was a child, so she seems to be mentally retarded (hey), and died because of accident and accident (or deliberately from the devil's point of view) - affecting Pete normal mental state. The ordinary guy who used to be messing around with marijuana and wanting to pick up a girl all day suddenly suffered a huge change without psychological counseling, but his mother even intensified to summon the little girl's soul, which simply added to his mental burden.
Annie, you all know your family's history of mental illness, so you should find a doctor if you can. If you can't find it, make an appointment. Anyway, your family has money... Or you can arrange a long-term psychiatrist... Of course, the director won't let it, so let it be A family at high risk for mental stability is messing around.
A psychiatrist must have regularly reminded her to go to a mutual aid club... Then there would be no such sand sculpture plot.
Good Husband Good Dad Steve: I'm having a hard time, really.
After the devil signed a contract with his grandmother Ellen, he gave wealth and talent, and then there was no male carrier - he wanted a male body and only got a female (Charlie) body.
Devil: I'm a big boss in women's clothing every day, and I'm so difficult too. So I'm going to get a new body, just you, the grandson Pete of the Contractor's blood!
My parents are both white (Caucasian, my grandmother is more northerly), I also think it is very strange how to give birth to a moth that is obviously a bit Middle Eastern (the south is on the equator)... Although it still belongs to the Caucasian race. , mainly looking at the dominant genetic features on the face of the parents, the moth really looks like the old king next door... (I found another bright spot that Annie wanted to have an abortion back then)
The mental journey of the big BOSS in this film:
In order to get men's body, of course, I have to kill the current women's body → I'm dead → I've been summoned again → I can't get Pete yet → The cult created by Contractor Ellen is quite useful, and the believers are helping me get Pete → Steve has to die → ok I got Annie I'll wear women's clothes again for a while → I've got to screw up Pete → OK I've got Pete.
The ending went like this, and Pete found out that everything was wrong and finally found his father's body - and then the kid didn't call the police.
Although the last time was a special situation, it would be fine to call the police after he has recovered. We must allow people to be shocked for a while.
Then at this time, the director came to the ceiling for the horror effect of Annie, who was controlled by a demon.
Me: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Seriously, this operation is useless! You have the ability to let the possessed Charlie Anne float in the air in the previous scene! Then there is the exorcist. I think the director may want to pay tribute to the classics. The murderous mother chases and kills the goose on the spot.
Me: I think you really need to knock your head, probably because you don't want to spend the money of a psychiatrist.
Pete saw the cult ceremony scene in the attic, the decapitated man (after all, there was a lot of foreshadowing), knew that he was the next target, felt that all this was too fucked up and wanted to wake up.
Then the director played a trick again, and my mother suddenly appeared from the ceiling of the attic and hung herself up and tried to amputate her head.
Me: This demon is very skinny, anyway, this operation is to defeat Pete.
And then the sound was even a little funny, and the demon showed Pete the three dead people in the attic—still naked, the color of their skin that must have been dead a long time ago (maybe not dead, of course). Why, this is "I will give you this kind of sand sculpture if you listen to me"? Who is going to join your cult! ! ! Not as good-looking as grandma Ellen did back then! ! ! No wonder your mom Annie has no followers! Husband can't be convinced! ! !
Pete jumped out of the window in a panic and jumped out of the window again in shock. After being overly shocked, there was still peace - there is a scene of "a horror movie must die for a pet" - Pete saw his mother's headless body floating towards the cult's The ultimate tree house. (There are more nudes around the bookstore, I think the director has some kind of hobby for celestial baths, and the same operation on Midsummer Night)
…………No, you still followed the past when you saw such a strange thing, is there something wrong with your brain? ? ?
After a series of previous blows to Pete, there is little reason to understand.
This kind of "you have to kill the past when you see something weird" is a very cliché horror movie, and I really hope it ends with Pete running away.
Pete makes a call to the police at this moment, which is a miracle (hey hey hey) It is best to book a psychiatrist package for himself by the way.
This boss is really skinny... not only likes headless corpses, but also likes to do things when others are mentally fragile, and there are more believers who come to help... If it's an illusion, then this boss is very limited to mental influence, if it is The real person, the other believers probably helped to create a lot of details.
Anyway, Pete, whose spirit was defeated, has become the new carrier of the demon Paimon. I am not surprised at all.jpg
It is estimated that it is because of the belief that Paimon has money and artistic skills - although I don't feel very talented when watching those artistic products in the play (a little bit, but limited...)
Mainly because it's too sandy....... Originally a very serious and serious devil, and after doing such a series of operations, especially in the later stage, he has the ability to control people to ascend up and down, and believers are crowned naked-too sandy, no believers are completely naked I guess I can be more serious.
Mom, I saw myself too sand sculptures, although I know it was a huge blow to Pete, but I can't fucking take it seriously... The moths sticking to the ceiling before, the head hitting the ceiling, and the indecision before I don't even look at it Psychiatrist and calling the police - Annie is really a role with little IQ in my mind except to find out that her mother is engaged in a cult. It is too low-minded and makes people doubt the quality of basic education in the United States.
Not to mention the students who drank marijuana... I lost the sense of substitution for a role that was too wise, it would be better for the unfortunate Steve to be in...
The stalk is an old stalk, and the plot trend is also an old routine. The relatively new stalk is that this grandmother planted the seeds because the last grandchild suffered, which is also very miserable.
There is really no sense of substitution for cult stalks! ! ! The director pays too much attention to cult comedies. The main line is still very intellectual. A Midsummer Night's Dream is also wrong. The rhythm is not right and even makes me want to laugh... Director, I beg you to make a reverse horror comedy, it must be popular, such as When being chased by ghosts, the protagonist passed a few nudes while running on the road... (.
