The Wonders of Deadhead Valley

Demetrius 2022-01-25 08:02:29

In the wild, thunderous, and gloomy sky, the pumpkin-head scarecrow glowed strangely in the lightning. The galloping carriage, the endless road. There was a scream of galloping horses, the sword was out of its sheath, the head fell, the neck was broken, and the blood was sticky. The sound of horror was manifested from the very beginning.



[Broken Head Valley], from Tim Burton (Tim Burton), a romantic and frightening film that makes your heart hang in front of your throat from beginning to end. It has the melancholy and gloomy atmosphere of a rich medieval castle, mixed with a little humor and black romance.



The mysterious town of Broken Head Valley, steeple churches, old buildings, bridges, and windmills, both rich in medieval style, and the taste of Tim Burton's fairy tales; dead branches, old trees, jungles, and inevitable green fog; sometimes There is a blue sky, but it will never be the kind of clear and transparent blue. This blue, blue is eclipsed and gloomy.



Weird caves with dead branches hanging everywhere; monster-like women with long hair covering the entire face; bloody undead trees with peculiar shapes that penetrate the gates of yin and yang; headless knights drilled out of the caves , Carrying a sharp axe, whizzing in, and whizzing away; ancient legends, mysterious family grievances. In the play, people panic and viewers are terrified.



Johnny Depp's image is really a cute guy. A little nervous, a little cowardly, full of wisdom, and a little humorous. Sometimes fearless, sometimes timid as a mouse. When you are nervous, you will even say "interesting" to cover up your inner anxiety. When faced with the terrifying truth, he often fainted with fright, but he pretended to be calm in front of others. Every time I fainted, I laughed out loud. It is precisely because of the two-sided characterization of human nature that it appears full of flesh and blood, authentic and credible.



The woman who gave her soul to the devil was eventually possessed by the devil. Fall in love by the decapitated knight and give her a bloody kiss. Forced her into the tree of undead, and finally showed a nostalgic hand. This is Tim Burton's dark humor and the inspiration of his genius. Such a plot and such a peculiar picture can only be done by a "ghost" like him.



There are always some weird sounds affecting your nerves. The bleating of sheep, the squeaking of scarecrows and the turning of wooden doors, the cooing of birds with the whirring of the wind, the compelling sound of horses hoofs from far and near, the neighing of galloping horses, just like a knife. The metal sound of the sheath, the sound of the head falling, and some unexplainable sounds. If these sounds are placed in a bright and empty scene, they won't look so terrifying, but in a dark picture, mixed with sometimes soothing, sometimes compact, and sometimes rushing music, full of mysterious and weird meanings. The sound effects, pictures, and plot are closely integrated to create an eerie and terrifying atmosphere. In short, I have made up my mind to grab your heart. The decapitated knight came whizzing, chopped off the head, and whizzed away. Every shot, every picture, is a weird and beautiful, natural and artificial art. The effect of combining the real material and the background of the oil painting is applied to the movie, which is extremely visual. Tim Burton's artistic aesthetic is perfectly presented.



The small round piece of paper has a flying red flamingo on one side and an empty birdcage on the other. Turning the paper, the bird is like being locked in a birdcage. It is also true and illusion. As a clue, this detail appears in the picture from time to time, inspiring people, and the story turns because of it. Love is lost and the truth is revealed. Is it a slumber illusion, or peeling off the clouds and looking for the origin of things, all in a single thought.



Although Tim Burton's works cannot be said to be wonderful everywhere, each one must have its unique and amazing features. [Edward Scissorhands], is a wonderful performance by Johnny Depp, the character, the details of the portrayal and the touching plot. [Zombie Bride] I personally think that the most brilliant is the dazzling and charming colors and exquisite props. And [Dropdown Valley] is of course the top sound and visual effects. Its characterization is inferior to [Edward Scissorhands].

    Not scary, but rather funny. It turned out that Depp’s cheeky pirate performance started here
