To be honest, when I was a child, I didn’t dare to touch horror movies. Even the scene of the coffin opening and autopsy in the TV series “Youth Bao Qingtian” would be so frightening that I would hide under the covers and cry secretly. As I grew up, I watched a few Lin Zhengying ghost movies and zombies. The series, but what impressed me deeply was that "Biochemical Shouzo" starring Chen Xiaochun surprised me. The result of being bitten by a zombie and turning into a zombie was the most unacceptable to me. After watching "Deadly Turn 5" this afternoon, I felt that the horror movies I had watched before were insignificant. Even the writing about vampires in "Blade Runner" felt normal. I watched the Japanese B-level movie "Vampire Girl". For the girl Franken, I also feel that the bloody mouth is more frightening, and the others are just average. Now, I think "Deadly Turn 5" seems to be comparable to "Human Centipede 2" I've seen before, but the former is bloody and the latter is disgusting. In short, both have the fundamental nature of perversion. In fact, the reason why the director made such a bloody and appalling movie should be to reflect the ugly human nature.
This article focuses on providing the following four key words: perversion, inner world, dirty, life.
Why are these seemingly unreasonable methods of killing so numerous? Wouldn't it be okay to stab to death directly?
"Fatal Bend 5" is obviously a contest between the so-called "good" and "evil" through the means of binary opposition. On one side is Maynard, the perverted demon king who has killed countless people, and several mountain man killers under his control; on the other side is a group of college students and police. The methods of killing cannibals are very cruel, such as hacking to death with an ax, digging their hearts out, burning them in oil drums, etc., how cruel. The whole film ends with the victory of the "villain", all the people are dead, what is the director's intention? Of course, a question that bothers me is why it is so troublesome when it comes to killing people. They take pleasure in killing people. In the film, it is difficult for me to see the scenes of them eating human flesh. There is one detail that is intriguing, that is, after the three mountain men slashed Billy's girlfriend Cruz with a knife, Cruz, who was still moaning in a pool of blood and struggling to the last, was forced to eat his own small intestine, and then one of the mountain men again Pick up edibles with severed roots. The film has always been shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere controlled by the strong will of the cannibals. They are mocking humans, laughing at their incompetence, selfishness, laughing at how strong human desires are, and laughing at human beings who dare not look directly at their inner world.
Yes, there is a demon living in the inner world of each of us, staying in a "dead corner", just around the corner, waiting for us to call, so as to devour our body and soul. Having said that, I would like to mention a little about the series of "Evening Mountains Have Eyes". A direct feeling given to the audience in the film is that there are a pair of evil eyes watching how human beings die. I personally think that this eye is the inspector of the soul, like a "spectator" and like a "the most central fear in the quagmire", although in the end of "Eye in the Mountains", humans won the victory and burned the ugly mutants to death. Perhaps, the more a person is in a situation of extreme fear, the brighter his inner world becomes. I think the best example of this is Rita's "deal" with Maynard, who took the devil's word and let him go, but the devil stabbed him in the eye, knowing that her boyfriend, Guise, was It was unbearable to be ripped apart by a mountain man with a truck. In order to save her own life, Rita's sense of justice is shaken, and at that moment, she just wants to survive. All the moral concepts of human beings have no constraints on her, her inner world is so clear, she doesn't need to pretend, she just wants to live well. Secondly, I noticed that they understand the feelings of the world, which is really rare. After Cruz was killed, Billy and Julian were able to risk their lives to find it, as well as the sheriff's professionalism and sense of justice. These are all born out of fear. When Billy and Cruz had sex before, the three of them wore masks of mountain people to scare them, which also implied that for ordinary humans, if there was no hatred, they would only use frightening methods, and it was Halloween. Everyone thinks they are alcoholics or children. On the one hand, it shows the ignorance of human beings, and on the other hand, it shows the "undefended line of the mind".
Let's talk about the word "dirty", which is actually connected with "ugly". Generally, the villains in movies are dressed in ugly clothes. They have a vomiting appearance, but they are murderous and bloodthirsty. And the naked display of dirty sometimes doesn't make us feel scared, we just think it's just a movie, it's bloody and disgusting. I saw a Hong Kong horror movie before. It told the story of several young people in the apartment who died one after another, and the ultimate murderer was always among these young people. I thought it was very scary. In addition, I watched the movie "Hide and Seek" in the previous stage, and I also found it very scary. From the perspective of a little girl, through the contest with her "father", she showed us the ugliness of the human heart, but these are not dirty. I think the current horror movies tend to have a lot of dirty scenes to show the ugliness of people. Someone listed the top ten banned films in the world, such as "I Spit on Your Grave", "Skin-cut Love", "Murder indiscriminately", "The Mermaid of the Sewer", 120 Days of Sodom, etc. I have seen it, but I learned from the introduction of the film that there are a lot of dirty ingredients in it, and most of them use the combination of pornography and violence to make us fall into the "dead end" where human nature cannot struggle, making us reflect on ourselves. Among them, is the more than 20-minute rape scene in "I Spit on Your Grave" intended to express evil enjoyment? At the end of the movie "Perfume", there is also a group sex scene of thousands of people. How shocking? In Confused Romance, necrophilia also hits our general sense of health. In short, I think the topic of "sex" is the most used by many directors. It stands to reason that this is a normal physiological need, but why is it interpreted as dirty? Even if it is like "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", I think it is very beautiful, although it is a child's fantasy of a prostitute, but I think it is normal. Speaking of violence, in "Love in the Skin", a woman with a beautiful appearance turned out to be a perverted murderer. Do women also have serious violent tendencies? Isn't "Anatomy of Hell" the most poetic porn that people say? At least it is much better than other movies that use violence to render pornography, such as the sexual abuse scenes in some Japanese pornographic films, how can a woman's sexual organs be used like that? In addition, one word about dirty is power, which must be more clearly explained in the movie "120 Days of Sodom". I personally think that we need to have a healthy aesthetic, and use poetic eyes to discover the beauty of poetry. Although the human heart is ugly and desires breed, we must also learn to cover up and avoid, or even escape and reject.
I don't want to elaborate on the last keyword "life". I think we have watched a lot of movies and can find that most of them have scenes of dead people. In "Revelation", we saw how despicable life is, and in "Apocalypse Now" we saw how helpless life is. In the movie "Eraser in My Brain", life is so elusive. The death of a person may be just a simple action, a long torture, or a heroic fight. After watching the movie "Black Hawk Down", I was very puzzled. American soldiers were very afraid of Somali terrorists, but they killed a lot of people. When their lives were threatened, either you died or I died. Life and love are both permanent topics worth exploring for human beings. We can’t say enough about them. In fact, it’s hard for us to make fun of life, and it’s hard to maximize the value of life’s existence.
Horror movie, are you scared? If we're really scared, it's just our hearts that are at work. In the movie "The Chainsaw", the protagonist saw off his own feet in order to escape. Isn't "self-mutilation" sometimes a kind of "salvation"? If we felt this, would we still be horrified by movies? Precisely and specifically, will we still be terrifying when we allow the horrors reflected in the movies to reflect upon the nature and desires of each of us?
