Wen Ziren's return to the small cost of "Fatal Induction" is the most unmissable thriller in recent years, Wen Ziren said it himself when making this movie, he knew that he might not have time to direct such a personal film in the future, he wanted to make an original, not inspired by other IP projects, but at the same time reflect the characteristics of all the movies that have influenced him, "Fatal Induction" is made for those horror fans who have been supporting him. Wen Ziren said the movie was like he was saying to the hardcore horror fans — hey, I haven't forgotten about you, because I've always been one of you.
Because of this feeling, "Fatal Induction" seems very pure, from the music, story to the picture with a "bad quality", which belongs to the characteristics of Italian lead yellow films, ingenious murder weapons, leather gloves, these elements are familiar props in the hardcore fan group, and the concept of twins is actually not new at all, but for modern audiences, it is full of hunting taste.
Will Fatal Induction make a sequel? At least Wen Ziren, who has long been entangled in various big projects, did not have such plans at the beginning, saying that he did not know whether he would have time to shoot such crazy and unscrupulous works in the future, so he would make full use of this opportunity. However, judging from the recent interviews of the protagonist Annabella Wallis, the sequel is still very likely to happen, and she said that in view of the good response of the film, the discussion of the sequel is already underway, so gabriel may return in the future.
Of course, even if there is a sequel, the possibility that Wen Ziren can return to directing himself is not too big.
Another Wen Ziren executive project has also been confirmed recently, a live-action series based on the comic book "Nocterra", which is a thriller action comic that has just been launched this year, launched by Image Comics, Scott Snyder, Tony Berger. Co-created by S. Daniel, it tells the story of a world shrouded in something called "shades", a substance that can turn living things into monsters, and the protagonist of the story is named Val · Val Riggs, she is a "ferryman" who is responsible for smuggling people or items around the world.
Wen Ziren's "Atomic Monster" studio will participate in the production of this series, and Wen Ziren will correspondingly serve as the supervising producer of this series, but like other projects in which Wen Ziren is the supervising producer, his participation in this project should not be too high, many projects are named Wen Ziren, most of which are actually because of the participation of original monsters. I haven't seen the comic, but it sounds like the story is still quite interesting. Wasteland, monsters, two very attractive elements.
