A trailer is completely on fire these days.
There's no fancy star cast, there's not even a release date, there's just the ultimate horror.
In just two minutes, it almost sent me away.

American Horror Story: Two Sides Season 10
American Horror Story: Double Feature Season 10
2021.8.25 USA
American Horror Story (hereinafter referred to as American Horror) is a horror series created by ghost director and screenwriter Ryan Murphy.
Premiered in 2011, it has now reached its tenth season, won a total of 16 Emmy Awards, and is recognized as a national longevity drama.
The theme of each season is independent of each other, and occasionally the "American Fear Universe" Easter egg linkage.
New viewers can chase from scratch, or they can pick topics of interest and freely enter the pit.
Murder House, Psychiatric Hospital, Witch Gathering, Deformity Show, Hotel, Loianok, Cult, Apocalypse, 1984
The series has a fixed cast, and the lineup is basically the same every season, but the role is different.
This season's "Quicksilver" Ed Bevins" and "Banana Sister" Sarah Paul Senrey returned without moving;
"Little Devils" Macaulay Calkin joined for the first time.
The theme "double-sided" refers to the two-film simulcast event common in American theaters in the 1950s.
As the name suggests, the entire season of "American Fear 10" is divided into two.
The first half of the season of "Red Tide" focuses on vampires, which takes place on the beach;
The second half of the season of Death Valley focuses on aliens and takes place in the desert.
In the concept trailer, vampires and alien gods and demons fight each other, love and kill each other, and how to look at it is not like the brain hole opened by carbon-based creatures.
It seems that affected by the epidemic and missed the "American Fear 10" in 2020, this time it has finally amplified the move -
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="77" >>>>> a vampire by the sea</h1>
The first half of the season of "Red Tide" is set in modern times.
Screenwriter Harry, who was stuck in a writing trap, moved to a remote seaside town with his pregnant wife and daughter.
The family of three is not only for the vacation, but also to hide from Qingjing to help Harry finish the script as soon as possible.
"The inspired father takes a family of three on vacation" is clearly a tribute to The Shining
But as soon as he moved into the town, a pale, eerie madman roared at Harry:
"Get out of this town!"
"Sister Banana" plays Karen with tuberculosis
Although residents explained that the madman named Tuberculosis Karen did not have malicious intent.
But Harry gradually realized:
Something is wrong with the town.
When harry first arrived, he found two horribly dead bodies on the beach.
The police are not surprised, only that it is normal.
Positives are uncoded
The wife takes her daughter for a walk in the town.
Passing by the cemetery, a white-skinned bald head sneaked up.
Even following them to the door of the house, even the police did not investigate deeply.
Harry's restless life left Harry uninspired, so he had to go to the bar to change his mood.
Unexpectedly, I came across two well-known writers of the previous generation here.
They are also tourists from afar, and they come to the town every winter to write about materials.
They handed Harry a packet of black pills.
Claiming that by eating this pill, Harry would have a constant supply of inspiration and creativity.
"Grandma Death" plays an adult fiction writer and "Quicksilver" plays a drama writer
The pill went down and the door to a new world opened.
Harry Wen, who had taken the pill, was full of thoughts, and he was frantically tapping the keyboard without sleep, writing the peak of his career.
Seeing the green light of the script, Harry finally waited for the opportunity to get ahead.
At the same time, however, he seemed to have changed.
He was dismissive of the food his wife bought, but he was keen to buy raw meat and drink blood.
His wife's fingers were injured, and he couldn't stop himself from getting them, sucking like a treasure.
Both his increasingly manic personality and his almost morbid thirst for blood made Harry realize:
He became a "vampire"...
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="144" >>>>> atypical vampire tablets</h1>
Seeing the three words "vampire", I think many viewers inhaled a cool breath and rolled their eyes and flew up.
Vampire movies have been around for a hundred years since the release of the first vampire horror film, Northferatu, in 1922.
Film history classics are in the front, and derivative types are all-encompassing.
It is difficult to shoot the heart; it is more difficult to shoot the new.
Nosferatu
Fortunately, "Red Tide" did not fall into the trap.
Although the play is full of pale bloodthirsty creatures, the actual "vampire" is just a cover.
In the play, the "ghost set" is not afraid of the sun, has no immortality, does not rely on vampires to pass on to people, and does not have fancy superpowers.
They are called bloodsuckers, not vampires.
"Vampires" originated from drugs that locals accidentally discovered while developing drugs.
Drugs provide inspiration for artistic creation and also consume a certain substance in the blood in large quantities, resulting in bloodthirsty cravings.
Like a catalyst for inspiration, medicine works only for gifted artists.
Otherwise, you will only be hungry like the walking dead on the street, and you will never be satisfied with inspiration.
Whether approaching science or pseudoscience, alternative "ghost settings" have built a reasonable "vampire" ecology for the town.
"Vampires" take the initiative to go out to forage for food in order to get a steady stream of inspiration.
Never harm the residents of the town, only go to the neighboring town to hunt and kill the marginal people of society such as thieves and drug dealers.
The townspeople turn a blind eye to the "vampire".
Residents acquiesced to the existence of "vampires" and did not violate the river water as long as they did not endanger themselves.
The town is harmonious and the people are simple.
>>>> real prototype
When it comes to small towns, it's time to talk about the realistic prototype of the plot.
Each season of "American Terror" alternates the realistic prototype of the original story, which is both its source of inspiration and the key to its puzzle solving.
For example, the first season recreated the infamous California corpse splitting case "Black Dahlia".
The second season recreates the prototypes of "The Silence of the Lambs" and "Texas Chainsaw Killer", "Bloodface Killer" Edward Gaine.
When it comes to "Red Tide", we have to start from the small town.
The town in the play is Provincetown, Massachusetts, USA.
Located at the top of the Cape Cod Peninsula and surrounded by the sea on three sides, Provinceston is a holiday destination in the eastern United States.

The emperor is far away, the remote town flaunts openness and freedom, and the rainbow flags flutter in the streets and alleys.
At the same time, it also brings together many marginalized people in the name of freedom who are addicted to sex, violence and drugs.
The face is bright and bright, and the bone drugs are rampant, like the epitome of the United States:
There is both a cultural background that does not refuse to come to tourists, and a social characteristic that is helpless against drugs.
Provincetown
In history, There is no shortage of mysteries in Provinston, and there are many innuendos in the play.
Macaulay's character in the play mentions that he knew the extras from the movie Jaws.
Here is a tribute to "The Mystery of the Lady Dune".
In the 1970s, an unnamed female body was found in the Sand Dunes of Provinceston and named "Lady Dune".
Over the decades, her appearance has been restored, but her identity has never been confirmed.
Lady Dune
In 2015, Stephen King's son, Joe Hill, claimed to have seen Madame Dune in Jaws.
It happened that when Mrs. Dune was killed, "Jaws" was filming locally.
The truth about Lady Dune may lead to an explanation from this character.
In the play, Harry's mention of a Truro serial murder case is not a false reference.
Here is a reference to the famous American serial killer Tony Costa.
In the 1960s, Costa, who worked as a baby nanny, killed eight women locally.
The eight bodies were covered with traces of Costa's bite and bloodsucking, and the media called him a "cod horn vampire".
In his autobiography, he mentioned that he had taken drugs with his victims and had killed them in the drug.
Blood sucking + drugs, Costa's killing method may be repeated in the nightmare in the subsequent plot.
Tony Costa
What may be overlooked is karen of tuberculosis interpreted by the disfigurement of banana sister next door in the play.
In the 18th century, a vicious disease was prevalent in the United States, and the patient with the fever was pale and his eyes were sunken, as if the blood in his body had been sucked away.
It is believed that this is the work of vampires, which has set off a superstitious movement to hunt vampires.
It was only in recent times that scientists discovered that this was just a symptom of tuberculosis.
The name "Tuberculosis Karen" is both a homage to the legend of a native American vampire and perhaps a hint of her misunderstood fate.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="265" > tuberculosis Karen >>>> vampire non-ghost</h1>
At the end of the conversation, the expression core of "Red Tide" is naturally ready to come out.
The "vampires" in the play are the result of active human choice.
In the name of artistic creation, they are attracted by the worldly desire for success, willing to abandon the bottom line of human nature and become bloodthirsty monsters.
The so-called blood sucking, in fact, is drug use, which is nothing more than a drug addiction called "desire".
Life and death are fundamental, and desire is the first.
Everyone has the desire to get ahead, but no matter when and where, it is inevitable that someone will give up the bottom line for success.
Once-in-a-lifetime child star Macaulay played a rather self-deprecating artist with a very low talent.
Knowing that taking the pill is likely to be doomed, he still has the luck to try the method by himself.
Ask yourself, how many people in reality have the courage to refuse the opportunity to exchange their soul for success? And how many people just want to negotiate a good price?
For the sake of desire to destroy the original heart and purity, perhaps this is the real horror of "Red Tide".
"American Fear 10" aired two episodes, the pace is tight, the amount of information is large, and the plot is still in doubt (slight spoilers):
The daughter who witnessed Harry's change could not resist the temptation to secretly eat the pill.
Will a daughter who is not talented in the eyes of her family be reduced to the walking dead?
Seeing that the family of three is "full of loyal martyrs", the father and daughter have both become "vampires".
Can a wife who is pregnant with Rokko be left alone? Will the baby that is about to be born survive the covetousness of the vampire demon?
Tuberculosis Karen is sandwiched between residents and "vampires" and is seen as a destabilizing factor.
Will she blacken or counterattack? Will the female "vampire" who flashed in the trailer be a portrayal of her ending?
Don't forget, "Red Tide" is only the first half of the season of "American Fear 10".
The second half of the season of Death Valley will revolve around Death Valley, a legendary American secret alien research base with the same name as Area 51.
Will the alien plot fill the big hole dug by "American Terror 2"?
The aliens of "Fear of America 2" are a glimpse
Does the concept poster in which the vampire and alien tongue kiss delivery pills indicate that the pills will become a bridge between the plot of the first and second half of the season?
"Fear of America 10" has just begun, let's look for answers in the play.
