Thriller suspense is a genre that many audiences prefer, especially male audiences who pursue sensory stimulation, of course, suspense films are often accompanied by the reasoning and logic of the case, so as not to make the audience feel boring.
<h3 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > suspense thriller and Hitchcock
</h3>
When it comes to thriller crime films, it is necessary to mention that the famous British master director Hitchcock is the originator of this type of film.
This big director, who lived to the age of 81, has been in the industry for 60 years, but has left more than 50 movies, and its name has become synonymous with suspense and thriller.
Today, I plan to share with you his Oscar-nominated masterpiece, "Horror", which is based on The Psychopath of Robert Bolow.
Hitchcock bought the novel for $9,000, and Hitchcock, a classic film released in 1960, cost only $800,000, but was paid $15 million after its release.
A masterpiece with high cost and high returns, and the Douban score of the film is as high as 8.9, which is better than 98% of suspense films and 99% of thrillers.
Suspense thrillers and horror movies are not the same, most of these films do not have supernatural events, but there are many plots such as homicides, how to create an atmosphere to make the audience feel scared in the scene, this is what Hitchcock is best at.
After "Horror Story", the audience had a feeling of not watching it and was looking forward to a sequel, but until his death in 1980, the audience did not see the old man's sequel.
In 1983, Australian director Richard Franklin released "Horror 2", although the rating was only 7.7, not comparable to Hitchcock's version, but the audience still liked it.
In 1986, the American director Anthony Perkins self-directed "Shock 3", the director and actors were all replaced, the audience was not very favorite, Douban only 6.2 points.
In 1990, Anthony Perkins still starred, the director was replaced by Mick Garris, and they collaborated on "Shock 4", and the film's Douban score was still 6.2.
Because Hitchcock's version is older, and the other three sequels have not been seen by individuals, I will share with you the 1998 "98 Horrors" directed by Gus Van Sant!
This director has filmed "Mindcatcher" and other masterpieces that I like very much, although it is only 6.4 points, which is not enough to compete with hitchcock version, but the plot is relatively restored, and the master version is left for everyone to see for themselves, and here the spoiler-style focus is on the 98 version.
< h3 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > a night of horror
The heroine is a beautiful young woman who has a boyfriend who loves her, but the other party is obviously a poor boy, and the income has to be handed over to alimony, and the two have no hope of getting married.
She was a secretary, and one day her boss entrusted her with help depositing forty-five dollars in cash in the bank, and she actually had evil thoughts.
So he ran away with 400,000 cash, hoping to use the money to start a new life with his boyfriend.
She once parked her car on the side of the road and fell asleep on the side of the road because she was too sleepy to drive, and woke up with the police, although she checked the documents, but the police did not think she was a good person, so they followed her all the way.
In order to get rid of the police, she changed into a new car and continued to run.
When she arrived in a certain town, she encountered heavy rain, so she had no choice but to find a motel to stay first.
The innkeeper was a young man, and there was only her and the owner in the shop, who was very enthusiastic and not only brought her food, but also invited her to chat together.
But outside the hotel, the owner's house was right next to it, and she heard the boss arguing with a woman who seemed very reluctant to let her stay.
Later the boss said it was his mother, who was mentally ill.
During the chat, it was found that the boss spoke very extremely, and the heroine who felt a little afraid said that she was tired and sneaked into her room, and used a newspaper to pack four hundred thousand and put it on the cabinet, and there was a feeling that the most dangerous place was the safest.
When she unloaded her defenses and went into the bathroom to take a bath and sleep, she was stabbed to death by an old woman-like person, and she didn't have time to think about why and resist.
After that, the boss came, calmly disposed of the body, and drove the body along with the car to the nearby swamp and pushed it down, completely evaporating from the human world.
Later, a private investigator came to investigate the case and was also killed.
The heroine's sister and the heroine's boyfriend also came to the hotel to inquire, can the two succeed? In the motel, is it the boss or his mother who kills the person? The mystery is left to everyone to reveal!
<h3 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > prototype for the film
Although the film is adapted from a novel, the prototype of the novel is actually one of the most famous serial killers in the United States, Ed. The real case of Gaine.
The man who was born in 1906 and died in 1984, although he claimed to have committed only three murders, had committed murder, destruction of corpses, grave robbery and other bad acts.
His story is even more horrific, the police found 15 amputated female corpses in his home, he himself only admitted to digging out 8 from the grave, the skin of the corpse was made into "handicrafts", such as human skin sofas and so on.
He also has 10 female heads in his bedroom, and the lampshades, chairs, cushions, etc. in the house are made of human skin, and there are soup bowls made of human skulls.
There is a similar description in the movie "98 Horrors", except that the specimens in the hotel say that they are animals, but there are indeed leather producers in the basement.
In order to make these leather products shiny, Ed Gayn also smeared oil.
He made necklaces with his lips, vests and belts with organs, and, of course, the well-known mummified human skin mask, which he also put on lipstick.
So why is he so perverted?
It actually has to do with his mother, who was an avid Catholic who had taught him and his brother from an early age that women were dangerous, that it was sinful to like other women except his mother herself, and that she was going to hell.
My father was a drinking farmer who sometimes beat up his family.
The family was poor, and Gain grew up, and in addition to helping out on the farm, he would also go to the town to work as a temporary worker to earn some money.
Others thought he was a quiet, a little eccentric, but shy and kind, and he had never talked about a girlfriend or married at the age of 30 under his mother's education.
His father died at the age of 30, and soon his brother was killed in a fire.
Her mother then developed cancer and died of a stroke in December 1945.
Gain has no relatives, he grew up with no friends, lovers, children, and after the death of his family, he was alone with nothing.
Unwilling to acknowledge the fact of his mother's death, he not only cleaned her room, but also kept her body at home, sometimes walking around in her clothes.
This detail, the motel owner in the movie has also done this, disguised himself as a mother and killed people, and even a body lived with a mother and son.
Wanting to become a mother once and for all, Guyn stole the women's bodies and began digging up the newly buried tombs in the town, using the women's scalps and skins as tights.
He walked around his mother's room in a human leather coat as if her mother had never died.
Later, the corpse could not meet his needs, so he began to kill (3 people) and peel them, and the remains of the corpses were buried on his family's farm.
Later, because of the murder of the female owner of the hardware store, it happened that the other party's son was a policeman, and soon found Out on Gain's head.
After he was caught, he was found innocent after being diagnosed with chronic mental disorder for perverted crimes, but had to spend the rest of his life in a mental hospital.
He died of cancer in 1984 and was buried next to his mother.
Gain's deeds shocked the United States and even the world at that time, because of his deeds of the film adaptation, not only "Horror", other crime films such as "Red Dragon", "Silence of the Lambs", "Texas Chainsaw Killer" and other crime films, there are his shadow.
At the end of the movie "98 Horrors", the double personality of the innkeeper was also startling me, and when I watched the movie, I really felt that it was a mother and son crime, the strange mother killed people, and the helpless son could only dispose of the corpse to help the mother cover up the truth.
But the ending is that mother and son are the same person, the mother has been dead for many years, and the body is well placed in the basement, so frightening.
But compared to the movie, the real Gain is really chilling, which also makes people see how important the education of parents is for children, and many criminals are caused by the extremely distorted education of parents.
So don't think that parents are irresponsible without exams, please do a good job of parenthood!
