Played "Discover witch" and "After the Lights Off" horror film actress Teresa Palmer starred in the new film "The Twin". The film is the latest production of the Production Team of Lake Bodom and the first English pronunciation film by Finnish box office director Taneli Mustonen. The film is about a couple who encounter a series of unpredictable evil effects after losing one of their twins and a family of three who go to the suburbs to heal their injuries.
Just like "Hereditary", which combines the concepts of Rosemary's Baby and Midsommar, it not only sold the film's international rights to more than 30 countries, but also became the third most popular Finnish film in Finnish film history; the film project has even been awarded the "Best Picture" by the Bucheon International Fantasy Film Festival and the Finnish Film Festival in South Korea. Finnish cinema praises it even more: "This high-profile horror film, through the exploration of sadness, tells a larger theme and brings a unique twist to the genre."
Finland's Twins is the third-most popular Finnish film in Finnish history after the famous director Aki Kaurismaki's Le Havre, and the acclaimed Lake Ofurity director Tanery Mustonin, his first English pronunciation film.
The film depicts a mother who must face the unbearable cruelty of her surviving twin sons. She not only has to uncover the truth about her son's suffering, but also to fight against the evil forces that are trying to take his son. The director said of his work: "In essence, it is a story about how living in denial ultimately overwhelms people. How to protect loved ones may ultimately cause them the greatest harm. The most destructive prisons are those that surround the ones they build. However, people can still be happy in it. If it's not pure terror, I don't know what else is horror."
In particular, the film takes tragedy as flesh and blood, and terror as the skeleton, reminiscent of "Genetic Doom"; there are also creepy cult elements in the film, and more film critics compare this film to the new generation of "Rosemary's Baby" and "A Midsummer Night's Horror". Directors who have children themselves add: "Nowadays, in a lot of horror films, we use sadness, loss as a means, and then the characters experience all kinds of fears. It's not easy to talk about these parenting problems, because when you learn that your child will enter your life, this worry will naturally arise."
Interestingly, the director of "Twins" confessed that he was afraid of ghosts, but he liked to watch horror movies: "Especially in the cinema, I usually sit in the back row, and when I raise my hands, no one can see that I am covering my eyes." 」 His 2016 film, Lake Bourdon, became one of Finland's best-selling films internationally. The film was not only selected for the South by Southwest Film Festival in the United States, the Bucheon Fantasy Film Festival in South Korea, and the competition unit of the Sitges Film Festival in Spain, but also gave praise to major international media.
The director revealed the original idea for the launch of Twins: "After "Lake Bourdain", we were invited to participate in the Bucheon Fantasy Film Festival in South Korea. The staff said, "There's a movie market here, you can share your next horror film project here, do you want to participate?" And it got me thinking, 'Wow! Can I make another horror film?" So we came up with the original plan for this film over there." The director's creativity was also recognized, not only winning the SOUTH Korea Bucheon Fantasy Film Festival NEFF Project Award, but also winning the "Best Picture" of the Finnish Film Affairs Association! Finnish Film Affairs will be even more praised: "This high-profile horror film, through the exploration of sadness, tells a larger theme and brings a unique twist to the genre." "Twins" has been able to stand out in every way, and it is a movie that can be widely circulated on different platforms."
"Twins" depicts a tragic accident that takes the precious life of one of the twins, and also allows Rachel (Teresa Palmer) and her husband Anthony (Steven Kerry) to move from the United States to the other side of the world with their surviving son, Elliott, hoping to start a new life. They initially recovered in the quiet countryside, but soon had ominous ominous signs. At this point, Elliot tells Rachel that his brother, who was already dead, is pestering him. Can Rachel find out what makes Elliot miserable and try to fight this evil force?
