This year is the year of horror movie explosion again.
"Joker Returns", the highest-grossing film in the history of horror films, has made a comeback, "We" produced by the "Escape from Desperate Town" team has also launched a charge against the champion throne of "it", and "Annabelle 3" is also rubbing its fists.
There are also two blockbuster horror films that grossed over $100 million, "The Curse of the Weeping Woman" and a remake of the new "Pet Graveyard."
As a horror film iron fan, Uncle Meat looked at the film list and burst out a burst of laughter.
Today, Uncle Meat first talks to everyone about the "Pet Cemetery" that was the first to drive.
Long before its release, it was designated as the top three horror films of 2019 by Atom magazine in the United States.

Pet Sematary
Whether it's the 1989 edition or this year's new edition, Pet Graveyard is based on the 1983 novel of the same name, Pet Cemetery.
The author...
After graduating from college, he felt that the salary was too low, and decided to do something that did not require capital - writing novels, and accidentally writing "Modern Thriller Master (New York Times" review) steven King.
There is an old gold book as the foundation, no doubt -
Scary enough.
Don't believe uncle meat on the two GIFs you feel, what is the heart frightened.

Old King himself said that when he wrote his first horror novel, "The Long Road", he was already convinced:
The best fiction is both propulsive and violent. Usually, literature focuses on extraordinary characters in ordinary situations, but I prefer ordinary people in extraordinary situations.
Let's put it this way, in Uncle Meat's view, remembering this monologue basically holds the key to opening the door to the horror of Old Jin's works.
For example, "Pet Graveyard".
This is an ordinary family.
Dr. Louis, with his wife and a pair of children, is regular and ordinary.
They have just moved to a new home.
The house is a big thief, and when the agent sells the house, he also gives them a large piece of woodland behind the house.
Well, this house is a bit abnormal.
Look at the picture:
The detached house is surrounded by a lush forest, which is obviously sunny, but how to see how to feel gloomy.
Louis's family had just arrived at their new home, and before they could sit down, there was a loud bang in the woods behind them.
A truck sped over the woodland.
Well.
In this woodland, there is a small town's "pet cemetery"——
After the pets in the nearby family die, the small animals will be buried here.
However, it is obviously such a warm scene of small animal hospice care, in this...
A group of little farts, wearing animal masks, did not say a word, and walked slowly into the woods.
It's like a ritual sacrifice.
The family didn't do anything wrong until her daughter Ellie's birthday, when her beloved cat Churchill died tragically under the relentless wheels of a big truck.
Judd, the old man next door who has lived here all his life, likes the little girl Ellie, and seeing that Ellie likes Churchie so much, he especially wants to comfort and comfort her.
thereupon.
When Chuggy was buried, he dragged Louis deep into the hinterland of the pet cemetery, where he buried it.
A miracle happened.
Louis, a doctor, saw Churchie get knocked out of shape and buried himself, 100% sure he was dead.
but.
Ellie said, "Mom and Dad, you see, Churchie is in my closet!"
Hey?
That's right, he was blind, and Churchie was resurrected.
However, the resurrected kitten Chuji seemed to have changed into a cat.
It was dirty with blood, it stinked, and...
Become super fierce.
Scratched Ellie, who liked it the most, ate birds in bed when people were two people (go and go, it was a live, real bird), and even squatted fiercely on the baby's crib.
An ordinary family, in a pet cemetery where corpses can be resurrected, fight against a Wraith Cat.
Where's the horror?
Cemetery? Or the Wraith Cat?
Neither.
Don't forget, old Kim said that the best fiction (horror) is the explosion after the advance.
To the plot of Churchie's resurrection, it is just the wedge of this horror story.
Its real horror lies in the layers of advancement.
Look closely at the clues —
After Ellie went to the pet cemetery for the first time, she asked her parents if she died meant that she was completely gone.
In order to soothe her little heart, her mother coaxed her to say:
After death, although the body is buried in the ground, the soul will continue to be on earth, and finally ascend to heaven and look at you in heaven.
Again.
Louis's wife often has nightmares about her sister who died prematurely.
Blame the old man Judd's house, the most conspicuous place is the picture of his dead wife.
That's right, the horror of "Pet Graveyard" advances, here —
The pet cemetery can revive my favorite cat.
that.
Can it resurrect my favorite...
You see.
After laying the groundwork in place, the outbreak is naturally logical——
Fierce gods, evil spirits, powerful ghosts, evil spirits.
Uncle Meat will not spoil who is dead and who is alive, after showing you a terrible picture, we will continue to talk about something else.
Horror is never all old Kim.
He himself said:
My characters are not without hope, but even our sweetest hopes can sometimes be in vain, and often so. And when we don't do it or deliberately avoid difficulties, hell follows.
We've been in the dark long enough. There is a completely different world upstairs. As soon as you grab my hand, I'll happily bring you back into the sunshine.
What does it mean?
The average horror movie, riveted enough to scare you, slammed into the screen to throw a blast point.
Old King's horror movies aren't.
In addition to blowing you up in the face, he wants to help you find out what you are most afraid of.
It's the sweetest hope.
The first time Ellie entered the pet cemetery and asked her parents where their dead loved ones were, the two of them had their own opinions.
One stubbornly believes that loved ones are still watching us from heaven.
One shook his head and retorted, dead is dead, nothing left.
But anyway, both of them admitted: those who left, could not come back.
Even if it is resurrection.
Just like Churchie.
In fact, Louis knew in his heart that Churchie, who had come back from the dead, was no longer the original kitten, it was a monster.
After being attacked again by Churchie, Louis barely went through much mental obstacle before abandoning the monster Churchie at the entrance to the pet graveyard.
It's simple.
It is the relatives who have left, can he still be so calm?
No.
His only "sweet hope" is to let him come back—
even if.
Even if it's just monsters with the same appearance.
What is really frightening is that under the dry and beautiful words of "sweet hope", there is a sticky feeling of unwillingness, reluctance, and reluctance.
Standing in the stickiness is a weak self who cannot face the hard reality.
- The so-called heart demon.
Once you've felt the magic of that place, you'll find ways to persuade yourself to get back there
I'm wrong, and sometimes it's better to die completely
Therefore, Louis will go from his sleep to the pet graveyard again and again.
No doubt.
It was Louis himself who let himself into fear.
note.
"Pet Graveyard" is not simply about how to face the death of a loved one.
You can radicalize it into a career, a love, a departure from a friend.
How do you say goodbye?
Is it knowing that it is futile, but it is still sticky and slippery to forcibly retain it?
Or if that's the case, then wave goodbye with a refreshing and warm wave.
No need to say anything more about Uncle Meat.
You know.
The really terrible pet graveyard is not in that woodland.
In your heart.
This ghost place, the more sad you are, the more powerful it is, lingering in your mind for a long time can not be dissipated.
