Yes, it is the mockumentary horror film Kunchiyan, which was popular in South Korea a while ago. This low-budget horror film has become the box office champion of previous weeks in South Korea with its highly telepresence and more discussions on social networks.
The cost of others is only about 2.4 billion won (65.438+0.4 million RMB), and the film returned to its original place four days after its release.
And we also had this film here the day before yesterday. It is estimated that many people went to see it. At least several of my film groups are talking about their first feelings of watching this film.
I have seen similar comments in several other film groups, which makes people more interested in this film.
Especially before my WeChat headline, I also specially pushed this movie, and it is estimated that some people still remember it.
Yes, that's the movie that scared her away from the cinema after watching it for more than 70 minutes.
Of course, her strong reaction at that time was really largely because she saw it in the cinema. It must be admitted that a sister and a person watching horror movies in the cinema all admit psychological pressure. It's much bigger than those of us who are at home, watching horror movies on the computer with the lights on.
The experience is inevitably greatly discounted.
Feel her description of the situation at that time, and so on.
And these days, because you can't watch it in the cinema, you can only use other channels, and the sense of natural terror will be much weaker.
Besides, this is a movie that needs to be experienced.
The title of Hong Kong is quite handsome. The madhouse arrested them one by one. This basically explains the plot. Kunchiyan refers to an abandoned mental hospital in rural Korea, claiming to be one of the seven most horrible shrines in the world certified by CNN.
It is said that all the mental patients in it died and the dean committed suicide.
You see, there are all kinds of evil elements such as suicide, mental illness, abandonment and curse. No wonder this place has become one of the scariest shrines. At the same time, such a setting will also make the audience have high expectations for the horror of this film.
At the same time, several protagonists in the film are a group of young people who are keen on terror and adventure. Like all horror movies, this group of young people who are so eager to die decided to go to that mysterious horror shrine and start a horror experiment.
In the end, of course, it was a ghost.
As far as the plot itself is concerned, Kunchiyan actually has nothing to say.
The highlight of this film is actually the way it was shot. That is, a fake documentary horror film.
Since the Blair Witch Project, more and more mockumentary horror films have been born. For example, Hollywood's box office record "Clever: A Ghost", or the equally horrible haunted house experience "Encounter in the Graveyard", and "All Evil" which has not been released in the Mainland.
The main selling point of this kind of horror film is the sense of existence.
Through DV, mobile phones, surveillance cameras ... all kinds of simple and portable equipment, it can add realism to the home video, let the audience better enter that situation and increase the degree of fright.
In Kunchiyan, the equipment that works is Gopro. It is also because this Gopro has a perspective to shoot their facial expressions, allowing us to see all kinds of ferocious expressions, all kinds of big nostrils and all kinds of distorted faces. It also makes many people vomit. The scariest part of this movie is actually the distorted faces of several protagonists shot by Gopro.
But this sense of presence is still very effective. At least, for those who have seen it in the cinema, such a movie really surprised them.
Of course, for those of us who are watching the insect rock with headlights on and computers, we may have to jump out of the sense of terror and talk about plot setting, character logic and horror routines.
It is precisely because of this that most of Douban's comments in the last two days are Chinese-oriented, and more people say that this horror film is far from the legendary horror!
This is also the biggest regret of this kind of horror film with the purpose of scaring. If the audience doesn't have the right situation and can't really integrate into the horror atmosphere of the film, the acceptance of the horror elements will be greatly reduced.
You will feel that it is far from the expected horror.
So under our current observation conditions. "Kunchiyan" may not bring his fright to the extreme, so it's not surprising that you don't think it's scary.
Where is the location of the movie Kunchiyan?
Ranked first among the three haunted houses in South Korea is Kunchiyan Mental Hospital in Guangzhou, Gyeonggi Province.
The hospital in this mountain has been abandoned for many years, with mottled exterior walls and dilapidated interior.
On the Internet, there are various descriptions of its horror. The hospital used to be a prison, and many prisoners died. The shopkeeper disappeared after the dean committed suicide. In fact, after the dean's death, all the children had emigrated, so the hospital was neglected and could not be used. Moreover, demolition required a lot of money and land sales required high taxes and fees, so it has been abandoned to this day.
According to the local government departments and the police, there was no murder here. Because of its reputation here, it has attracted many bold explorers. They often come to experience haunted houses at night, and the noise and garbage brought by them seriously affect the lives of nearby residents, and they complain a lot about it. To this end, the police surrounded the hospital with barbed wire and set up warning signs. I didn't expect this to deepen the terror here. The police had to arrange manpower to conduct inspections at night to stop these "brave".
This haunted house once appeared in the TV series "Signal" of tvn, as a scene of a mental hospital in the play. In fact, it was once used as a mental hospital.
