Chapter 655: A Peaceful Death
"Finally... The father should have taken them out of here at the end. ”
"But Sansa, that father seems to be a little out of sorts."
Caroli could hear the discussion between the two behind her.
The best ending of the movie that Caroli could imagine was for the father to flee with his wife and son.
But just by looking at those suggestive shots and plot hints, Carol had already guessed the next development.
My father has long been bewitched by ghosts, so much so that his behavior has become a little crazy!
When the camera pans to the little boy lying on the bed in a daze, the background music becomes harsh and oppressive again, the word 'murder' is written in scarlet on the door, and the surging blood water sweeps the hallway again.
At this moment, the surrounding discussion stopped again.
The audience has a psychological preparation, that is, the psychological preparation for something terrifying to jump out at any time.
Caroli vaguely heard someone holding their breath, in fact... She also held her breath.
But no... There were no more scary shots in the back.
It was just that the somewhat irascible father and his wife had a disagreement over the opinion of 'leaving the manor and staying here', and then a heated argument ensued.
'I'm not going to let you mess up my life again!' ’
After yelling at her in this way, the father left the room and walked through the basement, violently pushing everything to the ground.
This scene is also suitable for all kinds of ghosts and ghosts, but the next second the camera pans again, and my father is in a richly decorated corridor.
Is something coming out of nowhere?
Caroli tensed her nerves as she began to imagine the next horrific scene.
Is it a ghost? Or a rotting corpse? Or is it a skeleton?
But nothing... The father on the screen arrives in the ballroom, where there are no undead spirits, but a lavish aristocratic ball going on.
The ball was full of nobles dressed luxuriously and reservedly.
"Aren't there a lot of people here? Herland... You don't have to be afraid of those ghosts, right? ”
Sansa whispered to Herlan next to her.
A lot of people?
No... No, Caroli looked at the lavish dance on the screen and suddenly realized that 'there were only three people in the manor, and that is the family!' ’
So where did this group of people come from? There is only one explanation... All of them are ghosts!
Realizing this, Caroli instantly hugged her legs and curled up.
The male protagonist on the screen is participating in a... A feast of ghosts!
As Carolie had expected, the father played by Sir Thorn went completely insane, surrendering his soul to a ghost, or some kind of monster, and picking up an axe to go after his wife and children.
The moment he slashed the wooden door with an axe, there was a scream in the audience every time he slashed it, and the axe seemed to become the conductor's baton of the orchestra, and each swing would get a high note from a female singer.
Caroli is officially one of the female virtuosos, and later in the film, she has forgotten how many times she screamed.
Caroli is starting to regret that she should have disobeyed her mother's orders and get out of here!
Fuya was right... That's right, she shouldn't have come to see this movie.
………………
For two long hours, when the behind-the-scenes cast appeared on the screen, there was no one in the entire screening room applauding.
I could only faintly hear the sobs of someone in the audience.
Mrs. Nishizawa glanced around at the audience's reactions.
Normally, after the premiere of a movie, the audience should stand up and applaud, which is the most basic etiquette.
Whether it was the premiere of "This Demon Is Not Too Cold" or the premiere of "Hachiko the Loyal Dog", although most of the audience had tears in their eyes, they still stood up to congratulate the birth of this wonderful movie.
But this time, no one took the lead in congratulating on the set of "The Shining", and the surrounding was so quiet that it was terrifying, and the appearance of this movie was like a curse.
Everyone who has seen the movie has fallen under the curse called fear, and Mrs. Nishizawa takes one look at her daughter, who has never seen such a fragile Caroli.
As the Flower of Fallosis, although she usually likes to do some childish pranks, Caroli still has the pride of being the Flower of Fallosi, and she knows that she must maintain her perfect demeanor at all times.
But now Caroli didn't, as if she had changed back to the little girl who had been hiding in her arms to fall asleep.
"Mr. Qiao Xiu, why... Want to make this kind of film? ”
Mrs. Nishizawa took Caroly's hand and turned her head sideways to look at Qiao Xiu and asked.
"Is there anything wrong?"
Qiao Xiu really couldn't think of how to answer Mrs. Nishizawa for a while, and he couldn't say, 'I filmed it just to be scary'.
"The Shining brings only fear and anxiety to the audience, and this is not the emotion that a performance brings to the audience."
Mrs. Nishizawa has been involved in stage plays for so many years, and the purest goal of all the plays she writes is to make the audience feel happy and moved, and fear and nausea are the elements that need to be avoided the most.
"Why?"
Qiao Xiu had intended to take a few minutes to listen to the viewing experience of the Black Swan Theater Troupe's administrator.
"If the emotions of watching movies are regarded as commodities, the audience is more willing to spend money to buy 'happiness' and 'touch', and no one will be willing to spend money to buy fear." Mrs. Nishizawa said.
"Nobody wants to pay for fear, but let me correct you, Mrs. Nishizawa, The Shining brings not only fear to the audience, but also the thrill that comes after that."
Qiao Xiu actually doesn't quite understand why some people like to watch horror movies, and he doesn't even understand why he watches such movies that scare him so much that he can't sleep at night.
But... Qiao Xiu just wants to watch it, and occasionally likes to pull his friends to watch it together.
The reason for this is that Qiao Xiu pondered carefully, that is, a large part of the essence of human beings has the existence of the word 'death', or 'curiosity'.
"Mrs. Nishizawa, are you afraid of snakes?" Qiao Xiu asked suddenly.
"Fear, especially highly toxic breeds." Mrs. Nishizawa chose to answer Qiao Xiu truthfully.
"I'm scared too, but if there's a viper in front of me, and it's separated by a glass that's thick enough, I'll come up and watch, it's called curiosity."
Qiao Xiu said that at this point, there was already scattered applause in the screening hall.
The audience had already recovered from the fear just now, and subconsciously applauded.
"And Mrs. Nishizawa, my purpose in making movies was never for the box office, the premiere is over, and I still have some things to do, so I left first."
After saying goodbye to Caroli, Qiao Xiu walked out of the screening room with Ciri.
"You seem to be smiling a lot." Ciri whispered as she followed Qiao Xiu's side.
"Is there one?"
Qiao Xiu touched his cheek, when the premiere ended just now, Qiao Xiu was already trying his best to suppress the expression on his face.
"Well, I've done this before."
Ciri trotted in front of Qiao Xiu and then turned to Qiao Xiu.
"It's fun to take my sister to an abandoned manor and watch her be frightened by the ghosts inside."
"Have you ever done such an excesses to your sister?"
Qiao Xiu finally understood why Herlan was scared like that.
"At that time, I helped my sister chase away the ghosts!" Ciri said.
During Qiao Xiu's conversation with Ciri, the audience in the screening hall also walked out one after another.
"Mr. Qiao Xiu, do we really want to use this poster for tomorrow's debut?"
Sir White Vitex walked briskly in front of Qiao Xiu and asked.
"It's better to change to a more realistic poster, and by the way, please watch this reminder for young children accompanied by their parents."
Qiao Xiu glanced at the yellow-clothed person and Sofina who walked out of the screening hall, if Sofina came to participate in the premiere alone today, the scene would definitely be in a panic.
Although there were some accidents in the middle of the premiere of "The Shining", the audience's response made Qiao Xiu very satisfied, and the rest is to wait for the official release tomorrow to test the tolerance of the audience in this world.
