Chapter 257: Opening the coffin

As the camera slammed forward, the image on the screen blurred and darkened, and then it recovered, and the camera shook very much, sweeping the concerned faces of the two Cotton in front of them, and the photographer's voice rang out: "I'm fine, the camera is fine." ”

The audience was able to exhale, only for the photographer to fall, thinking he had been killed.

The camera swept down the pile of blood on the snow, and did not say whose it was, like the photographer's, or maybe Maggie left it.

"Keep looking. Cotton said. As soon as the camera arrived, they arrived at the snow-covered grove, and there was no sign of Maggie in a sweep, and the female recording engineer looked around anxiously and said, "It's getting dark, we need to find Switzer before she returns." ”

When they stood next to the car parked in the far side of the ancient house, it was dark, not the real night scene of the "day and night" style in the car before, Cotton turned on a strong flashlight, and the three members of the film crew discussed: "She may have left the farm a long time ago." "Like last night. "What should I do?"

The camera pans to a pickup truck back to the farm from the left side of the screen, and through the lowered window of Guò, Switzer's angry face can be seen, "You're still here!"

The headlights of the pickup truck illuminated the surroundings of the road, and suddenly a figure appeared on the screen, not far from the side of the road opposite Cotton and the others, Maggie! She stood barefoot on the snow, her face expressionless, and the snowflakes fell on her long hair and the blood-stained gray dress.

"She's there!" exclaimed the female recording engineer. By this time, the pickup van had already passed by, and they hurriedly ran towards Maggie, but she turned and ran again.

"Maggie, stand, Maggie!" Cotton shouted.

"Mr. Pastor, it seems that you still don't believe in my existence. An eerie screeching sound came from afar.

In the exclamation of the film team, and also in the nervous hearts of the audience, the camera was pushed closer, and the flashlight light was turned on, only to see Maggie at the far end of the head first tilted back, and then the upper body was broken and reversed, the upside-down face was crooked, as if there was a crackling sound effect, and the female recording engineer was frightened voiceover: "Oh my God." ”

Viewers like Debbie, who were first attracted by the viral marketing video "Demon Girl's Extreme Body Twist", were all slightly stunned, and finally came!

Maggie pressed her hands into the snow, arching the bridge, like a tribute to the classic shot of Regan climbing down the stairs in "The Exorcist", she didn't climb, she stood upside down, jumped up and continued to run forward, constantly with some terrible twists, and suddenly looked back again, with a cold face, brown eyes, full of resentful eyes, trembling slightly, and her expression gradually became hideous.

"It's typical hysteria, she thinks she's been overrun by demons......" Cotton's panicked voiceover, running into the camera, "Demons, I order you to leave!"

So pale and powerless.

"Hahahaha!" Maggie burst out laughing, and the audience knew what the demon was taunting! Suddenly, she screamed and rushed to the camera, opening her mouth wide and her bloody teeth fiercely!

"Maggie, wake up!", "Stand back, back off!" Cotton and the others panicked back, and Maggie turned and ran again.

"Let's leave, it's not right...... the photographer couldn't hide his scared voice.

"She's just a 16-year-old girl! there are no demons in this world!" Cotton shouted, leading the way in pursuit.

Many viewers feel breathless, the weirdness, depression, coldness, and cruelty accumulated from the first second at the beginning are all erupting now, looking at the string of barefoot footprints on the dark snow, it is really a heart-wrenching horror!

"It's not a special effect, is it...... She really twisted herself like that, really performing barefoot in the snow...... "Emma doesn't know what to say."

"That kid is really willing. Jiya sighed, "If this is a movie made for pickling girls, I don't understand, does he understand pickling girls or not?"

On the screen, the dedicated photographer and camera assistant still chased after them, and as soon as the camera was shot, they went to the grove again, and then chased to the back of the grove for the first time, and the flashlight swept around, and they saw the dark and blurry ahead, where Maggie was standing, and next to her was the tombstone of a grave.

Her right hand rested on top of the tombstone, half of her face obscured by her long scattered hair, and the other half drowned in darkness.

The audience frowned, they could already guess that it was Maggie's mother's grave!What the damn demon wanted to do!?

The tension in the screening room was about to solidify, and the tension on the screen had also become qualitative, Cotton and the others slowly walked up, "Maggie?", "Are you okay?" At this moment, an unexpected situation happened both inside and outside the screen, Maggie suddenly cried bitterly, holding the tombstone and crying helplessly, "I can't bear it anymore, Mom, I can't support it anymore......"

"Mental problems. Cotton turned back to the camera and whispered.

When they approached, Maggie didn't attack them, but just wept bitterly, her face was frozen blue, and she was trembling all over, and her heart was broken. The female recording engineer stepped forward to hug her, Maggie refused to leave and struggled, and the female recording engineer said helplessly: "I have to find clothes and shoes for her, she is going to be cold." ”

"There's it in the car, I'll get it. "The voiceover of the camera assistant.

"Woo Mom...... I can't hold it anymore......" Maggie was still crying.

There are many reasons for the audience's worries, Maggie is undoubtedly pitiful, but is Maggie Maggie or a demon now? Demons can deceive people, and lies, provoke, and attack have a real purpose. Three-year-olds know not to believe in demons!

However, it is not clear to Cotton and his party that Maggie has really been invaded by demons!

All three critics were keenly determined that just as the sound was not weird, the demon of Tet didn't seem to be particularly weird, and now it was definitely the demon who was controlling Maggie, and it deliberately led them to Maggie's mother's grave, why?

Don't look at us! Grande and Potter Coe avoided the praise of the critics, they couldn't stand it!

As far as the script is concerned, in fact, from the second act, Kuhler has made a lot of changes not only in the setting, but only used some of their scenes to be compact, their cat killing scene is not as penetrating as killing in front of Cotton and others, and there is no emotional foreshadowing rendering of Maggie and Katie in the front, that is, she went to the barn in the middle of the night to kill another farm animal.

From the second half of the scene to the ending, it is also from this period that Kuhler is a completely new plot.

If it was the progress of the script for the two of them, now Cotton and they had just sawed off the chains for Maggie, because some scenes would be longer from the beginning, and the plot of Cotton and them going to visit the local pastor Manly and so on, the rhythm was far less intense and exciting than tonight. The suspense with obvious answers is like waves coming, which makes people want to stop.

Not to mention the talent in directing, a good director can tell a bad story wonderfully, and a bad director can tell a good story boring.

On the screen, the camera is still by the grave, Maggie has put on a pair of red shoes and a thick black jacket for men, and the red, black and white snow form a strong visual conflict, encroaching on the audience's eyes. She was still a little trembling, I don't know if it was cold or crying, and she choked up with Cotton and said, "Mom didn't die of cancer, it was that guy......!

"You mean your father?" Cotton was surprised, and the female recorder was furious, "He's a brute...... Maggie, don't be afraid, we won't let him hurt you again." ”

"After my mother got cancer, his temper became more grumpy, and that day he was very drunk and he touched me...... When his mother saw him scolding him, he suddenly went crazy. Maggie cried again as she spoke, with a look of fear on her face, "He, he hacked her with an axe...... Mom fell to the ground, a lot of blood ......"

The female recording engineer hugged the trembling Maggie tightly and comforted her repeatedly: "We will help you, you don't have to be afraid." Then he said to the camera, "Cotton, we have to call the police." ”

The camera swept over Cotton next to him, and he looked pensive and didn't speak.

Maybe the people on the screen are angry about Switzer's crime, but the audience has another chill, which is clearly a demon lying!

"He burned her body, and he told me not to tell anyone or he would kill me, and Ramon went out that day and didn't know that...... He was afraid that I would sue others, so he wouldn't let us out...... Within a week, he said that his mother had died of illness, and he brought back her coffin and buried it in the backyard of our farm......"

Maggie's tears fell in strings, like tear gas, "But no one else knows why my mother didn't even have a decent funeral, because she didn't go out for treatment at all, because there was no body of her in the coffin, she was burned by him, woo woo woo ......"

"Cotton, call the police. The female recorder added, and the photographer's voice rang out: "Yes, this is a murder and rape." ”

"We don't know ......! Maggie is sick. Cotton spoke in a tactful tone, and the subtext could it be that this was just a conjecture of her insaneness? He added: "Don't be impulsive, calling the police will ruin her, ruin a family." ”

The audience almost knew that the devil was deceiving people, but they still had a little suspicion, remembering the previous interview with passers-by in the town, who said that the Switzer family seemed to have disappeared, think about Switzer's irritability...... But the demon that is clearly present reminds every viewer that this is a conspiracy......

"What are you doing there!" suddenly rang out in an angry voiceover, Switzer.

The camera becomes very shaky, and when he turns around, he sees Switzer and Ramon trotting over, "Get out of my farm immediately!" Switzer looks like he's going to hit someone, Ramon wants to pull Maggie to protect him, and the female recording engineer gives Cotton a look and says, "Let's leave first." Cotton asked directly, "Maggie is pregnant, do you know?"

In the close-up, both of them are stunned, and then Switzer's face becomes very ugly, and he mutters, "Demon, it defiled Maggie." Ramon asked suspiciously, "Are you kidding?"

The female recording engineer suddenly scolded out of control: "It's you brute, you killed your wife, you raped Maggie, you brute!" She broke into the camera, "Don't record it, catch him!" The screen was shaky and chaotic, and Switzer said angrily, "You say it again!?" Maggie was crying as she hugged the tombstone.

With the cameraman's exclamations, the image blurred and it was obvious that the camera was turned off, and when recording resumed, Switzer and Ramon had figured out the situation.

Switzer was angry and sad at Cotton, "The devil has bewitched her, what she said is not true, Amy was diagnosed with terminal cancer when she was diagnosed with cancer, she was very devastated, and she walked quickly...... She was a simple person and didn't want to have a big funeral, and I wasn't in the mood at that time, so I ......"

"You're lying, you burned Mommy!" Maggie screamed suddenly, breaking down and crying, "You're a murderer, you killed Mommy......"

Everyone on the screen is helpless, and Switzer is very suspicious, and it seems that calling the police is the best way to do it, at which point the camera captures Ramon walking away with a calm face.

The audience outside the screen vaguely felt something, and Gia hissed: "They're going to open the coffin." "It's impossible to call the police to help you as a horror movie, so how do you get the truth? There's a way there, Maggie says there are no bones in the coffin, and Swaitzer says there are, so just open it and see who is lying......

At the same time, the three film critics were all thrilled and understood that opening the coffin was a blasphemy, especially since Maggie's mother was a devout believer and should be the most faithful and faithful to God in the screen story, and the demon wanted to open her coffin!

"Ramon!" As soon as the camera was shot, Ramon strode back, holding a hoe in his hand, his face was expressionless, and he walked over without saying anything, and then waved the hoe with both hands and hoeed it under the grave, and suddenly the snow splashed. The crowd exclaimed, and Swift shouted angrily, "Don't touch your mother's grave!"

"Is she in there!?Why don't you let us see her one last time?" Ramon exploded into a scolding, apparently resentful of his father.

"I just don't want you to see her dead......" Switzer grimaced, "I don't want us to think she's dead......"

The rough man revealed the fragility of his heart, and the rebellious teenager only paused, his eyes turned red, and he continued to hoe, "If you kill her, I will kill you!"

Suddenly Switzer said nothing more and turned to walk away. After a few quick cuts, he came back with a hoe and said sadly, "Gentlemen, the devil is lying! I'll show you that it's lying, Mr. Priest, if you really know how to exorcise demons, help us." So he went and hoeed the dirt from the grave.

"Oh lord...... Lord......" Cotton was at a loss. The female recording engineer was the same, very disturbed and said: "We should ask for help......" Maggie, who was standing next to her, was still sobbing, but much calmer than just now, and her brown eyes glanced at the swept camera, revealing a strange gaze.

The audience's hearts were chilled, it was the devil's eyes! It was about to achieve its purpose......

After a few cuts of the camera, I saw that the snow had been hoeed off, and the earth had been dug up, digging a large pit that was neither deep nor shallow, and a Christian-style coffin was buried inside. The light of the flashlight seemed to drive away the darkness, but it made the edge of the coffin shine with a seeping light.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Cotton's voiceover, "I think we should all be calm." ”

His words were not heeded by the Swaitzers and their sons, who laid down their hoes and were about to open the coffin!

In the two screening halls, no audience could bear to watch it, depressed, congested, and panicked, but they couldn't help but watch it, nervous, suspenseful, and afraid!
