Chapter 255: Not Lost to Any Scene

On the big screen, the camera shot towards the staircase, and a gray adult British shorthair cat scurried down from the corner first, meowed heavily, and ran away with a strange look in the copper cat's eyes.

"Katie?" With the call to the pet, a girl with black and brown hair and brown eyes appeared around the corner, her simple clothes were in line with the style of the early 90s of the story time, her long hair was neatly and flowing, when she saw the camera, her beautiful face was a little shy, more of a warm welcome smile, and she said as she walked down: "Hi, hello." ”

Suddenly, something flashed, this time clearer and longer, and right behind the girl, a demon's head hung there.

"Again!" Gia saw it, Emma saw it, and this time the audience saw almost all of them, sweet maidens and hideous demons, all on the stage.

The demon makes people's hearts sudden, and the girl makes people's eyes shine, beautiful things are what normal people will love, her smile like the morning light is one of them, and the thought of the demon destroying her makes her nervous and anxious. The young boys are even more moved by her beauty, who is this, and what movies have she acted in?

Some people also wonder if she is okay now, doesn't it say that this is made of real images, is she still alive?

"Oh my God, I'm ...... on the screen!"

Odeo Cinemas, Nina was so excited, if she wasn't in the theater, she would definitely jump up and jump into the air, it's great! It's so cool! She looked at him, at the screen, at him, and couldn't speak, not just happy, too much taste...... It actually appeared on the screen, and it was a movie made with Yunik!

"I can act in your movies, starting with DV shorts, I will be your actor, and we will work together!"

The dream has come true, and the World Youth Championships will not be held until the end of next month, so soon......

Nina's excitement subsided a bit, and she began to think that it was possible to finish high school and college together, and she seemed to have it without doing anything, all because of him......

"See, why is the screen lit?" Ye Wei was happy for her, happy for himself and her, looking at her emotional eyes, "That's your light lit, I don't care what others say, you are the biggest superstar I have ever worked with! ”

Yonik ...... Nina blushed, couldn't help but put her arms around him, leaned into his arms, and murmured, "Outside of my family, you are the person I love the most." He kissed her forehead, her eyes were full of tears and she almost cried, what should you do if you call me so good, I can't think of how I can love you more......

At the same time, Mr. and Mrs. Konstantin were very pleased, and Nina's best friends chirped excitedly: "Nina is a movie star!", "She's so photogenic!", "How lucky!"

Acting is the only consideration for critics' ratings, and so far the actors of TET have performed well, and the life-like performances are quite convincing in pseudo-documentaries. Just as they expected the film, their expectations for this girl will not be based on Linda Blair (nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress) in "The Exorcist", and it would be nice to have the current overall average.

On the screen, Maggie beckons Cotton and his party to visit her room and show herself, a simple and sweet farm girl.

Some new information has also been revealed, that Maggie's mother died of breast cancer three years ago, and that she was a devout Christian, as did the family. But after her death, Switzer stopped sending her children to the local church school and instead homeed them herself.

The audience can see that the family has actually lost their faith, and when asked by Cotton's "Why?", Switzer groans for a moment and flickers to say, "I admit it's a bit overprotective, but I have a bit of a different opinion from the church school", Maggie also seems depressed, and the most devout mother is sick and dead, why?

"That's why the demons invaded. "Film critics are not unusual, and the lack of conviction or lack of faith gives demons an opportunity, as in The Exorcist.

Why did the devout Mama die of illness?

Because there is no God?

"God bless the world. "Praise my Lord." The Christians in the theater couldn't help but mutter, and those who made and watched movies sometimes worried about whether they had offended God.

At that time, "The Exorcist" was banned in many regions in the United Kingdom, and it was only allowed to distribute the video in the United Kingdom more than a decade after its release. Today, more than 30 years later, the situation is less severe, and there are more atheists and non-pious believers among young people than there are pious believers, but offending God still makes everyone uneasy.

It is this uneasiness that constitutes the source of fear, one of the reasons why they are interested in exorcisms and come in search of excitement.

To say that the offense is just beginning. Cotton said to the camera that the family had obviously not recovered from the loss of their loved ones, and that the three-year closed life had made Maggie suffer from psychological problems such as depression and mental disorders, and it would be fine after "exorcism".

In the living room of the house, he begins to show how exorcists deceive, first giving Maggie some pretentious diagnoses, and then a test to determine whether an exorcism is needed, telling her to take off her shoes and socks and soak her feet in a basin of water with chemicals.

At this time, the surprised voice of the female recording engineer sounded: "Her feet." ”

The camera then zooms in, and in the close-up shot, I see that Maggie's feet are obviously abnormal, with some strange protrusions on the instep, and the toes are a little deformed, which looks ugly at first glance.

"Is this?" Cotton wondered, and the audience wondered as well.

The camera moved up and zoomed out, Maggie smiled and said: "I have studied ballet since I was a child, and after my mother died, I practiced ...... at home" Speaking of the back, she smiled a little far-fetched, clearly missing her deceased mother and missing the beautiful past.

I see, not the influence of the devil. Cotton began the test performance, and after some prayer, the Swaitzers were surprised to see the water in the basin rolling, and Swaitzer went to explore the water, and his face was even more shocked......

The audience felt absurd, not because they knew it was Cotton's trick, but because they knew that the devil was there watching and laughing.

In the close-up of the screen, Maggie looks at the rolling water, staring at her eyes and her face, surprised, scared, and dazed, as if she has done something wrong.

"Is it really her first time acting in a movie...... Emma was at a loss, how could this be, didn't mess up...... Isn't this Nina a rhythmic gymnast, how can she be so good at acting, she wants to pick on the thorns so much, but that bit has not been completely burned by the fire of jealousy Fairness keeps telling her that Nina plays very well.

Is it because you don't need to pay attention to the positioning and lighting under this shooting style, she looks relaxed and realistic, no, no, no, at least she has a pair of ugly feet......

"As far as I know, yes. Gia nodded, and the master's calm tone said, "Nina also learned acting at that art school...... I'm sure she's going to have amazing shots that wow us, and sometimes you have to see who the director is, and it's her boyfriend. ”

I hate that. Emma flattened her mouth, after he broke up with Collins, it was clear that I was dating him first.

At the dining room table, Cotton tells Switzer his judgment as he flips through the exorcism book on the table, a close-up of the front, and pages of mysterious drawings of ancient Latin text enter the audience's brains.

"I'm afraid that the demon that invaded Maggie's body is called abalam......" The camera switched, Cotton said sternly, Swaitzer couldn't read Latin, Cotton read it seriously, and said: "The book says that it is very powerful, probably the most powerful demon recorded in this book." It moves forward like a snake, entwining the nerves and soul of the person, so it can change the temperature, rise and fall, just like Maggie just said.

Abalam seeks the innocent and pure, it defiles the innocent and pure, and that's what it does, atrocious crimes. It is especially strict when it encroaches on young girls, look at what is written here. He also gave a close-up of the ancient book, a terrifying picture of the devil, and at the same time Cotton's heavy voice sounded: "The book says that the only solution is ...... Death. ”

Stunned, Switzer retorted, "The only solution is death?"

"Unless she is successfully exorcized. "Cotton looks confident.

Landmark Studios, Shek looked at his watch, it only showed for about 25 minutes, and the exorcism arrived!

The audience, including the three film critics who watched the play, was a little excited, a commercial film is a commercial film, "The Exorcist" is an exorcism after a 90-minute story, and "The Exorcism Video" is coming in 25 minutes, which makes the atmosphere of anticipation in the screening room continue to rise.

What will happen? Can Cotton, a liar exorcist, cure Maggie who is really attacked by demons?

"The camera is still not shaky enough, and there are close-ups of that angle, which really doesn't look like a pseudo-documentary......" Gesta complained with increasing dissatisfaction.

"Shhhhhhhh

On the screen, Ramon saw through Cotton's deception, but he didn't debunk it, he was just ready to watch the show. Cotton sets up Maggie's room, and the exorcism is about to begin.

The warm and elegant girl's room was more decorated, Maggie lay down on the bed, the Swaitzer father and son stood not far away, Cotton held the cross and the Bible, and said calmly and confidently: "Gentlemen, if I don't call you, don't help." ”

Where is the demon? Is it in the room? The question arose in the hearts of the audience, and they were even more nervous than Maggie, because there were demons!

Grande and Potter Coe were very emotional, and they had a discussion with "Cooler" about suspense before, talking about the suspense one after another in "The Exorcist", such as the death of director Burke, etc., why the horror is multiplied rather than reduced.

Kuller's words are simple and insightful: "Those who are suspenseful to the people on the screen, not to the audience, everyone can guess the exact answer, Burke was killed by Regan, and Regan was either sick or invaded by demons...... The whole problem revolves around the demon that is clearly presented. With this premise, everyone will think about everything in a terrifying way, although there is no scene of Regan killing Burke, but the audience can imagine the cruelty at that time, so they are afraid. The more you think about it, the more terrifying it becomes. ”

Now they can see how Culler realizes the "terrifying imagination of the unknown" to frighten people, there is no suspense of whether there is a zĂ i demon, but there is more heart-wrenching suspense, like opening a door, and a cold wind penetrates into the heart, creepy.

It's not because of a certain shot, everyone thinks differently, close your eyes, the darkness in your heart is the most terrifying.

"I want you to stand there politely, and all I need is your faithfulness to God, and your courage and love. Cotton at the bedside continued to say seriously, "We're here because we love Maggie and hope she gets better." Right?"

The camera swept away, everyone nodded, and Maggie also nodded, with a nervous face that couldn't be hidden, "Yes, sir." ”

"Okay, then let's get started, let's pray to God-"

As the exorcism begins on the screen, the nervous audience sees Cotton pompously deceitful, holding up the holy relic and reading the scripture "He led me to the water's edge ...... where I can rest", asking Maggie if she believes it and scolding the demon: "...... In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, in the name of the Holy Blood, get out of here, Devil, I command you to get out!"

Suddenly, a demon's cry rang out in the room, and Maggie looked left and right with horror on her face, her face flushed with fear.

There was also a low audience exclamation in the screening hall, Debbie frowned, Lev swallowed his saliva with difficulty, Gia opened her eyes, did the demon appear?

The camera and the editing also became nervous, quickly scanning the reaction of the crowd to the point of shaking a little violently, and remixing the close-up of Maggie, Cotton's sideways shot, not the devil, it was his trick!

At this moment, Katie the gray cat scurried into the room, her eerie tail raised. The wooden bed suddenly shook, and Maggie let out a sharp and piercing exclamation, "Ah!!hh

"Leave it alone, it's just a cunning liar!" Cotton's quick voice sounded.

"It's coming!" Maggie sat up and stepped back, but the wall at the head of the bed made her unable to retreat, and she suddenly screamed again, glared in pain, and kicked her hands and feet, "No, it's coming, save me, God, ahh......hh

Listening to her screams of pain and fear, watching her face red and blue, trembling all over, her hands about to pinch her neck, and trying her best to control the wooden bed, the audience knew! Her body was really tormented by the demon, her soul was really eroded and torn, and the demon was really coming!

Right under the noses of the family, right under the noses of the "exorcists"!

Cotton, who thought it was just a psychological problem, continued to perform, shouting, "Maggie, say I love Jesus! Believe in Jesus Christ and you will be saved." The Almighty Divine Lord has the power to destroy demons, do you believe it, believe it, you have to believe it!" As he spoke, the screen was interspersed with footage of what he had done before, and the demon's screams and bed vibrations were all fake.

"I believe, I love Jesus, I believe ......" Maggie tried to calm down, but her voice became more and more miserable, and she was already sweating, "save me, save me ......"

The camera was scanning again, not stopping at the frightened Switzer and the strange Ramon, but aimed at Katie, the gray cat squatting on the dressing table over there, it blew up, and the two copper-colored cat's eyes were so weird, a hiss, what did it see!?

In the mirror behind it, the hideous-looking demon's face flashed! For a second or two, it could be seen in the blink of an eye.

Oh no...... there was a great chill in the scattered auditorium, and it was hard for Christians or not, the devil was there, but where was God?

Great, great! Sherk enjoyed the feeling of sourness so much, and the two of them had a big surprise! With this exorcism scene, this film is worth watching!

Custer took a deep breath, there was such a dramatic, explosive scene in the first act in less than 30 minutes, he even had to worry about the two Grandes, could there be more shock in the next 60 minutes?

Orr sighed, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the two "Yunik Kuller" sitting next to him.

This feeling is subtly different from all previous exorcism movies, that is, the two priests in "The Exorcist" know that there are demons, they are just weak (due to a lack of faith), and Cotton does not know, the holy cross, the scriptures of the Bible have become the tools of the pastor to deceive people, "believe in Jesus Christ and you will be saved" but not saved, and the two priests shout "the-power-of-christ-pels-you" over and over again in unison It's the same thing, and in terms of blasphemy, it's a scene that doesn't lose anything else.

Just because he knew that the demon was there, and watched Maggie being tortured, in the so-called exorcism ritual, he was so ironic, nervous, sad, and trembling in his heart.

And the fear, the fear of being provoked by the demons, this fear...... What a disrespect to God.

"I can't do it......" The blasphemy of the gods on the screen is not over, and Cotton suddenly looks helpless and depressed, as if he wants to give up. Switzer hurriedly pleaded, "You must save my daughter, you must, please!" Ramon also wondered, "You have a way, right?"

Isn't this yet another revelation of the lack of faith in all of them? Only God, not Cotton, can repel demons and save Maggie.

As soon as the camera moved, I saw Maggie who was half-lying on the bed even more painful, her eyes were rolling up, and her screams gradually weakened, as if she was screaming: "Ah......"

"Give me strength, my lord, let me cast out the demons!" Cotton knelt beside the bed in tears, his hands happy with the cross, still so pompous. Suddenly, the devil's cry sounded again, "Ahh......h What a great Jesus Christ, thank Jesus Christ!"

Interspersed with shots, how the cross was manipulated before, cut back to Maggie's room, close-up, the cross in his hand released white smoke with a snort.

Maggie's screaming stopped, and she gasped for air, her face improved, and her expression changed from fear and pain to quiet gratitude. Switzer crossed again and again, and the exorcism was successful!

The happy scene of the aftermath of the catastrophe on the screen, but the two screening halls outside the screen were shrouded in a heavier depression, did the exorcism succeed? Of course not. Everyone saw the power and cunning of the demon, and the thought that it would torture the innocent Maggie made their hearts ache and tighten, but fortunately, the story is not over.

Grande and Potko looked at each other, and it became clear that it was good and perhaps better for the demon to exist.

"Damn it...... That bastard, shoot these in 18 days, what are you kidding!" Gia was able to catch her breath and breathe deeply, it was too exciting, too beautiful.

Zero rehearsal! Emma's face was already flushed, and her heart kept ringing this sentence, which must have been added to all aspects such as editing, but Nina played ...... It's really good......

She didn't want to admit it, but she began to understand why she liked a girl who seemed to be ordinary. Nina is not ordinary, she is very good, but it makes sense to like her.

Did Maggie play well? Just look at the cold sweat on the forehead of the audience, it's not over yet!

Next, Cotton and his party collected the money and said goodbye, left the farm and went to the motel, where in the middle of the night, Maggie in white pajamas suddenly appeared.

The screen first used the black and white picture recorded by the surveillance camera in the hotel corridor, so that the three film critics were surprised by the technology, which is a photographic innovation of pseudo-documentary horror films, I saw Maggie staggering down the corridor, she suddenly looked back at the surveillance camera, with a blank expression, slightly distorted upper body, stood for several seconds, indescribably mad.

She continued walking. Cutting back to the camera lens, Cotton and his party were alarmed and took her into the female recording engineer's room, Maggie sat on the edge of the bed, asked her if she didn't respond to anything, her face was abnormally pale, and she suddenly began to vomit, not the green liquid that "Ruigen" vomited, but ordinary white foam, so it was like some kind of illness, trembling while vomiting.

"We're going to have to take her to the hospital. Cotton said in a deep voice. The female recording engineer said, "Yes, go now." The photographer asked, "How did she catch up?" and no one answered.

And the audience can guess that it is the devil who is doing it, and almost everyone is fascinated by it until now, and is affected by Maggie's fate, looking at such a sweet and simple girl so painful, no matter how hard-hearted a person is, he will not be able to bear it.

Alas, Emma leaned weakly on the back of her chair, whether it was Nina's outstanding talent, or because it was the result of director VIY, how could she act so well, how could she ......

"I'm sure she definitely has a lot of cadenza that amazes us even more, and sometimes you have to see who the director is. Gia said again.

At the same time, Gesta said impatiently: "It's rotten, this is not the style of "Blair the Witch" at all......"

"Gsta Reed, are you an idiot?" Debbie was speechless. In the formula, it will be so ironic, nervous, sad, and trembling.

And the fear, the fear of being provoked by the demons, this fear...... What a disrespect to God.

"I can't do it......" The blasphemy of the gods on the screen is not over, and Cotton suddenly looks helpless and depressed, as if he wants to give up. Switzer hurriedly pleaded, "You must save my daughter, you must, please!" Ramon also wondered, "You have a way, right?"
