"Hollywood Draw(!
"it?"
This sudden scene still shocked Todd McCarthy, who had seen it once. The weird sound in front of the film, plus the heavy rain that embellished the environment, and the sudden appearance of the clown, is the "it" in the original book.
These elements are combined together, and the camera is slowly pulled to the perspective of the distant view, so that everyone can clearly see and feel it. This is the **** horror set off by the environment and atmosphere.
This movie belongs to most people who know the story line in advance, not to mention the two-episode adaptation of Warner Bros. in 1990. Stephen King wrote this book in 1986, and it was the No. 1 best seller in the United States that year.
Therefore, most people have heard this story more or less, and the difference from the original is that "the clown" is a concrete "it".
The concept of "it" is that everything you fear, or what you fear in your heart, "it" will incarnate. Wayne can concretize this "it" into an image, the clown.
So the adaptation at the beginning of the film gave everyone an unexpected shock.
This is also the place where Wayne made the first change compared to the original film. He added the oriental atmosphere and the suddenness of terror, combined with the **** bite of the American style, at least the feedback given by the audience at the beginning was very good.
To say that he played the best in this area, of course, we must say that the later Director Wen, the expression of the horror of the East and the West, was all played by him, and Wayne was just picking up people's teeth.
"fxxk!"
Harvey Weinstein was also taken aback. After leaning forward, his upper body leaned back into the chair instantly, and the flesh on his face trembled. He didn't expect the horror of a horror movie to come so suddenly.
However, when I heard the screams in the theater, and then quickly returned to calm, it was obvious that the curiosity of these people had been pulled up, and they couldn't help but not want to miss the next picture, and wanted to follow this beginning to find more.
"A horror movie, it's a good horror movie if you can scare people! Wayne Greenberg, those movie critics who say you've regressed are blind, or are they pretending to be blind?"
Harvey Weinstein murmured and said words that only he could hear, and along with the public, he turned his attention back to the big screen.
As soon as the camera turned, the figure of the little male protagonist Bill appeared, and his younger brother just disappeared, and it was only after a long time that the pain was slowly healed.
But in fact, in Bill's heart, he always believed that his younger brother was not dead, and he might have rushed downstream along the sewer.
The film is here, the Loser Alliance debuts for the first time, the talkative glasses boy Richie Tozier, the mama boy Eddie who has serious cleanliness and carries asthma medicine with him, Stanley with curly hair, plus Stuttering little male protagonist Bill.
After school, a few people made an appointment to go to the river for summer vacation. It just so happened that the river was downstream of the sewer, and the partners just went to help find Bill's younger brother.
When the camera turns, on the other side, Mike, a black boy, works on the ranch and lives with his grandfather. He is mainly responsible for slaughtering sheep on the ranch and is an apprentice in the slaughterhouse. His parents died in a fire, which is also a shadow that he can't let go of in his heart.
This day he was pushing a cart to deliver goods, but the closed door in the alley was different today. Flames slowly emerged from the crack of the door, just like the fire that killed his parents. Same.
Mike took two steps forward in fear, but the door was opened in an instant, and the hidden clown appeared directly in front of him. Just when everyone thought that Mike was going to be killed, a group of children who usually liked to bully him suddenly rushed over in a car.
The car passed Mike, and although they bullied Mike as always, the car scared him to the ground, but it was a blessing in disguise that saved him, and the clown disappeared.
In another turn, Bill's friend Stanley is particularly afraid of a painting in his father's office, a terrifying abstract painting. One day when he went to put things, the oil painting suddenly fell off.
Stanley walked slowly to the oil painting, picked up the oil painting and hung it on the wall, but when he looked up, the terrifying woman in the painting was gone!
When I turned around, the twisted woman in the painting suddenly appeared in front of me! Frightened Stanley ran away.
The screen continued to turn and came to the school gate.
The new fat boy had just transferred to this small town school. Not only did he have no friends, but because he was short and fat, he was often bullied by those bad boys and school bullies, and only liked to read books in the library.
When he was reading a book again, he accidentally turned to the book record of the history of the town. There have been several mass deaths in this town, such as the explosion of a steel factory, arson in a bar, and so on.
Just when he was looking at these graphic records, he found that the face of the clown appeared looming in several of the photos. Turning back again, there is a child's head hanging on a big tree!
Little Fatty Ben found out that the boy's head was very similar to Bill's younger brother, but the time was obviously not right?
At this moment, a red balloon slowly floated by, and there were strange gashapons along the road. Little Fatty Ben followed all the way, chasing him curiously to the basement.
Suddenly, the lights flickered and then went out. In the old photo I just saw, the headless corpse of the burned child appeared and charged straight towards him!
Little Fatty Ben turned around and ran. In the dark basement of the library, he suddenly bumped into a person. When he looked up, he realized that it was a black woman librarian. At the same time, all the terrifying scenes that had just appeared disappeared.
Seeing this, all the audience have understood that the essence of the clown and "it" is still the same, it will be transformed into the most fearful and terrifying thing in everyone's heart, so as to better devour its prey.
Although this is different from the setting in the original work, the monster "it" has been embodied as a clown, but its essence has not changed, and it still follows the setting in the original work.
Although these short stories are all background introductions, the horror elements interspersed in them have frightened the audience to scream several times.
Remote towns, strange legends, looming clowns around people, and frequent group deaths in small towns in the past are all elements of traditional Western horror. Combined with the clowns that each child encounters, it's almost a surprise to the audience.
The film is shown here, which is actually the part that Wayne is most worried about. The concept of being too advanced, coupled with the horror point of his intention to transform it into a combination of the East and the West, whether the audience can accept it completely, in fact, he himself does not dare to guarantee it.
However, when he quietly turned around a few times and found that the huge movie hall was concentrating on watching the movie, and there was no sound of some frequent chatting and discussing the plot, Wayne knew that there was nothing wrong with what he did.
As a film was shot, he also made more changes to the original film. Different from seeking stability at the earliest, now he can more boldly tear off things that he thinks are out of date, and then add his own understanding.
Some ideas and expressions that are too advanced are definitely inappropriate in this year. Also take into account the current social environment, people's understanding of the story in the film and so on.
He didn't want a top-notch horror movie to become nondescript when he moved to the 1990s.
"It's not quite what I expected, Wayne."
The horror scenes that appeared several times made Naomi Watts hold his arm tightly, and also noticed that he kept silently looking back to observe the behavior of fans.
"It's not like a regular horror movie, but there are a lot of traditional horror elements, at least for now, there is no human nature that you always like to play with. However, I didn't expect you to worry about the reaction of the fans, not like So confident."
Wayne grabbed her hand, squeezed it lightly, and said close to her ear: "I'm also constantly testing the market, and the first-hand viewing performance of movie fans is the most real and representative data. Feedback, and I'm not a dollar, I can't make everyone like it, and of course I'm worried that the response will not be as expected."
However, the audience in this large screening hall made him let go of some of his worries, and gradually focused his attention on the movie being shown.
On the big screen, the little fat man ran out of the library, but happened to be blocked by the bully. He simply moved the ignorant and hateful side of the school tyrant who was fearless and fearless in reality directly on the screen.
In desperation, the little fat Ben kicked him away, turned around and ran away. He happened to meet the little male protagonist Bill and a few people. The loser alliance is usually bullied by those people, so he took the little fat Stanley on a bicycle and ran. .
When they went to the pharmacy to buy trauma medicine together, they happened to meet the heroine again, Beverly, played by Drew Barrymore, to buy an aunt's towel. She is also often bullied by her classmates, and she also spreads rumors about her lust.
In Beverly's home, there is also a father who is extremely controlling with a perverted personality.
At this point, the League of Losers has gathered everyone. Each of them has various family flaws, and they are all bullied children in school.
A group of useless children get together, even if they know each other.
From here onwards, the film introduces the specific background of each child, interspersed with horror elements in the story, and now this group of children with different defects have come together, and finally began to tell the strange things they encountered.
The next day, when they were playing together, Fatty Ben also told everyone what he found in the library. The missing rate and death rate of children in this town are at least six times higher than in normal towns. There must be a problem!
