Chapter 1695: The Crux
After the opening of the film, the plot officially unfolds.
Not only did they accidentally kill the God of Death, but they also created a terrifying evil spirit. In order to avoid more people being hurt, the Warren and his wife took the initiative to contact the authorities. The government set up a special emergency team according to the specifications of handling the Blood Moon incident. The members were basically familiar faces from the Soul Conjuring Series.
This part of the plot made some viewers keenly notice that Daenerys no longer focuses on the layout of the Warrens as the absolute core.
In fact, this can be seen from the movie poster with many characters in the recent publicity process.
This is actually a fact.
Daenerys' internal soul-summoning film universe project team has a clearer plan. In recent series, it has been consciously or unintentionally cultivating the successors of the Warrens.
After the book is completed, after the emergency team is established, we must investigate the whole story as soon as possible.
It turns out that the reason why Old Skele was able to complete the transformation of evil spirits was due to a book called "Book of Spiritual Spells" inherited from the ancestors of the Skele family, which recorded many taboo witchcrafts and evil magics.
The success of the Skele family is even closely related to this book.
On the other hand, with the help of their companions, the Warren couple also understood another fact that people were a little relieved. The God of Death they killed was just one of the numerous ghost messengers in hell, not some famous Lord of Hell.
However, although it is not considered an irreparable disaster, killing the Hell Messenger and accidentally creating an evil spirit, the Warren and his wife will definitely be pursued by the underworld.
Therefore, the evil spirits incarnated by Old Skele were solved and the consequences of the man-killing of the Hell Messenger was dealt with, thus becoming the main line of the two stories in parallel with this "Soul Conjuring 4: Death".
The plot on the big screen is overwhelming.
The opening wedge, investigate the truth, hunt down evil spirits, and resolve future troubles...
The whole movie is 126 minutes long and it is completed in one go. In the screening hall, when the subtitles rise and the audience reacts, more than two hours have passed.
At the end of the credits, everyone was still immersed in the aftertaste of the plot and unexpectedly welcomed an Easter egg.
The main story is very complete, basically solving two problems faced by the two protagonists, killing the evil spirits incarnated by old Skele, and reaching a reconciliation with the Hell Messenger through sacrifices, but in fact, the latter did not end completely.
The content of the Easter egg is heralding the continuation of this incident.
At the Warrens' home, it was dark in the night. Rowling Warren woke up from the nightmare and went downstairs in a daze. He opened the door and saw a terrifying figure holding a giant scythe in his black cloak appeared in front of the door.
The picture is frozen and dark.
The lights are on.
Amid the spontaneous warm applause, the main creators began to come on stage. Lina Kane, who also applauded, could see that many people in the screening room could no longer help but start whispering, which should be the last discussion of the easter egg.
Obviously, after the fourth part, the "Soul Conjuring" series will usher in the fifth part.
Lina quickly sorted out the story of the past two hours in her mind, and while quietly absorbing some available materials, a confusion arose again.
I have watched the full movie now and finally reacted a little.
This time, the style changes are too obvious. Maybe this is some strange feeling I had before.
But, where is it?
Just as she was thinking, the applause fell, and Lina was about to whisper a few words with Annika beside her when a slightly hoarse lazy female voice suddenly came from the other side: "It's so boring, not scary at all."
After saying this, a doll girl stood up and poked the big paper with some snacks left in her arms to the head of a middle-aged man in the front row, and said, "You've seen enough, Bichi." Then, ignoring the eyes of the people around her, waded through the gaps in the seats and squeezed past Lina and the others, leisurely and leisurely.
The middle-aged man in the front row did not dare to have an attack, and he had to touch the fragments in his collar while apologizing and comforting the woman who should be his wife beside him.
A little girl walked in a arrogant and dazzling way, but it made Lina and Annika feel embarrassed.
Because I remembered the casual explanation of a man before leaving again, what should they do if this starts to make a fuss?
There were also countless pairs of gazes that came over around them, and accidentally fell on them. The two girls could only try to explain with their expressions and actions that we didn't know her, we were just poor passers-by.
Fortunately, because a middle-aged man who was trapped in a popcorn bucket did not dare to pursue the matter, the little girl who left Dada did not make any more fuss. Coupled with the comfort of the staff, the brief episode quickly calmed down.
The host on the stage skillfully joked a few words, and amid the laughter, everyone's attention turned to the main creators.
Lina also looked at the stage, but after a moment, she suddenly opened her mouth slightly and her eyes lit up.
Understood.
Because I remembered the words of a little girl when she just left, "Not scary at all", this is the crux of the problem she has never been able to capture.
Speaking of which, this "Soul Conjuring 4: Death" is certainly not the "so boring" that Lydia Hurst said, but rather is quite exciting.
As for saying "not scary at all", of course it is not tenable. If you don't talk about anything else, it is just that the obviously carefully designed image of the God of Death in the film, every time you appear, people instinctively create a creepy ancient charm.
Therefore, this movie can definitely be said to be both wonderful and horrifying.
Lina can be sure that in the future, "Soul 4: Death" will be very outstanding, whether it is word of mouth or box office.
But things are afraid of comparison.
Compared with the recognized peak series "Soul Conjuring 3: Blood Moon", this "Soul Conjuring 4: Death" has indeed decreased significantly.
Going further, Lina realized that the decline in this degree of horror was mainly due to the emergence of the "Death" element, which made such a pure evil spirit horror movie series add some fantasy elements that involve the level of gods and demons.
Compared with the ghosts and spirits that are so scary that people are easily afraid of, gods and demons are obviously too far away from people's lives, so they seem less scary.
In short, the ‘not so terrifying’ brought by the God and Demon Element is obviously an important change made by "Soul Conjuring 4: Death" compared to all other Soul Conjuring movie universe series.
First of all, we can make sure that this movie itself is very excellent, but what results will the corresponding changes bring to the film's market performance? After some thought, Lina still cannot get the answer, so she can only look forward to the official and large-scale painting of the film the day after tomorrow.
There are many keen people in the screening hall. While Lina was thinking, someone had already raised questions about the change in the style of the film.
Dear creators are obviously prepared for this, but the answer should be clichés prepared in advance.
Innovation, breakthrough, Balabala.
It is also recommended that the audience experience it personally.
Chapter completed!
