Next, please allow me, a small suspense fan, from a subjective point of view, to share a [suspense fans often watch 10 new films], ranking in no particular order (ps: write as you like), welcome to the comment area to discuss, share, and recommend Oh ~
Needless to say, many people have seen the plot, but when I think of suspense movies, the first film in my mind is it.
Directed by Nolan and starring Leonardo and Marion, also known as "Memory Maze", "Inception" is a film whose plot is interspersed between reality and dreams, and is defined as "a contemporary action science fiction film that takes place within the structure of consciousness". Everyone has their own unique perspective on dreams, the most famous of which is Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams", which analyzes the emergence, formation and mapping of dreams from the perspective of psychology and pathology. But in the movie, dreams can be dominated and laid out by people, and stories extended from dreams can directly or indirectly change the actual thoughts and lives. After watching the movie for the first time, I was particularly interested in the profession of dream maker, which seemed illusory, but there were traces to follow, and if I could really reshape the dream, I was worried that intermittent emotions would have nowhere to go.
The fact that there are several layers of dreams in the film is the most discussed point. If you take the real world in which the protagonist team is located in the movie as a reference point, then from the moment they enter the dream, there are: (1) the real world; (2) the van (dream) ;(3) the hotel (dream) ;(4) the snow mountain castle (dream) (5) the deserted city by the sea; (6) the edge of the subconscious (lost), a real world, a five-layer dream world, what do you think?
At the end of the movie, the gyroscope has been spinning, and when the CAST is announced, someone says that they hear a stop, and some people say they don't hear it, do you hear it?
If Spanish suspense films are the most outstanding, few people should oppose it. Spanish suspense films can always jump out of conventional thinking and bring people a different sense of surprise, such as "Enigmatic Eyes", "Dark Side", "Mirage", "Buried Alive", "Skin of My Habitat", etc. Are worth watching, the movie has no bloody scenes, but it is shocking in the continuous reversal. The "Invisible Guest," the suspenseful masterpiece "What You Think You Think Is What You Thought", tells a wonderful story that is constantly reversed, so that the double-edged nature of lies is nowhere to be seen.
There is a line in the film about horizontal thinking, which is about changing the perspective of thinking to analyze the problem at hand, giving an example of suicide with ice cubes, indirectly suggesting the simultaneity of the story development in the plot, that is, when he happens, she is also happening. The early stages of the film lay out a lot of details and emotions, and in the constantly reversed case-in-case case, a shocking ending is revealed. The cool color of the picture, very advanced and very easy to drive emotions, under the surging plot lurks a strong logic, extremely exciting.
About this movie, when you watch it, there is always a sense of déjà vu, as if you guessed the ending at the first sight, did you have this feeling when you watched it? After checking a lot of information, I found that there is exactly the same remake version, and sure enough, the classic is easy to be imitated.
The reason why these two films are put together is because they represent split personality and multiple personalities, and most people confuse the two concepts, and these two movies vividly distinguish them, telling different psychological characteristics and emotional catharsis.
Psychologist Jung said: Where we don't face ourselves, it becomes our destiny. In the movie "Forbidden Island", Leonardo played the male protagonist Teddy is a personality split patient who does not dare to face real life, after his wife with depression drowned three children to commit suicide, he was mentally severely damaged, and the subconscious self-protection mechanism operated extremely quickly, allowing him to temporarily forget the memory and grief, creating a new identity and experience, he constantly self-suggested, to trace the roots, to find his so-called truth, but again and again to break the illusion, return to the tragic real life.
Is Teddy really crazy? Or is he awake from the beginning, just to relieve himself, so that he chooses to remove the white matter of the forebrain and completely lose his memory, the discussion on this issue, everyone has their own different views, there are many metaphorical hints in the film. But for the movie, in the cold and terrifying mental hospital, every character, every action, every meaningless word, the tense and terrifying atmosphere created, let us feel the helplessness and difficulty of loneliness and escape. Perhaps the so-called island of confinement, an island that has lost contact because of distance and space, is also an alternative manifestation of inner confinement.
Multiple personality disorder is a schizophrenic identity disorder, it is like ID, can fission two or more autonomous individuals, they are independent of each other, each has a complete self, personality and life experience, they sometimes perceive each other's existence, sometimes can not perceive, they all live in a body, through the occupation of the mind to prove existence.
In the movie "Deadly ID", McKenreave splits into 11 personalities, under the treatment of the psychiatrist Malik, summons them all, and on a raging stormy night, is forced to gather in a dilapidated motel, undergoes inexplicable and terrifying fights, and finally survives only one person to complete the control of the good master personality.
The most unlikely person is always the most likely. The horror atmosphere rendered in the early stages of this movie is conventional and intense, the plot is interlocked, there is no superfluous shot, every picture can find the reason, when you think it is the ending, it tells you that the story is not over with a reversal. The film not only shows the complexity of the spiritual world of multiple personalities, but also constantly explores the dark side of human nature, telling: the most evil spiritual theories are often the most harmless on the surface and the deepest hidden, just like the accidents and shocks brought by the last evil personality.
If you also like Grandma, you must not miss this film that will not fade with the passage of time, directed by Billy Wilder and starring Tyrone Boward, Marlene Dietrich and other "Prosecution Witness", adapted from Agatha Christie's novel of the same name, telling the story of British criminal defense lawyers defending murder suspects, with more than 400,000 Douban ratings of 9.6.
Behind the mysterious case, there are interlocking and unspeakable secrets, even if you have guessed or known the ending, you will be impressed by superb acting, witty lines and gripping court arguments.
The black and white picture quality, with colorful stories and interpretations, is still wonderful and tireless. Every time you brush again, you feel that there are details everywhere, every expression, every action, is suggesting that when you have the perspective of God, you no longer have to guess who is the murderer, you only need to restore whether he has committed a crime, what kind of experience, you can feel in this movie.
The most exquisite is the scene at the end of the trial, just when the audience feels relaxed for the acquittal of the defendant, the plot suddenly comes to a 180° reversal, and the scene after this trial can be described as a stroke of God, so some people call this drama the originator of suspense films.
"Now you want to find out the secret, but you definitely can't find it because you didn't look hard, you don't really want to know, you want to be deceived." 」 This passage is the last line of the movie. The first time I watched it, I was really shocked by the details and logic in the movie, and I couldn't help but watch it again, Nolan is a great magician, he really presented a near-perfect story in its entirety, making you believe that it really exists, except for the last magic technology.
One minute on stage, ten years offstage, about the magical perception brought by magic, the public is always happy to do it, and it is also very curious about the mystery. But once you accept some kind of predetermined hint, thinking that you have penetrated it, but actually fallen into a maze that has been carefully laid out, what is true and what is false?
Suspense films mostly rely on details to win, in Nolan's films, the protagonists' superb acting skills, twists and turns of bizarre plots and abrupt and exquisite endings, building a huge country, where there is foreshadowing everywhere, the memories are wonderful, when watching, I am reluctant to miss every frame and every line. In the process of competing for who is the most outstanding chief magician of the Victorian era, friends begin to turn against each other, encountering the challenge of loyalty and faith, which seems to be a story of competition, but it reflects the times and lives that we are experiencing in reality, with twists and turns, contradictions and confrontations, and are making choices at any time.
Verify, transfer, hoodwink, this magic show, twin Batman vs clone Wolverine, who do you think is better?
Is that you? Is the criminal in the photo you who have committed a crime and are still looking at the photo?
As a country where movies change the law, South Korea has filmed realistic films such as "The Melting Pot", "Suyuan", "The Defender", "Catch that Guy"... And so on, each one is impressive, they are like a sharp sword straight to the heart, telling the cruelty and darkness of society and unwillingness, and some murderers have not yet been found. The movie "Memories of Killing" is based on the 1986 Hwaseong serial murder case, directed by Bong Joon-ho, starring Song Kang-ho and Kim Sang-kyung, through a two-hour picture showing the turmoil and inaction of the political situation at that time, facing the murderer who is close at hand, only one step away can be caught, but powerless, sad and indignant, this is a suspense story with no ending and answer, and it still needs reality to work hard to end.
This collective recollection of the serial murder case, in a gloomy and depressing atmosphere, restores the details of the case and the process of police tracking, satirizing that dark and dark era, fear of seeing a needle lurking in people's nerves, no matter how hard they try, how close to the truth, in the end it will become despair. Just like in the movie, the fool has seen the face of the murderer, but died unexpectedly due to various coincidences, the murderer once returned to the scene of the crime to revisit, the little girl said that he looks very ordinary, it is this ordinary is the most deadly, because he is so ordinary that you can not find and catch it at a glance. Li Chuncai was caught in 2019, and many imitators and murderers are still at large, which is not to be expected.
It is said that people's sixth sense is very strong, so what is the so-called sixth sense? In the movie "The Sixth Sense", it is the "yin and yang eyes" of the nine-year-old boy Cole, who can see the ghosts that have passed away, which brings Cole a lot of fear and also makes him grow up. The film has a deep-seated horror, an unexpected ending. When I first read it, I thought it was a story of psychological redemption, and Dr. Melcon did psychotherapy for Cole, constantly walking into Cole's life, wanting to help him and heal him.
The whole film has no bloody scenes, nor is there a shocking ambient music, but it makes people look particularly fascinating, Cole's mournful eyes are still impressive, the twist of the ending is surprising, and then return to the film to be originally re-watched, it turns out that all the directors have laid out all the details.
The man's shirt has never been changed, only the coat has changed, covering the wounds on his body; Cole's mother and the man's wife have never seen the man; when the man wants to approach Cole, he will immediately appear next to Cole, whether it is the school or the room... The film does not have the usual method of suspense thrillers, and integrates a warm plot into the cold plot, and the love, family, friendship, and stranger's feelings are laid out, revealing the reverse ending in the last five minutes, which is unexpected. Many different people watched this movie and had different feelings.
If you like to watch "The Sixth Sense", you must go to see Nicole's "Isle of Horror", the same type of theme, every scene in the film, every line is hinting at the ending, especially wonderful.
In recent years, there have been more and more domestic suspense film and television dramas, and some of them have been remade abroad, and "Labyrinth of Hearts" released in 2015. A 1.7 million small-cost domestic god narrative masterpiece, based on real events, the entire film has no well-known actors, there is no gorgeous scene, with a unique narrative direction and exquisite narrative logic, under the performance of 10 three-dimensional and distinctive characters, step by step, stripping away the cocoon, restoring a series of black absurd stories caused by an inexplicable corpse.
At first glance, the whole movie looks like there is nothing surprising, but if you continue to look down, you will be impressed by fragmented editing, logical and meticulous plot and the replacement of time and space, in this bizarre and bizarre murder case, everyone has their own considerations and selfishness, showing their intentions and plans everywhere, but they do not know that a lie should be rounded by a thousand or even tens of thousands of lies.
"Absurd irony, a thousand coincidences, a thousand twists and turns." It is Douban's evaluation of this movie. As a plot suspense film, "Labyrinth of Hearts" is excellent not only because it deeply excavates the good and dark side of human nature, creates multiple doubts and puzzles, but also is a kind of transcendence and guidance for future domestic suspense films. There are too many accidental events in life, they are uncontrollable, it is difficult to avoid, when encountered, a wrong choice, a difference of thoughts, is the return of life and death. Director Xin Yukun is really powerful, through the revelation of layers of stories, eliminating obstacles and making people understand the deep meaning of human redemption.
There are many suspense anime, but Toshi Imamoto's "Red Hot Chili Peppers" must not be missed, it is the same as "Inception", it is all about the story of dream extension, the film is adapted from Yasutaka Tsutsui's sealed work "Dream Detective", telling the story of the beautiful physician Atsuko Chiba transformed into the dream detective Red Hot Chili Peppers, through the monitoring of the patient's dream "DC MINI" instrument "DC MINI", one day the instrument was stolen, Red Hot Chili Peppers and the dream-destroying terrorists engaged in a fierce struggle. Dreams and reality are intertwined, which is true or false, who is the murderer?
When I watched it for the first time, I didn't understand it at all, the animation length was only one and a half hours, but it showed a strange dream world with many twists and turns, and sometimes the mind couldn't help but be trapped in it, it was difficult to extricate itself, rich and gorgeous color pictures, character dolls with different forms, ups and downs of the plot, magic and wonderful.
In the inhuman real world, the only remaining hermitage of humanity is the dream. The description, design and expansion of dreams in the film are imaginative and extremely rich, interspersed with a lot of professional terms, and even the original author Yasutaka Tsutsui actively admits that the film is more vivid and vivid, and almost restores the layout and description of all the words.
If you also like suspense anime, Imatoshi's "Unma Tribe", "Millennium Actress", "Tokyo Godfather" and other anime movies do not miss Oh, when you first watched "Delusional Agent", you have the feeling of being hypnotized, dull and full of curiosity, what is the final murderer of the development of the story.
When I first saw this movie, I was immediately attracted by the plot, the movie is divided into several plots, through the characters' respective stories, which is very interesting and tests the coherence of the plot. Director Tetsuya Nakajima was a former advertising director, so the scene at the beginning of the film where the milk falls and treads water after school is a small advertising MV, in addition to this paragraph, the plot of the whole movie is fascinating, interlocking, a bright suspense color, but with a dark psychological meaning, from the beginning to know who is the murderer of the female teacher's daughter, until to find out why they kill the motive drive.
No one is completely good, no one is completely evil, in this movie is vividly expressed, you think of the good people, in fact, the heart is ugly, you think of the bad people, but always leave room, after watching the movie, which of your favorite characters?
"Confessions" This suspense movie, there is no tense rhythm, everywhere exudes a beautiful slow-motion picture, as if it is different from some suspense movies that have been seen before, so many people feel that the content is pale and empty and abandon the play, in fact, it is not, compared with the original work, the movie has enriched a lot of details. Everyone is looking for different spiritual sustenance, some people can be mediocre for a lifetime, some people are willing to pay the price of their lives, this movie hides a warning to the slanted real life, it seems that everyone is not related to each other, but there is a butterfly effect of the causal cycle. Finally, Matsu takako's questioning and revenge: I'm joking... Simply not too exciting.
The above 10 movies are just the tip of the iceberg of suspense films, such as "Horror" in 1960, "Miracle in the Green" in 1999, "Memory Fragments" in 2000, "Butterfly Effect" in 2004, "Horror Cruise" in 2009, "Disappearing Lovers" in 2014... There are also a lot of good suspense movies, which are impressive.
Every movie has wonderful details that are worth remembering, and they are often watched and updated. Welcome to leave a message to discuss, share their own recommendation ah ~
