【好雷】The Birds 鳥

Image
上映日期:Jul/12/2024 類型:Drama/Horror/Mystery 導演:Alfred Hitchcock 演員:Rod Taylor、Tippi Hedren、Jessica Tandy、Suzanne Pleshette、Veronica Cartwright Viola's Rating:8.5 去年適逢《鳥》上映60週年,北美也以4K修復的規格重映,今年台灣也特別安排經典重映,讓影迷能在大銀幕上欣賞緊張大師希區考克「可能」最不恐怖的電影,但對於怕鳥的觀眾來說,這部動物災難片始祖,應該還是完全不想碰的經典。

【好雷】Red Rooms 紅色房間

Image
上映日期:Jun/21/2024 類型:Crime/Horror/Mystery 導演:Pascal Plante 演員:Juliette Gariépy、Laurie Babin、Elisabeth Locas、Maxwell McCabe-Lokos、Natalie Tannous Viola's Rating:8.3 以「直播殺人」為主題的電影不少,這類型的電影想當然而一定是限制級,但《紅色房間》卻僅為輔12級,不免讓大家對於電影的內容更加好奇。 雖說觀看這類型電影的時候,並沒有誰真的在某個隱密的房間遭到殺害,但觀眾可曾想過自己會「想要」觀看這些可怖畫面的動機,與真的在暗網上欣賞殺人直播的人有何不同呢?

上映日期:Oct/27/2023 類型:Horror 導演:余修善 演員:Zafreen Zairizal、Deena Ezral、Piqa、Shaheizy Sam、June Lojong、Khairunazwan Rodzy Viola's Rating:8.2 成長令人期待,但也充滿驚奇與未知。《虎紋少女》將青春期少女的身心靈變化,以奇幻與肉體恐怖的方式呈現出來。不但在坎城影展的「國際影評人週」單元競賽項目拿下最佳影片,也入圍今年台北電影節的最佳國際新導演,更將代表馬來西亞角逐奧斯卡最佳國際影片。

Sick of Myself: A Dark Satire on Self-Promotion

Image
Release Date:Apr/12/2023 Genre:Comedy/Drama/Horror Director:Kristoffer Borgli Cast:Kristine Kujath Thorp、Eirik Sæther、Anders Danielsen Lie Viola's Rating:8.0 We’re living in an era of self-promotion. People are sick of receiving and viewing fake images of others with all the filtered pictures and glorified descriptions, and that’s the reason why apps like “Be Real” are popular nowadays. Norwegian satire Sick of Myself , which discusses this sick trend with exaggerated behaviors, is indeed thought-provoking. As a black comedy that’s dark enough to be considered as a horror drama, Sick of Myself tells the story of the protagonist, Signe. She has been increasingly overshadowed by her boyfriend’s recent rise to fame as a contemporary artist creating sculptures from stolen furniture. Signe then comes up with an aggressive plan to reclaim her rightfully deserved attention. Maybe introverts don’t want people’s attention, but it’s still good to be “seen,” and that’s the magic and power of ...

【好雷】Sick of Myself 我恨我自己

Image
上映日期:Jul/7/2023 類型:Comedy/Drama/Horror 導演:Kristoffer Borgli 演員:Kristine Kujath Thorp、Eirik Sæther、Anders Danielsen Lie Viola's Rating:8.0 社群媒體氾濫與網紅文化當道,造成即便不是名人的一般人可能也會在發文前再三思量。不過,分享生活與炫耀、自戀之間的界線到底在哪裡,是身為現代人的我們必須謹記在心的。挪威電影《我恨我自己》結合黑色喜劇與肉體恐怖的元素,以誇張的手法諷刺當代「求關注」的風潮與文化,給觀眾滿滿的不適感。

【好雷】Character 魔仿犯

Image
上映日期:Dec/10/2021 類型:Crime/Horror/Thriller 導演:永井聰 演員:菅田將暉、Fukase、高畑充希、中村獅童、小栗旬 Viola's Rating:7.7 近期越來越多日韓作品以「漫畫家」為主角發想故事,像是男神權相佑主演的動作喜劇 《大畫特務》 、酷兒影展的日本紀錄片 《光譜之外》 、由漫畫改編的日劇《重版出來!》(台灣譯為《漫畫出版小姐》與評價有點悽慘的《我的虎斑貓爸爸》等片,都能讓觀眾一窺神秘的漫畫家生活。想當連載作者並不是畫得好就行,立體的角色、實地走訪的田野調查與引人入勝的故事缺一不可。十年磨一劍的原創劇本《魔仿犯》裡的漫畫家也是如此,緊張刺激的氛圍讓本來就猜不透的情節更添意想不到的驚喜。

“I Am Mother”: A New Journey with AI

Image
Release Date:Jun /7 /2019 Genre: Drama/Horror/Sci-Fi Director: Grant Sputore Cast: Hilary Swank、Clara Rugaard、Rose Byrne Viola's Rating:8.0 It has been a while since AI and humanity are discussed within feature films, and when there’s an Australian low-budget, all-female cast sci-fi covering the issue released in the US, and it has done an amazing job of leaving the audience guessing the outcome and ramping up the tension, it’s definitely worth taking a look. Being put on The Black List in 2016, the annual survey of the "most liked" film screenplays not yet produced, the dramatic, horror sci-fi is finally produced and released in 2019. The main plot is about a teenage girl, “Daughter”, who is raised by a caring robot "Mother" -- designed to repopulate the earth following the extinction of mankind. When an incomprehensible stranger, “Woman”, arrives at their site bring alarming news, the unique bond and relationship between Daughter and Mother is thre...

【好雷】I Am Mother AI終結戰

Image
上映日期:Jun/28/2019 類型:Drama/Horror/Sci-Fi 導演: Grant Sputore 演員: Hilary Swank、Clara Rugaard 、Rose Byrne Viola's Rating:8.0 隨著時代進步,以AI為主題的科幻電影題材也越來越多。在機器人發展初期,電影多半討論人類反被自己發展出來的科技攻擊等人工智慧反撲的內容,或是如 《Blade Runner 2049 銀翼殺手2049》 針對複製人等科技倫理的作品。久了之後,觀眾難免疲乏,當然也要往新的面向去發展,而入選2016年指標性「黑名單劇本」的《AI終結戰》,不但從「母性」角度看待AI與人類的關係,同時也是近期最受好萊塢期待的科幻電影之一。

Train to Busan, Trained to Love

Image
Release Date :Jul /22/2016 Genre : Action/Horror/Thriller Director : Sang-ho Yeon Cast : Yoo Gong、Dong-seok Ma、Yu-mi Jeong、Woo-sik Choi、An Sohee Viola's Rating: 8.6 Feature films that pick zombie as main theme are not something new, but it seems that it never leaves the trend. Besides “The Walking Dead” being as one of the most popular TV series since 2010, the 2013 “World War Z” rekindled the genre again, but not only made by Hollywood, Korean director Sang-ho Yeon’s first live-action film, “Train to Busan”, is about zombies as well. This action horror thriller describes what has happened on KTX (Korean Train Express) in the morning when people start to become zombies. While the zombie-virus breaks out in South Korea, a bunch of passengers struggle to survive on the train from Seoul to Busan. Unlike “The Walking Dead” or “World War Z”, “Train to Busan” keeps the main characters, aka the victims, to a confined space, the train. This way, the nerves t...

【好雷】Train to Busan 屍速列車

Image
上映日期 :Sep/2/2016 類型:Action/Horror/Thriller 導演: 延尚昊 演員: 孔劉、馬東石、鄭裕美、崔宇植、An Sohee Viola's Rating:8.6 雖然活屍電影一直以來可以說是與我絕緣的,會去看《World War Z末日之戰》也是衝著Brad Pitt,但《Train to Busan屍速列車》不僅場景設定在高鐵上算是新嘗試,也是亞洲電影少見的類型,就決定嘗試看看了。而觀影後的感想,也如網路上一片好評一般,不過除了許多網友提到的探討人性、扣分的不合理之處,甚至是否與韓戰有關的討論之外,我還看到一些其他議題,希望能提出來與影迷們討論一番的。
