Chapter 207 - The Alliance of Losers Assembles!

"Hollywood Drawn()"!

"it?"

This sudden scene still shocked Todd McCarthy, who had seen it once. The weird sounds at the beginning of the film, the heavy rain that embellishes the environment, and the sudden appearance of the clown are the "it" in the original work.

These elements are combined together, and the camera slowly zooms into the distant view, allowing everyone to clearly see and feel the bloody horror set off by the environment and atmosphere.

This is a movie that most people know about the story in advance. Not to mention the two-part adaptation by Warner Bros. in 1990, Stephen King wrote this book in 1986, and it was the number one bestseller in the United States that year.

So most people have heard this story more or less. What is different from the original work is the concrete "it" of "clown".

The concept of "it" is everything you fear, or whatever you fear in your heart, "it" will become something. Wayne can embody this "it" into an image, which is the clown.

Therefore, the adaptation at the beginning of the film gave everyone an unexpected shock.

This is also where Wayne made the first change compared to the original film. He added an Eastern-style atmosphere rendering, as well as the suddenness of terror, combined with American-style bloody bites. At least the feedback from the audience at this beginning was... very good.

To be the best at this aspect, of course I have to say that the later director Wen, the Eastern horror core and Western expression methods were all outdone by him, and Wayne was just picking up others' wit.

"fxxk!"

Harvey Weinstein was also startled. His upper body leaned forward and he instantly leaned back in his chair. The flesh on his face trembled. He did not expect that the horror of a horror movie would come so suddenly.

However, when they heard screams in the theater and then quickly regained their composure, it was obvious that the curiosity of these people had been aroused, and they couldn't help but not want to miss the next scene, and wanted to follow the beginning to find out more.

"Horror movies are good if they can scare people! Wayne Greenberg, those film critics who say you have regressed are all blind, or are they pretending to be blind?"

Harvey Weinstein muttered words that only he could hear. Along with the fans, he turned his attention back to the big screen.

As soon as the camera turned, the figure of the young male protagonist Bill appeared. His biological brother just disappeared. It took a long time for the pain to be slowly healed.

But in fact, Bill always believed in his heart that his brother was not dead, and might have washed downstream along the sewer.

At this point in the video, the loser alliance appears for the first time, including the chatty glasses boy Richie Tozier, the mama boy Eddie who has a severe mysophobia and carries asthma medicine with him, Stanley with curly hair, and... Bill, the young male protagonist who stutters.

After school, a few people made an appointment to go to the river to play during the summer vacation. It happened that the river was downstream of the sewer, and the friends happened to go together to help find Bill's brother.

When the camera turns, on the other side, the black boy Mike 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 was a shadow that he could not let go of.

That day he was pushing the cart to deliver goods, but the closed door in the alley was different today. Flames slowly emerged from the cracks in the door, just like the fire that burned his parents to death. 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 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 by Mike, although they still bullied Mike as usual, the car scared him to the ground, but this was a blessing in disguise and saved him, the clown disappeared.

The scene changes again. Bill's friend Stanley is particularly afraid of a painting in his father's office. This is a terrifying abstract painting. That day when he went to put something away, the oil painting suddenly fell down.

Stanley slowly walked to the oil painting, picked up the oil painting and hung it on the wall again, 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! Stanley was so frightened that he ran away.

The screen continued to turn and arrived at the school gate.

The fat freshman Ben has just transferred to this small town school. Not only does he have no friends, but because he is short and fat, he is often bullied by the bad boys and bullies in the school. He only likes to read in the library.

While he was reading again, he accidentally opened the book record of the town's history. There have been several mass deaths in this town, including steel plant explosions, bar arson and the like.

When he was looking through these graphic records, he found that the clown's face was looming in some of the photos. Turning back further, there is a child's head hanging on a big tree!

The little fat man discovered that this boy's head looked very much like Bill's brother, but the time obviously didn't match?

At this time, a red balloon slowly floated by, with strange gashapon placed along the way. Little Fatty Ben followed it all the way to the basement out of curiosity.

Suddenly, the lights flickered and then went out. In the old photo I had just seen, the headless body of the burned-to-death child appeared and rushed straight towards him!

The little fat man turned around and ran away. In the dark basement of the library, he suddenly bumped into someone. When he looked up, he realized it was a black female librarian. At the same time, all the horrific scenes that had just appeared disappeared.

Seeing this, all viewers have understood that the essence of the clown and "it" is still the same. It will transform into the most feared and terrifying thing in everyone's hearts, so that it can better devour its prey.

Although this is different from the setting in the original work, the monster "it" was 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 just some background introduction, the horror elements interspersed in them have scared the audience into screaming several times. This is also due to the different understanding of horror between the East and the West.

Remote towns, weird legends, clowns that loom around people, and frequent group deaths in small towns in the past are all the components of traditional Western horror elements. Coupled with the clowns that each child encounters, all this will almost bring unexpected shocks to the audience.

At this point in the film, this is actually the section that Wayne is most worried about. The concept is too advanced, and he deliberately transformed it into a scary point that combines east and west. In fact, he himself does not dare to vouch for whether the audience can fully accept it.

However, when he quietly looked back several times and found that everyone in the huge theater was concentrating on watching the movie, and there were not even the usual sounds of chatting and discussing the plot, Wayne knew that there was nothing wrong with what he was doing.

As each film was shot, he made more and more changes to the original film. Different from seeking stability at the beginning, now he can more boldly tear away things that he thinks are inappropriate, and then add his own understanding.

Some concepts and expressions that are too advanced are definitely inappropriate in this year. We also need to take into account the current social environment and people's understanding of the story in the film.

He didn't want a top-notch horror film to become nondescript after he moved it to the 1990s.

"The movie wasn't what I expected, Wayne."

The horrific scenes that appeared several times made Naomi Watts hug his arm tightly, and also noticed his behavior of silently turning back to observe the fans.

"This is not like a conventional horror film, but there are many traditional horror elements. At least for now, the human nature you always like to play with has not appeared. However, I didn't expect you to be worried about the fans' reaction. It's not like You show so much confidence.”

Wayne took her hand, squeezed it gently, and said close to her ear: "I am also constantly testing the market, and the first-hand viewing performance of movie fans is the most authentic and representative data. Feedback, and I am not a dollar, so I can’t please everyone, and of course I will worry that the response will not be as expected.”

However, the audience in this large screening room made him put aside his few worries and gradually focus on the movie being shown.

On the big screen, the little fat boy Ben ran out of the library, but was blocked by the school bully. The leading kid took out a switchblade and wanted to carve his name on Stanley's belly. He simply brought the ignorant and hateful side of the school bully who is fearless in reality to the screen.

In desperation, the little fat man Ben kicked him away, turned around and ran away. He happened to meet the little male protagonist Bill and the others. The Loser League was usually bullied by those people, so he took the little fat man Stanley and ran on his bicycle. .

When they went to the drugstore to buy trauma medicine, they happened to meet the heroine, Beverly, played by Drew Barrymore, who was buying auntie towels. She was often bullied by her classmates, who spread rumors that she had a promiscuous life.

Beverly also has a very controlling and perverted father at home.

At this point, everyone in this alliance of losers has gathered. Each of them has various family flaws, and they are all children who were bullied in school.

A group of useless kids get together, even if they know each other like this.

From here onwards, the film introduces the specific background of each child, with horror elements interspersed into the story. Now this group of children with different flaws have come together and finally begun to tell the strange things they encountered.

The next day, when they were playing together, Little Fatty Ben also told everyone what he found in the library. The child missing and death rate in this town is at least six times higher than in a normal town. There must be something wrong with this!
