Chapter 249 0248: Escape (1)

The relevant departments in Blue Star have loose review and no harmonious beasts, but there is a rating system, which is divided into four levels: 6+, 12+, 16+, and 18+ according to the age group suitable for viewing.

Of course, this does not mean that everything can be filmed. Films like those of Tony Leung and Tang Wei, Fan Bingbing and Tong Dawei, Guo Xiaodong and Hao Lei must be edited before they can be passed.

Jiang Ge frowned when he heard Mo Lan say whether "Painted Skin" would be rated 16+.

Choosing movies to be shown during the Spring Festival is to go for the large flow of people during the holiday, and many families can go to the movies together. If it is restricted to those over 16 years old, the box office will be more or less affected.

If you want "horror", you have to accept the rating, and if you want the audience group under 16 years old, you have to make adjustments. It depends on how to choose.

"Sister Mo Lan, I think, should we stick to this version or change to another version?" Jiang Ge asked.

The horror of the revised "Painted Skin" is focused on the plot after the poisoning of General Peirong, the wife of the general. Two versions were filmed during the filming, one with a bald head and a rotten face with fangs, and the other with red hair, red face and red eyes.

"If it is changed to the other version, it should not be rated. It will be rated at 6+ at most." Mo Lan tried to analyze the problem as comprehensively as possible. After a moment of hesitation, he said: "No, they are promoting it as a horror movie. If the horror level is not high, the reputation will probably be affected."

The selling point of horror movies is nothing more than fright and excitement. In recent years, countless horror movies in the foreign film market have proved a fact that "horror movies that are masquerading as sheep meat" will fail in both reputation and box office.

Okay.

I dug a hole for myself...

If it is promoted as a fantasy movie, there will be no such problem, but it is too late to say anything now.

Jiang Ge thought for a moment and didn't rush to make a decision. He said, "Wait for him to finish watching the finished film first, and then choose which version is better based on the whole movie."

Mo Lan nodded slightly and said, "That's fine."

Since she learned about "Liao Zhai" and knew that it contained hundreds of stories, she thought that Jiang Ge might want to create a "Liao Zhai Universe" or "Horror Universe" when filming "Painted Skin".

What about Jiang Ge?

In fact, he didn't mean that, at least he didn't have that idea.

Mo Lan got up from the chair and said, "He won't bother me anymore."

Seeing her leaving, Jiang Ge rolled his eyes and smiled mischievously, "I don't want to watch the finished film, why don't they watch it together."

As he said that, he pretended to turn the computer monitor around.

Mo Lan's face changed slightly, and he said, "No, I'll enjoy it alone."

Then, he quickly fled the office.

She was careless, because watching the filming on the set was not that scary, but who would have thought that the atmosphere would be completely different after the soundtrack and filters were added in the post-production.

In fact, such movies have always used lighting, emotions, special effects, makeup and costumes to create so-called horror, suspense and fear.

However, once the ghostly lighting, ominous background music, scary makeup and costumes are removed, the original horror movie looks like a group of people making a normal movie, which is not only harmonious but also a bit fun.

The horror elements that Django added to "Painted Skin" are not only an expensive headgear, but also several spine-chilling soundtracks. All these things combined have greatly increased the degree of scariness.

Fear is a primary emotion of people and does not require prior learning.

Horror movies will bring huge impacts physiologically and psychologically. When the senses are strongly stimulated, adrenaline will be secreted outside the body, and then there will be reactions such as faster heartbeat, unconscious trembling of the body, and deep breathing.

So it is reasonable that the modified "Painted Skin" was rated 16+.

Django was interrupted twice, and the viewing experience was extremely poor.

But I still want to finish watching it and wait for it to be submitted for review.

So, I pressed the play button again.

Fortunately, no one disturbed me and I finished watching it smoothly.

How should I put it? Gu Yao and others' performances scored 90 points, Zhu Ping's filming scored 85 points, Jiao Dacheng and others' special effects scored 85 points, and the soundtrack scored 85 points. Overall, it is much more exciting than the original version.

The theme song is of course indispensable. The original "Hua Xin" is used. The song was written by Chen Shaoqi, composed by Fujiwara Ikuro, and sung by Zhang Liangying. It won the Best Original Film Song Award at the 28th Academy Awards in 2009.

Jiang Ge then watched another version. Although Qin Shiyue with red hair, red face and red eyes is very beautiful, the look is not scary at all.

"It's a bit off!"

He quickly made a decision. It's okay to be positioned as 16+. After all, compared with the group under 16 years old, the group under 16 years old is larger. As long as the reputation is good, even if it attracts a small part, it will be enough.

Relevant departments, film review room

Seeing the team leader coming back from the meeting, Pan Hong immediately asked: "Captain, will their team review the pornographic films tomorrow?"

The team leader said expressionlessly: "Why, you insisted on not going after just a few days?"

A team member interrupted: "Captain, he just broke up with his girlfriend, and he felt uncomfortable watching pornographic films."

Pan Hong said aggrievedly: "It's not that he feels uncomfortable, but he keeps thinking about the sad past."

The team leader shook his head and smiled, saying: "I'm lucky today, there will be no pornographic films, but a few horror films."

Pan Hong blurted out: "Are they domestically produced or imported?"

The team leader replied: "Both."

Pan Hong nodded and said, "That's great. I'm not going to watch any domestic horror movies. I feel worse after watching them than I do after watching ruthless movies."

A team member replied, "No, those domestic horror movies I watched last month were simply insulting my IQ."

The team leader interrupted, "Okay, it's almost time."

Several people walked to the east and took out their notebooks to record.

"Japanese horror movies are as bloody, disgusting and heavy as usual. The one from Bu Luo is very imaginative and good."

…

"That horror movie from the United States is very American. The visual impact is too strong. It is full of limbs, mucus and plasma."

…

"Not bad. I haven't seen a Korean horror movie with such rich elements for a long time. It combines many auxiliary elements such as suspense, crime, detective, reasoning, and thriller, but it does not deviate from the main line of ghosts and horror."

…

I watched three movies in a row, from three different countries, and the quality of the movies was very good.

Among them, one was rated 18+ and two were rated 16+.

After the break, the team leader said to the team members: "Tomorrow's final film will feature our favorite screenwriters and actors."

Pan Hong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said: "Painted Skin produced by Huafeng?"

The team leader nodded, and seeing that the team members instantly became more energetic and excited, he reminded them: "Remember our work, do not mix personal emotions in it, and must be objective and fair."

"Ming Hong!"

...

Several people answered in unison.
