Chapter 67

Mark also auditioned several other main characters. This is a work that appeared six years in advance. Unless a fat man is specially invited, it is unlikely to meet the original version. Whether these characters are suitable or not must be known through the audition. Mark dare not be careless. Everything follows the rules, which makes Megan satirize him that he despises the protagonist and plays a supporting role.

Now the main thing these days is to prepare for audition actors and prepare for a trip to Las Vegas.

On September 17, chainsaw was released in 1200 cinemas in beimi. There was no premiere or much publicity. Only a few posters were posted in cinemas and some bus stops two weeks in advance, and a trailer was cut and shown on the bulletin board of cinemas. As for the publicity on TV and the Internet, don't think about it. These 1000 cinemas, In the following days, Warner alone will launch a horror film every week, the survival of the fittest, and other film companies will also launch a lot of horror films. In October of the off-season, blockbusters disappear or are ready to go, and the cinema has become a time for small adult films to compete for the best.

At that time, Megan organized the exclusive viewing of mm film. Mark was the pillar of mm film. Megan understood this and wanted to package and promote mark as a star.

In terms of the sense of oppression, novelty and plot arrangement, the ending of chainsaw 1 is impeccably beautiful. One passes through the heart and background analysis of the protagonist in the secret room of the toilet, and the other passes through the process of the detective looking for the chainsaw, which finally triggers the classic ending: cutting off his legs in a hurry, John got up from the pool of blood in Adam's great surprise. The audience was surprised and surprised.

From the title "saw" "The ingenious pun begins. The four main sources of human fear, such as the unknown, darkness, space claustrophobia and death, are served as side dishes, coupled with a large and real description of the dark side of human nature. Although only a small amount of plasma is used as food, there is no place in the film without revealing creativity and exquisite ingenuity, combined with simple but accurate pain communication and fierce scissors Then, although the cost of this dark stimulation feast is low, it is not ordinary at all, creating a unique pattern.

An ultra-low cost horror film "the thrill of the chainsaw" , instead of taking the three elements of traditional horror films, blood, violence and nudity as the selling points, it played the philosophy of torturing human nature and playing cruel and abnormal, which set off a thrilling storm. It broke the bottleneck of more and more routine and commercialization of horror films over the years. With exquisite ideas and unbridled blood and violence, it added a strong flavor to the golden age of B-level horror films in the 1970s Bring it back to people.

A small production film with a cost of only $1.5 million won the box office of more than $11 million in the first four days, ranking the sixth at the box office of beimi week. Now the summer vacation has passed, but it still dominates the box office. The super blockbusters released during the summer vacation ranked first in "chief underwater 2", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "X-Men 2" and "fake God" and "Terminator 3" At the bottom of the list is "Jedi II" by Michael Bay and superstar sci-fi emperor Will Smith. All of them are blockbusters with huge investment or superstars. Of course, the "Jedi II" behind it has been released for seven weeks, and the box office of beimi has reached 120 million.

"The chainsaw 1" is the only Xiaocheng film to reach the top 10, which has attracted the attention of all parties. Is there another "witch Blair" or "scream" What's more, it's enviable that its success rate is only about 1.5 million. Mark is North Mina, 40% in exchange for overseas distribution rights. In the first week, its share is more than 4.4 million, and it made a profit in the first week. It's almost certain that this will be a big selling film.

When the news reached mm film, the whole company was jubilant. As a pillar of the company, Mark's glory is the glory of the company, not to mention that the company has the soul of the chainsaw At the beginning, many people didn't agree with the production copyright of the sequel. The series was not easy to build, but this good beginning showed his possibility. These copyrights immediately became a hot pastry, and the record of mm film industry caused a sensation in Dewey building. Among many film companies here, it was the first one to reach the top 10 of beimi Zhou ticket room and won tens of millions of box office It must have been, but it never happened in the first week.

When they threw mark high as a victory hero, Megan announced that mm entered the party mode, and colleagues came to congratulate him.

Mark knew that the chainsaw would sell well, but when the news of the real sale came, he was also very excited and gladly accepted everyone's cheers and praise. If there were not two eggs hanging, they would all float out into space.

"Thriller of chainsaw" The record of has also shocked Warner executives. There are 1000 cinemas, more than 11 million, and more than 10000 US dollars per Museum, which means that the attendance rate is no less than 70%, the freshness of rotten tomatoes reaches 85%, the score of IMDB also reaches an amazing 8%, 5000 fans and fans participate in the score, and there are 30 relevant film reviews in the newspaper, with an average of 83 points Mouth beer, which can be called cracking, Warner president Barry ordered to mobilize all resources to operate the film and build it into a gold medal series.

Profitable things are always the easiest to stimulate people's enthusiasm. The top distribution team in Hollywood immediately mobilized 2300 cinemas to join the screening. This number is still rising. Not many cinemas will refuse a movie with a seating rate of more than 70%, and many cinemas take the initiative to join the screening.

Warner's huge publicity department began to vigorously publicize the film. The leading stars frequently appeared in TV media and various talk shows, and appeared at the gate of cinemas in major cities to organize fan interaction and meeting.

Mark's original plan was to lead a leading actor to Las Vegas to shoot the hangover two weeks later, but he couldn't refuse Warner's publicity plan, which was good for the box office, him and people around him. So he took charge of MM company and continued to prepare the preliminary work of the hangover. Megan and Hank loved to be in the limelight, Then lead a delegation to TV or attend local publicity, which will kill two birds with one stone. It will not affect the box office harvest or the preparation of hangover.

The fermentation of the mouth beer of the chainsaw finally brought 2800 cinemas to it. There were a lot of interpretations and film reviews about it in the newspapers. Under the arrangement and guidance of mm, a SWA fan meeting was set up on the Internet to specially publish the news and various interpretation methods about it. This topic has become a hot topic at present.

Warner's newspapers will follow up and vigorously boast that "the soul of the chainsaw" is a very classic thriller. Whenever jiansaw's representative voice begins to play, the chilling fear begins to spread, and the audience can always unconsciously agree with his behavioral motivation after listening to his unique interpretation of his views, There are also various precision punishment instruments designed to express heartfelt awe. This is not a pervert who kills people because of perversion.

The core theme throughout the chainsaw is self salvation. The protagonists often have their own unique world outlook, outlook on life and values, have a strong sense of mission, defend the ideal social system with action, and don't care what means they use, even if they lose other people's lives or even their own. Every time the audience sees that the "sinner" is punished, In addition to feeling the terror of the instruments of torture, they have a deserved end to their crimes, and they are also secretly happy in their hearts. Although many of them do not die, the wicked have their own karma, which is quite in line with the imagination of the general public that they are powerless in the face of evil forces, because another Xiake like Zorro will preside over justice for them.

In an interview with the Los Angeles Daily entertainment reporter, Mark said: "if you relax the viewing angle, you can find that there are many films similar in type to the chainsaw series, such as seven sins. The theme running through the film seven sins is actually similar to the chainsaw, but the former is taken from the word of God and the latter from the human language, But the spirit they express is the same. The Jian saw in the chainsaw actually represents the just power in the hearts of all powerless and powerless people. This power is no longer just a simple spiritual symbol, but more powerful enough to punish evil and promote good. Ordinary people can't protect themselves in the face of "sinners", but when they are supported by strong power, The situation will be different immediately. "

This is to build momentum and boast. Push the jigsaw to the altar. Seeing that the first one is so popular, Mark said, "this is a series of stories. Many things that are not clearly expressed in the first one will be explained one by one in the second and third parts. This is a deep torture of human nature."

Mark said he was in charge of mm, but he also had to attend some publicity activities. With the popularity of the chainsaw, Mark's past achievements were picked out by reporters one by one. It was a bit embarrassing that he was still in junior high school at the age of 20, but then he responded to other people's doubts and ridicules with impressive results. The super popular bestseller twilight was born, making him a well-known bestseller champion, It was a big mistake to think that his talent was limited to this. He successfully entered Hollywood and moved to the film and television industry with a cost of only $1.5 million. He had only seven days of preparation and 18 days of small-scale production "the thrill of the chainsaw" with a cost of $20000 He won $11 million in the first week. What's more amazing is that his first film "this man from the earth" is still on the screen, with an income of millions of dollars a week, and his second film was released.
