關於恐怖電影的10件事,你知道嗎?(下)

Hills Have Eyes

5.隔山有眼

The Hills Have Eyes is a gruesome horror movie about a US family being stalked by a group of psychotic mutants in the desert. There is plenty of blood and gore as humans, mutants, and animals are massacred.

《隔山有眼》是一部超級血腥的恐怖片。影片講述了一對美國夫婦爲慶祝結婚紀念日，帶着家人開車做一次穿越國境的長途旅行，不想在途中遭受一羣畸形怪物的襲擊，伴隨着一系列慘無人寰的血腥殺戮。

The inspiration for this bloody movie and its sequels comes from a dark legend originating from Scotland. The legend goes that a sadistic cannibal by the name of Sawney Bean and his clan murdered and feasted on at least 1,000 people while hiding out in a cave on a beach on the southwestern coast of Scotland. Wes Craven confirmed that this legend was the main inspiration for the script of the remake of The Hills that was released in 2006.

這部影片（包括其續集）的靈感來自於蘇格蘭的一個恐怖傳說。相傳蘇格蘭有一個叫Sawney Bean的殘暴食人族，他們殺人成性，在蘇格蘭西南海岸殺了至少1000號人，大飽口福。編劇韋斯·克雷文認爲正是這個恐怖傳說，纔有了於2006年翻拍的《隔山有眼2》。

Omen

4.天魔

As creepy as The Omen may be, it doesn't have a patch on the real-life events surrounding it. It probably didn't help that the movie was released on June 6, 1976.

《天魔》於1976年6月6日上映，之後一系列倒黴事接踵而來。

The movie includes a scene where a man is beheaded by a glass plate. In real life, the specials effects consultant who created the scene was killed in a car accident, his body cut in half. Another sad incident was the suicide of actor Gregory Peck's son soon after he accepted the role of Damien's father. Flying to England to start filming saw Peck's plane being struck by lightning twice and almost crashing into the ocean.

還記得片中那驚人一幕嗎？玻璃盤飛過，男子身首異處。在現實中，爲這一場景作特效的特效師在一場車禍中被攔腰截斷。悲劇還在上演，演員格雷戈·瑞派克正要飛往英國開拍，他所乘的航班被閃電擊中兩次，差點栽進海里；瑞派克接了達米安父親這一角色後不久，他兒子就自殺了；

The producer of the movie was staying at the Hilton hotel in London when it was hit by a bomb blast. Luckily, Mace Neufield wasn't in his room at the time. He also missed another bomb blast by mere minutes when a restaurant was blown up minutes before he arrived.

製片人梅斯·紐菲德住的倫敦希爾頓酒店又遭炸彈襲擊，幸好當時他不在房間；僅僅幾分鐘後他又遇到另一起炸彈襲擊，他前往的飯店被炸，還好當時他還沒到，險離虎口。

Babadook

3.巴巴杜/鬼書

Just after the turn of the millennium, Jennifer Kent was told a weird and creepy story. One of her girlfriends told her about her son being terrified of what he called a "bogeyman" stalking him. In order to keep the young boy calm, his mother would pretend to be able to see it and carry on conversations with it.

喜迎千禧年的餘熱還未散去，珍妮弗·肯特（《巴巴杜》導演及編劇）就聽到一個詭異的故事：她的一位女性朋友的兒子最近老是神經兮兮地說有個妖怪纏着他，爲了安撫兒子，這位女性朋友裝作也看到了“妖怪”還跟它對話。

The story stuck with Kent, and she produced a short film in 2005 based on it. Years afterward, the story still wouldn't leave her and eventually resulted in 2014's hit horror film The Babadook. Kent surmised that the mom who told her the original story gave her the lasting inspiration to come up with the horror movie. It led her to creating the character of the mom in the movie and also eventually realizing that she had made a psychological horror film that resonated with mothers worldwide.

肯特聽到這件事後十分震驚，以此事爲藍本於2005年拍攝了一部短片。多年以後，這事還存於她的腦海裏揮之不去，於是2014年恐怖電影《巴巴杜》問世了，轟動一時。肯特認爲是她這位朋友的故事激發了自己無盡的靈感，創作了這部恐怖電影。影片中，她以這位朋友爲原型，打得是“心理戰”：母子倆一直不能化解亡夫、失父的心靈創傷，不能正視就無法擺脫，最終發展到幻視、幻聽、精神失常崩潰；直到最後正面那些痛苦記憶，不再害怕它，才走出了情感陰霾。這樣的情節和人物設定，惹哭了很多觀影的母親們。

Conjuring 2

2.招魂2

A wave of paranormal activity claims flooded the Internet after The Conjuring 2 was released in 2016. A woman was reportedly possessed by evil during a screening of the movie, and news websites jumped onboard and claimed that the story was true. On Facebook, a post about a man who claimed to have found a cross on his hotel room mirror the night he watched the movie went viral.

2016年《招魂2》上映後，網友們也大呼自己也見過超自然現象！哦對，也就是見鬼啦。據傳聞，一女子在電影放映期間被惡靈附身，新聞媒體還站出來指證確有其事。之後臉書上又有篇帖子大肆傳播，有個男人稱那晚看了《招魂2》後在旅館鏡子裏看到一個十字架。

While all these claims are highly dubious at best, one creepy event remains unexplained at the time of this writing: A 65-year-old man watching the film at a cinema in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India, fainted during the last part of the movie after complaining of pain in his chest. After being taken to the nearest hospital, the man was declared dead, and his body was sent off to another hospital for a postmortem. However, the body as well as the driver meant to transport it went missing and haven't been found yet.

雖然網上這些傳言可能是譁衆取寵，毫無可信度，但是有一事到現在還是未解之謎。印度一位65歲男性在泰米爾納德邦的電影院裏看《招魂2》，在影片高潮後突然直喊心口疼，之後變得氣若游絲。人們趕緊把他送往最近的醫院，醫生卻宣佈他不治死亡。老人的遺體被送往另一家醫院屍檢，然而屍體連同運送屍體的司機一起失蹤了，現在還沒找到。

1.10 Cloverfield Lane

1.科洛弗道10號

On top of being a great movie, 10 Cloverfield Lane also has one of the most talked-about twist endings of any movie in 2016. It is essentially about a crazy man who keeps two people hostage in his home after telling them the air outside is toxic and that they will die if they try to escape.

影片講述的是一個女孩被一個喪心病狂的男子霍爾德囚禁在地下室裏，還被告知別想着逃，外面的世界已經被外星人霸佔了，地下室是相對安全的。

Naturally, when the main character does escape, she finds something even crazier than the story her captor told her. However, what only some people may have realized is that the film is actually about domestic abuse, as pointed out by several film critics. One critic in particular remarked how the film points out that simply leaving a bad situation doesn't make all of the problems magically disappear. The director of the film was pleased that some people picked up on the nuances of the film and looked deeper than just the surface of what they were watching.

漸漸地，女主開始懷疑“救命恩人”霍爾德的動機，再一次逃跑，不曾想到發現了更爲驚人的事實。但是，有些影評人指出這部電影實際上反映的是家庭暴力，其中有位闡釋了電影是如何一步步地傳達出“逃離困境並不能解決問題”這一中心主題。影片導演對有人可以看到影片中的微妙之處，並且分析地如此深刻而深感欣慰。
