Ngokuvamile sinombono wokuthi imuvi izosikhalisa nini. Ngokuvamile idrama ephathelene nomdlavuza noma ifilimu edumile lapho abalingisi befa khona ngenkathi bememeza izinkulumo zobuqhawe. Nokho, ngezikhathi ezithile, sizobe sibuka ifilimu ethusayo lapho kwenzeka okuthile okwenza izilevu zethu ziqhaqhazele futhi amehlo ethu agcwale inkungu. “Kwenzakalani lapha,” singase sisho. “Le ifilimu esabekayo! Akufanele ngabe ngiminyaniswe ngokuphelele! Lokhu bekungafanele kungenze ngikhale!” Nazi izikhathi ezine ezinjalo. (Le ndatshana iqukethe spoiler.)

4. Umama

Banenkinga yokwethemba u-Annabel njengomama omusha—njengoba kwenza uMama ngokwakhe. Umama uzama ukuzenza umnakekeli wamantombazane kuphela, futhi ngeke ame lutho ukuze athole indlela yakhe. Ekugcineni, uVictoria, njengoba esekhulile futhi ehlakaniphe kakhudlwana kulawa mantombazane amabili, uyaqaphela ukuthi uMama unephutha, futhi izenzo zika-Annabel kumantombazane zimnikeze ithuba lokuba umgadi wawo unomphela. ULilly yena usanamathele kuMama. Ukungqubuzana kufinyelela umvuthwandaba emaphethelweni ewa, lapho uMama ethathe amantombazane futhi ehlela ukuwaletha kunoma yini elele ngaphandle kwabaphilayo.

Kungani kungalindelekile: ULilly uyafa ngempela. Odade ababili bebengahlukani kuyo yonke ifilimu, futhi kuyadabukisa ukubabona behlukene phakathi ngendlela ejule kangaka.

3. I-Evil Dead (2013)
2013 remake/reboot/quasi-sequel Ukufa Okubi kuhlanganisa i-twist entsha ku-"cabin in the woods" i-horror trope. Esikhundleni sokubonisa iqembu labangane ukuze nje bazijabulise kude nemithetho yomphakathi, abalingiswa bale nguqulo basemsebenzini: Londoloza umngane wabo (nodadewabo), uMia, kuyena. UMia ungumlutha wezidakamizwa, futhi lolu hambo lwekhabhinethi luwumzamo onzima wothando wokumnqamula ekuthengeni kwakhe futhi umsize esigabeni esikhulu sokuhoxa esizolandela. Akekho owazi umzabalazo kaMia wokuba umlutha njengomfowabo, uDavid. Ngemva kokukhula kanzima nomama ogula ngengqondo, ukulutheka kwakhe bekusongela ukuletha enye incithakalo emndenini wabo omncane.

Lapho amademoni ededelwa eqenjini yi-Necronomicon, uMia ungumamukeli oneshwa wokuba nedemoni elinamandla kakhulu.

Kodwa-ke: "David?" Iphimbo likadadewabo limbiza kancane, aphenduke ambone emile, uvalo lugcwele amehlo. Agijime aye kuye bafike bangana ngezinyembezi.

Le filimu iphinde ibe nezigcawu eziningi ezishubile zegazi negazi, futhi izikhathi ezithambile phakathi kwezelamani ngokuvamile azisilandeli isenzo esinjalo.

2. UThomas Oyinqaba
U-Odd Thomas ixoxa indaba ka-Odd, umpheki wasedolobheni elincane olwazi lwakhe nokuxhumana nabafile kuye kwamenzela idumela elikhulu. Usebenzisana nomphathi wamaphoyisa wendawo ukuze axazulule ubugebengu, ngokuthola usizo ezisulungeni noma ngokubikezela ikusasa. Intombi yakhe, uStormy, okumiselwe ukuthi bahlale ndawonye kuze kube phakade, iyamsiza kulolu hambo oluxakile. Ukufika kwendoda engaziwa, kanye nokwanda kokubonwa kwezidalwa ezimbi zisuka kwesinye isici ezijabulela ukubuka ukubulawa kwabantu kwenzeka, kuphazamisa umbhangqwana. Kukhona okuthusayo emkhathizwe.

U-Odd and Stormy ekugcineni bembule impicabadala futhi bathola ukuthi kuzodutshulwa abantu abaningi enxanxatheleni yezitolo, lapho uStormy ephethe isitolo sika-ayisikhilimu. I-Odd ayifiki ngesikhathi ukuze imise ukudubula kusukela ekuqaleni; Nokho, uyakwazi ukuqinisekisa ukuphepha kwabaxhasi nabasebenzi benxanxathela yezitolo, okuhlanganisa noStormy.

U-Odd ulimele kabi, kodwa unconywa njengeqhawe. Lapho eseluleme ngokugcwele, uthunyelwa ekhaya, noma, esikhundleni salokho, emzini kaStormy, lapho baqhubekela khona ukudla ama-canoodle futhi bachithe sonke isikhathi sokuvuka bebodwa. Bese kufika i-sucker punch enhliziyweni. Amaphoyisa nomngani bayangena batshele u-Odd ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokuhamba lapha, ngoba umphenyi wecala ukhulule isidumbu sikaStormy. INI?!

Bobabili babelana ngokugona okokugcina nokuvalelisa ngezinyembezi ngaphambi kokuthi ahambe ayongena ku-ether yokuphila kwangemva kokufa.

Kungani kungalindelekile: Ifilimu ingamahlaya asabekayo. Nakuba inezikhathi eziningi ezithusayo, inenhliziyo elula eveza isiphetho esidabukisayo. Futhi, abenzi befilimu benza umsebenzi omuhle kakhulu wokusifihlela lokho okudaluliwe ngokubonisa uStormy ohlangothini luka-Odd phakathi nesikhathi sokululama kwakhe, ngaphandle kokubukeka okungavamile. Nokho, ukubukela okwesibili kuqinisekisa ukuthi akazange athi vu kunoma ubani ngaleso sikhathi, egcina imithetho eyamiswa ifilimu yokuthi abafileyo abakwazi ukukhuluma.

1. Bubba Ho-Tep
Bubba Ho-Tep inesimo esingavamile: U-Elvis Presley no-JFK bobabili basaphila bachitha iminyaka yabo yakusihlwa ekhaya lasebekhulile, elithuswa umama odla umphefumulo. O, futhi i-JFK imnyama (“Bangidaye ngalo mbala!”). Nakuba isisekelo, kanye nengxenye enkulu yefilimu ngokwayo, ihlekisa futhi ingenangqondo, uBruce Campbell no-Ossie Davis, njengo-Elvis no-JFK, ngokulandelana, bayigxilisa ngokudlala okusuka enhliziyweni. Bakhulu kunobuntu bempilo eceleni, lawa amakhehla amabili ahlupheke ngenxa yokulahlekelwa kanye nobuhlungu benhliziyo, manje aphila ukuphila okubuhlungu okugcwele ukudla okuhleliwe kanye nokuvakasha kwabahlengikazi. Lapho bethola ukwesaba okucashile emahholo, umama omubi obizwa ngoStetson odla imiphefumulo yabantu abadala, bahlangana ukuze bathole imfihlakalo yakho futhi bazame ukuyimisa. Ekugcineni, baphinde baba nenjongo—into okufanele bayiphilele ngempela. Ngaphezu kwalokho, komunye nomunye abatholanga umlingani kuphela, kodwa umngane.

Phakathi nempi yokugcina ngaphandle ezinkundleni zamakhaya asebekhulile, u-JFK ushone esenzweni. Sekusele ku-Elvis yedwa manje ukuthi avimbe lo mama ukuthi angashwabadela umphefumulo wakhe kanye nowanoma ngubani omunye okuthusayo. Uyaphumelela, kodwa hhayi ngaphandle kokuhlupheka inani lokugcina. Ulaliswe ngomhlane, elimele kakhulu, uyazi ukuthi isikhathi sakhe sesizophela. Uthi: “Ngisenawo umphefumulo wami. “Abantu abaphezulu lapho, eShady Rest — banabo futhi. Futhi bazozigcina. Wonke umuntu.” Ubheka phezulu esibhakabhakeni ebusuku. Izinkanyezi zizihlela kabusha futhi zimbhalele umlayezo we-hieroglyphic njengoba umculo uthamba ube ingoma epholile yepiyano. Umlayezo unombhalo ongezansi, futhi ufundeka kanje, "Konke kuhamba kahle." La madoda amabili, ngaphambili ayecabanga ukuthi alahlekile futhi akhohlwe, asanda kusindisa imiphefumulo yabantu abangenakubalwa. Ngenxa yobuqhawe babo, konke kuhamba kahle. U-Elvis usebenzisa amandla anele ukukhuluma amazwi akhe okugcina: “Ngiyabonga. Ngibona kakhulu."

Kungani kungalindelekile: Phinda ufunde leso sisekelo. Ungangena efilimini enjengaleyo ulindele isigaxa emphinjeni nezinyembezi emehlweni ekugcineni? Umbukeli ungena kwifilimu elindele ukugibela okuwubulima nokujabulisayo, abakutholayo, kodwa hhayi ngaphandle kokudonswa okukhulu kwenhliziyo.
