UMichael James Daly wangena emhlabeni njengesengezo esingalindelekile nesijabulisayo emndenini wakhe, okuxakile, wammisa njengomlandeli owesabekayo kusukela esemncane kakhulu.

Njengoba abafowethu nodadewethu asebekhulile kakade asebevele besungulwe ama-movie ama-horror buffs, wagcina ebukele amafilimu ayewabuka futhi esemncane evuthiwe eneminyaka eyisithupha noma eyisikhombisa, wethulwa ku-movie eyayizoshintsha ukuphila kwakhe ngezindlela eziningi.

“Ngikhumbula kahle ngibuka NgoLwesihlanu Ingxenye ye-13 nodadewethu omdala futhi ngokushesha ngithatheka ngamafilimu athusayo,” kukhumbula umlingisi engxoxweni yakamuva ye-iHorror's. Inyanga Yokuziqhenya Esabekayo. “Ngangingomunye walabo bafana ababeyisitabane kusukela ekuqaleni, futhi kwakukhona okuthile ngalabo besifazane ababi njengo-Amy Steel. Babeyizithixo zami.”

Bekungeyona into edlulayo kulo mlingisi, futhi uyavuma ukuthi njengoba ekhula kwaba yizifundo azifunda kulawo mantombazane okugcina amsize wakwazi ukubhekana nobuxhwanguxhwangu okudabukisayo ukuthi ngeke kugwemeke kwingane eyisitabane njengoba ikhula. ebudaleni.

“Esikoleni samabanga aphezulu nganginesisindo esingamakhilogremu angu-300 futhi ngiyisitabane futhi nakuba ngangingaphumile, ngicabanga ukuthi kwakucacela wonke umuntu ukuthi ngiyisitabane,” echaza. “Bengiyehla ehholo nalesi sithombe sikaNancy [ovela I-Nightmare ku-Elm Street] ekhanda lami. Ngangena kanjalo emaphasishi. Bengingacabanga ukuthi bazosiphatha kanjani.”

Uphinde akhumbule u-Alice kaLisa Wilcox ku I-Nightmare ku-Elm Street 4 kanye ne-mantra yakhe yengqondo phezu kwendaba kulezo zimo ezinzima, futhi yamyisa emsebenzini wakhe wokulingisa.

Kulolu hlelo uthi useze wawaqonda futhi wawathokozela amanye amafilimu abengahlangani nawo ngesikhathi ewabona esemncane. Amafilimu afana I-Exorcist futhi Carrie, ngokwesibonelo, isanda kuba nencazelo eyengeziwe ngenxa yezinga eliphezulu lokudlala.

“Ukubuka u-Ellen Burstyn nokubona indlela yakhe yokwenza umlingiswa wakhe uphile I-Exorcist kuyangithakasela,” kusho uDaly. “Sekuyifilimu engiyikhonzile manje. Yingakho futhi ngithanda ukubuka uLili Taylor ku I-the conjuring. Uyamangalisa!”

UDaly usanda kusebenzela ifilimu nomqondisi uTommy Faircloth (Izimpahla Zomndeni) ubizile Isiqalekiso Somnumzane. Kusethi, wahlangana futhi wasebenza noFelissa Rose (Ikamu Lokulala) okusho ukuthi kwakuyiphupho nje.

“Kuyahlekisa ngoba angicabangi ukuthi abaningi babo bayawubona umthelela ababenawo ezinsizweni eziwungqingili,” esho, “futhi ngikwazile ukumdonsela eceleni ngimtshele. Basithole abaningi ezikhathini ezinzima.”

Uphinde waba nethuba lokudlala indima kaMichelle Iannantuono I-Livescream, ifilimu ekade ithatha umjikelezo wefestivali ye-indie ngenxa yokusungulwa kwayo kanye nohlobo lokwesaba i-claustrophobic elivusayo.

Kule filimu, owesilisa ogama lakhe lingu-Scott ungumsakazi wegeyimu enabalandeli abazinikele othola injabulo yakhe ekuxhumekeni kwakhe ku-inthanethi. Uma umlandeli emthumelela umdlalo okuthiwa uhlaselwe, uzithola evaleleke kuwebhu nempilo yakhe kanye nempilo yabalandeli bakhe engcupheni.

“UMichelle uyamangalisa,” esho. “Wayiklama yonke leyo midlalo kuleyo filimu bekumangalisa, kodwa futhi ungumqondisi omuhle nokuyinto edingwa yibo bonke abalingisi, kungakhathalekile ukuthi banekhono elingakanani. Ngike ngabona amafilimu no-Anthony Hopkins lapho engabona khona ukuthi akukho ukuqondiswa kwangempela ngemuva kwezigcawu. UMichelle wangivumela ukuba ngidlale indima ethile, kodwa wayekwazi ayekudinga futhi wakuthola.”

Uma kukhulunywa ngokumeleleka okuyizimbangi ohlotsheni olushaqisayo, uDaly, njengabaningi engike ngakhuluma nabo kulolu chungechunge, ukhala ngendlela abalingiswa ababhalwa ngayo uma befakwa nhlobo futhi ukhumbule isibonelo sakamuva.

“Kukhona le filimu engiyibone emcimbini wamafilimu muva nje,” kusho yena. “Cishe phakathi nefilimu kuvele ukuthi omunye wabalingisi uyisitabane nobekumnandi kakhulu. Khona-ke kungazelelwe, nakuba engazange abe kanje kuyo yonke ifilimu, wayeyisitabane esigqame. Bagxumela kuleyo nkolelo-mbono.”

Nakuba lokhu kuchazwa kwabalingisi kungeyona into entsha–ubungqingili bobungqingili buyindlela kuphela ababhali abaningi abazi ngayo ukuphatha umlingiswa oyisitabane–akulona iqiniso lokuthi kuhlala kuyinhlamba, ikakhulukazi esimeni lapho ukuxoshwa nje kushintshe umlingiswa ngokuphelele.

Naphezu kwalokho futhi kwezinye izimo ngenxa yalokhu, u-Daly uyaqhubeka nokusebenza, hhayi nje njengomdlali, kodwa futhi ubhala izikripthi ezimele kangcono umphakathi we-queer ngaphakathi kwesikhala sohlobo.

“Ngingathanda ukuthola isikripthi lapho engingaba khona ngokwengeziwe,” esho. “Empilweni yami yansuku zonke, ngiye ngibe ngumuntu wesifazane ngezinye izikhathi kodwa ngibuye ngibe ezinye izinto. Nalesi script engisibhalile siyakuveza lokho.”

Ukuze uthole okwengeziwe ngomsebenzi kaMichael James Daly, qiniseka ukuthi uyahlola ikhasi lakhe le-IMDb futhi uhlale ubukele i-iHorror ukuze uthole okwengeziwe Inyanga Yokuziqhenya ukuhlanganisa.
