Ifilimu evusa amadlingozi engokwengqondo ne-Indie Horror Abuya (2014), ulandela owesifazane osemusha ohlukumezeka emoyeni ngemuva kokuthola isoka lakhe embhedeni nomunye wesifazane. UClaire (Ashley James) unquma ukushiya e-Los Angeles futhi athuthele ekhaya eChicago. Ulungisa impilo yakhe futhi ushayela uhambo olude ezweni lonke enethemba lokubalekela iqiniso lakhe. Endleleni, uthola elinye iqiniso elibi kakhulu. Esikhundleni sokuthola ukuba yedwa nenduduzo ayeyifuna, iqiniso afika kulo liyincithakalo kakhulu, liphazamisekile, liyacasula, futhi linamandla kunanini na ngaphambili.

Ngahlabeka umxhwele kakhulu I-Rebound's umuzwa wokukhiqiza. Ngakhangwa ngokushesha umlingiswa uClaire. Wayenenhlanhla embi kakhulu, isimo abantu abaningi abangasiqonda . Le filimu yenze umsebenzi omuhle kakhulu mayelana nokuthuthukiswa komlingiswa. Ngaba nozwelo olukhulu okuyinto ebaluleke kakhulu kunoma yimuphi umbukeli wefilimu. Ukudonswa emgqeni wendaba kakhulu ukuze wenze izethameli zinakekele futhi zizizwe zixhumene nesakhiwo kuyikhwalithi efunwa ifilimu. Le filimu ibivusa amadlingozi futhi ijabulisa kakhulu, ikakhulukazi ifilimu ezimele. Le filimu yayinokuqondisa, futhi kwakukhona umuzwa onamandla wokubaluleka kokukhiqizwa. Amaphuzu abemangalisa, eveza lokho kwazi kwezingane zama-80 engikukhumbula kakhulu futhi ngikwazisa kakhulu. Le filimu izogcina ababukeli bayo beqagela, futhi kwaba impumuzo ukusuka kuthrendi “etholakele yezithombe” sonke esiye sayithanda futhi esiyizondayo. Ngokukhululeka okukhulu ukuphela kwefilimu bekungekubi neze, ngikholwa ukuthi ibiyifanele le filimu, futhi ngincoma umbhali u-Megan Freels ngokunikeza izethameli lokho. Ngokuvamile ngokwanele, ifilimu (hhayi nje ezimele) ineziphetho ezikhohlisayo zokundiza ngobusuku, ezenza izethameli zifune ukuhlanza futhi zicele ukubuyiselwa imali.

Umbhali wesikrini, umqondisi, kanye nomdidiyeli u-Megan Freels akayena umafikizolo kumafilimu anesabelomali esincane, kanye nezinselelo eziza nalawa mafilimu. Nokho, kanye nalezi zinselele kuza nemivuzo ejabulisayo. Ngisanda kuthola ithuba lokuxoxa noFreels ngefilimu yakhe, Bopha kabusha.

iHorror: Bekuthatha isikhathi esingakanani? Kwenzeke kuphi ukuqoshwa?

U-Megan Freels: Sadubula izinsuku eziyi-12 ngaphandle kwase-Los Angeles

iH: Yayinde kangakanani inqubo yokukhiqiza okuthunyelwe?

MF: Inqubo yokukhiqiza okuthunyelwe yayiyinde. Saphelelwa yimali njengoba leli bekuyifilimu encane yesabelomali ngakho kudingeke ukuthi siqoqe imali nge-indiegogo. Uma sesinayo imali sakwazi ukuqeda ifilimu. Sineqembu elihle lomsindo ebhodini nomqambi omkhulu nomqondisi womculo. Umhleli wethu naye ubemuhle. Abantu abahilelekile kokuthunyelwe bangisize ngempela ukuba ngiqedele ifilimu. Okuthunyelwe kwakuyindawo engangingayazi kangako.

iH: Ifilimu yaxhaswa kanjani?

MF: Njengomdidiyeli eHollywood isikhathi eside futhi ngihlale ngikhungathekile ukuthi kunzima kangakanani ukukhulisa imali yamafilimu (ngisho nabalingisi abanamathiselwe), nginqume ukwenza ifilimu ngesabelomali esincane. Ngangiguliswa ukuthembela komunye umuntu ukuthi anqume ukuthi ngingakwazi yini ukuyokwenza ifilimu noma cha. Ngicabange ngemali eqoqwa abantu ukwenza amafilimu amafushane, ungenza isici salokho. Ngaqoqa imali ndawonye futhi lapho ngazi ukuthi hlobo luni lwesabelomali esincane engingasihlanganisa, ngabe sengiqala ukubhala umbhalo. Uma ubhala umbhalo wazi ukuthi awunamali eningi ungazama ukwenza izinto zibe lula kuwena. Izindawo ezimbalwa, izinkinga ezimbalwa.

iH: Iziphi izinselelo zakho ezinkulu ngesikhathi ukhiqiza le filimu?

MF: Ngingasho ukuthi ukuqeda ifilimu kwakunzima kunokukhiqiza ngokwayo. Ukudubula ifilimu kuhambe kahle kakhulu. Iqembu lethu lalimangalisa, abalingisi, wonke umuntu wasebenza kanzima. Ukukhiqizwa kokuthunyelwe kwakungesinye isilwane. Uma usuqedile ukwenza ifilimu, kuba nezithiyo eziningi obungazilindele futhi uma ungumenzi wefilimu we-indie hhayi isitudiyo kufanele ulwe nalezo zinselelo ngokwakho. Ngakho-ke ngicabanga ukuthi ukulondoloza lelo zinga lokuphikelela kwakuyinselele yami enkulu.

iH:  Noma yikuphi okuhlangenwe nakho okukhunjulwayo noma izindaba ngesikhathi sokukhiqizwa?

MF: Saba nezithombe ezithwebula ubusuku bonke ngoJanuwari ka-2013. Kholwa ungakholwa, nakuba bekuyi-LA bekubanda kakhulu! Bekungama-degree angu-27 ngobusuku esadubula ngabo indawo yokuphuka kwezimoto. Ngangihamba ngimboze ngezingubo zokulala. Besidubula emgwaqeni ongenamuntu onejeneretha nesibani esikhulu esisodwa. Iqembu likuphathe ngokuphelele njengochwepheshe. U-Ashley James ompofu, wayegodola phezu kwethangi, kodwa awukwazi nokukubona ukuqhaqhazela kwakhe. Siphinde salahlekelwa indawo yethu yokuqala yebha ngomzuzu wokugcina futhi sathola indawo ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ngaphambi kokudubula egcine isebenza kangcono kakhulu kunalokho ebesikuhlelile. Isipiliyoni sonke sokwenza Abuya kwakungasoze kwalibaleka.

iH: Kube yini ukukhuthazwa kwakho ngokudala le filimu?

MF: Amafilimu engiwathanda kakhulu awe-Psychological Thrillers kanye namafilimu e-Neo-Noir kusukela ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yama-60s kuya kuma-80s. Ngiyawuthanda umoya nomoya. Abanye abantu bakuthola kuyisicefe lokho kodwa kimina, okuthakasela kakhulu lokho okungashiwongo, yilokho okwenzekayo phakathi kwesenzo nemigqa yengxoxo.

iH: Ingabe unawo amaphrojekthi owenzayo njengamanje? Imaphi amaphrojekthi wesikhathi esizayo?

MF: Nginamaphrojekthi amaningi asathuthuka. Eziningi zazo zingamafilimu athusayo. Ngizama ukungakhulumi ngamaphrojekthi kuze kube yilapho sesilungile futhi sesilungele ukushutha ngoba amaphrojekthi amaningi ayaguquka noma aphazamiseke nganoma yisiphi isizathu, kodwa ngingasho ukuthi nginamaphrojekthi amahle njengomkhiqizi, amaningi awo. Ngabhala, nginabaqondisi abahlonishwayo enamathiselwe. Angikanqumi okwamanje ukuthi iyiphi iphrojekthi yami elandelayo njengomqondisi. Kodwa ngingakutshela, ngibheke ngabomvu ukuba nesabelomali sangempela ngokuzayo.

Abuya bekungesona isihloko sokuqala sefilimu, iqiniso elithakazelisa kakhulu uMegan abelane ngalo nami. Isihloko sokusebenza empeleni PTSD, alichaza ngokuthi lingahunyushwa ngezindlela ezimbalwa ezahlukene. Leli gama lisetshenziswa kakhulu uma lihlotshaniswa nama-war veteran kwenze kwaba nzima ukuthi agcine lokho njengesihloko. Ngiyavuma, wenze isinqumo esifanele, Abuya iyasebenza ngempela!
