Abantu bazofuna izimpendulo kanye nokuba sendaweni emnyama kakhulu nakubantu abamnyama kakhulu. I-Osiris Collective iyinhlangano eyabikezelwa emfundisweni yasendulo yaseGibhithe futhi yayiqhutshwa uBaba ongaqondakali u-Osiris. Leli qembu liziqhayise ngenqwaba yamalungu, ngalinye ladela izimpilo zalo ezindala ngenxa eyodwa eyayigcinwe endaweni enetimu yaseGibhithe ka-Osiris eNyakatho neCalifornia.

Kwaqubuka uqhekeko lapho amalungu amaningi eshiya ihlelo ngaphansi kobuholi obungaguquki buka-Anubis. I-documentary yenziwa insizwa egama layo linguKeith (John Laird) okulungiswa kwayo ne-Osiris Collective kubangelwa intombi yakhe uMaddy emshiya eqenjini eminyakeni embalwa edlule. Lapho u-Keith emenywa ukuba abhale phansi i-commune ngu-Anubis ngokwakhe, unquma ukuphenya, kodwa wagcwala izinto ezesabekayo ayengazicabangi ngisho nokuzicabanga...

Usuzoqala Umcimbi iwuhlobo lwakamuva lwefilimu eyethusayo esontayo evela Iqhwa Elibomvu's Sean Nichols Lynch. Kulokhu sibhekana nokwesabeka kwehlelo kanye nesitayela se-mockumentary kanye netimu yezinganekwane zase-Egypt ye-cherry phezulu. Ngangingumlandeli omkhulu we Iqhwa ElibomvuUkuvukela kwe-vampire romance sub-genre and wayejabulile ukubona ukuthi lokhu kuzoletha ini. Yize imuvi inemibono ethokozisayo kanye nokungezwani okuhle phakathi kuka-Keith omnene kanye no-Anubis ongaqondakali, ayihlanganisi yonke into ndawonye ngendlela emfishane.

U-Anubis yiyona kanye incazelo yomholi wehlelo. I-Charismatic, ifilosofi, i-whimsical, futhi iyingozi ngokusabisayo lapho kwehla isigqoko.

Nokho okuxakayo, umkhandlu awunawo wonke amalungu ehlelo. Ukudala idolobha eliyisipoki elikhulisa ingozi kuphela njengoba u-Keith ebhala i-utopia ka-Anubis. Okuningi emuva naphambili phakathi kwabo kuyadonsa ngezinye izikhathi njengoba bezabalaza ukulawula futhi u-Anubis ulokhu eqhubeka nokuqinisekisa u-Keith ukuthi anamathele naphezu kwesimo esisongelayo. Lokhu kuholela esiphethweni esimnandi nesigcwele igazi esincike ngokuphelele ku-mummy horror.

Sekukonke, naphezu kokuzulazula nokuba nejubane elincane, Umcimbi Usuzoqala iyinkolo ejabulisa kakhulu, itholwe izithombe, kanye nengxubevange ye-mummy horror. Uma ufuna ama-mummies, ihambisa kumamumu!

Njengomthandi wempisi osenesikhathi eside, ngikhangwa ngokushesha kunoma yini enegama elithi “werewolf”. Ungeza ama-Skinwalkers kumxube? Manje, ngempela uyithathile intshisekelo yami.

(Qaphela: i-iHorror ayizange iqinisekise ngokuzimela noma yiziphi izimangalo ezenziwe kufilimu.) Lokhu kulandisa kuyinhliziyo yenani lokuzijabulisa kwefilimu. Naphezu kokwasemuva okuyisisekelo noguquko—ikakhulukazi ukuntuleka kwemiphumela ekhethekile—ifilimu igcina ijubane eliqinile, sibonga kakhulu ngokugxila kwayo kuma-akhawunti ofakazi.

Ngaphambi kokuthi uchithe Bulala njenge-gimmick, singakutshela, kunjalo. Kodwa kuhle kakhulu. 

Izindlovukazi ezine zibhukwe ngephutha endaweni yebhayisikili ehlala ogwadule lapho kufanele zilwe nama-bibi...kanye nama-vampires. Ufunde lokho kahle. Cabanga, Kakhulu Wong Foo ngesikhathi Titty Twister. Ngisho noma ungazitholi lezo zithenjwa, usazoba nesikhathi esimnandi.

Ngaphambi kwakho sashay away kusuka kulokhu Tubi ukunikela, nakhu kungani akufanele. Kuyahlekisa ngokumangalisayo futhi ukwazi ukuba nezikhathi ezimbalwa ezesabekayo endleleni. Ifilimu yaphakathi kwamabili emnyombeni wayo futhi uma lokho kubhuka bekuseyinto, Bulala mhlawumbe ube nokugijima ngempumelelo. 

Isisekelo silula, futhi, izindlovukazi ezine zokudonsa ezidlalwayo UZiqu-zintathu uTuck, I-Heidi N Closet, I-Crystal Methyd, Futhi UCara Mell bazithola sebesendaweni yebhayisikili bengazi ukuthi i-alpha vampire ivulekile ehlathini futhi isivele ilume omunye wabantu basedolobheni. Indoda ejikile iya endaweni yokucwala izinwele endala eseceleni komgwaqo futhi iqala ukuguqula abaxhasi ibenze abangafi maphakathi nombukiso wokudonsa. Izindlovukazi, kanye nezimpukane zendawo, zizivala ngaphakathi kwendawo yokucima ukoma futhi kufanele zizivikele ebhodweni elikhulayo ngaphandle.

Umehluko phakathi kwe-denim nesikhumba sabagibeli bamabhayisikili, kanye nezingubo zebhola kanye namakristalu e-Swarovski wezindlovukazi, i-gag yokubona engingayazisa. Phakathi naso sonke lesi sivivinyo, akukho neyodwa yezindlovukazi ephuma imvunulo noma ikhiphe abantu bayo abahudulayo ngaphandle kwasekuqaleni. Uyakhohlwa ukuthi banezinye izimpilo ngaphandle kwemvunulo yabo.

Zone izintokazi ezihamba phambili zinesikhathi sazo Umjaho Wokudonsa KaRu Paul, Kodwa Bulala iphucuzeke kakhulu kune-a Hudula umjaho inselele yokulingisa, futhi umkhondo uphakamisa ikamu uma ubizwa futhi uyibeke phansi uma kunesidingo. Kuyisilinganiso esinokulinganisela samahlaya nokuthusayo.

Kukhona ihlaya elilodwa elingabazisayo elenziwe umshayeli webhayisikili mayelana nokuthi ubani ovela eTransylvania futhi akulona i-brow eliphakeme kakhulu kodwa alizwani nokushaya phansi. 

Lokhu kungase kube ubumnandi obunecala kunawo wonke onyakeni! Kuyahlekisa! 

I-Heidi N Closet ifakwe kahle ngokumangalisayo. Akukhona ukuthi kuyamangaza ukumbona ekwazi ukulingisa, abantu abaningi abamaziyo Hudula umjaho okungavumeli ububanzi obuningi. Ngokuhlekisayo uyavutha. Kwesinye isigcawu upheqa izinwele zakhe ngemuva kwendlebe yakhe nge-baguette enkulu abese eyisebenzisa njengesikhali. Ugaliki, niyabo. Izimanga ezinjalo ezenza le filimu ithandeke kakhulu. 

Umlingisi obuthakathaka lapha nguye Methyd odlala i-dimwitted Bella Da Boys. Ukwenza kwakhe ngendlela exakile kushefa kancane kusigqi kodwa ezinye izintokazi zithatha ukuxega kwakhe ukuze kuvele kube yingxenye yekhemistri.

Bulala inemiphumela ethile ekhethekile futhi. Naphezu kokusebenzisa igazi le-CGI, akukho neyodwa kuzo ekukhipha engxenyeni. Omunye umsebenzi omuhle ongenile kule movie ovela kuwo wonke umuntu ohilelekile.

Imithetho ye-vampire iyafana, thinta inhliziyo, ukukhanya kwelanga., njll. Kodwa okuhle ngempela ukuthi lapho izilo zibulawa, ziqhuma zibe ifu lothuli elibenyezelayo. 

Kumnandi futhi kuwubuwula njengabo bonke Ifilimu kaRobert Rodriguez cishe ingxenye yesine yesabelomali sakhe.

Oh, futhi bayakwazi ukungena emlayezweni mayelana nenzondo phakathi nakho konke. Akuyona inguquko ebushelelezi kodwa ngisho nezigaxa kule filimu zenziwe nge-buttercream.

Enye i-twist, ephethwe ngobunono kakhulu ibonga umlingisi ongumakadebona Neil Sandilands. Akukho engizokonakalisa kodwa ake sithi maningi ama-twist futhi, ahem, ijika, konke okunezela ebumnandini. 

Robyn Scott odlala indawo yokuphuzela utshwala Shiela ungusomahlaya ovelele lapha. Imigqa yakhe kanye ne-gusto inikeza ukuhleka kwesisu kakhulu. Kufanele kube nomklomelo okhethekile ngokusebenza kwakhe yedwa.

Bulala iresiphi emnandi enenani elilungile lekhempu, inyakanyaka, isenzo, kanye nokwangempela. Ihlaya elihle kakhulu elithusayo elizoqhamuka maduze.

Akuyona imfihlo ukuthi amafilimu azimele kufanele enze okuningi ngokuncane. Uma zizinhle kanjena kuyisikhumbuzo sokuthi izitudiyo ezinkulu kungenzeka zenza kangcono.

Ngamafilimu afanayo Bulala, isenti ngalinye liyabalwa futhi ngenxa yokuthi izinkokhelo zingase zibe zincane akusho ukuthi umkhiqizo wokugcina kufanele ube. Uma ithalente lifaka lo mzamo omkhulu efilimini, bafanelwe okwengeziwe, noma ngabe lokho kuqashelwa kuza ngendlela yokubuyekeza. Ngezinye izikhathi ama-movie amancane afana Bulala ube nezinhliziyo ezinkulu kakhulu esikrinini se-IMAX.
