New Shudder Release Best wishes to everyone begins with a A nightmareAnd that sets the tone for everything that follows.
Nursing student, never gave a name and interpreted by the promptly sympathetic Kotone Furukawa, dream that she is a child again by visiting her grandparents-And wakes up shouting after spotting something deeply alarming past a cracked open door. We soon realize that this has really appeared, foreseeing what seems to be her first trip to their rural home since this happened.
And she goes alone. “Of I myself? “She murmurs dismayed to her parents when they call to tell her that they will delay joining her.
Our protagonist shakes the strange encounter, but the strange vibrations escalate even after what seems to be a perfectly pleasant family reunion … at least initially. It is rare to be back in the sleepy village, where neighbors – especially a young man she had not seen in years – was simply dismayed to see her stop from her present life in the big city. There is a sense of anxiety clinging to each frame, and director and co -writer Yûta Shimotsu carefully sprinkle warning signs so that neither the nurse nor the audience can know if this is just “old men acting as old people” and “eccentric small cities”, or something much more distressing.
It is also the thing of that room from her nightmare, sealed behind the only locked door in the house.
Best wishes to everyone Has Takashi Shimizu among his producers, name Japanese horror fans will immediately recognize. He created the Ju-on series, also known as The scalesAnd had such possession of the franchise, he even directed the US remake and its aftermath. Together with The ring,, The scales was one of the disruptive titles of the early 2000s j-horror ridgeHitting terrors of damn houses and wide -eyed ghosts with long black hair. His involvement in Best wishes to everyone links it to this tradition and also signals its support for the 21st -century development of the genre – and this edition certainly proves that there are still new ways to reveal terrible truths hiding in a seemingly peaceful environment.
Like many outstanding horror movies, Best wishes to everyone Rootes his friction on social comments, although US audiences may have to look around after watching the better details of the cultural context. However, it also contains a more universal message of generational conflicts, as well as traditions that remain stubbornly in place despite seeming wildly with the times.
If this review reads as frustratingly vague about exactly what the nurse discovers at grandmother’s home and grandfather – bored, but Best wishes to everyone It is a best experienced film with as little knowledge of its disclosures as possible. Does not enter a spoiler gauge to realize that a movie that came to mind while watching it was that of Jordan Peele USA; There are no murderous doppelglongers here, but there is a similar exploration of a terrible truth that is completely involved in the way the world works.
And as the characters in USAThe nurse peels a layer she can never replace. She is forced to agree not only about what she learns about her own family, but also so many other families, as well as the knowledge that everyone else already has full awareness of something she has been kept in the dark. At one point, someone even jokingly asks her if she still believes in Santa Claus.
Best wishes to everyone It is decided dark; Instead of bending into jump fears, it submits under your skin with more philosophical but no less terrible ways. And it is also packed with bodily horror – a scary extra flower in a movie, whose characters are fixed asking each other, whether they are happy or not. They all say yes, but in a world like theirs, how can we believe them?
Best wishes to everyone is streaming on the fear.
