Whenever I see La Paura I think of it as a companion piece to Eyes Wide Shut, or maybe it is the other way around. Adultery makes both films tick but in different ways. I think Phillip French was right on the money when he pointed out a Wizard of Oz thing in Kubrick's last work. Like Dorothy, Tom and Nicole go through fantasies and nightmares and at the end Dorothy's reassuring childish motto "there's no place like home" is ironically updated to the adult circumstantial adage "there's no sex like marital sex". Kubrick's take is intellectual, he never leaves the world of ideas to touch the ground. He taunts the audience first with an erotic movie and then with a thriller and refuses to deliver either of them. He was married to his third wife for 40 years, until he died. Rossellini was still married to Ingrid Bergman when he directed La Paura; they had been adulterous lovers and their infidelity widely criticized La Paura is a tale, a noirish one. The noir intrigue is solved and the tale has a happy ending. The city is noir; the country is tale, the territory where childhood is possible. The transition is operated in the most regular way: by car, a long-held shot taken from the front of the car as it rides into the road, as if we were entering a different dimension. Irene (Bergman) starts the movie: we just see a dark city landscape but her voice-over narration tells us of her angst and informs us that the story is a flashback, hers. Bergman's been cheating on her husband. At first guilt is just psychological torture but soon expands into economic blackmail and then grows into something else. From beginning to end the movie focuses on what Bergman feels, every other character is there to make her feel something. Only when the director gives away the plot before the main character can find out does he want us to feel something Bergman still can't. When she finds out, we have already experienced the warped mechanics of the situation and we may focus once again on the emotional impact it has on Bergman's Irene. In La Paura treasons are not imagined but real, nightmares are deliberate and the couple's venom suppurates in bitter ways. Needless to say, Ingrid has another of her rough rides in the movies but Rossellini doesn't dare put her away as he did in Europa 51, nor does he abandon her to the inscrutable impassivity of nature (Stromboli). His gift is less transcendent and fragile than the conclusion of Viaggio in Italia. He just gives his wife as much of a fairy tale ending as a real woman can have, a human landscape where she can finally feel at home. Back to the country, a half lit interior scene where shadows suggest the comfort of sleep. After all, it's the "fairy godmother" who speaks the last words in the movie.
比第一部还难看，就牙齿那个有点意思，结果最后走个丧尸结局很无趣，冥婚的小哥哥长得很帅
8《模特》
第一个故事女鬼复仇挺有意思的，直接就物理复仇了，分段式恐怖电影，冥婚最后拜堂的时候有点两极反转，女的像痴汉，男的像小媳妇。
也不得不说这部故事集的电影女演员颜值好内卷。（秋昭贞是真美）
两星半吧，虽然10个小故事各有特色，但水平都太平庸了，也可能是限于篇幅的缘故。无论是对于情节、逻辑、人物、主题上的刻画都非常粗浅，完全依靠猎奇来吸引眼球，以至于整个故事几乎都是围绕那一两个恐怖镜头来服务。尤其是镜子化妆那个，根本就不知所云。稍微好一点的是齿虫和人体模型，分别指向寄生虫病毒以及类人恐怖谷效应。然后主角们的表现依旧是看到危险就是不跑，等着被杀，或者笨到跑不掉，在一部电影里反复这样也是蛮无聊的。二手衣柜那个故事的女主倒是很勇，但最后依然剧情杀。至于恐怖镜头，just so so。这种片子也就是打发时间比较有用
大场面已经有太多可复制的先例，影片的大悲大喜从某种层面上来说，可以把它当成是一种技术活。平淡的生活，拍得也太多，留下印象的缺乏可陈，这就考验导演和演员的功力了。导演有百态细碎从嚼出情感共鸣的意识，但是叙述的本事还没有到火候，很明显能感觉到后期影片的发展脱离了导演的控制，随着影片的自然进展在推进。值得肯定的一点是，阳光明媚下的压迫，比战火连天的效果更强，以上台湾导演留做的很好。不拿苦难作戏，因为苦难也是生活的写照
好无聊啊，本来还以为齿虫那个有点意思，结果又回到了丧尸。。。。
很一般，第二个模仿很久以前一个女巫的伪纪录片，用了爬墙这个点子，但是做出来气氛差了很多。基本上所有故事都是很三流的网络小说，还是十几年前流行的那种。
83/100。#Venice#人生大概就是这样：你憧憬着的那个美好的梦想会离你远去、你敬仰着的那个一身凛然的长辈就这样消失在走道尽头、你生活了无数年的房子就这样被挖掘机轰得一声拆了个七零八落。一切都像冲入激流中的白色大厦，一点痕迹就没有，好像从来都不存在一样。 @2021-09-07 22:47:48
没头没尾的几个小故事，和《咒》一起看的，高下立判
整体风格确实有像贾导倾斜。这是好事，说明内地电影还是有东西在慢慢渗透，影响周边国家的影视圈的！
口水鬼片 完全没有十几年前鬼片的质感了 拼接片鬼片其实也可以拍的很有内涵的情感 的最后一个看完谁还敢去密室逃脱。。。
我觉得这勉勉强强算及格。十个故事全都有头无尾，高潮还没开始就结束了。倒是里面俊男靓女算是养眼可那演技除了吱哇乱叫也没啥了。这电影真丢韩国恐怖片的脸
我是弱🐔 看不了亚洲的恐怖片 点了下进度条30分钟我就不敢看了😭
我比较在意的是这个故事的载体并不是非电影不可，有点“俗套”。
隧道爬出皮箱女，红连衣裙老同学，一人迷藏吃掉你，四眼变态爬出柜，隔壁艳遇异空间，牙虫入脑变丧尸，塑料模特多一个，密室逃脱堆骨骸，自拍整容裂嘴笑……创意点和关联性都为零的老梗合集，远不如导演前作《韩国都市怪谈》
故事还是比较完整连贯的，没有突出的硬伤，也没有很触动我的地方（文化背景的差异可能是个人在某些方面缺乏共情能力的原因），不得不说，在中国语境下来看视电影中所谓的“雕刻家”、“艺术家”、“公务员”这些字眼，还是会产生一定的误读的。

要不是分段式的，可能真的会弃，越到后面越没意思。。。
