The Most Terrifying Crime Film Ever Made

Descrizione:

Today we'll take an in-depth look at a sequence from Cure (1997), the iconic Japanese crime film directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa, one of the leading figures of the J-Horror movement. In my opinion, this is the most terrifying crime film ever made without ever resorting to shock value. Instead, its insidious use of editing and sound design play with our perception of the world presented on screen, challenging our reason, which we so heavily rely on, not just to consume media, but in every aspect of modern life. 00:00 Introduction: Context and History 01:45 Part 1: Introducing the Antagonist 05:18 Part 2: Building Tension 12:00 Part 3: Cutting to the Detective 16:01 Conclusion: Narrative Intent
