When it comes to horror movies, it may come to mind that Japan's Midnight ring, the American call, the ghost of Thailand ... But every time I scare you, it's a ghost that comes with scary background music, a late-night phone call or bloody violence scene, and the classic thriller elements. The upcoming film xoxo may change the stereotype of thrillers because it's a brand new thriller with social media Facebook as its theme.
XOXO's story line is about an engaged senior official who has started a virtual relationship with a mysterious woman on Facebook, which has led to deadly trouble in real life. It's not the first time social media has ever played a monster in a movie (for example, film catfish and Hard Candy), just imagine that the director converts late-night phone calls into our familiar Facebook message prompts, and also makes us jump in the middle of the night, Did you have a feeling of fear when you logged on to Facebook the next day?
In fact, it's no wonder that most people think Facebook, Twitter and other social media are scary, and suddenly find themselves living in a time when even strangers can know what you're doing, and that's what we voluntarily offer because we believe in social media. The variety of paranoid, psycho-tactical games, and anonymous communications that exist on the web have made social media a place where xoxo is trying to convey a source of thriller.
XOXO by the adjustment according director George Nolfi and the Black Swan writer Mark Heyman, is expected to launch in 2014, do not know the number of Facebook users will not affect it? Will Xiao tie sue them?
Anyway, with the toe to know it will not be released in the country, there is a "micro-Bo Ghost" series of micro-movies, as for fear not to look good, it is up to you to decide.
