The story appears simple on the surface, but is revealed, especially after multiple viewings, as more multi-layered and textured than Cassavetes at his best. Ostensibly it concerns a 14-year old Catholic girl, Wynne (Agutter) growing up in this post-modern wasteland, who develops a crush on her much older adoptive brother (Marshall)- a crush which perversely deepens and grows into infatuation once she starts to believe he is the local sex killer. This is in itself an idea that makes you sit up and jolt, but as the narrative develops, it continues not necessarily along a linear path but in several confusing and fascinating directions: the family's history, (detailed effectively in chilling flashback during an improvised seance) is a chequered one, and has suffered at least one major relocation and upheaval in the last ten years. At the crux, however, it's the depiction of socialal changes that make I Start Counting so fascinating and elevate its language far beyond the confines of the standard horror film. The major subtext- that teenage girls were maturing more quickly than before, and developing full sexual and romantic appetites (even if in thought rather than deed) but were not possessed of enough discretion to make the right choices- was a step forward for a genre in which its young females had previously been portrayed as bimbo victims (Cover Girl Killer and The Night Caller spring to mind), but not one that all viewers would necessarily agree with. But most striking of all, and possibly the most enduring image which the viewer will take away with them, is of the masterful symbolism with which director Greene invests every shot. Every inch of the Kinch family's world- their house, their walls, their TV, Agutters underwear, bedroom furniture and toys, Sutcliffe's clothes, Marshalls van, the local Catholic church, their town centre, their record shop) - is painted a bright, scintillating white- a white which, by inference, is slowly becoming smudged and corrupted with the dirt of the outside world. White also symbolises, of course, purity and innocence (two qualities Catholic schoolgirls are supposed to hold dear), and it is into this world of innocence that the ever-present red bus (a symbol of violation and penetration), conducted by the lecherous yet similarly juvenile Simon Ward, makes regular journeys. The allegory is further expanded in one scene where Agutter believes she sees the Christ figure in church weeping blood: by the time we acknowledge it, its gone, but the seed has already been planted. Rarely in a genre production has the use of colour and background been so important or effective in creating a uniformity of mood. I Start Counting is as near-perfect an end to a decade as one could hope for, and exactly the kind of film people should be making now- which is, of course, exactly why they never will. A genre essential. by D.R.
回想剧情就能想到旺达拧断X教授脖子吓我一跳
大制作是真的牛 全程无尿点 但是也是真的惊悚🥹旺达的结局也是真的难受😢
1.另一个宇宙的复仇者光照会，和黑化版旺达交手不超过十分钟团灭，就这？
3.5🌟里面元素多的令人发指……不过好歹也是一部法师对巫师的电影，想象力画面感还是很棒的。问题就是太杂乱。最大的惊喜是X教授…旺达最后顿悟的时候戳中我的泪点，为影片提升0.5🌟
在室内镜头调度上更成熟了，悬疑部分足够吸引人，真的露出身后寄生后也没猜到皮衣人是女主。警局屠戮戏的动作设计比新自杀小队里哈莉奎因的还要好。
奇异博士的风头被猩红女巫全抢了，以恐怖片的方式拍猩红女巫太合适了！从镜面肢体扭曲爬着出来，雾气弥漫伴随警报声、仿佛看到了贞子和《寂静岭》……
流着泪在舞池里彻夜狂欢，我想这是这张专辑，这场演唱会给我带来的感受。你能感受到她面对年少成名内心的挣扎，也能看到她用伤感的情绪与唱腔说自己happier than ever，which is ironic。有一些弦乐其实是自作聪明，然而她还是保证了很高的完成度。
Therefore i am的交响乐绝对是把演出拔高一层的存在，同名的演绎也非常棒。恭喜碧梨小姐，担得起超声代女王的称号。
人设全部写崩了，我还以为我在看DC的天启星战争😅
Billie Bossa Nova Halley's Comet
还行吧，就是温导强行给自己媳妇加戏……另外，变身那段竟然有点搞笑
比灵媒不好看多了，就知道应该不会那么简单的精神分裂，结尾有点突然
有一说一，警察局里大杀四方还是挺暴力美学的
Billie在与哥哥探索音乐的无穷可能性的同时也不忘给自己一直以来热爱的家乡打个广告~goldwing唱诗班很精彩，有几首还额外编排进了弦乐，这张专辑也是我心目中她的生涯最好专辑
感觉旺达纯纯工具人了，剧情很普通，x博士和惊奇队长……我？？？就挺离谱的。
这次的温导有点cult！很好玩！监狱一段简直要笑死了群演是认真的吗好浮夸哈哈哈哈哈哈哈！跳脱对他的固有印象，老温就差没拍文艺片了哈哈哈
失控的寄生兽。悬念不强，女囚那段戏挺百老汇风格的，有种打着打着就会唱起来的错觉。拍摄水平很高，剧本普通，妹妹算是人设小亮点，和警察聊灵媒太可爱啦！姐姐最后上法庭会怎么判啊，感觉能扯皮好几年呢，有罪无罪会吵起来的。（完整版1：51：33）
看了这个之后首次生发了去看她的演唱会的想法
1.另一个宇宙的复仇者光照会，和黑化版旺达交手不超过十分钟团灭，就这？
抓心挠肝的想知道Gabriel的控电流能力的来源！
