"If the soul exists, then we are all puppets, where conceptually God is the great ventriloquist manipulating our carcases of flesh and blood π€΅π€΅. Metaphorically speaking, the former serves to explain why, for millennia, we have been so drawn to the visual appeal of puppets, since we see ourselves fully reflected in them and in their existenceβdependent on a higher being to give purpose to life. However, it also explains why they terrify us, as I think that deep down in our being, we fear being mere manipulable puppets with no real life and no true free will to choose π«£π«£
Dead Silence is a film that has pleasantly surprised me for a 2007 release; I swear I thought it was much more recent since I didnβt even know it existed, haha π π . After watching it, I fully consider it art turned into a puppet story π€©π€©
This film shatters Annabelleβs shell in terms of narrative-visual superiority, suspense, and horrorβwhich is saying a lot, since I know from the community and its reviews that Annabelle has been widely seen and liked due to how commercial it is. Yet, this film hasn't really come to light that much, which is why Iβm bringing it up. I know that what you will see in this movie is, in many aspects, far superiorβmolded from a higher quality wood to shape this masterpiece. Dare to watch and enjoy the Art of Puppetry ππππ»
Si existe el Alma, entonces todos somos MuΓ±ecos, donde conceptualmente Dios es el gran Ventrilocuo que manipula nuestras carcazas de carne y sangre π€΅π€΅, metaforicamente hablando lo anterior sirve para plantear el por que desde milenios nos atraen tanto la visual de los muΓ±ecos ya que nos vemos plenamente reflejados en ellos y su existencia dependiente de un ser superior que le de proposito a la vida, pero tambien esta presente el por que nos aterran ya que pienso tememos en lo profundo de nuestro ser el miedo a ser unos simples y manipulables muΓ±ecos sin verdadera vida y sin libre albedrΓo verdadero a elegir π«£π«£
Dead Silence es un film que me ha sorprendido muy gratamente al ser del 2007, juro que pense era mucho mas reciente ya que ni siquiera sabia de su existencia jaja π π , luego de verla, considero plenamente que es Arte hecha historia de MuΓ±ecos π€©π€©
Este film fractura la carcasa de Anabelle en superioridad narrativa-visual, suspenso y terror lo cual es mucho que decir ya que se por la comunidad y sus reseΓ±as que Anabelle sΓ que la han visto y les ha gustado por lo comercial que es pero este film ni siquiera ha salido tanto a relucir, por eso lo traigo y sΓ© lo que veran en esta pelicula es en muchos aspectos muy superior, de mayor calidad en la madera que se moldeo para darle forma a esta obra, animense a ver y disfrutar del Arte MuΓ±eco ππππ»
Iβm sharing the trailer so you can get a better visual idea of what youβre in for. For those who are old school and watched the kids' horror series Goosebumps, Iβd positively dare to say that this film takes a lot of inspiration from one of the most iconic possessed puppets of that show, while maintaining its own essence and identity. It features a well-defined story with an aesthetic resemblance in the puppets that is worth noting if you were a fan of that great retro 90s series ππππ»
The most positive aspect of the film is that it develops a very appealing lore to discover as the story unfolds. There is the paranormalβthere definitely isβbut the climax for me is seeing the aesthetic variety of the puppets, as this film is designed as an artistic tribute to the history of ventriloquists
The classic visuals of Dead Silence are to be admired right at the beginning of the movie, where the film becomes an intellectual professor teaching us the origins of this ancient profession as the images transition. The director knows we know nothing about what ventriloquism is, and thatβs where he enlightens us while simultaneously paying a grand tribute to this art, which I consider almost extinct
There is no shortage of musicians, no shortage of actors, no shortage of writers, no shortage of dancers, no shortage of content creators, but ventriloquists ππ... Where are the ventriloquists? Iβd love to see one of these live shows at least once in my lifetime, wouldn't you? Haha π€ͺπ€ͺ
In fact, one of the scenes that thrilled and impressed me the most is right during a ventriloquism show... Wow!! That was truly visually exciting to watch π€©π€©, and it was impressive when the atmosphere of that show turned dark and terrifying after one of the spectators disrespected the real art that was shining on stage π±π±
Les comparto el Trailer para que tengan una mejor idea visual de lo que se pueden conseguir, para aquellos que son vieja escuela y vieron la serie con enfoque infantil llamada Escalofrios, pues positivamente hablando me atreveria a decir que este film se inspira mucho en uno de los muΓ±ecos poseidos mas emblematicos de esa serie pero manteniendo su propia esencia e identidad, una historia bien definida, con un parecido estetico en los muΓ±ecos que vale la pena destacar por si fuiste fanatico de aquella gran serie retro de los 90 ππππ»
Lo mas positivo del film es que desarrolla todo un Lore muy atractivo de conocer a medida que ejecuta su historia, hay lo paranormal, si que lo hay, pero el climax para mi es ver la variedad estetica de los muΓ±ecos ya que es un film que se plantea como un homenaje artistico a la historia de los Ventrilocuos
La visual clasica de Dead Silence es para contemplar justo al inicio de la pelicula donde el film se convierte en un intelectual profesor que nos enseΓ±a el origen de esta profesion antigua mientras avanza la transicion de imagenes, Director sabe que no sabemos nada de que es Ventrilocuismo y es alli donde nos ilustra para a la vez hacer un gran homenaje a este Arte que considero casi extinto
Musicos hay de sobra, Actores hay de sobra, escritores hay de sobra, Bailarines hay de sobra, creadores de contenido hay de sobra pero Ventrilocuos ππ.... En donde estan los Ventrilocuos que quisiera ver uno de estos espectaculos en vivo al menos una vez en mi existencia de vida o tu no? jaja π€ͺπ€ͺ
De hecho una de las escenas que mas me emociono e impresiono, es justo un Show de Ventriloquia.... WoW!! eso si que fue visualmente emocionante de ver π€©π€© y fue impresionante cuando la Atmosfera de ese Show se torno oscura y terrorifica ante la falta de respeto en uno de los espectadores ante el Arte Real que estaba brillando en escena π±π±
It's a pity to see that within the artistic branches, ventriloquism has been left in the past. And how could it not be, when you can see how complex that work is to achieve? Connecting with a puppet and giving it a piece of your soul, so to speak, so it truly looks like an individual and separate extension of yourself, is simply brilliant ππ
It also pities me to criticize it, but story-wise, it has rather unappealing characters. The good thing is that they are there for what they are there for... to die entertainingly, haha ππ
But the major drawback is that this negative aspect also affects the protagonist. I didn't feel it was the best casting; he isn't bad, but he isn't that great either π π
A twist ending that truly impresses and isn't easy to see comingβI couldn't figure it out, but that's also because the movie has a wild, wacky wooden mold π₯΄π₯΄. Iβm sticking with all the ventriloquist lore, which I would have enjoyed much more if they were all completely different ππππ»
Da pesar ver que en las ramificaciones artisticas, el Ventrilocuismo ha ido quedando en el pasado y como no ser asi si se ve que es complejo de lograr ese trabajo, conectar con un muΓ±eco y darle una porcion de tu alma, por decirlo asi, para que de verdad parezca una extension individual y separada de ti mismo, es simplemente genial ππ
Tambien me da pesar criticarla pero como historia tiene personajes poco atractivos, lo bueno es que estan para lo que estan.... Morir entretenidamente jaja ππ
Pero el gran detalle es que este aspeceto negativo afecta tambien al protagonista, no percibi que fuese el mejor casting, no esta mal pero tampoco es que este muy bien π π
Un Desenlace que si impresiona y no se deja facil ver venir, yo no lo pude descifrar pero tambien es porque la pelicula tiene un molde de madera disparatado π₯΄π₯΄. Me quedo con todo el Lore Ventrilocuo que me fuese agradado mucho mas si todos fuesen distintos ππππ»
I dedicate each and every one of my posts and videos to my little dog named princess, we called her chiquito, she is no longer with us but from heaven she will see that her existence was valuable and the most beautiful thing that will exist in my heart and soul.
