The bunny is obsessed with me.
We slowly waited for the movie to start.
Waiting wasn’t particularly boring.
I could soothe my boredom with popcorn, and when I was thirsty, I could drink Coke.
It was showing trailers of various horror movies, so it was a structure that couldn’t be boring.
I decided to keep in mind a few of my favorite movies from the trailers.
There were a few movies that seemed more interesting than I thought.
A movie where you go to a test of courage with your friends and end up in an abandoned hospital.
A movie about moving into a house where an executed murderer lived, and his father being possessed by the killer’s soul.
A film that confronts the fear that comes from the indescribable.
In addition, trailers for other films were being screened.
“Kyung-hee, don’t you think that would be fun? Cosmic horror.”
“… What?”
Kyeong-hee, terrified, looked at me trembling.
Seeing that she was already very nervous just from the trailer, it seemed that the training Kyung-hee had been doing all this time was useless.
I shouldn’t be nervous already.
The movie hasn’t even started yet. Still, looking at her breathing gradually sinking, it seemed to be better than last time.
The other time, he was still attached to me without being able to breathe deeply.
“The movie starts.”
I said that and took a sip of Coke.
Before long, the screen showed people preparing for filming in a dark abandoned hospital.
Except for a few people who appeared to be the main characters, everyone else seemed like extras.
A director and a cameraman. And one actress and one male actor who seem to be the main characters.
Other than that, I’d probably die soon.
I could tell just by looking at it.
In horror movies, extras die quickly, after all.
The director was comforting the frightened people.
It seemed that horror films worthy of being submitted to this film festival could only be filmed here.
The moment when I was just saying that there was no need to worry because I had already done a good job, had a ancestral rite, and had done everything.
The neck of the light that was illuminating the surroundings right behind him suddenly broke.
The lens was cracked and fragments flew out.
The director’s expression, which had been fine until just a moment ago, turned blue.
I fixed my eyes on the screen while trying to hold the entangled Kyunghee in a relatively natural way.
This development was so boring that I was about to yawn.
The atmosphere and background music were good, but the way it unfolds is obvious, so I couldn’t have been more immersed in it.
Contrary to my expectations, however, the director thought about it for a while and decided that it would be better to quit.
A majority of people agreed with that opinion.
However, only one person, a male actor who seemed to be the main character, spoke cautiously.
The question was, if I don’t shoot here, what will happen if there are more losses.
Hearing the question, the director wiped his face with his hand.
Eventually, filming resumed due to practical problems.
What’s funny and sad is that the longer the filming was delayed, the more money was lost, so everyone was preparing hard.
Normally, when something like this happens, it would be difficult for everyone to prepare, but here, everyone was working hard.
After removing the broken lights and preparing for filming, people entered the hospital.
They didn’t go in and shoot right away, but they seemed to check the things they had installed in advance.
Whether it’s CCTV or intentionally painted graffiti. things like that
However, there was something strange about the inspection scene.
People were normally checking to see if the shooting was ready, but strange things were happening around them.
The picture frame, which must have been lying on the ground, was overturned after a person passed by.
Even though I didn’t draw tears of blood, red marks came down from graffiti.
The ominous signs followed cautiously.
Of course, the audience with a more distant view was to die for.
The atmosphere itself is already gloomy, because strange things happen in the background.
Since he didn’t even highlight the bizarre things, it added to the impression that this wasn’t a big deal.
At this point, Kyung-hee completely flipped the armrests and pressed her body against me through them.
Filming started right after that.
The concept of the movie may be that of a YouTuber who came to film the abandoned hospital, and several actors were seen carrying filming equipment.
Taking the opening at the entrance, they slowly went inside.
There, the director shouted cut, and soon began preparations for the next scene.
People dressed as ghosts were gathered, and the place where security officers would be deployed in case of emergency was checked again.
The director, who was busy thinking of finishing all the filming inside, covered the script.
But something was strange. The page the director was looking at a moment ago had characters written on it.
The names of the people dressed as ghosts were also written on it, and there were five ghosts from A to D.
However, the number of people portrayed dressed as ghosts was several more than that.
The director didn’t notice that, and continued filming.
Everything seemed to be going well.
The actors performed as passionately as they could, and the agents well prevented a safety accident in the middle.
In addition, the director was running passionately, so it was at the point where the tension was about to ease.
Kyung-hee must have relaxed too, to the point of muttering that the filming scene was amazing.
But I knew
Horror movies usually have something going on here.
So, I did not slow down and continued to watch.
At some point, the director was adjusting the situation to shoot a new scene.
It was a scene where a female YouTuber who was walking blindly fell and injured her leg, and everyone was having a meeting.
And the moment I tried to retreat for safety reasons, it seemed to be a scene where the door closed and everyone was trapped.
After the director finished all the coordination, he slowly started filming the scene.
Everything seemed to be going perfectly.
The moment when the slow-falling actress injured her leg and was about to shout cut.
Not smoke, but desperate screams echoed through the abandoned hospital.
The actress, who had seriously injured her leg, wept.
Blood flowed, and security guards on standby hurriedly gave the actress first aid.
As the situation took a turn for the worse, people outside also came inside.
Naturally, the director kicked out some of the people who had entered and urged them to call 911 quickly.
And the moment I asked the actress if she could walk.
“Aww… !”
The light went out.
I wiped the eyes of Kyung-hee, who was crying and laughing, with my hand.
Perhaps the others were also surprised, and there were small screams and curses coming from here and there.
I heard a familiar voice in the middle, but I didn’t think it was Park Jin-soo.
There was no way Park Jin-soo would miss a chance to look good to a woman.
Anyway, the movie continued.
Each person turned on what could be called a light source, then looked for the exit.
The scene continued for a while, and then everyone started looking for an exit when the director said that they might have to find an exit.
It wasn’t rushing. It was so strange to see each of us form a group or go find it with someone close to us.
Usually, a mess happens here, but this seemed like a strange direction.
Meanwhile, the actor and director stayed with the actress to calm her down.
The moment when the safety staff said that they had done all the first aid as much as possible.
The light that shone in the farthest distance disappeared in an instant.
Of course, the sound of footsteps and voices from there disappeared.
The security guard immediately turned on a flashlight and walked over to it.
And the lifeguard’s light soon went out.
With the actress screaming right after that, the film reached its climax.
After that, it was a series of frightening scenes.
A person suddenly dies, or a person who was not there before is walking next to you.
A lifeguard is treating an injured person, and someone in a gown is calmly helping him.
It was truly like playing with people.
Fear was bound to become dull if it overlapped too much.
So horror movies had to control the interval and intensity well.
In that respect, it would have been nice to say that this film had its spacing well placed.
The fear that suddenly strikes after reassuring people was not something that could be easily endured.
Even I, who can see scary things well, almost screamed a few times, but other people would be horrified.
The movie was quite amusing.
The moment when everything was over and the incident at the abandoned hospital was about to end.
The director who brought the film to the festival aired the film with a smile.
The director explained about the accident and said that everything went well, but only the whites of his eyes remained.
The movie ended like that, and people staggered to their feet.
Reviews of the film were fairly honest.
Most of the couples who came for the atmosphere were not even able to figure it out.
I wrapped my arms around Kyung-hee’s waist and lifted her up.
It was so cute that she was even shedding tears because of how scared she was.
“Let’s go home now, Kyunghee.”
“yes… By the way, Siwoo, weren’t you scared?”
“A few times in between, I was scared too.”
“courage… three… ”
Kyunghee wiped her eyes with her sleeve and shook her head.
Then, he was seen putting on his normal expression again.
But as expected, it seemed to cling to me more than before watching the movie.
I smiled and took Kyung-hee out of the cinema.
However, as if not to be vigilant until the end, the work actually exploded there.
I closed my eyes as I saw Park Jin-soo and Han So-wol sitting arm in arm near the cinema.
I couldn’t figure out why the two of them were here.
