Often, horror movies lose their charm due to performances that don’t match the events<\/strong>. Killers you don’t believe for a moment, strange reactions from victims, decisions that make you facepalm\u2026 these are many of the issues plaguing this genre when it comes to realism.<\/p>\n\n\n

However, for many years, a technique has been used in many productions to make performances more realistic: genuine fear. If you don’t know where the scare is coming from, your reaction will be authentic when it happens, and this is precisely what director Kenneth Branagh<\/a> has employed in his upcoming film, in which he also stars: “A Haunting in Venice<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A technique that always works in horror films<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“Mystery in Venice” is the third installment of the adaptations of Hercule Poirot’s adventures. After the success of “Murder on the Orient Express” and “Death on the Nile,”<\/strong> the director once again takes on the role of Agatha Christie<\/a>‘s most popular detective in this adaptation that promises to be quite different from the previous ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And why will it stand out so much from the rest? Essentially, due to its tone. While the previous films had mystery as the common thread, this time the genre shifts to the point of delving into horror<\/strong>, set against the unique backdrop of post-war Venice.<\/p>\n\n\n

In a promotional video for the movie, Branagh himself explains how he made the scares more realistic. “The actors didn’t know what would happen. They knew nothing about what we did with the lights, the wind, the doors opening\u2026”<\/strong>. It appears that the result of this approach is quite satisfying, although we’ll have to wait until September 15th to see it in theaters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
