Chapter 132: Death is by your side

In a middle-class neighborhood in Dallas, Texas, Kyle rode a bicycle fast on the road, with a large stack of newspapers in a small basket in front of the car.
Although family conditions are good, there is not much pocket money. If you want more pocket money, you can only earn it yourself.
When passing by the entrance of a large convenience store in the community, Kyle subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the billboard on the convenience store. There was a huge poster on the billboard. The poster screen was a bit horrifying, and it said "Death is coming".
Kyle knew that this was a horror movie, and when he went to see "Dark Sun Crisis" some time ago, he saw the film's advertisement in the patch.
Glancing at the electronic watch on his wrist, Kyle speeded up and had to deliver the newspaper quickly, otherwise he would be late for school.
"Hi, Kyle!" someone greeted by the side of the road: "My newspaper!"
Kyle slowed down a bit, took out a folded newspaper, and threw it to the man: "Eddie, your newspaper!"
The newspaper fell on the lawn. Eddie went over to pick it up and saw Kyle riding a car all the way, shaking his head back home.
My mother had already made breakfast, and sitting at the table, Eddie divided the newspaper into two, and put the social and current affairs page on his father's side, and found the entertainment and sports page by himself.
First read the latest news about the Dallas Cowboys, and then turned to the entertainment page.
"A real case of "Reaper is Coming"!"
Eddie took a big bite of the sandwich and continued to look down: "Reaper is always hunting down those who evade their own destiny. In reality, there are many cases around him!"
After eating the sandwich, Eddie wiped his hands and continued to look down.
"In real life, many people have escaped some huge disasters, but the lucky survivors have been chased by the of death and died in various strange ways."
"In January 1993, 21-year-old Jessica Lima helped organize a party for college students in the Santa Maria kiss nightclub in South Brazil, and also helped sell tickets. But when she was about to go out to the nightclub, her sick man A friend called and asked her to stay at home and take care of him."
"Even though most of my friends were playing at the party at the time, Jessica Lima obeyed her boyfriend's plea and stayed at home. A few hours later, members of the party band lit fireworks on the stage, igniting the bubble roof of the club Many people died from inhaling toxic gases, while others died as a result of trampling or being trapped in the fire while fleeing. The death toll was as high as 238 that night."
"Five days later, Jessica Lima and her boyfriend went to another town to play, and when they drove back, they collided head-on with a large truck. Jessica Lima died on the spot. Her boyfriend died in the hospital. "
Eddie scratched his head, is there really death? There are a few more cases later, in Canada, Mexico, the United States, and even a shooting in Texas four years ago.
The time, place, name, and specific history are all very clear. It is impossible for mainstream newspapers such as "Dallas Morning News" to write it "randomly".
Then, Eddie saw the end of the article: "The "Reaper Is Coming", which was officially released on December 3, is said to be a film adapted from a real plane crash. In the 1970s, several students were caught arguing on the flight. We drove off the plane and escaped an air disaster, but in the following two months, these people who escaped from the air disaster died in various accidents..."
Is there really a of death? Or does it mean that fate cannot be changed?
Seeing this, Eddie suddenly became interested in that "Reaper Is Coming".
December 3? The weekend after Thanksgiving.
Eddie took this time to heart.
In Brooklyn, New York, 22-year-old Tom, after a busy day at work, returned home and turned on his computer, ready to surf the Internet.
I opened the Yahoo homepage, logged into the forum, and found that a popular post had a lot of replies.
Tom quickly opened and browsed. This is an interview video. After playing it, it was discovered that several people were discussing the accidental death of one of their relatives.
First, a picture of a beautiful red-haired woman with a smiling face appeared in the video, and then a picture of a red-haired corpse. Although the corpse was covered with mosaics, blood stains and scars on the corpse were faintly visible, shocking.
"This is my cousin, Risa Reid, an announcer for Radio Five in Texas, who died in a shooting two years ago."
The speaker was a girl in her early twenties: "The death of my cousin has brought endless sadness and endless fear to our family."
A microphone came out: "Why?"
The middle-aged woman next to the girl replied,
Because Sasha had just escaped a shooting and died in another shooting a week later.

The man sitting in the middle "interrupted" at this moment: "You must have heard of the Eaton Mall shooting in Texas two years ago? Sasha was on the scene at the time, and she just bought a burger from the burger shop. When she came out, she was attacked by a gunman. Someone knocked her down. Fortunately, Sasha escaped the bullet, but the hamburger bag she was carrying was broken by the bullet.
Many photos and newspapers appeared in the video. Tom took a closer look. The photos should be the scene of the shooting. The newspaper reported on the shooting. One of the newspapers included "Lucky Girl Sasha Reid". title.
Tom unreservedly believed that this was a real incident.
"Reaper didn't let Sasha off. After the shooting, Reaper came and was next to Sasha!" The man's words were terrifying: "Only a week later, Sasha encountered a robbery on the street and was driven by the robber. The gun hit the heart and died."
The man suddenly became hysterical: "Reaper will hunt down everyone who escapes the fate of death! Until they take their lives away!"
After watching the video, Tom found that in the first reply to the post, someone cited other similar cases.
There were girls who stayed in the club fire for the night but died in a car accident. Some were blown away by a tornado but died of rabies bites. Someone survived an air crash and soon died in another.
The fate of these people seemed destined to be taken away by the of death, and they would not die once and the next accident awaited them.
Is there another movie based on a similar incident?
Tom quickly looked at the relevant information: "In the 1970s, several students were kicked off the plane because of arguing on the flight and escaped an air crash. But in the following two months, these people who escaped the air crash He died in an accident. The famous horror film director James Huang, who once directed the "Human Removal Project", adapted a horror movie "Reaper Is Coming" based on this incident, which will be released on December 3 , Reaper is by your side!"
After Thanksgiving, newspapers, magazines, TV stations, and the Internet saw a sudden increase in the number of reports on various accidents. It seems that the United States is shrouded in a cloud of various accidents, and some famous accidents in the past many years have also been It is frequently mentioned in the old and new media.
Everything is telling the public that life is very fragile, and death is around.
The promotion of "Reaper Is Coming" is far from causing the sensational effect of "Blair the Witch", but it has attracted a lot of attention. The film website established by Embassy Pictures specifically for "Reaper Is Coming" has accumulated a lot. The case of escaping the accident and dying again in the accident is extremely eye-catching.
Although water is inevitably mixed in the middle, there are also many cases of propaganda fraud, but in many real cases, the credibility is greatly increased.
At the beginning of December, the total number of visits to the movie site "Reaper is Coming" exceeded 8 million.
Ronan asked people to analyze the IP address of the website. These audiences are scattered all over the United States and are not concentrated.
This also shows that huge publicity and marketing have pushed "Reaper Is Coming" to many people across the United States.
Today, when the film market on the other side of the Pacific is far from rising, the United States is the world's largest film producer and consumer country. Together with the European Union, it constitutes the vast majority of the world's film market.
Films that can seize the two markets will undoubtedly be successful.
How to push "Death Is Coming" to potential audiences is the focus of publicity and marketing.
In other words, find the right audience.
Ronan has never stopped investigating and understanding the market in the past two years. Even in these economically developed areas, one-third of adults never patronize theaters. The core of theater audiences is those movie enthusiasts. They watch at least one movie a week, which can account for 40% of the ticket sales.
Except for the film enthusiasts of the first echelon, the second echelon watches movies about once a month, and the proportion is also about 40%.
After a new movie is released, it is the first echelon that really determines the fate.
These people will pay attention to the new movies released every week, find out which one they are interested in, and then buy tickets to enter the theater on the weekend ~EbookFREE.me~ contribute to the first week of box office for the movie.
The promotion of "Reaper Is Coming" is enough to ensure that the information of the film is pushed to the front of the first echelon.
As long as the first-tier crowd can help "Reaper Is Coming" get a beautiful first week box office data, it will be easier to attract the attention of the second-tier crowd.
The schedule of "Reaper Is Coming" is not good. In the week after the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, the Thanksgiving holiday will undoubtedly release a lot of fans' watching movies, leading to a lower market in the following weekend.
But this weekend is also good, and there are no strong competitors in the film that opens.
There is only one film that opened on a large scale on the same weekend as "Reaper Is Coming". Although the movie "Black Crimes" released by Universal Pictures is starring Denzel Washington, it has a serious literary style and does not have it. Too much market competitiveness.
In contrast, the movies released on the weekends are much stronger.
There were "Doomsday" and "Toy Story 2" in the previous weekend, "Straight Dancing Boy" and "Miracle in the Green" on the next weekend, and "Elven Rat" in the future.
The holiday stalls composed of Thanksgiving Christmas are as lively and crowded as the summer stalls.
On December 1st, all the copies released by Embassy Pictures were delivered in place, and the premiere of "Death is Coming" also kicked off.
