【摘要】：自从1922年的第一部电影《诺斯费拉图》开始,吸血鬼是好莱坞恐怖电影中最为常见的题材之一,很多观众,尤其是青少年,都被在2008年上映的电影暮光之城中有魅力的吸血鬼爱德华所深深吸引。暮光之城表达了对社会的、现实的、人类终极命运的自我意识及吸血鬼深邃文化内涵的主题。吸血鬼电影已经成为文化特殊的一部分,因此,它值得我们研究。吸血鬼电影和吸血鬼形象的研究在国外已延续半个多世纪,相关研究主要集中在精神分析、女性主义、大众文化、神秘学等领域。然而在国内,关于吸血鬼形象的研究还非常少,且多数为影评,学术价值不大。本文主要从文化研究的角度对暮光之城吸血鬼形象进行分析。在人们的脑海中,“吸血鬼”一直都是代表着邪恶。特别是在早期的电影作品中,吸血鬼几乎都是恐怖、阴暗的鬼形象,尖利的牙齿、面相丑陋、吸食人血、惧怕阳光等等。但在暮光之城中,吸血鬼形象发生了很大的变化,他们不再扁平丑陋,而变得丰满而生动。电影中的吸血鬼变得更为丰满、迷人、更人性化。通过分析我们发现暮光之城中的吸血鬼继承了一些早期电影的传统元素。所有的吸血鬼面色苍白,手脚冰冷,具有非凡的超能力和极快的速度。恐怖和暴力是暮光之城和早期电影的主要元素。但是,在现代的吸血鬼电影中发生了很大的变化。恐怖和暴力没有始终在暮光之城起着主导的地位。爱取代恐怖成为了电影的主要主题。此外,很多社会问题在电影中得到反映。通过使用许多象征性的标题如月食、破晓等等,这部电影展示了欲望与理性的斗争。更重要的是,用了一种含蓄的方式表达了对印第安人的种族歧视。
[Abstract]:Since the first film, Northrophito, in 1922, vampires have been one of the most common themes in Hollywood horror films, with many viewers, especially teenagers,Edward, the charismatic vampire in the 2008 film Twilight, is deeply attracted.Twilight expresses the social, realistic, ultimate destiny of human self-consciousness and the deep cultural connotation of vampires.Vampire film has become a special part of culture, therefore, it is worthy of our study.The study of vampire film and vampire image has lasted for more than half a century abroad. The related research mainly focuses on the fields of psychoanalysis, feminism, popular culture, mystery and so on.However, in China, there are few researches on vampire image, and most of them are film critics.This paper analyzes the vampire image of Twilight from the perspective of cultural research.In people's minds, vampires always represent evil.Especially in early films, vampires are almost always scary, dark ghosts, sharp teeth, ugly faces, blood suckers, fear of the sun, and so on.But in Twilight, vampire images have changed a lot, they are no longer flat and ugly, but full and vivid.The vampires in the movie become fuller, more attractive and more human.By analyzing, we find that vampires in Twilight inherit some of the traditional elements of early movies.All vampires are pale, cold hands and feet, with extraordinary superpowers and extremely fast speed.Terror and violence are the main elements of Twilight and early films.However, great changes have taken place in modern vampire movies.Terror and violence did not always dominate Twilight.Love replaced terror as the main theme of the film.In addition, many social problems are reflected in films.By using symbolic titles such as eclipses, dawns and so on, the film shows the struggle between desire and reason.More importantly, racial discrimination against the Indians was expressed in an implicit way.
