This automatically makes the reader feel a gradual build in tension and by unnaming the narrator it dehumanises him which makes the reader feel no human compassion towards. An unnamed narrator opens the story by addressing the reader and claiming that he is nervous but not mad. This end with the narrator killing the old man in cold blood which is a usual theme in gothic horrors. In this instance the narrator is the villain wrecked my madness and distress and the victim which is an old man who is wanted dead for his “Evil” “vulture” eye that torments the narrator. Gothic horror combines the elements of horror and romance into its own style, the style includes different aspects that normally re-occur in the genre A darkened atmosphere and a rickety old house which gives home to a sinister villain that creates havoc for a certain victim of their choice. Poe’s believed inspiration for writing in this style was after his wife Virginia Clemm died shortly after their marriage. Poe’s most recurring themes were views of premature burial and reanimation of the dead in this case the beating of the old mans heart towards the end of the story. Poe was one of the first American authors to be recognised in the genre gothic horror or simple horror. Poe spent most of his life in the United States army and only started writing literacy after his brother had died in the late 1830’s. He was born in America, January 1809 and died shortly after in October 1849. Remember his long-lost daughter? That's Mi-do.The short story “The Tell-Tale Heart” was written by Edgar Allen Poe in the year 1843. It would seem that Woo-jin has had his revenge on Dae-su, with the imprisonment. Dae-su spread the news, and, he finds out, the sister was so mortified she committed suicide. He went to high school with Woo-jin, and he saw the guy engage in incest with his sister. Dae-su and Mi-do's relationship grows increasingly intimate, but then Dae-su figures it all out. Soon, his captor, Lee Woo-jin, contacts Dae-su with an ultimatum: If he guesses the reason for his imprisonment in five days, Woo-jin will kill himself if not, he'll kill Mi-do.
He tries to get his life back together, but gives up on finding his daughter when he learns she was adopted by a Swedish couple. When he's finally released, he wanders into a sushi restaurant and strikes up a relationship with its young chef, Mi-do (Kang Hye-jung). After a friend retrieves him from a police station, he's kidnapped and isolated in a hotel room for 15 years. Oh Dae-su (Choi Min-sik) gets arrested one night for public drunkenness and misses his young daughter's birthday party. Only your partners, the bedroom ceiling, and maybe Matt Damon should have ever seen that, Ben. We imagine his direction was something like, "Show the world exactly what it's like in Bennifer's real bedroom." Then he probably went back to his trailer and drank until he passed out while Ben Affleck delivered a nauseatingly realistic depiction of the faces he makes in the throes of passion.
According to IMDb, the studio forced Brest to turn what originally was a mob movie into a rom-com to "cash in on the relationship between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez." So, our only explanation for the resulting love scenes has to be that they were a vindictive parting shot by a director already set on leaving the business. Just in case that line of dialogue up there-which is a direct quote of the pillow talk from this movie-wasn't a strong enough indicator of how awful Gigli is, here's another piece of info to solidify that framework: Martin Brest, the director, never made another film after Gigli.
