Ví dụ
If there’s an author who will make the hair stand up on the back of your neck, it’s Catherine Coulter. Read on for the sneak peek of her new thriller, Paradox, where a frightening confrontation (cuộc đối đầu, chạm trán) with an intruder (kẻ đột nhập) sets everyone on edge.
“Rodeo is what rodeo is. Rodeo no matter what, the only time we’re gonna shut it down is if there’s lightning that’s close enough to make the hair stand up on the back of your neck or a tornado, and I’ve seen ‘em ride bulls through a tornado before in South Dakota.” -- Leon Kristianson, Roughrider Commission
So begins a story that will bring her together with Harvey, owner of the house she’s renting for the weekend. Director and writer Richard Bates, Jr. who is no stranger to horror flicks with the likes of Excision, Trash Fire and Suburban Gothic, moves his film along at a nice clip introducing the main characters and showing their personal peculiarities (nét riêng). He then puts everything in place before diving into a devilishly (vô cùng) gory flick that should make the hair stand up on the back of your neck. It’s a “killer” of a film.
