A low-budget film crew gets sucked into a studio known as “Ghostwood.” Every month, they have to take a gig and enter a different eerie world. But each person is also granted a unique talent upon entering, commonly known as “five-cent special effects.” These powers may be low-level by the studio’s standards, but they’re cheap and effective, giving newcomers a sense of security and some much-needed support.
The Five-Cent Effects team has both handsome men and beautiful women. Some play the pig to eat the tiger, while others put on airs and show off. But once they arrive in Ghostwood, they discover that experts are everywhere, beauties are practically sold wholesale, and even celebrities have to come out every month to perform for a living, without selling their bodies or anything like that.
The mission sets are also full of all kinds of bizarre props. Each person can carry at most seven, ranging from basic occupational and support props to high-end rule-based and domain props.
But all props need to be fed. They feed on human emotions and feelings, and the stronger people become, the more they tend to lose their humanity. Ghostwood isn’t a place that creates entertainment: it’s an abyss that manufactures negative emotions.
The unchanging protagonist and his ever-changing companions struggle to survive in these eerie sets, pursue power, and cherish the good in human nature. At the same time, they search for a way home.
This point of view description is quite uncomfortable. Even if there are multiple protagonists, one of the protagonists must be the main perspective. You cannot switch back and forth so frequently, otherwise you will feel dizzy while watching. Moreover, there cannot be too many protagonists. If appropriate, about 3 will be enough.
That's not bad.
Worth a look!!!
