Chapter 948 -877 The Real Reason Not to Bully the Young Poor

On the set that was dressed like an underground restaurant, Sophia Stallone had donned her protective suit and lay down in the oversized plate prepared by the crew.

A blood-red sauce, made with a special tomato base, immediately flooded over her pristine body.

Two makeup artists approached and began to adorn Sophia’s body with various cosmetics, with red as the primary color.

All the props and makeup had only one purpose: to transform Sophia into a terrifying dish.

“Done!” The makeup artists reported loudly to the director.

Sophia couldn’t stay still for too long, and David Fincher called out, “Ready to start shooting.”

Martin, dressed in a shirt swiftly entered the set and approached the trolley that held Sophia.

The script supervisor came to clap the slate, and shooting began.

Martin pushed the trolley into the room, stopping beside the cage, displaying the gigantic plate that could accommodate a person, in front of Anya Taylor Joy.

The main course, made from the human body, was alarmingly shocking on camera.

Martin pulled a chair over, sat opposite Anya, took the cutlery in hand, and said with an evil smile, “Let me introduce you to our last supper, a soul-cooked dish!”

Just as he finished his line, he felt Sophia inside the plate move slightly.

“Cut!” David Fincher immediately called to stop the shooting, “Sophia, try to hold a bit longer.”

Sophia quickly responded, “Okay.”

The makeup artists hurried over to touch up her makeup, maintaining the gory and delicate appearance of the “dish.”

This was the scene where the lead character’s final persona, a fiendish artist, was born.

The soul-cooked feast created by the protagonist came from the design of David Fincher, Hollywood’s foremost dark director, who always managed to create something new out of the darkness and cruelty.

The scene took most of the afternoon to film, and Sophia was numb from lying in the plate.

As soon as David Fincher announced the end of filming, she couldn’t wait to climb out.

Martin quickly extended his hand to assist her out of the plate.

“I must be insane to have agreed to play such a scene.” Sophia, having known Martin for a few years, complained to him, “Smell me, I am completely covered in a disgusting tomato sauce scent.”

Martin handed her a towel and said, “It smells like you’ve been well marinated.”

Sophia flung her arms open, wanting to hug him: “Can’t you comfort me a little?”

Martin held her forehead back, not allowing her to come close, “Go shower and change, or you’ll really start to marinate.”

Sophia wiped the tomato sauce off her face with the towel and left the studio.

With today’s shooting finished, Martin didn’t head back to the makeup trailer but instead approached the director’s monitor to review the footage with David Fincher.

After viewing all the shots, David Fincher was very satisfied: “This scene, soul cooking, has an eerie artistic beauty amidst the bloody cruelty.”

“Where did you get the inspiration for this?” Martin asked curiously.

David Fincher said vaguely, “It’s not my original idea; I too have drawn inspiration from others.”

Martin didn’t recall seeing such scenes before, and they were completely different in style from Hannibal.

David Fincher countered, “Have you heard of the Church of Satan?”

Martin nodded, “I’ve heard of it.”

He remembered Louise mentioning that the Church of Satan also had a wide following in Hollywood and had even reached into Washington; it’s said that Laxton’s wife was one of its followers.

David Fincher continued, “This type of soul cooking is a sacrament of the Church of Satan. Of course, the main course is made to imitate a human body. Many in the circle have tasted it. Lady Gaga should be the most fervent follower of the Church of Satan in the entertainment industry. She not only took friends and family to taste soul cooking, but also walked the red carpet in a meat dress.”

Martin recalled, “Wasn’t that the raw meat dress she wore at the MTV Music Awards a few years ago?”

“It’s not a protest against vegetarians as some have said.” David Fincher, with a background in music video directing and closely connected to the pop music circle, simply said, “The meat dress originally is a form of performance art from the Church of Satan.”

Martin shook his head, “It feels evil. As someone who likes things upright, I can’t accept it at all.”

David Fincher disagreed with Martin, “I find it cultish.”

In America, where such cults are rampant, all sorts of demons and ghosts exist, and everyone has different beliefs; no one is forced to accept anything.

The two chatted about the Church of Satan and soul cooking for a while, then shifted to talking about cults.

David Fincher had some new ideas in this area: “I’ve signed a long-term cooperation agreement with Netflix. In the future, I’ll not only continue to produce ‘House of Cards’ sequels but also other works.”

Martin asked directly, “Do you have plans in place?”

“Yes, about cult-themed material.” David Fincher briefly introduced, “I plan to organize an animated series project, inviting a few directors to join, each to direct a short film.”

He directly invited Martin, “If you’re interested, you can try it as well.”

With Netflix and David Fincher teaming up, and now an animated series, Martin quickly remembered a cult animated series from his past life—Love, Death & Robots.

“A cult-themed animated series? Shorts?” When Martin saw David Fincher nod, he said promptly, “No problem, I’m very interested, I’ll give it a try.”

Touching on a topic that seemed to scratch David Fincher’s itch, he went on at length: “Although it is experimental, I’ve already spoken to Netflix, all participants can let their imaginations run wild, there are no restrictions beyond the duration of the piece, cultism, explicit content, and elements of blood, violence, eroticism, and horror are not a problem.”
