The Bridge Curse is a 2020 Taiwanese horror film directed by Lester Hsi and starring Ning Chang and Cheng Ko. The film revolves around a group of college students who become cursed after using a cursed bridge as a setting for their horror short film. The storyline follows Wendy and her friends, who are studying film production at university. They decide to make a horror film for their final project and choose a cursed bridge as the location. Legend has it that anyone who crosses the bridge at night will be haunted by vengeful spirits. Ignoring the warnings, Wendy and her friends continue with their project.
Mascot
Like the emblem, the mascot identifies a particular Olympic Games, but in a way more guaranteed to inspire affection. To choose the mascot for Barcelona, another closed competition was called, also with six designers: Fernando Amat, Angel Beaumont, Francesc Capdevila, Javier Mariscal, Francesc Petit and Pere Torrent "Peret". The same jury that had to choose the Olympic emblem examined the different proposals for the mascot, talked to the designers before they began to implement the projects and, on 29 January 1988, chose the one by Javier Mariscal. It consisted of an image of a human-looking dog, with open arms, sketched in a thick, uneven, black line and treated with a false perspective that gave it a flattened effect. Although it was an anthropomorphic animal, the quality of the drawing and the treatment of colour (flat colours with neither gradations nor textures and a tendency to shun the primaries) made it quite different from most earlier Olympic mascots, all of which had been clearly influenced by the Walt Disney school of cartoons.
In order to make the mascot more acceptable to the general public, Josep M. Trias used computers to soften the shape. Once the definitive image of the first official mascot had been achieved, it was baptised. The name chosen was "CoBi", which made an allusion to the initials of COOB'92 and was easy to remember and pronounce in most languages. The arbitrary combination of upper and lower case letters and the typography in which the name was presented (an alphabet created specially by Mariscal) helped to make "CoBi" more than just a name: it was a logotype.
The shape of the mascot was gradually modified until it reached its definitive appearance, by when it had already been introduced to the public as the second Olympic symbol of Barcelona'92.

The acting was wooden, the dialogue was cliché, and the scares were predictable. I kept waiting for something truly terrifying to happen, but it never did. Overall, it felt like a waste of time and money.
2. Sarah - 1 star - I cannot express how much I disliked "The Bridge Curse" film. It was filled with every horror movie trope you can think of - jump scares, creepy dolls, and a predictable plot. The characters were one-dimensional and I couldn't connect with any of them. The film was also incredibly slow-paced, making it hard to stay engaged. I was hoping for a thrilling and unique horror experience, but unfortunately, this film fell flat for me.
3. Michael - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "The Bridge Curse" film, but it turned out to be a major letdown. The story was confusing and lacked coherence, making it difficult to follow. The scares were cheap and relied heavily on loud noises and sudden movements, rather than building genuine tension. Additionally, the editing was choppy and disjointed. Overall, I found "The Bridge Curse" to be an underwhelming and forgettable horror film.
