A hodgepodge of weird elements of Classic as fuck
When I was looking for a movie, I accidentally found this film, "Big Trouble in Little China" in 1986, which was translated in Chinese as "Demons in Chinatown", directed by John Carpenter, an American B-level film master.
The story is simple: Wang’s fiancée was taken away. He and his gambler Jack tracked down the legendary villain David Lo Pan (it is said to be Luban)’s lair. Later, he was helped by a hidden master. In the end, the evil did not suppress the righteousness, the hero....

This is China in Carpenter’s eyes
In the eyes of Hollywood filmmakers, Hong Kong films have a strong CULT color without exception. Even the best big productions are full of B-grade flavor in their eyes. As a gay movie, Carpenter must have been attracted by the charm of Hong Kong movies to make this wonderful movie. David Bodwell once said that Hong Kong movies are "all overwhelmed, all crazy", but he didn't expect it to be B The "Monsters in Chinatown" directed by the leading filmmaker is even more maddening than the...

"Gobs Raid in Chinatown"-Uncle Carpenter teaches you to be an ACT
The first thing I heard of Uncle Carpenter was not actually this work, but the "Weird Shape" (82 edition), which was almost as famous as the alien but sighed for its inability to succeed. Although the plot is a little slow (in fact, the films of that era are relatively rhythmic), but its vigorous prop design and CULT's bursting heterogeneous combination will bring a lot of influence to later generations. If I remember correctly, "Dead Space" should be one of the works that is more...

Thoughts from the Spring Festival Gala
The sketch of the Spring Festival Gala reminded me of the movie recommended to me by an American roommate when I first arrived at school. At that time, she was very excited to tell me that this was my favorite movie about China! Let's watch it together! As a result, I was embarrassed throughout the whole journey. A 2,000-year-old zombie left many ancient tombs in China and went to California’s Chinatown to dig a hole. The Chinese husband had to save his Chinese wife by pulling a white...

Not in the middle of the world, a curious product
What is unacceptable is why the Chinese fiancée of the second male king was played by a foreign girl. The Chinese face was so unwelcome in Hollywood back then.
The appearance of the big villain zombie is very Fu Manchu, Fu Manchu represents the yellow peril, the Westerners vilify the Chinese. Charlie Chen is a positive image, a detective. Although the image is not handsome enough, Hollywood should co-produce Charlie Chen's film with the mainland.
Jackie Chan's "A Good Man"...

Wang Chi: That's why the bottle didn't slice. My mind and my spirit are goin' north and south.
Eddie: Well sure it was a war. And anybody that showed up was gonna join Lem Lee in the Hell of Being Cut to Pieces.
Jack Burton: Hell of being what?
Eddie: Chinese have a lot of Hells.
Uncle Chu: What the hell is Gracie Law doing here?
Jack Burton: She can't get enough of me.
Gracie: Hah! He wishes.
