Lam Ching-ying, a legend in Hong Kong cinema and the founder of zombie films, has brought us countless surprises and laughter. Every time I chat with my friends of the same age, I always feel refreshed and emotional. His straight eyebrows (in the movie, of course, but it seems that Lin Zhengying has no eyebrows?), his mustache (that's also the make-up of the movie, but it has become a kind of symbol of Lin Zhengying) and his tall and straight body His posture was like a firefly in the dark, deeply betrayed him. The Taoist robe, the Taoist hat and the mahogany sword represent the attire of almost all zombie movies in the future. His unsmiling humour, his subtle shyness, and his down-to-earth skills all touched me deeply. Lin Zhengying's unique kung fu + comedy + horror model breaks the fixed model of traditional horror movies, making people frightened and laughing instantly. This feeling of tension and relaxation is very enjoyable to watch. It is a pity that the late bloomer Lin Zhengying died young (Lin Zhengying, who was preparing for "Zombie Daoist 3", suddenly left us), but the classics and memories he left us are eternal. The younger brother is a big fan of Lin Zhengying. Every time Lin Zhengying's name appears on the cast list, there will be an inexplicable urge to watch it, whether it is the protagonist or the supporting role. Below, I will briefly review the classic works of Master Lin Zhengying. The most familiar to everyone is "Mr. Zombie" directed by Liu Guanwei. This movie caused a huge response in Hong Kong at the time. Although various props and moves of catching ghosts and fighting zombies are mysterious, they are very down-to-earth, and the audience is very popular, and the box office has reached more than 20 million (it still seems to be the highest in Hong Kong horror movies. box office!). The film is first-class in terms of plot, actors, action, and soundtrack. Lin Zhengying's image of Maoshan Road Chief is the most popular. Later, one master, two apprentices, and Qing Dynasty zombies became a model for zombie movies. In addition to zombies, the film also brought out a classic female ghost Wang Xiaofeng (this will be discussed later). Of course the "Mr. Zombie" series is the most famous. The fifth film was once filmed (the most classic first 3 films were all in cooperation with Liu Guanwei), namely: "Mr. Zombie", "Mr. Zombie 2: Zombie Family", "Mr. Zombie 3: Mr. Ghost", "Mr. Mr. Zombie 4: Uncle Zombie (explain here, this is not starring Lin Zhengying, and it is not clear why it is called the fourth, but this film has Chen You and Wu Ma, which is very interesting) and "Mr. Zombie 5" : Exorcism Police. As a dragon and tiger martial artist, Lin Zhengying actually played a lot of tricks and supporting roles before he received the zombie movie, and then he waited for an opportunity to accumulate a lot of money, and it has been out of control since then. In the early years, there were extras who had done great Bruce Lee, and they could be considered as the predecessors of Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung. Everyone gave him the title "Ninth Uncle" (it seems to be the reason why many films played by Lin Zhengying are called Jiu Shu, so I will call him Jiu Shu below). The more famous one in the early days was "The Prodigal Boy" with Yuan Biao and Hong Jinbao. In 1982's "Scaring People" Jiu Shu had already been exposed to ghost movies. At that time, the master played by Jiu Shu was too old, and the focus was also on Hong Jinbao. Returning to the field of zombie films, the general era happened in the period of the Republic of China, so it is not surprising that the Qing Dynasty zombies. In "Mr. Zombie", Uncle Ninth's two apprentices: one is Qian Xiaohao, tall, handsome and rich, handsome, good in kung fu, likes to be clever, and his kung fu is not even worse than his master; the other is Xu Guanying, diaosi, poor and inferior in kung fu , his role is mainly responsible for the funny part (intimate tips: Liu Zhenwei's guidance, Xu Guanying and Zhang Xueyou's "Ghost Academy" and "Ghost Badge" are quite good). A more serious master sometimes tells some cold jokes, and the two apprentices form an iron triangle with a peculiar aura. The two of them collaborated with Lin Zhengying on several films, and the quality is all at the top. It is worth mentioning that Huang Bingyao, the screenwriter of "Mr. Zombie", is known as a Hong Kong ghost screenwriter. Another attractive factor of the film is the props, remember paper, pen, ink, knife, sword (yellow paper, red pen, black ink, real sword, wooden sword)? Remember the yellow talisman, the peach wood sword, and the glutinous rice to drive away zombies? Remember that zombie hand slowly reaching out of the coffin? Of course, you will not forget to temporarily stop breathing. Later, in "Mr. New Zombie", Wu Junru, the junior sister of the ninth uncle, appeared, and they were dealing with a female ghost possessed by an evil spirit. There were many jokes: on the one hand, the senior brother didn't like the junior sister, but he needed the help of the junior sister. He was embarrassed to say it. On the other hand, Fa Chun's junior sister did everything she could to seduce the senior brother (Wu Junru, everyone knows, just think about how "cool" the nine uncles are!), the two disciples who did not learn countless did not help. When he was busy, he went to the next village and provoked a group of zombies to come back. Female ghosts fought zombies. However, "Mr. New Zombie" after 7 years is not as good as the previous one in all aspects. "Zombie Family" in 1986 brought the background to the modern era, and Jiu Shu and Yuan Biao also exchanged roles (refer to "Prodigal Boy" for details), and became the absolute protagonists. The background of this film is set in the modern era. , of course still the Qing Dynasty zombies. What is still fresh in my memory is the chase scene between Lou Nanguang and the zombies. Yuan Biao and Jiu Shu have all kinds of battles of wits and courage with the zombie couple in the secret room, which is funny and exciting, and cute little zombies appear for the first time. "Zombie Family" follows Li Saifeng, the heroine of "Mr. Zombie", the pure goddess at that time! In addition, there is a line where the ninth uncle ridiculed himself to share with you: my master, Sammo Hung, went into the underworld to stir up ghosts and ghosts in the early years, and now he returns to the human world to practice scaring people. (As for why the master was Sammo Hung, it was because Sammo Hung founded Baohe Films at that time. Most of Lam Ching Ying's films were produced and distributed by Sammo Hung, and of course he was also responsible for the creation.) Yes, that's right, Ninth Uncle appeared in the movie under his real name. in, haha. In 1987's "Mr. Phantom", it was no longer the zombies who came out and jumped (don't eat the old, change is the kingly way), replaced by witches, there is a wonderful witch fight at the beginning of the movie, there is no lack of joy , the apprentices include Lou Nanguang (a frequent guest of ghost horse comedy films, Hong Kong film fans know it) and Lu Fang, the laughing fruit has been reduced a lot, but with the ninth uncle here, everything else is not important (haha), in the film various The Taoist technique of fighting ghosts and catching monsters is eye-opening. In 1988, Uncle Jiu released a "Shame and Shame", which was relatively sluggish and not known to the majority of movie fans. Although the quality was mediocre, it added Zou Zhaolong (every action movie fan knows it!) This cardiotonic is quite good. Watch. The 1989 "One Eyebrow Taoist" is a more meaningful one. Jiu Shuchu directed the tube and achieved good results. As far as the plot is concerned, Uncle Ninth has used his brains. In the years when zombies have been rampant, the elements of Western vampires were added for the first time. Maoshan Taoist priests encountered Christian nuns, cultural differences between the East and the West, traditional Taoism VS Western vampires, are all highlights. . In 1990, Uncle Jiu released "The Exorcist Police", "Music Zombie" and "Ghost Bite the Ghost" in one breath. The "Exorcist Police" directed by the famous martial arts instructor Dong Wei is more focused on action and tells the story of retirement. The long-awaited ninth uncle has made a comeback after encountering a strange incident, and solved the drug case in one fell swoop. The only novelty of "Music Zombie" is that the apprentice has been replaced by a male and female match, and the ninth uncle pretending to be a zombie pee is indeed a pee point. "Ghost Bite Ghost" with Liu Guanwei once again is worth watching, and the Maoshan witchcraft chaos at the end is very powerful. The 1991 "Zombie Supreme" was actually directed by Liu Weiqiang! The movie inherits the successful routine of "Mr. Zombie", there are many ghosts and zombies, handsome and rich, Xiaohao needless to say, stunning female ghost Wu Jiali secretly loves Jiu Shu, Jiu Shu is cute and has wood! The powerful senior brother Liu Xun slaughtered the Quartet, and came to a gathering of Taoist priests in Maoshan to drive away zombies. At the same time, "Zombie Corps" directed by Johnnie To is a follow-up work, playing the zombies of the grandfather's generation, not much new, but fortunately it is still funny. At that time, there was also a fat man (not Sammo Hung) who competed with Lin Zhengying in strength. This gentleman's "Ghost Hunting and Family Fun" series was also a leader in zombie films. That's right, it's the fat cat Zheng Zeshi. In the same year, "Human Ghosts and Gods", which they joined forces with each other, focused on comedy, one fat and one thin, one strong and one weak. Competing for women and being jealous is very funny, but it weakens the elements of action and horror. (Gigi Lai is beautiful!). In the later period, Lin Zhengying rarely had good works. It can be said that zombie films have reached the point where they are bad, so "The Exorcist" is not bad. This film, directed by Wu Ma, is a hodgepodge of female ghosts, zombies, and vampires. And things like "African Monk" don't know what to say, "Ghost Cadre" talks about the Cultural Revolution, "Ghost Change" is a bit restricted (you know!), and "Ghost Tour Group" has an ambiguous relationship with Wu Junru (Why again!), "Monster City" with naked back Chen Yalun, "Ghost Fighting Ghosts: The Golden Taoist" becomes the background and so on will not be elaborated one by one. The success of the film has prepared and paved the way for Lin Zhengying to switch to TV series. The series "Zombie Taoist" has already been loved by the audience. It is worth mentioning that the theme song "The End of the World" of the two dramas has also been released with the plot. There are a lot of changes, the first part is more spooky, the second part is more rock-and-roll, it's too happy. The death of Ninth Uncle was a bolt from the blue for the Hong Kong film industry. No matter how many imitators there are later (Liu Jiahui is a good "Shaolin Zombie"), 2002's "The Age of Zombies" is only the end of the shot, and the results are not the same. language. After the 1990s, zombie films have basically disappeared, and horror films have become something that we can only hope for and out of reach.

In 2013, "Zombie", directed by a die-hard fan actor and a promising young man of the second generation, Mak Junlong, and supervised by Shimizu Tsong, is the best Hong Kong zombie film after the new millennium, with a strong Japanese horror film style and dazzling The cool MV-style photography has injected new blood into the zombie film. It is a sincere tribute. Seeing the subtitles at the end of the film: Lin Zhengying and Xu Guanying are so beautiful, I can't help crying! Finally, I would like to sincerely wish you: Uncle Jiu, go all the way! Heaven is not caught by ghosts, and there are no zombies. It should be quite lonely! (It seems that going to hell is more playful! Haha) (The text is rough, everyone understands!)

The text is not enough, the pictures are collected, some Lin Zhengying and zombie figures collected, everyone tastes!
