According to the story, it originated in Eastern Europe in the 19th century. It is said that anti-Semitic radicals at that time often ambush near the church and ambush Jewish brides who come to marry. When the poor people are killed, according to the Jewish custom at that time, the bride must be dressed in clothes. Buried, they rest in the ground with their beautiful wedding dresses. The protagonist of the story, "The Zombie Bride", is such a tragic bride, who fell asleep before she could get the promise of the unscrupulous person. And the hero of the story, Victor, comes from a market family. All his artistic temperament seems to be very different from his upstart parents who dreamed of marrying aristocrats! His parents wanted to arrange for him to marry Victoria, a descendant of a run-down aristocrat, hoping to use this marriage to improve the family's social status. Victor accepted his parents' arrangement. Our lovely male protagonist Victor performed affectionately and romantically in front of the piano at Victoria's house, and immediately won the love of the kind-hearted Victoria. people. The wedding rehearsal process was full of mistakes, and our groom, Victor, was nervous and overwhelmed. (Could this be the so-called fear of marriage) Victor rehearsed his marriage vows depressedly, and unknowingly walked into the forest. Victor knelt on the ground and put the engagement ring on the picked up On a dead branch, imagine Victoria answering him. But who knew that after shaking like an earthquake, a zombie bride in a wedding dress crawled out of the open soil (reminds me of the undead brought back by the crow), and the branch with the ring was still her rotten arm. Ting Yuli (perhaps the word is not appropriate. Hehe) stood in front of Victor and said charmingly: "You can kiss your bride..."
So far, the rhythm of the story has changed sharply. Burton has created an underground world with a back tradition. There are zombie skeletons, maggots and spiders, bars and squares, and ancient people who make magic. Of course, there are people who haven't seen the moonlight in N years. Zombie bride. She has been waiting for a husband since she was killed by her lover on her wedding night. Victor's appearance is a kind of redemption for her, although Victor has always been unable to understand how people from two worlds get married. However, nothing can be scripted in Burton's movie world, the underground world seems to be more dynamic than the above world, and the dead still "live" happily in the underground realm! On the other hand, the earthly world is full of darkness, deceit, jealousy, and greed, and people live like meat and machines. Burton gave dark colors to the above-ground world and more bright colors to the underground world. The tradition was subverted, but it did not feel the slightest artificiality. And our groom Victor seems to be moved by everything here. An ensemble in front of the piano seems to make the boundary between life and death gradually fade in his heart, marrying a zombie bride as his wife, so that her soul can be redeemed, The only thing Victor could do was give up his life.
The rhythm of the film changes again at the end, and the underground residents came to the church on the ground to witness the wedding of Victor and the zombie bride (a group of skeletons and zombies played in the "group of corpses"). A glass of wine will end a person's life and redeem a person's soul. Is this a tribute to a lost love? Or a compliment of an impending love? The appearance of the enemy makes the zombie bride have an epiphany. The lover who has passed away and the lover who is about to lose now, love seems to have become an unforgettable poison, and the stale breath is mixed with the faint fragrance of roses. What makes her love transcend the boundaries of life and death, let those who should stay stay, and those who should go go, and love cannot repeat the same mistakes.
"I love you, victor! But you are not mine."
Then we saw the dancing butterflies, which led us to start this wonderful story, and also took away the zombie bride at the end. She gave up her regret, Leave with a halo of love. Smart dance music, flying butterflies, white wedding dresses, under the dark sky, teenagers cling to dreamy love and those endless kindness!
