If you look at their works in chronological order, you must be able to recognize the shadows of "Zombie Shaun" and "Blood Detective" in the film at a glance, and even from a certain point of view, this film is these two films The combination of "Zombie Shaun" and "Blood Detective" is the representative work of this weird trio. If there is really any tribute, these three people should be able to afford it. But it seems to be something else to myself.
This film also continues the story mode of the small characters in the previous two works who encounter big troubles. Before it was the attack of zombies and violent Weng Po, this time it was blue blood aliens. To be honest, if you have seen the famous British drama "Doctor Who", the setting of aliens in this film will also feel a little familiar. Compared with the previous two films, this film also has many of the same elements, such as the bar scene. In "Shaun of Zombies", the bar is the most ideal and perfect sanctuary for the protagonist when the zombies are besieged; in "Blood Detective", it is the beginning of the protagonist's challenge to the hidden forces; and in this work, a trip to the bar Pretty much the main line of the movie. This also shows how ingrained the pub culture is in the blood of the British.
Then there is the friendship between men, whether they are tired of being together all the time, or they meet once again, or they meet again after a long absence like this film, brotherhood is always the core element in their films, even more important than love. . Could it be that in the eyes of the main creator, for otaku, love is more reliable than love? In any case, the somewhat hilarious brotherhood in their films is always sincere, reliable, and touching, and no matter how sinister the environment is, at least one person will cover for him, which is a recurring scene in all three of their films. Old-fashioned, right? But always heartwarming.
The reason why I say they're paying homage to themselves now is another thing, because I found online that this movie, along with Shaun of Zombies and Bloody Detective, makes up a trilogy series called "Blood" And the Ice Cream Trilogy", then I really hope they do a better trilogy than the third part of the series that pays homage to the first two, there's just too many stories for them to tell, and I hope they can continue "Blood and Ice Cream", the third part is not good enough, so please come to the fourth and fifth part!
