With this feeling in mind, I habitually downloaded this film, and I also habitually watched it. From the very beginning, this film gave me a different feeling than before. The story started with countless life clips, and introduced several protagonists of the film one by one. They are basically handsome men, and they are very disappointed. This kind of technique is very common in literary and drama films, but it is still relatively rare in horror films.
Perhaps it was because of such an unexpected start that I was intrigued. After that, the progress of the story still fell into a cliché. Several men came to the deserted village town, and there were countless zombies waiting for them.
Unlike similar films, there are only female zombies in this film. In other words, this mutant virus can only be infected by women. And the shape of the female zombie in this film is amazing! Wedding axe girl, scissors girl, dentist girl, big sister-in-law who likes to eat fingers, royal sister with giant sword, grandma with crutches, eldest sister with street signs, all zombies are not only not repeated, but also very distinctive and very It has the taste of enemy characters in the game "Silent Hill". And with their own unique shapes, the character of each zombie is also highlighted, which has never been seen in mass-produced zombies in other similar films.
The second is that although Ben Ge is called a horror film, it is actually a dark humor film. The whole film is full of dark humor and dialogue, and I laughed almost from beginning to end. Although the protagonists are besieged by zombies, they do not worry the audience at all, because whenever disaster strikes, they will always escape to heaven in a dramatic way. I originally thought this would be a lighthearted black comedy without dead people, but at the end of the movie, there was a batch of dead people without warning. Compared with the previous plots that repeatedly avoided danger, it can be said to be a contrast.
Each of the protagonists of this film is somewhat frustrated in real life, and their attitudes towards women are also different. These differences are closely related to the type of zombies encountered in this film and the development of the plot. Even at the end of the story, everyone's destination seems to be a response to their outlook on life and attitude towards women.
In addition, although a lot of people died at the end of the film, it still ended in an open-ended atmosphere in a relaxed atmosphere. There is no BOSS battle of the same kind of film, no behind-the-scenes conspiracy theories of the same kind of film, and no suspenseful ending where a zombie emerges out of nowhere to make a sequel after escaping.
To sum up, although the story of this film is a bit cliché, it has a good performance in terms of character, modeling, camera usage, music, story development and the thinking behind the story. Not surprisingly, this is probably the best horror movie I've seen this year, bar none.
