The "Harry Potter" series of movies that is popular all over the world can be said to be known to everyone!
In addition to brilliant magic , mysterious spells and magical animals .
Harry Potter 's study life and adventure stories at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry have also become a topic we are talking about.
However, Hogwarts is not the only school that lives in seclusion and cultivates special skills. Sister Kill has also recently found a school in San Francisco - the Academy of Death Arts.
This school, which specializes in the art of assassination, is darker and more violent than Hogwarts.
If Hogwarts is an ideal country for children, then the Academy of Death Arts is an asura field for adults.
Here, if you pass notes in class, you will be beaten by the teacher with "nose and blood".
The daily lessons are to learn the skills and knowledge of various assassinations.
The homework assigned is to kill a damned person.
All the students, the combat value is on the table.
One person can take on two or three heavily armed policemen, still without a weapon in hand.
Such an excellent college is naturally full of talents.
Class of 1957 Lee Harvey Oswald assassinated John F. Kennedy.
The goal of this term is to assassinate President Reagan .
Almost all the classmates in the academy are descendants of crime families. There are many gangs here, including Japanese underworld, fascist Nazis, Los Angeles gangsters, the second generation of black police officers from CIA or FBI...
There is no classmate affection here, and it is possible to be killed by classmates at any time under the nose of the teacher.
Such a cruel and cold-blooded class without a trace of humanity is—
"Killer Class"
When it comes to this manga adaptation of the American drama, it has a lot of background.
It is written by Rick Remender , the original "Killer Class" comic and "Venom" comics screenwriter, and is executive produced and produced by the "Avengers 3" directors Russo Brothers (they are fans of the original comics).
The cast is not to be outdone.
Pharaoh in "Doctor Strange", Benjamin Wadsworth in "Teen Wolf", Chen Donglan in "X-Men: Apocalypse"...
As soon as the first episode was released, IMBD scored a high score of 8.3 .
San Francisco in the 1980s.
At this time, the society was unrest, and street crime was rampant.
Teenage Marcus is wanted by police for setting fire to an orphanage.
Master Lin , the principal of the assassination academy, saw its potential, rescued him, and brought him to the academy.
However, on the first day of class, Marcus offended Chico, the boss of the Soto Brotherhood, and was given a death challenge...
Although only one episode has been released so far, the image of the protagonist Marcus is very full.
He is an orphan who longs for the love of others in his heart. When he felt lost and helpless and wanted to commit suicide at one point, a kiss from Saya made him change his mind and rekindled hope for life.
He was also jealous.
When he saw Chico, the leader of the Soto Brotherhood, bullying Maria, he stepped forward and confronted the Academy's biggest gang as a new rookie, with no regard for the retaliation that would follow.
Contrary to Willie, who pretends to be the boss of the gang who can't hold a gun, Marcus, who appears to be cowardly, is actually a decisive person.
When Willie failed to perform his mission and was about to be killed, Marcus attacked the murderer from behind, tortured him, and burned his body.
Looking at this Ma Liu'er's operation, Sister Sha estimates that this is another anti-hero who will go down the road of blackening.
In addition, the first episode also left a lot of doubts that tantalize the appetite.
for example:
Marcus is wanted by the whole city for setting fire to an orphanage, but through his confession, he will find out that there is another secret behind his arson. What happened at that time?
There are so many street criminals, why did Master Lin only like Marcus?
And will he be able to escape the assassination of the Brotherhood of Soto?
Does the scene in this film between the real and the fantasy imply that there will be a brain-opening god in the follow-up?
This work, which combines action, blood, suspense, fantasy and many other elements, will undoubtedly become a dark horse of American dramas in 2019.
Many people who have seen it like to call it the dark version of "Harry Potter"!
After killing sister three times in a row, I decided to award the first surprise work of the year to this American drama with a strong dark style.
Friends who like this kind of tone, must not miss it~
