Hello everyone.
Before writing this movie review, I knew that no one would read this, because the old account series was originally outdated and unpopular content, but I just hope that people who like to make up lessons and watch old movies like me can see and appreciate it. Movie.
I saw this theme and saw the trailer half a year ago, and I have been thinking about it. I finally found the resources to play the original film. After reading it, I was speechless. The mood is complicated, mainly because the wonderful ending makes you have to go through the plot in your mind again and fall into thinking. I think a movie that makes people think is successful.
No one can make a zombie movie so beautiful. In terms of my acceptance of watching all kinds of grudges, midnight bells, and watching chainsaws while eating, this zombie is not scary, nor bloody enough, and more importantly, it is necessary to appreciate this film with feelings, and salute. So I don't deserve it, I haven't seen a complete Lin Zhengying.
From the viewing point of view alone, due to the addition of Takashi Shimizu, the movie has a lot of Japanese horror. The twin female ghosts are powerful, the squatting little boy doesn't know what's going on, he feels like a kid raised by A Jiu, and A Jiu used the kid to lure the old man down the stairs and become a vessel for A Jiu to refine his corpse.
The name Ah Jiu is a tribute to Lin Zhengying. He is the key to the whole film. He has advanced lung cancer and would have died long ago if he hadn't used crooked ways to maintain his life. Before dying, you have to create zombies by yourself, no matter how many people you kill in the process. This kind of obsession is similar to Chen You's obsession, but the latter almost gave up, but the former went into trouble. Lin Zhengying is almost the spokesperson of Chinese zombie films, the grandfather of exorcising evil spirits and killing ghosts. And Ah Jiu here can be said to be the heir. I can't accept the days without zombies and without Lin Zhengying, then I will create zombies, you Chen You will be Lin Zhengying, I want you to repeat history!
It was so shocking when the zombies jumped out. In the end, Japanese female ghosts possessed Chinese zombies, which was a bit nondescript.
It has been a long time before the final battle is over, the climax of the movie has just begun, Chen You is still smoking a cigarette, Aunt Mei committed suicide, and the male protagonist is dying. Time goes back to the beginning.
Xiaohao died, he still committed suicide, he played himself. The same obsession, he chose to end this era with death, end the era of zombies (films), and bid farewell to the era of no zombies (films). This is what the director wants to tell us:
There have been no zombie movies since Zombies.
How tragic, how domineering, this is why after so many years, it seems that he has not surpassed his own work.
Looking back, everything seemed like a dream. Those Taoist priests, ghosts, zombies, those glutinous rice, red threads, wooden swords, those swords, lights, swords and shadows, all of them were all the scenes that appeared in Xiaohao's mind when he was about to die. His obsession would not let him die, but his obsession changed. It became this movie, the movie made him fulfill his long-cherished wish, and he left with peace of mind.
People say that scholars die for those who are confidants, but if all of your confidants go first, you will feel that only you are left in this world, and other living people are ordinary people who cannot understand you. Movie ridiculous? In fact, reality is absurd, so absurd that there are no zombies.
For Taoist priests, without zombies, glutinous rice can only be fried rice.
Thanks for reading.
