There are many differences between this film and the old zombie films. For example, the plot of this film is serious, and there are not so many funny contents. There are only a few swear words in Cantonese that can be considered funny. Moreover, the zombies in this film combine various elements such as Japanese female ghosts, Chinese zombies, and Western zombies. The story is probably that Qian Xiaohao returned to the house, where he met A You, Aunt Mei and others, and also encountered a ghost ghost and a zombie incarnated by Uncle Dong, and joined others to fight with them. fight. The ending is open-ended, you can do whatever you want. I feel a little weird, but it's not unconventional.
The elements that a zombie film should have are reflected in this film, red thread, spells, Taoist priests in yellow robes, silver swords, martial arts, formulas... When the zombies jumped out with their hands raised, I almost jumped with excitement! However, doing too many westernized things for the overseas market is too confusing, not to mention that the story is not well told. It would be nice if there were more zombie elements in the local area. The music is also very praised, especially the song "Ghost Bride", I was in a state as soon as it came out, and the soundtrack also did its job of setting off the atmosphere, which made people break out in a cold sweat. The visual effect is the biggest advantage of the film. It is gorgeous and can be compared with Hollywood blockbusters. I have to admire director Mak Junlong's imagination and courage once again.
But such a sincere film may not actually bring any substantive changes to Hong Kong films and zombie films. Zombie films will still decline, Hong Kong films will still go downhill, but at least some people are working hard, this is not enough What?
