Released in 1985, Mr. Zombie is undoubtedly the representative work of Hong Kong's fantasy comedy. After the millennium, the mainland's censorship system, Hollywood's vampire films and South Korea's zombie films such as Train to Busan, Hong Kong's local fantasy comedy. It has long since faded away. Re-watching Mr. Zombie, except for the red thread glutinous rice is still there today, and the feelings of Lin Zhengying in the world are not seen. This film is still the last well-made genre film, it combines action, thriller and comedy, and truly ushered in a new era of Hong Kong zombie movies. When it comes to Mr. Zombie, the most popular is the golden combination of the three masters, Lin Zhengying, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai. The fact that these three people can get together can be regarded as a chance. As one of the most dynamic satellite companies of "Golden Harvest", "Baohe" hosted by Sammo Hung is the platform for this cooperation. Lin Zhengying has always been regarded as one of the late bloomers in the Hong Kong film industry. The 19-year-old Lin Zhengying participated in Bruce Lee's first film "Big Brother Tangshan" and was Bruce Lee's most trusted martial artist. It was not until Mr. Zombie that he really ushered in his own. In the era of , "Mr. Zombie" has also become a synonym for Lin Zhengying. The ninth uncle wears a Taoist hat, a yellow robe, and holds a mahogany sword. It is still an indelible classic image in the hearts of fans to this day. Lin Zhengying's ninth uncle is upright and an out-and-out "guardian madman". This has to talk about two "pit masters" Qiusheng and Wencai. The actor Qian Xiaohao of Qiusheng is Zhang Che's close disciple. At that time, he had already appeared in many martial arts films directed by Zhang Che. In 1985, Shaw Brothers began to reduce production. Taking this opportunity, the three-legged Shaw Brothers, Xinyicheng and Jiahe Middle The two giants have cooperated. Shaw Brothers loaned out its own artistes and achieved the master-disciple relationship between Lin, Qian and Xu. Just imagine if there is no Qiusheng played by Qian Xiaohao, who can let the infatuated female ghost played by Wang Xiaofeng find her lover in the music of "Her vision, her vision, like the stars shine"? If there is no light-handed, youthful and lovely Qiusheng, who would use a peach wood sword to pick off the robes of the female ghost to add some romantic flavors to this fantasy film? Although Qiusheng is not serious and loves to play, but Qiusheng at the critical moment is very reliable. Qian Xiaohao and Lin Zhengying contributed excellent action scenes in the film. I have seen Mr. Qian Xiaohao's interview, talking about Mr. Zombie's shooting as many as 140 groups, which lasted as long as one year. This was an extremely rare event for the Hong Kong film industry at that time. At that time, the Hong Kong film industry copied the successful experience in batches, and the directors mostly chose martial arts films and romantic films. The upper management of Jiahe was not optimistic about the film, and there were financial overruns in the production. In the end, the box office of the film was as high as more than 20 million. As a subcultural film, this kind of box office was a great success. How much hard work did the main creator behind it? With this film, Qian Xiaohao became a popular niche student, and then he took on the roles of Nevernight, Yuan Zhenxia and Wesley. Although the literary talent played by Xu Guanying is not good-looking, and does not have the good skills of Lin and Qian, but Xu Guanwen, Xu Guanjie and Xu Guanying starring three brothers "Ghost Horse Double Star" let Xu's film industry gain a firm foothold. Xu Guanying's "unlucky" comedy became the representative of Hong Kong comedy films in the early 1980s. Who doesn't want to laugh at "unlucky" Wencai? When it comes to the play itself, the film has contributed a lot of laughs that still seem outdated today. The significance of classics is not that after the big waves wash the sand, no matter when you look at it again, there will always be something worth recalling. At the end of the single-line film, Lin Zhengying and Qian Xiaohao fight against zombies, or encounter zombies and "stop breathing temporarily", all of which make us cherish the memory of Hong Kong movies. That is a kind of silent beauty, which is different from the strictness of Hollywood scripts. Hong Kong movies in the 1980s never adhered to the genre framework, and this is also the most charming thing about Hong Kong movies, which used to be Eastern Hollywood.
