In recent years, an Internet celebrity who looks like Uncle Ying has become popular on the Internet, and Uncle Ying's classic Taoist IP has also been turned over again.
From just putting on makeup and posing a few actions on the short video platform every day, to starting to rub uncle Ying's heat to make movies, their behavior has gradually caused dissatisfaction among netizens. Of course, the main thing is that the quality of the film is too poor.
The word "Tribute to Uncle Ying" has instantly become a hot topic of reference in major zombie movies, and after you have actually seen it, you will find that this is a "deception" in itself. The plot is boring, time is made up, there are no highlights, and the most infuriating thing is that it does not look like Uncle Ying.
If Qian Xiaohao is using the name of Uncle Ying to drain his own films, then some other movies, such as "The Return of Uncle Nine 1, 2, 3", are directly engaged in Uncle Ying's imitation show. There is no problem with the costume, no problem with the hairstyle, no problem with the beard, and there is no problem with the configuration of the two apprentices, but the face is not like it at all.
In 2016, a "The Last Heavenly Master of Mr. Yin and Yang" starring Qian Xiaohao and Lou Nanguang was released, Qian Xiaohao made a zombie movie that everyone is still looking forward to, in line with the idea of "the master died and the apprentice took over", many viewers accepted this approach, but there are still many netizens who said that this is basically fried cold rice.
The plot of the movie "Mr. Yin and Yang's Last Heavenly Master" also talks about the past, although there are many zombie movies now, but it always feels like there is no taste of the past. However, there is an actor's zombie film that can still be seen, he is Peng Yuyu.
Peng Yuyu's "Xiangyun Temple" is relatively good in terms of story and film atmosphere, and is more inclined to the style of zombie films in the past. A series of movies, including "Mr. Yin and Yang", "Late Night Bookstore", and "Xiangyun Temple", are all worth watching.
If you do the math, it's been 24 years since Uncle Ying left us. In fact, for Qian Xiaohao's return, whether he is thinking of making money or paying tribute to Uncle Ying, I think as long as he shoots well, we will support it. If it's the same kind of movie as the one that rubs the current, it's better not to make it. Next, let's review Uncle Ying's past!
On December 27, 1952, Lam was born in a poor family in Hong Kong, and the family made a living by helping their parents to help people with food, because the family conditions were so poor, Lim Zhengying dropped out of school after two years of studying at Lutheran Church Primary School.
In 1963, at the age of 11, Lin Zhengying joined the Spring and Autumn Drama Academy in Hong Kong and studied under the famous Peking opera artist Pink Chrysanthemum. Like Qixiaofu's class, most of these students later entered the Hong Kong film industry, and the same brothers who were in the film industry with Lin Zhengying included: Qian Yuesheng, Dong Wei, Meng Hai, Zhong Fa, Hui Tianci, Chen Long, Zun Long, Luo Jiaying, etc.
Lin Zhengying's singing career did not last long, and after 6 years of introduction, Lin Zhengying entered the film circle. In 1969, at the age of 17, Lin Zhengying began working at shaw films as a dragon and tiger martial artist, and because of his thin stature, he often worked as a stand-in for some actresses, such as Zheng Peipei.
In 1971, Jiahe, who had only been established for one year, found 19-year-old Lin Zhengying and invited him to Jiahe as a martial arts instructor. Later, Bruce Lee returned to Hong Kong to shoot "Big Brother Tangshan", personally invited Lin Zhengying to serve as the deputy martial arts instructor of the film and played the role of Ah Ying in the film.
Later, Lin Zhengying became Bruce Lee's right and left arm, and because Lin Zhengying was good at targeting (that is, the party who was beaten in the movie). Later, when filming "Dragon Fight tiger fight", Bruce Lee was even more because Lin Zhengying did not refuse to start the camera, until Lin Zhengying arrived.
After Bruce Lee's death, Lin Zhengying joined Hong Jinbao's Hongjia class and became a backbone figure, but the roles he played were some supporting roles. Until 1985, Liu Guanwei proposed to Hong Jinbao that he wanted to make a movie, and Hong Jinbao said yes! So the wave of Hong Kong zombie films officially began.
Starring Lin Zhengying, Qian Xiaohao and Hui Guanying, "Mr. Zombie" first caused a sensation in Taipei, and then grossed more than HK$20 million in 28 days of release in Hong Kong, and Lin Zhengying was also nominated for the Best Supporting Actor at the 5th Hong Kong Film Awards.
In 1986, Lin Zhengying starred in the zombie film "Zombie Family" again, and the film also achieved good results in Japan. In 1987, taking advantage of the limelight, a "Mr. Phantom" came out, and these movies are still classics in the classics to this day.
However, there is always competition in the market, and once this style is on fire, the follow-up will come immediately. At this time, Lin Zhengying added the elements of Western vampires to the zombie film, that is, the movie "One Eyebrow Road Man", which received a great response once it was broadcast, thus opening up the idea of Hong Kong filmmakers re-examining local zombie movies.
In 1990, the more modern "Ghost Exorcism Police" was released, and this film is more about the attitude of everyone after the supernatural event in a society that advocates science. Although there is no Daoist robe, the ups and downs of the plot are still very exciting.
In 1991, "African Monk" was filmed, this movie is actually based on funny, I remember seeing a native in foreign movies before, and in this movie also appeared. And Stephen Chow and Wu Mengda are also involved in the film, mainly in the voiceover part.
In 1992, Lin Zhengying partnered with Qian Xiaohao and Xu Guanying again to shoot "Mr. New Zombie", but in the following days, because the market competition was too serious, Lin Zhengying's film path also began to show a downward trend.
I remember that Uncle Ying also made a "Music Zombie", and "Zombie Supreme", which is very exciting. In 1995, Lin Zhengying began to shoot the zombie film "Zombie Road Chief" in the form of a TV series, which I have watched several episodes, and I feel that the excitement cannot catch up with the movie, that is, a zombie king, how to fight can not die, has been chasing.
In 1995, Lin Zhengying met Yuan Qiongdan when filming "Zombie Road Chief", and the two soon fell in love. In 1996, Yuan Qiongdan deliberately moved from Happy Valley to Sai Kung to live with Lin Zhengying, but it was not long before Lin Zhengying was diagnosed with liver cancer, so he decided to break up with Yuan Qiongdan.
It was not until Lin Zhengying's death in 1997 that Yuan Qiongdan did not know that he had liver cancer, and fate made a joke on the two of them, and when he came out of the funeral, Yang Shaohong, Qian Yuesheng, Ng Ming Hoi, Lam King Chu, Chen Huiyi, Zhong Fa, Hong Jinbao, Chen Yongkang, Qian Jiale, and Wu Ma 10 people helped him.
Lin Zhengying was only 45 years old when he died, if he did not have liver cancer, he could still shoot more wonderful works, but unfortunately many times it is so unfair. Nowadays, Uncle Ying's heat has been rubbed and rubbed, no matter what is filmed, but it must be under the premise that the quality can be guaranteed, rather than shooting some works of time.
If you just add the image and name of an uncle and think of selling money, then this is deception, which is simply to "circle money". Needless to say, I'm going to review Uncle Ying's wonderful zombie movie again.
