Mr. Zombie series
The "Mr. Zombie" horror comedy series created by the trio of "Uncle Nine" Lin Zhengying, "QiuSheng" Qian Xiaohao, and "Literary Talent" Xu Guanying is definitely a classic that must be talked about when it comes to Hong Kong horror films. There are many jokes in the film, but the appearance of zombies and ghosts is still the childhood shadow of many people. "Mr. Zombie" was released in 1985, creating a precedent for Hong Kong's "zombie" movies, Hong Kong and Taiwan have followed suit, shooting more than 100 zombie movies, and the series derived from "Mr. Zombie" includes "Zombie Family" in 1986, "Mr. Phantom" in 1987, "Zombie Supreme" in 1991, "New Mr. Zombie" in 1992, "Zombie" in 2013, etc. In addition to "Zombie", the "Ghost Bride" in "Mr. Zombie" is also quite classic, and even has its own theme song!

But let's be honest, how many years have you not seen the latest ghost film in Hong Kong?
Hong Kong horror movies have many uncle nine zombie series, "Fierce Ghost Out of the Cage", "Magic Fetus", "Magic Map", "Yin and Yang Road I am around you", "July 14 is not seen and not scattered", "Terror Hotline of the Big Head Monster Baby", "Rebirth of the Soul", "Ghost Kick", "Murder List", "Mountain Village Old Corpse" but since 1980, the real scary is probably this, I am lucky to be frightened by these movies when I was young, leaving a good memory. Horror movies are becoming more and more scarce these days.
In fact, it is not that there are no ghost films in Hong Kong, but there are no good horror films. In recent years, the ghost films launched in Hong Kong include "Lump Exorcist", "Oban Shengong", "There are guests", "Dead Open", "Zombies", etc., but like most of the current films, they are directly targeted at business and are easily overwhelmed by precipitation.
From the beginning of the hundred flowers blooming, let the fans breathe a lot of fun. With the west of Uncle Jiu (Lin Zhengying), the noon horse fell, the doorman Ding was quite floating, and the old actors of the original ghost film also died, and now the Hong Kong-style horror has reached the situation of no one caring. What do you want to say about the current commercial films?
