The Republic of China disaster suspense movie "River Beast" has been released on the online video platform, the film is directed by Zhang Wei, co-starring Lin Youwei, Hong Siyang, Wang Tingwen, Jiang Feng and others, mainly tells the story of laid-off policeman Gu Zhiyuan and his late wife sister Tang Xiaowei teamed up to embark on a journey of redemption about life, family affection and self!
The plot synopsis of "River Beast" is roughly as follows: in Tianjin Wei in the early years of the Republic of China, the mysterious deaths of dozens of sewer workers caused panic, and the broken corpses floating out of the river made the gods assert that water ghosts were infested, and the disaster in Jincheng was coming. Gu Zhiyuan, a laid-off policeman, relied on small jobs at the pier to maintain his and his daughter Linglong's livelihood, and the tyrannical river beast rushed ashore to wantonly destroy houses and lives, and even kidnapped Gu Zhiyuan's daughter Linglong. In order to save his daughter, Gu Zhiyuan teamed up with his deceased wife and sister Tang Xiaowei, who had a cold relationship, and embarked on a journey of redemption...
From the perspective of plot design, "River Beast" is very similar to the Korean movie "Han River Monster", telling the story of a mutant monster kidnapping a little girl, and the girl's father sacrificing his life to rescue him. However, "River Beast" is only a small cost network, whether it is special effects or details, it is a big gap with "Han River Monster".
Lin Youwei plays the male number one Gu Zhiyuan in the film, a laid-off policeman and a single father. Since the death of his wife, Gu Zhiyuan has chosen to return to the family to take care of his daughter Linglong, although the life is poor, but the father and daughter have lived very happily. But his sister-in-law Tang Xiaowei thought that Gu Zhiyuan could not give Linglong a good life, and had been fighting with Gu Zhiyuan for custody.
Tang Xiaowei is a reporter who returned from overseas, after hearing about the continuous occurrence of corpses against the water in Tianjin Wei, she began to follow up and investigate, and finally learned from the informed population that a monster came from the river, but when Tang Xiaowei published the relevant news, the gangster Kunye was extremely dissatisfied, so that Sheriff Hu of the police station quickly calmed down the incident. Sheriff Hu first asked the god to sew the corpse to lock the spirit, then bombarded the river with heavy weapons, and finally announced in public that the monster was dead. But at this moment, the river beast suddenly rushed out of the water to kill, and kidnapped Gu Zhiyuan's daughter Linglong!
After the incident, Gu Zhiyuan and his sister-in-law Tang Xiaowei abandoned their previous suspicions and began to track the whereabouts of the river beast, Gu Zhiyuan peeled off the cocoon, starting from the river transport to investigate, and finally found Kunye's head, and found that this river beast was smuggled by Kunye to Tianjin Wei, and it was hidden in the children's hospital. But when they rushed to the children's hospital, Dean Wuxun said that he originally wanted to use the river beast to do research to treat the child, who knew that the failure of the experiment caused the river beast to mutate, and now it has lost control and disappeared!
Although the river beast disappeared, Wu Xun knew its habits, and he led Gu Zhiyuan and others to investigate the sewers of the city, and finally locked the approximate place of the river beast. And Gu Zhiyuan also lived up to his expectations, successfully lured out the river beast and captured it, but in the end he learned that everything was a conspiracy! The reason why Kun Ye secretly funded Wu Xun to do experiments was actually to develop new drugs for profit, but he didn't expect that Wu Xun had been engaged in his own invention and creation, and this river beast was his outstanding work, so he used Gu Zhiyuan and others to capture the runaway river beast, and shot and killed Kunye, in a vain attempt to hide the sky!
Fortunately, Gu Zhiyuan and others were in great difficulty not to die, and he informed Sheriff Hu of the real culprit behind the scenes, and asked Sheriff Hu to immediately set out to capture Wuxun and the river beast, otherwise Tianjin Wei would become a purgatory on earth. The design of the finale is more absurd, the logic is very imprecise, the invulnerable river beast is still killing all sides one second, and the next second it is seriously injured by a small harpoon, dozens of guns can not pose a threat to the river beast, a small iron chain can easily knock it down. The protagonist's aura is too obvious, so that the film is seriously distorted, and in the end, the protagonist even tied the explosive bag to the harpoon and died with the river beast, and the explosive package is not as big as a disposable lunch box...
