A few days ago, "Thunder Warrior", which plays the signature of the sequel to the big IP "Bright Sword", once again uses fantasy, fantasy and surreal performance techniques to make the domestic audience Lei's outer focus and inner tenderness.
Just like the mainstream media criticized, this post-anti-Japanese drama era is nothing more than a cover for the theme of the War of Resistance Against Japan, and the core is still the number of traffic idol dramas.
Perhaps deeply depressed after being suspended, the director of "Thunder Warrior" and the publicity team have spoken out one after another, trying to reverse the irreparable public opinion situation.
However, they themselves know that this drama is terrible, and they can only avoid the truth and knock on the corners of the door to greet him twice, and the melon-eating masses with a little brain are too lazy to pay attention to him.
Looking back at previous years, films like "Thunder Warriors" that are "backdoor listing" are not exaggerated in countless ways.
Xu is to see the great success of dramas such as "Bright Sword", "Latent", "Snow Storm" and so on, and everyone rushes to Hengdian and shoots the theme of the War of Resistance.
Hengdian created a series of miracles, including the number of Japanese puppet troops killed here, far exceeding the arduous 14-year War of Resistance.
As a result, all kinds of whimsical, divorced from reality, and strange anti-Japanese dramas have swarmed to satellite TV and video platforms, testing the audience's common sense, intelligence and patience again and again.
At that time, the anti-Japanese drama began to compete with the love idol drama of the main value of the face value for the prime time, and the chickens and dogs jumped and the farces frequently appeared.
The result of overly entertaining and fantasizing the War of Resistance is to turn the war over and over again as a brainless game, to disguise the anti-war army and people as heroes, and to treat the Japanese puppet army as two hundred and five.
What is the thunderous plot of tearing the devil, hiding the mine in the crotch, the grenade hitting the plane, the bun hiding the mine, and the brain-hole lines of "Comrades, the eight-year War of Resistance has begun" and "Eight hundred miles away, a shot killed the devil's machine gunner", all make people cry and laugh.
Nowadays, it has become more and more difficult to find an anti-Japanese drama that is entertained to death from the human setting to the story, and those "classic divine dramas" that have been named and hung up by netizens have almost disappeared.
So, who are the anti-Japanese dramas such as "Anti-Japanese Strange Hero", "Arrow on the String", and "Black Fox" really learning?
Back in 1989, a war film called "The Devil's Nest of Human Milk" was quietly released, with an extremely enticing cover and the words "inappropriate for children", which could not help but make people think of wrong.
Although this film is not small in scale, heavy in taste, and magical in plot, there is no so-called dew point shot, at best, it is a domestic small-cost B-grade film that imitates the Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts gunfight films through the shell of the War of Resistance.
However, the origin of this film is not small, the investment and main creators mainly come from the famous Eying, and the recording party is the E-Film and Audio-Visual Distribution Department.
Director Zheng Yongming is a senior film editor, is the main theme of the film "Red Star Shines on China", "Deng Jiaxian", "Heroes from Ancient Times Out of Youth", screenwriter Chen Daoyuan has participated in the screenwriting work of "Too Late to Apologize", "The Story of the Panda", "International Rescue", "Emei Flying Thief" and other films.
The biggest gimmick of this movie with a less serious name is actually the heroine Dongfang Wenying.
This well-known female star in the 1990s became famous for playing Tanchun in the 1987 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", and later starred in film and television dramas such as "Jianghu En Vengeance" and "Urban Love", won many awards such as Feitian and Golden Eagle, and is the producer of a number of main theme film and television dramas.
Speaking of which, the story of this small-cost CULT film actually did not conform to the mainstream creative ideas of domestic war films at that time.
Whether it is "War Meridian", "Evening Bell", "Beiyang Marine Division", or "Red Cherry", "Purple Sun", "Red River Valley", the domestic film and television dramas with war themes at that time all have a strong anti-war color.
Although this was greatly influenced by the Hollywood anti-war films that rose from the Vietnam War, it also reflected the Chinese filmmakers at that time, who were more inclined to reflect and scarred creative ideas, and the root was still cultural self-confidence under the background of poor comprehensive national strength.
As a result, the film starring Dongfang Wenying is closer in style to the road number of "Black Sun 731" and the 1996 version of "Nanjing Massacre", and in terms of specific plot, it is biased towards the realistic style of "exposing the evils of war".
However, the degree of pompousness and magic in the entire story structure and the design of the main characters is almost the same as that of today's anti-Japanese dramas.
In terms of style, this film is full of various elements of Hong Kong-made gunfight films, Hollywood Westerns, English 007 spy films, European Zorro action comedies, and Japanese and Korean fashion idol dramas.
In particular, the heroine Dongfang Wenying's fashionable and mixed-and-match costumes, as well as the foursome's clothes that take care of both the East and the West, completely subvert the audience's simple impression of the guerrillas behind the enemy lines during the war of resistance.
In addition to mixing and matching styles and costumes to the extreme, the story of this film is also eye-catching enough:
In the narrow road encounter with the Japanese army, although the guerrilla led by the heroine suffered heavy losses and only four people were left, they successfully annihilated a large number of enemies.
Due to the ambush, the heroine realizes that there is a ghost in the team and knows its code name B3?
During an ambush mission, they caught a Japanese officer who was holding a large glass of milky white liquid. The heroine sniffed and instantly recognized that this was actually human milk?
The iron sister was angry, and a shot broke the glass, attracting reinforcements from the Japanese army. The heroine led the team to retreat, torture intermittently, and the enemy who was tied up by the flowers almost escaped.
Someone actually broke the rope that bound the officers, and there was an inner ghost in our army.
After a secret visit and dodging open guns and dark arrows, the heroine finally discovered the mystery of the secret base of the Japanese army:
It turned out that the Japanese army captured many Chinese women who were breastfeeding, squeezed human milk for extracting strong growth hormone, and Japanese children drank those mixed with growth hormone to grow stronger?
Japanese thugs brutally abused Chinese women, and the heroine sent someone to infiltrate disguised as a nurse, but unfortunately was arrested.
As a result, the film goes downhill to show the audience various punishments such as soldering irons, bundling, and beatings, accompanied by harsh screams, and constantly interjects the treacherous smiles of Japanese ronin and milking fat women from different angles.
The heroine and the underground party codenamed "Kangaroo" should cooperate with each other, successfully capture the main brain Dr. Suzuki, and also take great pains to identify that Iron Sister is the inner ghost played by the Japanese female agent.
The passage "I was born in the Shōsei Strait northeast of Maizuru" is estimated to allow Yukio Mishima, who wrote "Kinkaku-ji Temple", to call out to the inside, and the female agent who committed suicide by cutting herself off her stomach and the Japanese ronin with a plaster flag on her chest had a fight.
In the face of all kinds of Japanese troops who jumped to death by jumping off the building with their heads turned over, the guerrillas who attacked the base with one bullet and one bullet and infinite spear were like the god of death with an invincible aura, screaming and arbitrarily harvesting human heads, and the head of the Japanese army could only be suddenly turned into a hedgehog.
In the face of absurd, fantastic, patchwork, and illogical plots, it is estimated that most of today's audiences will be stunned.
However, these are not the whole of the originators of this anti-Japanese drama.
Objectively speaking, in fact, this shoddily made film does retain a bit of artistic sense.
Some of the still shots in the film seem to be precise and exquisite, and although the shot design of the action scenes has a strong sense of age, it is not as exaggerated and boring as today's anti-Japanese dramas.
The film deliberately pairs a literary and artistic dialogue between female agents and male partners: What is outside the sea? It's a mountain; what's outside the mountain? It's the sea.
Think about it, make sense, this line, very philosophical.
The soul-destroying lines that flash out from time to time in the film are either incomprehensible, or they always make people think about it, and the taste of it needs to be experienced by themselves.
As for the so-called human milk that the enemy and I compete for in the film, this film acknowledges it, and I understand it at a glance:
