John Carpenter, a geeky director who turned police gunfight films into zombie films

11 years ago, Chen Musheng's directorial work "The True Colors of Boys" was released;

At the end of the film, the villain played by Wu Jing and a group of accomplices infiltrated the police station and almost destroyed the protagonists played by Nicholas Tse and Yu Wenle

I remember seeing the climactic villain dueling at the police station at that time, I couldn't help but sigh the director's brain hole: the villain actually killed directly to the police station, it was really not according to the routine

The villain's direct killing of the police station is not the first of "Boys' True Colors";

In 1976, Blood Spatter 13, directed by John Carpenter, set a precedent

John Carpenter, born in the United States in 1948, is very good at creating a horror and mysterious atmosphere with a low budget, and his films are often dark, cold, and at the same time with some cold humor, and his representative works include "Strange Shape", "Moonlight Panic", "New York Great Escape" and so on

The film begins with three three story lines:

Article 1: Bishop is a police inspector who has been instructed to guard the soon-to-be-abandoned Police Station 13

Reluctantly, Bishop obeyed orders and went to Police Station 13

Article 2: Three prisoners, led by Napoleon, will be transported to another prison as planned

On the way to be escorted, a prisoner fell ill halfway, and the police officers in his entourage had no choice but to drive to the nearest police station No. 13

Soon the gang killed a merchant who sold ice cream

Not only that, but he also killed an innocent little girl who bought ice cream

The angry father chased the gang members with the ice cream merchant's pistol and managed to kill one of them

The father of the girl who killed the gang members was panicked and ran all the way to the No. 13 police station

Here, the three story lines come together, and the main content is exactly the beginning:

The girl's father had a nervous breakdown when he arrived at the police station and was unable to speak

Subsequently, telephone lines and wires at the police station were cut off

The escorts and others were attacked by gang members and received bento boxes

The police station was immediately attacked by gang fire, and a large number of people in the police station could not lift their heads

After the strafing, the gang members hid in the shadows, and it was as if nothing had happened in the neighborhood

The calmed down crowd found that there was only one exit for the entire police station, and it was completely impossible to evacuate the police station safely

A female clerk tried to hand over the father of the girl who was hiding, but Bishep and policewoman Li Yanzi refused

The War was on the verge of breaking out, and out of humanitarianism and a lack of manpower, Bishop asked Lee to release Napoleon and the black prisoners from the inmates

One by one, gang members rushed into the police station

Bishop with a shotgun, Napoleon with a shotgun, Lee and the Negro with pistols, began a tough defense

After a period of fighting, the female clerk was unfortunately killed, and at this time, only Inspector Bishop, policewoman Lee, two prisoners and a lifeless girl's father were left in the police station, and everyone at this time was running out of food

The crowd also found that after the battle, except for the corpses in the police station, they were all cleared by the gang members, and the street was calm

The crowd decided that one person would reach the car outside the police station through the sewers to ask for help

Lee's arm was injured, and Bishop would not start the keyless car, but could only choose one person between Napoleon and the black prisoners

After a "potato" duel, the black prisoners took on the heavy responsibility

The black prisoner made it to the car, and just as the black prisoner was approaching the phone booth, the bandit who had been ambushed in the back of the car shot and killed the black prisoner

Seeing that the plan failed, Bishop and his party reluctantly entered the basement and prepared for a battle

Before entering the basement, Bishop found the secret weapon of the police station, acetylene, and Bishop placed acetylene at the entrance of the basement, ready to use a bullet to ignite acetylene to deliver a fatal blow to the gangs

At the same time, a patrol police car passed nearby, and the patrol officer accidentally found the body of the cable worker and immediately called for police support

The police station was surrounded and suppressed by a large number of gang members, and Bishop exploded acetylene with only three bullets, and a group of gang members were killed

At this time, a large number of police support arrived, the remaining gang members fled in a hurry, and Bishop and others were finally rescued after a bloody battle, and the whole drama ended

"Blood Spatter 13 Police Station" is John Carpenter's second directorial work;

Although the film is labeled as a police gunfight, it actually has the look and feel of a zombie movie;

In the two scenes where gang members storm into the police station and the inspector and his party fight in the basement, the perception of watching zombie movies is even stronger

The film's female characters are definitely a highlight;

Under the siege of gang members, policeman Lee has no timidity, holding a pistol and a "woman" to be closed;

Even at times, Lee is calmer and wiser than the other two male protagonists

"Blood Spatter 13 Police Station" is also a textbook model for low-budget films;

The film does not exaggerate violence, and there are only two exchanges of fire between the police and gang members;

It can be seen that the word "blood spatter" is exaggerated in the name of the film;

But the atmosphere of the film makes the audience shiver, hiding in the shadows of bandits, blackouts, ammunition, insufficient manpower, no way back;

The director's setting makes the film not much fight scenes, but it is enough to make the audience break out in a cold sweat

The flaws in Blood Spatter 13 are also obvious

The film lacks a strong villain character;

The four gang members wandering the streets at the beginning of the film are completely missing in the later part of the film, and the attacks of the bandits are also disorganized and disorganized, and they will only rush to the police station and give heads to the protagonists

And in the movie, the little girl's father also has a head and no tail;

After shooting a gang member and escaping to the No. 13 police station, he was in a state of paralysis that was half dead, and during the movie, xiaobian once thought that this character had been shot and killed;

Finally, when the rescue came, the girl's father jumped out of his mouth with a word of thanks
