As we all know, in the 80s and 90s of the last century, the "zombie film" was absolutely a ride, and Lin Zhengying's "One Eyebrow Daoist" and "Mr. Zombie" all had good results.
Here too is an episode! Many people know that Lin Zhengying has gone the farthest on the road of zombie movies, and the various "big god" actions are very graphic. Therefore, many people regard it as the founder of the "zombie film", but it is not.
The real founder of the zombie film should be Liu Guanwei, whose uncle is a descendant of a real Maoshan Taoist who has been exposed to a lot of this kind of thing in the years of contact with his uncle.
Later, he became a photographer under Hong Jinbao, and in films such as "Ghost Fighting Ghosts" and "Scary People", he created a general "framework" for zombie films, such as: imaginative Taoist techniques, spells, etc.
Because of these things as a foundation, Hong Jinbao cooperated with Lin Zhengying to have a classic work like "Mr. Zombie". Unfortunately, after Lin Zhengying died of cancer, no one could carry the banner of "zombie film".
It is worth mentioning that in recent days, a zombie film by Lin Zhengying's "apprentice" Qian Xiaohao was released, and the overall effect was quite good, which caused the attention and hot discussion of many netizens.
Who is Qian Xiaohao, in many zombie films, he and Xu Guanying are Lin Zhengying's "royal disciples". Because the action is more dashing and smooth and handsome, it is liked by netizens.
After Lin Zhengying's death, although he could not carry the banner of zombie films, he was also a leader in the field of zombie films, and he had directed and acted in many such films, such as "Master of Spiritual Illusion" a year ago, which was a very good web drama, and the director he cooperated with was Liu Guanwei.
At present, the "Great Illusionist" that is being released is a fantasy network movie starring Qian Xiaohao, Sun Feixiang, Liao Mengyan, Guan Xiangyun and Pan Yanfei, and its story plot is very interesting.
In a way, it seems to be a tribute to the "Exorcism Police" of Lin Zhengying and Wu Ma, the two predecessors. In the film, there are Taoist techniques of "turning stones into gold", there are also sections of fighting with the masters of Oriental illusion, and there are also "Michiko" that resembles the plot of "Exorcist Police".
At the same time, this drama is also more careful in the production of special effects! In the play, there is a scene of Robin played by Qian Xiaohao and Michiko fighting, the former summons the Red Flame Dragon, the latter summons the Xuanbing White Tiger, and the fight picture is not an ordinary addiction.
However, "The Great Illusionist" also has shortcomings, that is, its storyline, most of which is borrowed from "Exorcist Police", and there is not much really "original" stuff. From this point of view, the decline of "zombie films" seems to have become a trend, after all, this field is really biased, and non-wizards cannot take on this big responsibility.
This is also reflected in Qian Xiaohao's early works, he has a film called | "Zombie", which tells the decline of Maoshan Taoism, and the glutinous rice that was once used to be used to fry rice, which made many viewers sigh.
However, in the stage of the decline of zombie films, it is also remarkable that Qian Xiaohao can come up with such a fantasy production. I look forward to it, in the future, he will come up with better works to fill the gap in the field of zombie films and bring more surprises to everyone.
For Qian Xiaohao's new drama "The Great Illusionist", many netizens think that he is "consuming feelings", what do you think about this?
