In the field of film, horror has always been a relatively special genre, people who love it to death, every three or five will find a film to challenge their guts; and for most people, horror movies have always been a forbidden area when watching movies, and they have avoided it. The success of a horror film, in addition to the actors' acting skills and plot, whether the music is in place is also a very critical factor. Today, Xiaobian will take stock of a few classic horror film music for you, which together with the characters in the film constitute the cool memories of our childhood.
I. "Hundred Ghosts and Mist Forest"
The music is from the 1992 film "Mr. New Zombie" (also known as "New Temporary Stop Breathing") starring Lin Zhengying, Xu Guanying, Qian Xiaohao, Wu Junru and others. Wu Junru played by Cane Gu and Tan Kaixin played by Nian Ying on the way to the Marshal's Mansion, encountered the legendary "red and white double brake", at this time, the music of "Hundred Ghosts and Fog Forest" suddenly sounded, making the whole scene full of extremely eerie atmosphere, a red and a white two ghost brides, but also really let our heart beat faster in childhood.
I have to say that this music really adds a lot of points to "Mr. New Zombie", although the melody is weird, but it makes the whole plot of "Red and White Double Fire" produce a mysterious beauty, especially the scene where the bride in red sits in a palanquin with her hands crossed, which is a rare classic shot in Chinese movies.
2. "The Ghost Bride"
This "Ghost Bride" must be very familiar to everyone, it is also from the film starring Lin Zhengying - "Mr. Zombie" released in 1985. The song was written by Zheng Guojiang, composed by Nie Anda, and originally sung by the Jie'er Choir.
Qiu Sheng, played by Qian Xiaohao, met the legendary ghost bride on the way to riding, and the music that sounded in this scene was this "Ghost Bride". The most frightening thing about this scene is not the female ghost Huo Xiaoyu, played by Wang Xiaofeng, but a few retinues who carry the palanquin for her. They wore old costumes and their pale faces were painted with two red dots, which made people look very strange.
However, because it is Uncle Ying's film, this scene is the same as the red and white double brakes in front of it, and it also has a different beauty. And whenever we hear the lyrics of "Her Vision", and then think of Xiaoyu's later separation from Qiusheng, it also makes many viewers sigh.
3. The theme song of "New Chat Zai Zhiyi"
This song was created by the famous musician Mak Chun Hung, if you don't know much about this name, you may wish to go to see "The Legend of the Paladin Sword" starring Hu Ge, Liu Yifei and others, most of the BGM in the play is from his hand.
Whenever this theme song sounds, I feel a sense of eerie horror. At that time, I was scared off by this music countless times and refused to watch this version of "New Chat Zai Zhiyi", but after many years we found that we could no longer see such "Chat Zhai" and never hear such excellent music, in some ways, this has to be said to be a pity.
4. "Old Corpse of a Mountain Village" episode
Some people say that this is the Cantonese opera "Selling Meat to Raise Orphans", but I am not sure personally. But these are all secondary, and the most important thing is that after this music was sung by Chu Renmei's big sister, it was really frightening.
If the first few pieces of music make people still calm down to enjoy, this episode of "Mountain Village Old Corpse" is really scary, making people feel the urge to drop the stereo and unplug the headphones every minute. Every time I hear this song, I will think of Chu Renmei's twisted face with black liquid in her mouth, even though I have seen this movie for 20 years, the psychological shadow caused by Chu Renmei to me is still there, and even sometimes when I go to the toilet and take a bath, I will unconsciously think of that terrible face.
Warm reminder, do not be confused by the lyrics of Chu Renmei's "Lang in the heart, concubine in the broken intestine", if it is not particularly bold, you must not click on this music, because it is really scary.
