In recent years, a group of Hong Kong zombie film crews, such as Qian Xiaohao, Liu Guanwei, Chen You, Lou Nanguang, have tried to recreate their former glory, but unfortunately they are all "Biochemical Medicine Corpse", "Mr. Supreme", "Mr. Four Eyes" and "Mr. "" and other shoddy Internet movies, not only did not evoke the memories of movie fans, but instead triggered us to look back at the classics of the former Jiu Shu Lin Zhengying.

Lin Zhengying’s zombie film must be a boutique. He is the most secure zombie leader in the hearts of movie fans. As long as he is there, he will not be afraid. Jiu Shu has acted in many psychic action movies, such as "Mr. Zombie", "Mr. Magic", "Brow Man", "Exorcist Daoist", "Exorcist Police", etc. How many people know about Jiu Shu Lin Zhengying Which movie was the head of the road?

​​"Ghost Fighting Ghost" is known as the originator of psychic action movies. Sammo Hung led an era when the nine-uncle Lin Zhengying was just a small catcher in it. Among them, "Ghosts Fighting Ghosts", "Man Scaring" and "Man Scaring Ghosts" are also called trilogy. In the second "Man Scaring", Jiu Shu ushered in his first role as a Taoist leader. In the film, he said he would The mantle was passed to Sammo Hung, and in real life it was Sammo Hung who handed the banner of the psychic action movie to Lin Zhengying, and he carried it forward.

"Frightening People" was created by the original crew of "Ghost Fighting Ghosts". Sammo Hung is still the producer, producer, screenwriter, and lead actor, but he gave the guide to Mr. Wu Ma. Compared with the previous work, the action scenes have been reduced, and the jokes have been upgraded. The film was released on December 22, 1982, earning 10.1 million Hong Kong dollars, and it entered the list of the top ten movies that year.

Although Mr. Wu Ma is a bit worse than Sammo Hung in terms of director, he was once a director under Zhang Cheda, who is also an all-rounder of director and editor. He has co-directed "The Big Pirate" and "Water Margin" with Zhang Che and Bao Xueli, independent He has directed works such as "Shaolin Heroes", "Sisters on Stage", "Happy God's Nest", and "Exorcist Master". "Scary Man" is also an excellent work in his director career. Douban scores 7.1. It is a classic psychic action film that combines elements of action, comedy, and ghosts.

Wu Ma, Sammo Hung and Lin Zhengying have very good personal relationships, so he was assigned an important role "Second Uncle", that is, the first time that Jiu Shu Lin Zhengying became a Taoist priest. Compared with his later actions such as "Mr. Zombie" and "Mr. Compared with the image of the dashing zombie Taoist chief, this time is a faltering and old-fashioned image of the elderly. Although the theoretical knowledge is rich, two assistants, Chen Long and Liu Qiusheng, are needed for the method. The most funny places are Hong Jinbao and Wu Ma. The two carried him forward quickly. The story of

is not complicated. Ma Linxiang and a couple conspired to steal the funerary objects from their tomb with "fake death". After learning that there were no funerary objects, Ma Linxiang was killed by the couple. In desperation, Ma Linxiang could only ask his friend Zhu Hongli for help. He wanted to take advantage of his friend's body to go out on his own, but the soul of his friend couldn't return to his place and turned into a ghost. However, Zhu Hongli was lucky. He was helped by his fiancé, Xiaoyun, who was married. Under the guidance of his second uncle, Xiaoyun fought violently with Yinchai, and finally rescued her husband.

​​Sammo Hung, as the starring role, is in charge of the action and comedy of the film. The beginning of the dream destroys the good things of others and hits the ghost, dresses up as a paper man to check the body for a friend, and changes his personality after being possessed by a friend. Sammo Hung is really the soul of the film. Without him, it would be half of the fun, and be tricked by the ghost Ma Linxiang. The most pitiful thing is that the buddy Liu Qiusheng is going to the toilet in the middle of the night, and he fell and hit the wall again. In the end, Chen Long was terrified.

Director Wu Ma personally went into battle and starred in Ma Linxiang, who was a friend of the special pit, and commented in one sentence: You will not die if you don't do it. It can also be said that you cannot live by committing evil. "Fake death" stole his own funerary goods. As a result, "false death" became "real death", and in the end he lost his friend's life. But he was also miserable enough. Being a "corpse" was not easy. First he was stripped for examination by Sammo Hung, then his teeth were extracted by the mage, and then he was tried by a silver needle for poison.

​​In comparison, the female role plays a lot less. The 22-year-old Zhong Chuhong had already partnered with Sammo Hung at that time. It is no wonder that he later cooperated again in "The Five Lucky Stars". In the film, Zhong Chuhong is an infatuated woman. For his brother Zhu, he went to the "cock" and fought badly. Although she finally rescued her husband,One day, she will still be a widow, because she negotiates with the bad guy, as long as the Zhu family has offspring, his brother Zhu will go back.

Compared to another female character, Li Yueying, she is the most cruel and feminine. If she didn't want to kill Ma Linxiang, if she wasn't greedy for money, maybe her child would not die. As for Xu Liangmei, who starred in Li Yueying, there is very little information. Only this film is introduced about her.

Zhong Fa still continues the professional Taoist priest of "Ghost Fighting Ghosts", but he is no longer the kind-hearted Taoist who helped Sammo Hung, and has become a greedy Taoist. Taoist priests have no problem dealing with ghosts. They can only be beaten when they encounter the most flexible fat man Sammo Hung, and they end up in death. Since then, Zhong Fa seems to have become a habit, and he was killed as soon as he acted as a Taoist priest. The best proof is in "Uncle Zombie" and "Hunter Mansion".

would also like to mention three eccentricities. They must have come from hell. They look like aliens. They are definitely the most adorable ones in history. At the same time, Jiu Shu Lin Zhengying also popularized a lot of knowledge of Maoshan Taoism in the film, such as using willow branches to beat ghosts, hitting a short three inches, ghosts turning into insects and resurrecting in "Twenty Seven", and underpants can cover ghosts. In general, this is an interesting ghost film from start to finish, and it is worth watching. Finally, I ended up with a sentence from Sammo Hung: You don’t have to live long, but to live wonderfully!
