Chapter 134 Fatal Turn (please vote, all kinds of votes)
Liu Xuehua is from Beijing and came to Hong Kong when he was five years old.
He was admitted to the Great Wall Actor Training Class, debuted with a few girls, and filmed a few movies, but he never became popular. She didn''t understand before, but now she knows that there is no future in a leftist company.
Her contract expires next year and she is no longer planning to renew it.
Liu Xuehua is 170cm tall and only 21 years old. She is pure and lovely. In fact, her appearance can be both bitter and heroic. However, too many Qiong Yao dramas have been filmed, leaving a stereotype.
"Xue Hua, come this way!"
At this moment, at the entrance of the Southern Theater on the left, Shi Hui waved her over and said with a smile: "I''m really dressed up today. This dress is beautiful."
"Just bought it."
"You should wear more skirts from now on. You are tall and can hold up, unlike me, who is short."
Today is the premiere of "Fatal Turn". Even though it''s a premiere, we can''t invite any guests. Fu Qi, Shi Hui and others are present, plus the main creative team, it''s really interesting.
The director is Mou Dunfu, who filmed the film under a pseudonym. He is from Shaw Brothers and cannot show his face openly, so he did not come today.
This guy later followed the leftists and filmed "Black Sun 731".
A few people went in and went to the box on the second floor. Liu Xuehua sat for a while. Seeing that the audience was still sparse, he sighed secretly: The Great Wall was suppressed, and the new film was released without any splash, so he really couldn''t stay.
She looked at Shi Hui, and she still respected Shi Hui very much, but she couldn''t say it out loud.
“…”
Fu Qi and Shi Hui were helpless when looking at the attendance rate. They had no money for publicity and the audience''s stereotype of leftists. The box office of their works in the past two years was not good. It would be good if it could exceed 2 million.
"You idiot, you came here to watch a movie. Do you want to join the Communist Party?"
"A horror movie, it''s different!"
"What kind of horror movie can the Great Wall make? It''s just a gimmick. It''s a waste of money!"
"It''s already here, shut up!"
There are young people quarreling down there. Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, and Lau Kar-leung can''t look at it. Who still looks at the leftists these days? Only half-buried old fogies from the mainland watch it.
Watching local movies, listening to Cantonese songs, speaking English, and eating Western food are the most fashionable at the moment.
The large theater with more than a thousand people was only about 30% full. After a while, the lights dimmed and the screen came on, and the Hong Kong special version of "Fatal Turn" began!
At the beginning of the film, a photographer went to the island to collect photos. The actor was an unknown actor. He only had to be good-looking and physically strong. Despite its small size, Hong Kong actually has a lot of countryside, farmland, mountains and forests, and even more small islands.
The male protagonist asked for directions at a small gas station. The people at the gas station were strange and spoke in unintelligible words. He saw a map hanging on the wall with a red line marking a path, and decided to follow the map.
He drove the car and turned onto a small road, and suddenly saw a shot dead animal on the side of the road. The blood in its throat had dried. When he looked suspiciously, he didn''t expect that there was a car in front of him in the middle, and he crashed into it.
But a few young and beautiful men and women came to the island to camp, and their tires were punctured by iron nails.
"Wow, pretty girl!"
"This is good, fair skin, beautiful appearance and long legs!"
The young audience pointed at Liu Xuehua on the screen, and the other supporting characters were also good-looking.
A movie called "The Cabin in the Woods" has summarized several major elements of a horror movie very clearly: there must be a virgin heroine, a **** supporting role, a muscular man, a cannon fodder, and a nagging madman.
In horror movies, you have to believe what the madman says!
"Fatal Turn" has a similar setting. Liu Xuehua''s virgin heroine, a pair of slutty lovers, a cannon fodder, an emotionally unstable and nagging guy, and the male protagonist is a strong man with brains.
The cars on both sides were broken down and they couldn''t leave.
It was decided to leave the couple to watch the car, while the remaining four people went to the front for help.
The couple was so debauched that they performed a repetitive sprinting motion while waiting. After a minute, the woman was resting in the car and the man was strolling outside.
The woman found that the person was missing, so she went into the forest to look for her, but she saw a **** ear. A low cry came from the audience, and before the low cry was over, the first mutated ogre suddenly appeared in front of her. behind.
He held a piece of wire in his hand, put it over her mouth, and strangled her back hard.
The woman was like the legendary Japanese slit girl. The corners of her mouth were exaggeratedly turned to both sides, her tongue was dripping with blood, and she was dragged away in a desperate struggle.
In a movie like this, the first thing you notice is the tension. The hidden murderer never shows his face, killing the protagonists like prey. The second thing to look at is the way of killing, which needs to be varied.
This ogre didn''t show his face, only his body was shown.
"I''ll take it!"
"So cruel!"
"The leftists actually make this kind of film, wow, look at her mouth!"
The low cry from the audience was immediately choked back. It rolled around in the throat a few times before bursting out again. Everyone''s eyes widened in disbelief.
On the other side, the four of them found a small wooden house. When they went in, they found that it was dirty and shabby. A large iron pot was stewed with unknown food, and bottles and jars were filled with things that looked like offal.
The heroine found a photo that seemed to be a couple and their child, but the child didn''t feel normal.
"The people up here are so weird!"
"What''s wrong?"
"I can''t tell, but it''s weird anyway!" Chen Qi laid out various details to suggest that the ogres are descendants of the Japanese, such as the tattered helmets in the room, the molds used for making sushi, etc. He had his own bad taste and added a lot of things.
The four of them felt something was wrong and were about to escape when the ogre came back in a Japanese military truck, bringing with him two prey - the couple.
The four of them had no choice but to hide and watch the ogre make a dark dish: human flesh sushi!
"Wow!"
The auditorium became increasingly noisy. In this era, this kind of film has exceeded their knowledge, and some people have already guessed: "Is it Japanese?"
"It must be, so perverted!"
"Sushi! Holy shit!"
The ogres had eaten and drank enough and were fast asleep. The four of them wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but they woke them up and started chasing and killing them.
The protagonist group died one by one, and in the end only the male and female protagonists were left. The male and female protagonists also found some information, photos and diaries in another room. This was a biochemical experimental base set up by the Japanese army when they occupied Hong Kong.
The Japanese army was defeated and evacuated, wanting to destroy the evidence and kill the researchers together. As a result, a man and a woman survived by luck, but their bodies had mutated. They lived in seclusion here and had children.
The children were born in **** and gave birth to an 8-year-old giant child.
"Wow, I just said they were Japanese!"
"It''s not surprising that such perverted things happen to them!"
There are also curses in Mandarin and even mainland dialects: "Fuck the Japanese devils!"
The male and female protagonists of "Fatal Turn" are rare brave and resourceful. They cooperated to kill two ogres, leaving only the giant 8-year-old child.
Liu Xuehua changed the weak image of his previous characters, drove a car and slammed the ogre into the wall. The male protagonist picked up an old gun left by the Japanese and blew up the gas tank with one shot. .
Boom!
In order to save costs, there is no big explosion scene, but it is not satisfactory.
The two finally killed each other and escaped.
The 90-minute movie is not long, the pace is tight, one wave after another, and there is almost no time to breathe. When it ends, the audience seems to exhale. The stimulation of watching movies touches the physiological functions, making the brain particularly excited.
Commonly known as: It’s great to see!
“What a cool movie!”
"It''s not in vain. You still said that I should bring my girlfriend next time!"
"It''s so disgusting, I don''t want to see it!"
"I think it''s pretty good, it''s very exciting! The Great Wall is pretty good this time. Did you film something before? I came here to watch movies, not to get education."
Everyone left in twos and threes.
Fu Qi was watching them upstairs. Although the number of viewers was still small, he had an intuition that this film would make money! The market for Western-style horror films is average in Hong Kong, but there are a group of die-hard fans who love this genre.
Especially for the low cost, the rate of return will be considerable.
"Xue Hua, you did a great job!"
Shi Hui took Liu Xuehua''s hand and praised her without hesitation, saying: "This is called the fragrance of plum blossoms coming from the bitter cold. Your film will definitely become a hit."
"I…"
Liu Xuehua was hesitant to speak. She wanted to say that she wanted to leave, but looking at this situation, it was better to wait and see. It was only due next year anyway.
…
In the second half of 1980, the left reappeared in the main sections of the Hong Kong film industry and media in a way that no one could have imagined. Hong Kong media used exaggerated words such as "the world is reversed and the world is out of order" to describe it.
"The Great Wall Company, which has always liked to educate people, has had an unprecedented enlightenment this time. The blood plasma is three feet thick, the killer method is pure and sophisticated, the ogres are weird and cute, and the male and female protagonists have brains. It is a good commercial film, and the future can be Expect!"
"The leftists no longer make political propaganda films, but instead make horror films. It seems that the atmosphere in mainland China has really changed!"
"The nature is the same. In the end, they all blame the Japanese. Although the blame is correct, I hate the Japanese very much!"
Huang Zhan also jumped out to comment:
"The scale is larger than that of local films, and the style is closer to the United States, which is very suitable for the climate of mainland China. As far as movies are concerned, apart from being a little rough due to lack of cost, it is still a high-quality film."
Don''t look at Huang Zhan, who wrote "My Chinese Heart". He was a rightist in the early days, and later became a leftist.
He even joined a right-wing organization, but quit after a short time because he found that the freedom and democracy that those people claimed were even more nonsense!
No matter what, "Fatal Turn" became a small hit.
Especially ten days after its release, the box office figure has exceeded 2 million, which is already the best result for the left in recent years. They don''t expect to have a record like Jackie Chan. They would be very satisfied if they could reach four to five million.
"That little comrade gave us a big gift!"
(Thanks to Chen Jinyan, the leader of the rumblings...
No more! )
