However, it rarely stands out from the crowd.
Chen Kun's "Searching for Dragons" has a box office of 65.438+67.9 billion yuan, and the movie "Tomb Notes" starring Xiao Xianrou Lu Boran has a box office of 65.438+00 billion yuan. However, the latter has a long reputation, which can be described as Qi Fei at the box office.
The only thing worth seeing is Pan Yueming's Longling Cave, with a douban score of 8.2, which is also regarded as a relatively good work in the series of Ghost Blowing Lights.
The classic is remake every year. However, the film Tomb Raider starring Chen 30 years ago is hard to surpass in realism and criticism, and it is a real masterpiece.
Compared with this horror film 30 years ago, the current tomb-robbing movies are all "pediatrics".
In fact, the score of this movie on Douban is not very high, 7.2 points, but it is the best tomb-robbing movie.
The film was banned in the second year of its release, and it is difficult to find resources at present.
Seeing the stills and names, many viewers who have never seen this film will spontaneously think that it is a "tomb-robbing film".
In fact, it is a masterpiece of analyzing human nature, and it is the best horror film in China in terms of scale and horror.
In the 1980s and 1990s, there was a wave of co-production, and many Hong Kong filmmakers went north and set off a wave of co-production.
This film, Tomb Raider, is a film co-produced by the Chua brothers and Tianshan Film Studio.
Tianshan Film Studio, founded in 1956, has filmed classic films such as Two Generations and Sunshine in Xinjiang, among which ethnic minorities account for more than 80%.
This factory is not too big, but the annual translation volume is as high as 40 copies.
Director Yuanyuan Cai also participated in many classic films, such as Chicken Hair Letter and Little Friends.
In addition to Grave Robbery, he also directed the Chua brothers film The Temptation of Big Braids.
The team strength is still very strong.
Let's talk about scale first.
Friends who have seen it know that this is a childhood nightmare.
The old editor said before that in about 90 years, the censorship system of domestic film and television dramas was very loose.
A hundred flowers blossomed in this era, and many classic large-scale dramas were produced, but they were later banned.
The horror scene in Zhen Fei's tomb presented in the film makes people's backs chill.
Pale face, slender nails, bitter eyes and skinny hands are all shadows.
At the same time, with the horror scene and the large-scale play of the actors, it can be said that the audience's bottom line has been refreshed.
It is also expected that this scale will be banned.
Large-scale and scary atmosphere are the direct factors that attract many people to watch movies. However, despite these gimmicks, the test of human nature presented in the film is the real highlight.
This story is based on real events.
Everyone is familiar with Zhen Fei, who is the favorite concubine of Emperor Guangxu.
Zhen Fei was buried in 19 15, and Fu Hai, the eunuch who served her faithfully, also stayed in the cemetery.
Until 23 years later, someone told this story, mentioning that there were many priceless jewels in the tomb of Princess Zhen, which was heard by a group of E Chen Shi and bandit spies who were short of money. So Chen Shi and his friend Guan Youyun made a plan overnight to get the treasure.
The important pen and ink of the film are all about the competition for jewelry, which is also naked human nature.
Of course, the presentation of the grave robbery process is also shocking enough, and the atmosphere of terror is rendered very well.
When we entered the cemetery, we first tested the air with an open flame.
The dark underground world casts a terrible color on the film.
They smashed Zhenfei's coffin with a sledgehammer, skillfully put a piece of cloth around Zhenfei's neck, lifted it slowly and took out Zhenfei's necklace.
If you take someone else's treasure, don't be afraid of others coming to you.
Through the screen, everyone can feel the horror, let alone the grave robbers.
Of course, the horror scene in the movie doesn't stop there.
If you take someone else's treasure, don't be afraid of others coming to you.
For example, when Empress Dowager Cixi had nightmares, she was really China's version of "Zhen Zi". It was dark at night, and Zhen Fei appeared, which was really scary.
Terror, grave robbery, human flesh, large scale, so many elements of crazy exploration on the edge of censorship appeared together, even 30 years ago, it was enough to scare the audience.
According to the report, the film scared people to death when it was broadcast.
However, because time has passed so long, it doesn't matter whether it is true or not.
The movie seems to be about a horrible process of robbing a tomb, but in fact it is about human nature induced by material.
Faced with countless treasures, people die for wealth and birds die for food. Getting rich overnight is the dream of many people.
However, a gentleman loves money and doesn't belong to himself. "Not taking a dime" is also the bottom line of many people.
How many people can stick to the bottom line?
From writing an alliance to parting ways, the organization is still empty in the end. It was because of the sudden awe and retreat that I really saved myself.
This film is full of human desires and tragic fatalism.
In the last paragraph, Chen Shi and others were beheaded by Yishui, and the whereabouts of the treasure became a mystery.
That kind of unwilling roar is a summary of his tragic life, as well as the director's sigh for the times and the fate of horror movies.
Thirty years ago, the screen technology was poor, and there were such thought-provoking movies. Why is the horror film being filmed now either schizophrenic or nightmare night?
