In the history of film, there is a category of movies although they belong to niche movies.
But often because of its unique style or its sub-cultural attributes, it has gained a large number of fans. This type of movie is cult film (cult film).
Of course, niche does not mean that they should be underestimated. In fact, there are many maverick directors in the history of film, who became famous for cult movies and then entered the mainstream film circle. Today I recommend ten unpopular cult films. the film.
Before recommending, we must figure out what is a cult movie?
According to the definition given by Mtime.com, Cult film (Cult film/Cult Movie) refers to a movie that is loved and respected by supporters in small 圈. It refers to the unique shooting technique, strange theme, Swordsmanship is slanting, unusual in style, with strong personal opinions, controversial, and usually low-cost production, not market-oriented films.
In short, cult movies can be said to have no fixed style. Its definition comes from its spread and acceptance.
A movie that was not followed or criticized when it first came out, but later became popular among niche groups, it is a cult movie. All films that are anti-mainstream values, anti-type concepts, and anti-traditional film language can be called cult films.
In this sense, there are some typical cult movies, such as:
Quentin’s "Pulp Fiction" was born for a period of time, even Stephen Chow’s "Western Journey" and "Return to the Soul Night" "And so on, as well as the famous "Rocky Horror Show" and so on.
These were once considered cult movies, which has nothing to do with their content, but because they have gained admiration in Xiao圈.
has made these clear, the author will recommend some popular cult movies that are more recommended by myself. The front may be more powerful and not suitable for watching during meal time.
Witcher’s deception
was first a cult documentary produced by Beijing Science and Education Film Studio in the 1980s. Based on social surveys of feudal superstition activities in Shaanxi, Sichuan and other places, as well as materials obtained by the public security department, the directors of
co-produced the science and education film "The Witcher's Deception", which is included in the history of Chinese cult movies.
The film has powerfully exposed and criticized the superstition activities that have poisoned China for thousands of years through many tragedies caused by living superstitions. The most shocking thing about the film is that the director adopts the methods of Western horror films. This kind of ghostly soundtrack and highly realistic lively shots left many viewers with childhood shadows.
The author still remembers that this documentary was organized by the elementary school and went to the cinema to watch it, and it was amazing!
毒吻
A sci-fi horror film that the famous Xi'an Film Studio boldly tried in the 1990s.
The film tells about a couple in a chemical factory after they had their precious son, but because their wife was injured by the chemical factory's body during pregnancy, the child was born with highly toxic, and every time thunder and lightning The violent prolonged, the toxicity also increased, and eventually was destroyed by lightning.
The film is said to be an environmentally friendly film dedicated to World Environment Day. However, the shooting method is horrifying, and the absurd story will leave an indelible impression in the hearts of every viewer who has watched the film.
Poison boy looked terrifying and terrifying when he attacked... These are undoubtedly the bold attempts of the creators of the year.
However, the overall production of the film is shoddy, but there was such a strange imagination twenty years ago, and I had to admire the domestic filmmakers at that time.
Group corpses played over the world
"Lord of the Rings" series director Peter Jackson's famous work.
The film is a comprehensive tribute to the zombie movies that were popular in Europe and America at that timeJinghe spoof. In the movie, various terrifying and disgusting scenes of zombies show the "bad taste" of the fledgling PJ director at the time.
The number of elements incorporated in the story is amazing:
Ma Bao male fights Tyrannosaurus mother zombies, Bruce Lee possesses priests to show off his power, and the protagonist uses lawn mowers to spread zombies in the ultimate battle The scene of the massacre really defines what a "power mowing" player is.
was considered to be the most abnormal, bizarre, scariest and most inhuman work that surpassed all previous films.
The New York Daily News said it was "the bloodiest work so far."
However, these bloody and disgusting things have also cast its classic status in the history of horror films. Director Jackson has also won the title of "Master of Horror" and has since entered the sight of Hollywood.
女体铳
This is a cult revenge film directed by a very small Japanese independent director Mitsumusashito.
The plot of the story is probably like this. The story of a man who was killed by a pervert and trained a fallen woman in order to avenge the perversion.
The title of the film "Female Body Gun" actually means "The female assassin who buried the gun in her body."
The movie is filled with a lot of plasma and violence. What's more impressive is the exaggerated physical performance of playing the villain, a perverted necrophile. It is said that the character prototype comes from a Japanese cannibal. Mo Sagawa Kazumasa.
黑阳光731
In 1988, Hong Kong implemented the electrical inspection and classification system. "Black Sun 731" produced by Yindu Film Company was fortunate to become the first official third-level film of Hong Kong Real Estate. At the same time, it became the first tertiary film in the Chinese film industry.
Its appearance is a watershed in Hong Kong movies (the pioneering work of tertiary films), and it has historical significance across the ages.
However, it must be noted that the film itself does not focus on nudity and other quiet scenes. The theme is even very the main theme. Hong Kong leftist director Mou Dunfu even puts the subtitles "Don't forget the national shame" at the end of the film, which is meant to explain This is still a film on the theme of the War of Resistance Against Japan that fits the national conditions of the mainland at that time.
However, the film overly rendered the violent and bloody scenes. In pursuit of realism, the director even went to the Harbin Hospital to buy the remains of the dead as props during the filming process. This also led to the film being banned in mainland China. It is also classified as a three-level movie in Hong Kong.
later derived the sequel "Black Sun: 南京大杀" , which was also banned because of excessive realism.
打蛇
Director Mou Dunfu is probably the most accomplished but also the most underrated one in the history of Chinese cult movies, because his works have been banned many times, except for the above one. "Black Sun" and "Snake Strike" about the tragic experience of Hong Kong smugglers.
In 1980, Hong Kong implemented an immediate arrest and immediate resolution policy for stowaways. On the other hand, the trend of smuggling from the mainland continues. Stowaways are called "human snakes", which also gave birth to some gangs. The "snake" industry in which the kidnappers extorted their relatives.
"Snake" is a very shocking and controversial movie. The audience who had watched "Snake" back then were all scared by the cruel methods of "Man Snake" in the film by 抯個. In one of the scenes, more than 30 men and women were stripped naked and trapped in a hut. The scene of abuse of QJ was jaw-dropping.
The movie was released for less than two days that year, and it was banned by the Hong Kong authorities, and even the copy was destroyed. Although there was a repaired version of the film afterwards, it is said that it has been cut to a certain extent. No chance to see.
PLA in Paris
as a famous dramaClearly, this French comedy has a big brain and is a product of cultural horror in a special age.
The film is a fictional story about China sending 600 million People’s Liberation Army into France, the French president fled to the United States, the People’s Liberation Army did not resist the attack of sugar-coated shells after peacefully occupying Paris without a single shot and a bullet, and retreated across the board. .
was produced by the famous French leftist director Jean Janan. In fact, the film used a joking tone to reflect on the global cultural and political environment at that time.
刑房
"Xingfang" is a horror film directed by Robert Rodriguez and starring Rose McGowan and Quentin Tarantino.
The film is composed of two separate stories, "King Kong Isn't Bad" and "Horror Planet", respectively directed by two directors. The usual methods of B-class movies are everywhere-super hot big beauties, highways Chase, kill and explode, and then plus zombies rampant.
The title of the film "Xing Fang" is to pay tribute to the low-cost movies that swept the United States in the 1960s and 1970s-"Grindhouse Movies". These movies are often produced at very low cost by commercials and are full of violence. And B-level production of bare lens.
About this movie, perhaps the most famous one is an animated picture. After the female protagonist in "Horror Planet" was bitten by a zombie on her thigh, the male protagonist installed an M4A1 rifle for her severed limb , The bullets are infinite, and the zombies are attacked from heaven and earth, and they really have a clear mind for the taste of B-grade zombie film lovers.
Evil Night Live Dead Chicken
Summarize this film in one sentence:
After watching you may not want to eat chicken for a month.
The film is a mixture of zombie themes and comedies. The director maximizes the distortion of the zombie shape, and everyone infected by the virus must become a living dead with a chicken head!
Various feces and low-level interesting passages, the film melts zombies, horror, song and dance, eroticism and other elements, and various heavy-mouth scenes have appeared endlessly.
makes the author can't help but maliciously guess what kind of grievances the director is having by KFC!
A person and his pig
If the above movies still can’t satisfy you, then there is only this ultimate work.
Please feel yourself the style of the plot introduction——
The plot tells about a lonely man living on a farm. His whole life is to feed livestock and a huge sow. He has many quirks, the most incomprehensible of which is drinking a glass of his own urine every day. Over time, the man actually developed feelings for the sow, and soon the two had a close relationship across species.
Then the sow is pregnant, and the man’s pig child is left. The man treats his pig child very well, but the pig child only recognizes his mother. The disappointed man killed the pig boy, ate its meat, and killed the sow. Finally, he hanged to death on a lonely tree.
I will ask you, is this story surprised or surprised?
The whole film has no dialogue, no soundtrack, and the director directed and acted by himself. The film is very strange, especially the strange noise in the background.
Once released, the film has aroused public opinion. Some people think that this is a pure fantasy film with no meaning, but some people think that the director has revealed through his bizarre photography that loneliness brings craziness. The proposition.
