From "Resident Evil" to "The Walking Dead" to last year's hit "Train to Busan", zombie movies have become extremely popular in recent years. Zombie movies have also slowly changed from simple action movies about killing monsters to now tools for promoting sensibilities. However, China's Lin Zhengying , who can be called the originator of zombie movies, has gradually been forgotten by everyone.
Lin Zhengying, formerly known as Lin Genbao, is a famous Hong Kong artist. He has worked with famous actors such as Sammo Hung and Bruce Lee. He is the pioneer of Chinese zombie movies. In his zombie films, zombies also have human emotions; but humans have their own purposes, like "zombies" without emotions. Moreover, his zombie films are not just horror, but also have a comedic tone. Therefore, there is a saying that "there will be no zombie movies after Lin Ching-ying." During his serious illness, he hid his illness in order not to worry his good friend Sammo Hung. It's a pity that he died young and can only remain in our memories.
With his iconic sky-high eyebrows, he looks very righteous and heroic, and his subordinates also have zombies who value emotions. I remember that when I was watching " zombie family ", I was moved by the innocent friendship between the little zombies and the children. On the contrary, people in his zombie movies are not very innocent.
When I was watching his " Exorcist Police ", I was very worried about him when he competed with the Japanese zombie cultivator. But in the end, the big Japanese zombie was killed, and evil prevailed over good.
The chicken blood, ink thread, copper coin sword, glutinous rice, and charms on his hands are all so magical that they can kill zombies. Watch Lin Zhengying's zombie movies with fear and curiosity. Compared with the disgusting nature of zombies, Lin Zhengying's zombie movies focus more on exaggerating the atmosphere, so they are more terrifying, but they will not leave a shadow on people.
In short, Lin Zhengying’s zombie movies are the originator of zombies. Pay tribute to Lin Zhengying.
