When it comes to Chinese thrillers, I believe that many people will instantly appear in their minds, wooden coffins, deserted temples, Taoist robes, yellow talismans, peach wood sword , etc. Each country has its own and regional thriller elements, such as the Western werewolf , vampires, etc., and our China has the longest history, so naturally it is more comprehensive and distinctive in horror literature.
talks about the mysterious Eastern thriller, the king of corpse killing, the generation of zombie Taoist priest Mao Xiaofang , is the peak that cannot be crossed. Although Qian Xiaohao is expected to take over Uncle Ying’s mantle over the years, most of the works they shoot are similar in shape and spirit. As the saying goes, painting skins and tigers are difficult to draw bones. Over the years, it has been considered that Uncle Ying’s popularity has been lost.
Just when many of us sighed for Qian Xiaohao, I found that an actor quietly took over Uncle Ying's inheritance, that is, Lin Zhengying's and the classic Hong Kong film he represents Peng Yu'an . His movies with Maoshan as the theme have higher reputation and ratings than Qian Xiaohao. In addition to retaining Uncle Ying's classic elements, it also added folk legends such as "Fox Yellow White Willow Gray" in the Northeast, Baojiaxian and Yin and Yang Dagenren, which are very innovative.
What I want to introduce to you today is the 12-episode fine online drama " Folk Strange Talks " that Peng Yu's is about to be aired by
The drama is starring Peng Yu's Chen Fengwen , and Wang Qing . It is based on Chinese thriller and follows the suspense detective style of the Republic of China. It also adds the setting that the "Four Little Yinmen" has never appeared before. The play tells the story of a series of bizarre murders that occurred in Linjia Town in the early years of the Republic of China.
A maid died in the Chenghuang Temple but disappeared; at the scene of the serial murder case, a paper man with a red face was placed next to the body. There are rumors that the paper man killed someone. These cases are more strange and strange than the other, and are all related to the mysterious "Four Little Yinmen".
The police had no idea how to start, so they had to invite Shen Xiaohan, the "second cobbler" known as the "little folk detective", to help solve the case. Gods and ghosts have different ambitions and absurd things, and people in the world have decided on cases. Behind the weirdness is the ghosts or the human hearts are unpredictable, the mysterious truth is about to be revealed.
This drama really put my expectations. In fact, if you watch too many dramas, you will find that the smaller the number of episodes, the higher the quality. The unknown small cast often pays more attention to polishing the plot and acting skills, becoming a "dark horse work". Let's introduce the cast below.
Peng Yu'an
Over the years, he has been committed to folk movies and has made dramas such as " Taoist priests come out of the mountain ", " Maoshan Taoist priests ", "Yin and Yang Fight Against People". Although it has opened the door to his acting career with the image of " Taoist priests ", Peng Yu'an is obviously more pursuing than Qian Xiaohao. In his folk movies, the protagonist has a slightly discerning temperament, but has an upright heart. In the plot, we often introduce new things. Based on Maoshan Taoist Technique, Qimen Dunjia, Physical Art , Northeast Immortals and other settings have been added.
Chen Yuewen
This girl is very beautiful, very exquisite, and has experience in participating in folk films and TV series. She has made her mark in the role of Shen Qiong in "Sand Sea". Although her subsequent " Golden Eyes " has a bad reputation, it is mainly concentrated on Xiaomianyang and the script. The second female lead Qin Xuanbing she played is not bad.
Bai Zhidi
I believe everyone will recognize this old man at a glance. He is still active in the film and television industry. He has made more than 100 film and television works since his debut. He plays the role of the old prosecutor in " In the Name of the People " and the old leader Ma Shouchang in " People in the World " and have been widely praised.
Next, I will give you a highlight of the show.
Highlight 1: The cast is both beautiful and powerful, and the drama has put a lot of effort into the configuration of other actors. Young actors include Wang Qing, Yu Xinhe , He Congrui , Ying Haoming , etc., all of which are quite good-looking and have sufficient acting experience, so there will be no "traffic awkward acting".
"Folk Talks" In addition to Mr. Bai Zhidi, there are also four powerful actors joining, all of which are deeply loved by the audience.
Wang KuirongOld man, a national first-class actor, nearly 80 years old, has more than 200 film and television dramas since his debut. It can be said that many viewers grew up watching him. The image in the drama is always right and wrong. Sometimes he is a righteous old detective, and sometimes he is a fierce and treacherous gangster boss, a true old actor.
The other three Ge Si, Tan Kai, and Ma Yan are also very familiar with each other. They are all acting people who speak based on their works. They are anxious to tell their friends about the plot, so they won’t introduce them too much.
Highlight 2: The plot setting is innovative and sincere
Since ancient times, there are many strange things among the people, and there are many strange people in the world far away, and "Four Small Yinmen" strange people are entrenched.
Frequent murders occurred in the village, with a lot of fog and ghostly sayings are rampant. The spring thunder suddenly sounds, and the Jingzhe has arrived; the city god gets married, and there are endless strange talks! There are four businesses that deal with dead people.
First word: Second Cobbler
leads the needle and sews the body into burial. The line of Yinmen tailor focuses on the connection between one line, with beginning and end, and cause and effect. The protagonist Shen Xiaohan is the successor of Er Cobbing. He came out to help the police solve the bizarre serial murder case.
together, paper man and paper horse travel thousands of miles at night. According to legend, paper man and paper horse made of this craft can travel between yin and yang thousands of miles in a flash, but the Zhacai Craft has not revealed the world for many years, and a red-faced paper man was placed next to the body of the murder case, and all the clues pointed to the Zhacai Craft.
a pair of magic eyes, autopsy and warding offense. One strange thing after another triggered an old case from many years ago, and brought up the "coroner" who had seen the corpse back then, but this "coroner" has always been alone, and no one remembers him except those corpses.
A ghost-headed knife in his hand, killing the gods above and the ghosts below. Legend has it that the executioner never sharpens the knife. They believe in killing people with a knife. If the executioner sharpens the knife, it is the person killed by the executioner.
These four kinds of activities are called the Four Small Yinmen.
Highlights 3: Well-made
As we all know, the most important thing about a thriller drama is to create a horror atmosphere. The drama has put a lot of effort into creating a gloomy feeling. There are many night scenes, and the shooting angle must be very unique. The costumes are very consistent with Chinese thrillers, with hidden villages, deserted temples, statues of gods, incense tables, coffins, spirit banners, and other details are very good.
So the story is over here. "Folk Strange Talk" will meet the audience in the next few days. I don't believe that anyone will not expect this innovative subject!
