"Go, my goddess!"
After Jane Eyre modifies an M4 assault rifle and Ray Eyre fits it to Cherry's lap, the former goddess becomes a beautiful, sexy, and murderous superhero in this moment.
Cherie instantly became super cool, a dancer with a broken leg, who was fitted with a prosthetic leg of an M4 assault rifle by her boyfriend, and fought to the death with zombies.
The audience in the theater is in a special carnival atmosphere, which is completely cool, dazzling, and draggy enough killing feast!
In the back row, Todd McCarthy, a film critic from The Hollywood Reporter, nodded lightly, and this weird film is exactly as advertised, and it's really interesting.
He came to see that "Planet of Terror" was well received by his British counterparts at the Cannes Film Festival.
On the screen, after Cheley's prosthetic limb was upgraded to a machine gun, she was invincible, seeing people killing, seeing Buddha killing Buddha, especially Cherie combining striptease action with killing, dragging her machine gun to sprint, jump, fire cannon in the air, and fall to the ground to strafe The shot is really breathtaking.
Those B-grade movie lovers are already so excited that they are about to cry!
Then, the heads of the zombies flew into the sky, and the helicopter propellers launched a terrifying massacre of the zombies, with stumps and severed arms, internal organs and blood, all splashed everywhere.
This completely pushed the atmosphere of the film to **!
There was also an uproar in the theater, it seems that only in this way can those B-grade movie lovers vent the joy in their hearts!
This film is so direct, the purpose is very clear, it is to make people happy, the focus of the film is not to create a terrifying atmosphere, torturing people's nerves, but relying on a large amount of plasma splashing, dismembering the living, mutant zombies, machine gun beauties and other exciting pictures, so that people can experience the thrill of killing.
Brooke Stern is Miller Davis's companion, and unlike Miller Davis, he's a true B-movie lover, and at this moment it feels like his soul is flying with joy!
There are too many elements in this film to make people excited!
Indeed, What zombie movie doesn't have a beautiful woman in it? It seems that in this type of film, the conflict between beauty and ugliness is more dramatic and more durable.
But the beauties in "Terror Planet" are a bit different: one leg is a deadly automatic rifle, a slender figure, killing zombies and special forces without breathing, if some orthodox writers want to write a book that explores "**** and violence", the stills of the heroine are suitable as the main picture.
She started out as a weak woman, and her names were extremely ambiguous"", and then she was turned into an invincible goddess King Kong by zombies!
There is also a plot, the plot of this type of film is generally routine, but most of the plots of "Horror Planet" are not played according to the cards, for example, the biochemical weapons expert confidently led everyone to prepare to grab the plane, I felt that this guy was very strong and stylish, but as soon as he showed up, he was beaten into a deflated fly...... There are many similar small plots, which can not only highlight humor, but also bring surprises.
Of course, just like the companions around you will only pay attention to the heroine's hot figure and a few leaky ** scenes, there are clean people, people who don't like to watch fights and kills, people who never listen to metal rock, people who are neither interested in zombie movies nor have any feelings, and people who hate B-grade movies, "Fear Planet" is definitely not suitable for them.
Compared with other fans who are still immersed in the cheerful atmosphere brought by the film, Todd McCarthy is very calm, he is a professional film critic, and he is still a well-known and high-status media in the industry such as "The Hollywood Reporter", and he has his own judgment on any movie, and now he has just finished watching the movie, and he remembers the various plots in it more clearly, and it is the best time to write a professional film review.
Leaving the Chiefstone Cinema, Todd McCarthy went straight back to the studio not far away, and picked up the pen and manuscript paper as soon as he entered the office.
Although computers and typewriters were widespread, he was still used to writing in this most traditional way.
Sitting at his desk, Todd McCarthy thought for a moment and wrote down the first line.
"To make a complex and wonderful good story into a glass of boiled water, it is the director's mediocrity and incompetence; Filming a simple story is exciting, wonderful and funny, and has an endless aftertaste, which is the success of the director. In this respect, Murphy Stanton's "Planet of Terror" is a success! ”
He stopped, took a sip from his glass, and continued writing.
"I don't think the news from the Cannes Film Festival is entirely true, the script of this film is very solid, and it can be called the best script of all zombie films."
"The director casts a strong suspense in the military base scene at the beginning of the film, and then the first third describes the relationship between the main characters, where people are the focus, not zombies. The middle third becomes the confrontation between zombies and characters, which is the most important and vulgar part of zombie films, such as zombies slowly swaying from a distance, protagonists hiding everywhere, zombies suddenly jumping out of the shadows and scary, etc., but director Murphy Stanton handles it very quickly and intensely. ”
"In this part, there are not only glamorous **** shots, frankly speaking, many plots here lack logic, but the B-grade film itself does not need too strict logic, and the director obviously cut out the confluence passages that reduce the rhythm, and the fight against zombies skips hand-to-hand combat, and directly enters the refreshing bridge of point shooting, headshots and car crashes."
"The last third of the plot has turned to the people, especially in the military base, a scene that not only corresponds to the beginning but also increases the difficulty of the confrontation and improves the effect of the scene, and the beauty with a big gimmick and machine gun legs did not successfully transform until this time, and then opened the killing ring, directly triggering the final ** scene!"
"Although this film is about zombies, the imitation of zombie films is mainly focused on the first two paragraphs, and the dark horror of zombie films is not the focus of a sense, and the final ** is not to attract attention by killing zombies everywhere like chopping melons and vegetables."
"Director Murphy Stanton's setting for the whole film is more like a disaster movie, and whether the main characters can escape and ascend to heaven in the confrontation with the evil army is the final highlight."
"Also, the stunt scenes far exceed the effect of B-grade films, and even close to the level of quasi-A-grade Zuò, which makes people who only expect to see B-grade films will be shocked, and the director is quite clever in using B-grade films to tell this story, omitting a lot of big scenes and clichéd personal heroism that are necessary at the beginning, and only focusing on the final scene and the most dramatic characters, the excitement and personality of the film are obvious!"
After writing this, Todd McCarthy checked it again, called his assistant, and handed her the manuscript, "Pass it to the Hollywood Reporter editorial office, this is my column tomorrow." ”
The female assistant took a look, the name of the film was a little unfamiliar, and when she went out, she was a little puzzled, her boss is one of the most famous film critics in the United States, and he would write a film review of this kind of little-known film in the column?
She returned to her position, first checked the film called "Horror Planet" on the Internet, and found that it was a movie produced and distributed by Miramax, and suddenly remembered that the boss seemed to have attended a party not long ago, and the initiator of the party should be the Weinstein brothers.
Every year during the awards season, the boss seems to be a supporter of Miramax, and she vaguely remembers that the name "Chicago" was frequently mentioned in the frequent correspondence between the boss and Miramax some time ago.
None of this had much to do with her, and the female assistant stood up and walked over to the fax machine, ready to send a fax to the Hollywood Reporter editorial office.
Perhaps it was the knock-on effect of the success of "Chainsaw", or perhaps the publicity of Miramax was strong enough, many professional film critics took notice of "Planet of Terror", a typical B-movie, and by the end of the day on Friday, a series of related reviews were also transmitted to the editorial offices of different print media.
Compared with the print media, which can only be published the next day, the Internet is more immediate and time-sensitive.
After watching the movie, she accompanied Claire around Hollywood Boulevard and didn't return home until the sun went below the horizon.
Entering the house, she kicked off her high heels, threw her bag on the sofa, and rushed to the computer.
She really wants to see what kind of remarks the perverted director's new perverted work has sparked on the Internet.
And as the first person to follow Murphy Stanton and his IMDB section on the Internet, Daisy frequently left messages on it, and has become one of the leaders of the discussion group of Murphy Stanton's section.
Usually, she often comes over to take a look, and now that the other party has a new movie released, of course she won't forget about it.
Open the IMDB website and find the exclusive section of Murphy Stanton, Daisy looked at the picture of Murphy Stanton on the board, one hand on the computer desk, holding up her chin, I just felt that he was still so handsome, so cool, no matter how you look at it, it is not enough......
The main reason why she can't look at it enough is that she thinks that under this cool and handsome skin, there is a perverted heart.
That's what attracts her the most.
Looking at the message board under the section, there are not many changes, as a few days ago, Murphy Stanton's attention is still relatively low, and it can't be compared with those big-name directors at all.
However, after the introduction of Murphy Stanton's work, there is already an additional name "Planet of Terror".
Click on "Horror Planet", Daisy dragged it directly down, went to look at the comment column, just glanced at it, and it was a little angry, and at the top of the comment column, there were two negative reviews that only gave one point!
"It's disgusting to see a film like this!"
"What a messy tattered film, except for disgusting exaggeration, there is really nothing to see!". (To be continued.) )
