up the novelty of the effect of the audience are greatly affected by the fall. The film was released at the box office more than ten million, although Lin Zhengying regardless of cost, excellence failed to make a profit, but opened the Hong Kong filmmakers to re-examine the idea of local zombie movies. After the 1990's, the Hong Kong zombie movie has been exhausted again set off a creative fervor, the trend of western style eastward trend is also getting stronger and stronger. The first shot of the 1990 zombie movie, is with Lin Zhengying *** with the Hong family class of Qian Yue-sheng, Chen Huiyi, the two co-operation of the "Ghost Hunting" named "catching ghosts", in fact, "collection of zombies", there is a ghost, but is a faithful and loyal "There is a ghost, but it is a loyal ghost servant. The most creative part of the movie is the beginning of modern scientific instruments to zombie experiments, originally very interesting, but unfortunately not in-depth, and ultimately only reduced to a small gimmick only. Lam Ching-ying in this year also made a "exorcism police", from the early civil war to modern times, along the model of Liu Chun-wei "ghosts and demons" in the police partner and the demonic fighting, but still playing the Maoshan art, is a kind of Maoshan zombie film and police partner to solve the case of the two major genres of the film synthesized. As for Lau Chun-wai, who specializes in mixing Chinese and Western cultures, in his later film "The Corpse Family", it seems that he has taken lessons from the local traditional zombie films and interspersed them with the plot of stealing treasures, but in essence, he is using zombie themes to flirt with politics. The zombie in the movie is actually the first emperor of Qin Shi Huang, and he is still as arrogant as he was when he was alive. A group of people pretending to be Jing Ke and Wang Zhao Jun on stage, singing nonsense, intending to get close to the Qin corpse and then destroy it, full of banter, is really the best expression of the comedy style of Liu Zhenwei! The fact seems to be exactly the same, and look at the late 90s to the beginning of the new century, the Hong Kong screen is similar to the zombie movie "biochemical zombie" (directed by Yip Wai Shun) and "biochemical police zombie mission" (directed by Cheng Wai Man) and other films, but the main plot of their imitation of the Japanese video game "Resident Evil", as for the what biochemical zombie, zombie are also imported, mainly by the virus infection! The zombies are also imported, mainly infected by viruses, and are hideous, ferocious and scary, or can be compared with the local Chinese zombies, but strictly speaking, there is no connection with zombie movies. In the television screen, ATV after the death of Lin Zhengying, give up the production of traditional folklore "Zombie Roadmaster", turn to shoot a completely borrowed from the Western blood-sucking zombie family system of modern psychic drama "I have a date with a zombie", the plot is a combination of East and West, the theme of the previous completely entertaining zombie film has a deeper meaning, to talk about love and salvation, combined with the production of a good, excellent performances, and the result is a big hit, and even the ATV's arch rival, TVB boss Run Run Shaw! Even ATV's nemesis, TVB's boss Run Run Shaw, graciously praised "I Have a Date with a Zombie" for its good looks. But despite this, the show began to decline in ratings in its second installment, and the zombie theme of "West Wind, East Wind" was not extended to the big screen.

About Master Lam Ching-ying, many children and young people have seen his films, but many children and even young people don't know that he is often seen in many zombie films. the name of one or two people they often see in many zombie movies. But people who know his name, are trying to do for their favorite master to help others recall and publicity. A 15-year-old netizen with the screen name "Banned Bitch" (abbreviation) once made a profound remark: "For us after 90s, most of our friends have seen Uncle Ying's movies on TV at a very young age. At that time, we only knew that there was a master who often appeared in zombie movies and felt close to us at first glance. When I grew up, the impression of zombie movies in the past years has been covered by the color of life, but, probably because of fate, I happened to see these movies again, which are not unfamiliar, but I definitely do not remember. And just after that, just because of those affinities, those faces, and some indescribable vigor that this master possessed, it made me go searching for information about this master. But I got a result that I could not accept: the master, who seemed to be older in the movie, was only 45 years old. At this point, regret and doubt were intertwined with many emotions and experienced to the fullest. This netizen has spoken the minds of many contemporary people, and people who will watch Lin Zhengying's movies in the future. It can be seen that Master Lin Zhengying's movies and personality show the charm. And after the death of Master Lin Zhengying, many friends have asked whether there are videos, records, etc. and some questions about why the cemetery is not publicized. And some about why not publicize the address of the cemetery .... And about these questions, have not found there is a particularly real reason, but here is 1 answer we can also get the answer about many questions from it: "Therefore, before he was born, he had asked his family not to disclose his condition to the outside world, and more than a month before he died, endured the pain of his girlfriend Yuan Qiongdan break up, and even more so in the dying week, Lin Zhengying to his own sick face horror for the sake, refused to fellow masters and brothers and children, and the children's daughter. Refused to fellow teachers and brothers and children to the hospital to visit the dying refused to see their children "for the master's report is also very little is the recording of the interview is also only once, not to mention the master's death of the video." So, about Lin Zhengying master more information, we can join some groups, organizations, and find some more useful information. And try to publicize and as words and information.
Editing the characteristics of the film
One of the characteristics of Lin Zhengying's ghost films is horror, this love throughout each movie this is the difference between Lin's films and other horror films that are purely based on scaring people. Plot driven by emotion, emotionally moving, then intentionally moving, intentionally moving, the idea of moving, evil thoughts for the use of ghosts and gods, so Lin's movie ghosts appear quite in line with the traditional concepts of the country's ghosts and gods of the police, and thus the real, the real horror is the most people are afraid of, the fear of the people's heart. This is the most successful thing of Lin Zhengying, he is good at using the fear hidden in the blood of the nation to create fear, this means is very clever, I'm afraid it is also the most successful place of all the successful horror movies. Another feature of Lin's movies is their vulgarity. Most of the characters played by Lin Zhengying are Taoist priests, wearing Taoist robes and holding a mahogany sword is his classic image. But this Taoist priest is often far from the image of the hero of the high and mighty, he is often a secular person, or a secular citizen, he is greedy for money, he loves to take advantage of small gains, love of face, sometimes confused, and sometimes a little bit of color. He despises foreign religions from the bottom of his heart, and he runs into other churches to play pranks, completely lacking the tolerant temperament of a high priest. This image makes him close to the real life so that he has no distance from the audience so that the characters he portrays often make people seem to live in the blur around us, he pinched knuckles and chanting spells in the film, although a little exaggerated, but basically restored the reality of goddesses and goddesses commonly used in the set of door-to-door which goes back to the above, this real convincing, listening to the wind knocking on the windowpane as heard the sound of ghosts. After watching the movie can also think along the lines of the movie, such as the scene, such as to see their ghosts, really is the highest enjoyment of watching ghost movies, if you can say "enjoy" words.
Edited for character impact.
In Hong Kong's zombie movies, many movie stars have played the role of "Taoist masters", such as Chung Fat, Chan Yau, Zheng Zeshi, Wu Yiuhan, and even the famous writer Ni Kuang, who played the role. But in terms of the most popular, the most shot, it is Lin Zhengying "one eyebrow, cold humor, quick hands, even drawing spells are stylish and stylish," the image of thatched-roof Taoist master is the most y rooted in the hearts of the people. As a representative of the Hong Kong zombie movie, Lam Ching-ying on the zombie film, which has made its own reputation for the subject matter is indeed also fond of, for it to pay a lot of effort. Therefore, when Hong Kong's traditional Maoshan zombie film because of the many followers of the work of repeated imitation of no innovation, and gradually lost the audience, Lam Ching-ying in order to avoid Hong Kong zombie movie exhaustion, cut off their own way of life, filming such films in the effort to ensure that no loss of local folklore interest, but also began to actively incorporate the Western vampire and zombie Hong Kong zombie film, he directed and starred in 1989, "One Eyebrow Taoist Man", "One Eyebrow Taoist Man", is the first time that he directed and starred in a Hong Kong zombie film, "One Eyebrow Taoist Man".
It is the best example of "combining the local and the foreign", the movie not only changed the folk saying of "raising ghosts" to "raising small zombies", but the Taoist priest and the small zombies actually love each other as father and son, *** and fight against each other! **The movie not only changes the folk saying of "raising ghosts" to "raising small zombies", the Taoist master and the small zombies actually love each other as father and son, * * * with the enemy! And boldly cited Western blood-sucking zombies, to a Chinese and Western war, the film's most hilarious novelty is that the Maoshan art can not lower Western zombies, one eyebrow Taoist helpless under the use of explosives blast, but still can not be effective, and ultimately it is the use of mire to trap the Western zombies, before the great success. The whole "One Eyebrow Taoist" is hilarious and exciting, the Taoist master of Maoshan and Christians "chicken and duck", Maoshan magic and Western zombies fighting together with the novelty of the effect of the audience were greatly affected by the fall. The film was released after the box office over ten million, although because of Lin Zhengying regardless of cost, excellence failed to make a profit, but opened up the Hong Kong filmmakers to re-examine the local zombie movie ideas. After the 1990's, the Hong Kong zombie movie has been exhausted again set off a creative fervor, the trend of western style eastward trend is also getting stronger and stronger. The first shot of the 1990 zombie movie, is with Lin Zhengying *** with the Hong family class of Qian Yue-sheng, Chen Huiyi, the two co-operation of the "Ghost Hunting" named "catching ghosts", in fact, "collection of zombies", there is a ghost, but is a faithful and loyal "There is a ghost, but it is a loyal ghost servant.

The zombie in the movie is actually the first emperor of Qin Shi Huang, and he is still as arrogant as he was when he was alive. A group of people in the stage pretending to be Jing Ke, Wang Zhaojun nonsense singing, the intention of close to the Qin corpse and then destroy the bridge, full of banter, is really the best reflection of the comedy style of Liu Zhenwei! In fact, if we talk about Hong Kong's zombie films will be the most absurd combination of folk traditions and Western blood-sucking zombies, should be the first to Lu Jianming's "Zombie Doctor". The film from the doctor Lin Bao-yi in England and the female vampire Chen Yalun in the one-night stand was bitten, and then returned to Hong Kong gradually show the symptoms of the Western vampire: such as fear of sunlight, voracious patients blood, like to wear a black cloak, and even sleep at night, such as bats hanging upside down on the sorghum and so on, good thing that the vampire and the power of the female vampire will be cured him. What is expected at this time the vampire count arrived in Hong Kong, so the people and its hospital to start a bloodbath, see the time of invincibility, Lin Bao-yi and other three male doctors were even Liu, Guan, Zhang Shu Han three masters possessed, and ultimately defeated the Western blood-sucking zombies! When I saw this, I had to admire the scriptwriter's imagination, but the audience didn't seem to buy the absurdity of the movie, which was simply for the sake of being funny. In contrast, the vampire movie produced by DePaul is completely westernized Lin Zhengying (from the image of the exorcist police)
One Bite OK is the most popular zombie movie in 1990, the vampire played by Lin Zixiang, Count Lee, is in an old castle in Europe, dressed in a black gown, such as the aristocratic vampires of the Western Gothic literature, generally elegant, the plot of the film is also blood-sucking, there is a thriller, a vicious fight, and romance, rather than a vampire, but also a vampire. The plot of the movie is also blood-sucking, thrilling, fighting and romantic, which is quite similar to the Western vampire movie, but with less scary atmosphere. This and the previous Hong Kong zombie films only care about copying and blindly grafted, but never pay attention to Western vampires and zombies originally have a fundamentally different approach, can be called Hong Kong zombie film to internationalization close to a bold attempt. Although the creation of Hong Kong zombie movies in 1990 showed a diversified pattern, some even completely abandoned the traditional formula of the local Maoshan arts, but in general, the reflection is not as satisfactory. Too many crude makes the audience on this kind of subject matter has begun to tire of indifference, coupled with Wang Jing's gambling films and later Tsui Hark's martial arts films began to take off, movie studios, have changed to shoot gambling films and martial arts films to go, a time when the extremely popular zombie subject matter that few people dare to involve again. In fact, at this time, the zombie movie has indeed been difficult to return, the poor only left Lin Zhengying alone to support the situation, although again made such as "African Monk" this set of Maoshan magic, exotic customs, comedy business card "God is also crazy" African natives, as well as good zombie ancestor of the African giants and so on a lot of wonderful bridge creative work, but ultimately powerless to return to the sky. Therefore, after this work whether it is a return to the local Maoshan zombie film "Zombie Supreme", "Mr. New Zombie", "Music Zombie", "Xiangxi Zombie King", or such as "A Bite of OK" as a complete imitation of Western vampire films "a house of whistling ghosts of the teeth" are inevitably one after another at the box office defeat - to be in 1993, RTHK To 1993, Hong Kong and Taiwan to follow the martial arts film boom when the Hong Kong zombie film is completely in a desperate situation. However, as the saying goes: a hundred-footed insect, die hard. the mid-1990s, although the zombie theme is nearly extinct in Hong Kong on the big screen, but in the television screen continues to "survive", and this is still thanks to the "zombie Taoist priest" Lin Zhengying's From 1995 to 1997, he cooperated with ATV to shoot "Zombie Taoist" series of episodes, the ratings are very satisfactory, so that he saw the embodiment of the local folklore interest of the Maoshan zombie film is still a big market. Who knows that just when Lin Zhengying wanted to make further efforts, ready to take over the third part of the "Zombie Taoist", but due to liver cancer died in 1997. This usually low-profile "honest man" (in the words of Alan Choi), the news of his death was announced, the Hong Kong film industry were shocked, and while deploring the situation, they could not help but lament that Hong Kong since the "Mr. Zombie" since the creation of the use of local stunts and kung-fu acrobatics can create amazing visual effects, and has a dark comedy style of Mau Shan zombie film, I am afraid that after the death of Lam Ching-ying, it is really The movie will be lost after the death of Lin Ching-ying.
Edit causes of death
Died of liver cancer in 1997, all because of the good wine in his life, pity pity! As the saying goes, God is jealous of talent, good people short life, Lin Zhengying life trials and tribulations, 45 years old, just got a confidante, but ultimately due to end-stage liver cancer quickly passed away in November 1997, when the time. Because Lin Zhengying has always been low-profile, and do not want to suffer from a terminal illness because of the "sympathy", so after learning of his own illness to his girlfriend Yuan Qiongdan proposed to break up, even though Yuan is willing to leave, but Lin Zhengying is unwilling to involve her, so he moved out of the two live together, moved to his sister's home alone to recuperate. Although Lin Zhengying fight for many years in the movie industry, but he really familiar with only a few years ago to learn the theater brothers Dong Wei, Meng Hai, Zun Long, as well as Sammo Hung and a few other people. But even if they are also from the newspaper only learned that Lin Zhengying sick news, when Zun Long happened to be in Hong Kong, had wanted to visit him in the hospital, but was rejected by him, because Lin Zhengying consciously too horrible disease, even his children refused to see it. After Lam Ching-ying's death, he did not use Taoist rituals to send a funeral, but used Buddhist rituals to hold a funeral. Zombie Master Part 2" is his last work, originally the drama in the hit after the intention to shoot the third part, who knew that master Lin but at this time got incurable disease. Since then, the Hong Kong film industry "zombie movie" legend will really go to another world.
