"Go, my goddess!"

After Jane-Eyre modified an m4 assault rifle, Ray-Eyre put it on Cherry's lap. At this moment, the former goddess became a beautiful, sexy and killing superhero.

Cherie instantly became super cool. A dancer with a broken leg was fitted with a prosthetic leg with an M4 assault rifle by her boyfriend, fighting to the death with zombies.

The audience in the theater fell into a special carnival atmosphere, this is a cool, dazzling, and attractive killing feast!

In the back row, Todd McCarthy, a film critic for The Hollywood Reporter, nods lightly. This weird film is, as advertised, really interesting.

He came here specifically to see "Planet Terror" being well received by British counterparts at the Cannes Film Festival.

On the screen, after Cherry's prosthesis was upgraded to a machine gun, she was invincible, seeing people kill people, seeing Buddhas to kill Buddhas, especially Cherry combined striptease movements with killing, dragging her machine gun to sprint, take off, and fire at high altitudes. The shots of falling to the ground and shooting are really breathtaking.

Those b-movie lovers are almost crying!

Afterwards, the heads of the zombies flew into the sky one after another, and the helicopter propellers carried out a horrific massacre of the zombies, with broken limbs, broken arms, and blood from internal organs, all splashing everywhere.

This completely pushes the atmosphere of the film to the extreme!

There was also a commotion in the movie hall. It seemed that only in this way, those b-movie lovers could vent their joy in their hearts!

This film is so straightforward, the purpose is very clear, it is to make people feel good, the focus of the film is not to create a horrible atmosphere, tormenting people's nerves, but to rely on a large amount of plasma splashing, dismembering living people, mutant zombies, beautiful women with machine guns and other stimulating scenes , let people experience the thrill of killing.

Brooke Stern is Miller Davis' partner. Unlike Miller Davis, he is a true b-movie lover. At this moment, his soul is soaring!

There are so many elements in this movie that make people excited!

Indeed, which zombie movie doesn't have a beautiful woman? It seems that in this type of film, the conflict between beauty and ugliness is more dramatic and more engaging.

But the beauty in "Planet Terror" is a bit different: one leg is a deadly automatic rifle,

With a slender figure, she can kill zombies and special forces without breathing heavily. If some orthodox writers want to write a book on "**** and violence", the stills of the heroine are suitable as the main picture.

She was a weak woman at the beginning, her name was "cherry.darling" which was extremely flamboyant, but later she was turned into an invincible goddess King Kong by zombies!

There is also the plot. Generally speaking, the plot of this type of film is really routine, but most of the plots of "Planet Terror" do not follow the rules. For example, the biochemical weapons expert confidently led everyone to prepare to grab the plane, I used to think that this guy was very strong and stylish, but he was beaten into a pussy-headed fly as soon as he showed his head... There are many similar small plots, which can not only highlight humor, but also bring surprises to people.

Of course, just like the companions around you will only pay attention to the heroine's fiery body and a few leaky *scenes, there are people who are unobtrusive, don't like to watch people who fight and kill people, and people who never listen to metal rock and roll, they don't care about zombies. People who have no interest in and have no feelings for movies, people who hate B movies, "Planet Fear" is definitely not for them.

Compared to other movie fans who were still immersed in the joyous atmosphere brought by the film's first play, Todd McCarthy was very calm. He is a professional film critic, and he contributed articles to well-known and high-status media such as "Hollywood Reporter" in the industry. I have my own judgment on any movie. Now that I have just watched the movie, I can remember all the plots in it clearly. It is the best time to write a professional movie review.

Leaving the Capstone Theater, Todd McCarthy returned directly to the studio not far away, and picked up a pen and manuscript paper as soon as he entered the office.

Although computers and typewriters have become popular, he is still used to writing manuscripts in this most traditional way.

Sitting in front of the desk, Todd McCarthy thought for a while and wrote the first line.

"It is the mediocrity of the director to make a complicated and wonderful story into a glass of plain water; it is the director's success to make a simple story exciting, exciting, funny and memorable. In this respect, Murphy-Stein "Planet Terror" under the direction of Leighton is a success!"

He stopped writing, took a sip from his water glass, and continued writing.

"I think the news from the Cannes Film Festival is not entirely true. The script of this film is very solid. It can be called the best script of any zombie film."

"The director set up a strong sense of suspense in the military base scene at the beginning of the film, and then the first third describes the relationship between the main characters. At this time, people are the center of gravity, not zombies. The middle third becomes For the confrontation between zombies and characters, this is the most important and most vulgar plot in zombie movies, such as zombies swaying slowly from a distance, the protagonist hiding everywhere, zombies jumping out of the dark to scare people, etc. , but director Murphy Stanton handled it very quickly and intensely."

"Not only are there some sappy sex scenes in this one—and, frankly, a lot of the plot lacks logic, but a B-movie doesn't need to be logical on its own—but the director clearly cut out the confluences that slow down the tempo. In the first paragraph, the attack on zombies skips unarmed combat, and directly enters such refreshing bridges as point-and-shoot headshots and car crashes."

"The last third of the plot has turned to people again, especially in the military base, which not only echoes the beginning, but also increases the difficulty of confrontation and enhances the scene effect. Success, and then massacres, directly triggering the final *scene! "

"Although this film is about zombies, the imitation of zombie films is mainly concentrated in the first two paragraphs. In a sense, the dark horror of zombie films is not the focus, and the final scene is not killing zombies like cutting melons and vegetables. Plasma all over to attract attention."

"Director Murphy Stanton's setting for the whole film is more like a disaster film structure. 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 effects of B-level movies, and even approach the level of quasi-A-level productions. This will shock people who only expect to see B-level movies, and the director uses B-level movies to tell the story. This story is also quite clever, omitting a lot of necessary big scenes and cliché personal heroism preaching in the middle of the beginning, and only focusing on the last 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 the manuscript to her, "Pass it to the editorial department of The Hollywood Reporter. This is my column tomorrow."

The female assistant glanced at it. The name of the film was a bit unfamiliar. When she went out, she was a little confused. My boss is one of the most famous film critics in the United States. How could he write a review of such a lesser-known film in the column?

She returned to her place, first checked the movie "Planet of Terror" on the Internet, and found that it was produced and distributed by Miramax, and suddenly remembered that the boss seemed to have attended a party not long ago, 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. She vaguely remembered that the name "Chicago" was frequently mentioned in the frequent letters between the boss and Miramax some time ago.

These didn't have much to do with her. The female assistant stood up and walked to the fax machine, ready to send a fax to the editorial department of "Hollywood Reporter".

Perhaps it was the knock-on effect brought about by the big sales of "Saw", or maybe Miramax's publicity was strong enough. Many professional film critics have noticed the typical B-movie "Planet Terror". As the day passed, related comments also spread to different paper media editorial departments.

Compared with paper media, which can only be published the next day, the network is more immediacy and time-sensitive.

Daisy didn't return home until the sun dipped below the horizon because she accompanied Claire for a stroll on Hollywood Boulevard after watching the movie.

After entering the house, she kicked off her high heels, threw her bag on the sofa, and rushed to the computer impatiently.

She really wanted to see what kind of comments the new abnormal work of that abnormal director caused on the Internet.

And as the first person to follow Murphy Stanton and his imdb board on the Internet, Daisy frequently left messages on it, and has become one of the leaders of the discussion group of Murphy Stanton's board.

In normal times, she would often come over to watch, and now that the other party has a new movie released, of course she will not forget it.

Open the imdb website and find the exclusive section for Murphy Stanton. Daisy looks at the picture of Murphy Stanton on the section, with one hand resting on the computer table and her chin raised, she just feels that he is still so handsome, so Cool, can't get enough of it...

The main reason why it was not enough was that she thought that under this cool and handsome skin was hiding a perverted heart.

This is what attracts her the most.

I looked at the message boards below the forum, and there wasn't much change. Like a few days ago, Murphy Stanton's attention was relatively low, and he couldn't compare with those big-name directors.

However, after the introduction of Murphy Stanton's work, there is already an additional name - "Planet Terror".

Clicking on "Planet Terror", Daisy dragged down directly to look at the comment column, and after just one glance, she became a little annoyed. At the top of the comment column, there were two negative reviews with only one point!

"It's disgusting to see a movie like this!"

"What kind of messy and tattered film, apart from disgusting and exaggerated, there is really nothing to watch!"
