Or the smell just faded

Sam Remy's "Ghost Man" series, as a cult film textbook-level existence, can be called a model. When I was a child, when VCD was popular and rental discs were fashionable, I first came into contact with this movie. I had to admit that I was scared to pee, but like chili, the hotter the more spicy, the more I want to eat it. Then I watched it the second time and the third time. Urine for the second time and the third time.
As Sam Remy’s Virgo, "Ghost" has low investment and poor special effects, but Sam has made miracles with his love for movies. There are few scenes in the movie, but the director has worked hard for every shot and every soundtrack. , Which gave birth to this "Ghost Man".
Today, more than twenty years later, childhood nightmares once again appeared on the screen and appeared in front of us again in the form of TV series. The director was Sam Remy and the actor was Bruce Campbell. They were just the little meat in the movie. In the TV series, he became the uncle oil belly. The memories of childhood flooded my mind. Perhaps the past few years have gone through the nostalgic style, from the TV series version of "Take a Dawn" to "Terminator" to "Star Wars". But they didn't seem to give all the audience a satisfactory answer, but we still went to see it, and more often than not they owed them a movie ticket ten years ago. But maybe that era has passed, and making another film on today's screen does not seem to satisfy today's aesthetics.
Returning to the topic, the third part of the plot continues to further explore the necromantic world of "Ghosts". A new monster, demon, necromancer and the writer of the final boss Necromancer appear. There are not many cult shots in the TV drama version of "Ghosts", and there are no realistic dismemberment, headshots, and spurting shots in the movie, but the tomato sauce facial shots are still exciting and happy, and the old fresh meat’s American humor And the face of the standard B-level film fan continues the humorous point of the movie. From a personal point of view, the shortcomings of this drama is that it lacks the tension and horror of the movie and the smell of blood and carrion, so this is more like a magical drama with ketchup flying wild.
The bright and warm colors make the whole show very cozy, without the sense of despair brought by the darkness of the movie. Then we can't evaluate this tone change according to the original idea. If it is 100% synchronized with the movie, it is probably a bit old-fashioned. The classic overhead shots and large close-up shots are compact in plot, and within more than 20 minutes, they firmly grasp the hearts of the audience, and there is no more than a second. Compared with the movie and the drama, there is indeed a lot less visual impact and tension, and the color tone is warmer, less depressing black and white, less pen-hold shots of blood plasma and severed limbs, and the silently beaten zombie is also harmonious. , There is no longer any yellow pus on his face, and even his appearance tends to be uniform. But this is still a classic American drama, full of cult plots and the fun of B-level movies.
With so many zombie dramas, horror dramas or magical dramas today, why do we still choose to follow this drama, that is, because of the nostalgia, it may be more of the feeling of going back 20 years ago. Feel the things that made our hearts tremble or moved in those years. I really don’t care if the show surpasses the movie, or keeps the film’s compelling style.
Everyone has an image of a Terminator that i will be back in their hearts, and a new Terminator is born, so we must ask "Why do you want to shoot the Terminator like this?" "This is not my childhood memory at all. ". And I also have Ash in my heart, his image has been fixed more than ten years ago. Regardless of the play, it is a symbol of childhood about the world of horror and mystery movies.
