Leinwandliebe Film Talk

Ich glaube, ich muß das morgen noch mal lesen.

Ab heute als HK-BR:

Tamagotchi (1997)

Directed by Wellson Chin (The Inspector Wear Skirts), Tamagotchi has little to do with its English title, but it does have many of the hallmarks of 90s low-budget Hong Kong horror. The film stars comedian-turned-actor Dayo Wong, who appeared in a fair number of horror films in his early days before becoming box office king. Of course, horror icon Law Lan is in the film, along with Ruby Wong and child star Mandy Wong:
Tingting (Mandy Wong), whose family runs a coffin shop, has been absent from school for many days. Teacher Tsui (Law Lan) visits her home and finds the girl's family members all dead in shocking manner. Social worker Sam (Ruby Wong) follows up on the case for Tingting, who has stopped talking and shows signs of severe abuse. Police officer Man (Dayo Wong) arranges for his girlfriend Sam to meet with the traumatized Tsui to try to understand the situation. Bizarre incidents occur one after another. It seems like everyone around Tingting dies...

Please elaborate.

Das Bild zeigt eine Hand, die eine DVD-Box hält. Die Box hat den Titel "Iron Angels" und zeigt ein Cover mit drei Personen in Action-Posen. Eine Person hält eine Pistole, eine andere einen Bogen mit Pfeil. Die Farben des Covers sind in einem retro-ähnlichen Stil gehalten, mit einem Mix aus Blau-, Beige- und Rottönen. Auf der Seite der Box steht in großen schwarzen Buchstaben "IRON ANGELS" und darunter in kleineren grauen Buchstaben "天使行動", was auf Chinesisch "Engel in Aktion" bedeutet. Die Hand, die die Box hält, hat ein Tattoo auf dem Unterarm mit den Zahlen "1 2 3 4 5".

Die Box sagt allerdings IRON ANGELS I-III.

Das solltest Du zukünftig immer so beschreiben, Munin. Vor allem die wörtliche Übersetzung des chinesischen Originaltitels. Die eine Person hält aber eine Armbrust in der Hand und nicht Pfeil und Bogen.

Die drei Teile sollen aber „nur“ auf DVD herauskommen?

Glaube du solltest dir mal von Nahaufnahme die Wunder (und Verfehlungen) von KI erklären lassen

Nope. BDs.

HERO habe ich schon seit ein paar Jahren. Die japanische BD mit englischen Untertiteln und O-Ton. Qualität ist erstklassig. Wenn das Ding hier auch so wird, dann zugreifen.

Kennt jemand den anderen Film?

HERO kommt noch von einem westlichen Label. Also wer nicht nur eine Barebones-Scheibe will. BROAD DAYLIGHT ist ein graues Sozialdrama, dem angesichts der Schwemme ähnlicher Filme in den letzten Jahren einfach Profil fehlt, wenn auch gut gemeint.

Wenn du diese Obdachlosen - Filme meinst, dann schau ich lieber den hier.
Besser gut gemeint als schlecht gemeint.
