If idol dramas are exclusive to fresh meat flowers, then suspense dramas are the world of the Mesozoic Era.
Although there are many young actors who have tried suspense themes in recent years, they are far from being as interesting as the suspense dramas of the Mesozoic Generation.
Take the recent hit dramas as an example, whether it is "Sandstorm" with a rating of 7.0, or "Chessman" with a score of 0, and "Above the Dark Clouds", which has just started, they are all remarkable.
The actors and actresses of the Mesozoic generation work together, and the young descendants are not opponents at all.
And next, another 18-episode suspense drama "Hanging Mirror" of the Mesozoic Era is coming, and it will be launched in the middle of this month.
Just look at the trailer and know that it has the potential to be a hit.
The suspense theme takes the murder case as the starting point, which has become a routine, and large-scale corpse crushing cases and serial murder cases are not unusual.
The beginning of "Hanging Mirror" uses a similar setting, on a fierce rainy night, multiple female corpses are found in the sewers, and the two police officers work together to investigate the truth of the case.
But the real attraction of "Hanging Mirror" is not in the corpse crushing case, but an ancient evil ritual for the purpose of immortality hidden behind the corpse crushing case.
That's right, there is finally a domestic drama that combines horror and suspense.
In the past, there were not no suspense dramas with strange ambitions in the Chinese drama market, such as "Tang Dynasty Legends" and "Soul Ferryman", all of which were of the same type.
But these works are either set in ancient times or add fantasy settings, which are a little less realistic than what is happening in front of you.
"Hanging Mirror" is set in modern times, rainy nights, sewers, women, just the combination of these images, it is creepy, after all, either one is too close to our lives.
What's even more frightening is that with the in-depth investigation by the police, the suspect behind the case turned out to be a seemingly harmless young Kochi woman.
When seeing that female victims instinctively associate themselves with men, "Hanging Mirror" once again breaks the stereotypes of audiences.
But the murderer is likely to be a young Kochi woman, who makes people's scalps tingle even more, and a murderer who seems impossible to commit murder and will not write bad words on his face.
The more this is the case, the more panicked it is, after all, as long as she is chosen, she is likely to die defenselessly, and substituting it into real life will undoubtedly make every woman get goosebumps.
And the trailer also amplifies the weird and terrifying highlights of this drama, someone burns incense in the dark environment, someone uses candles to illuminate, and when the police are investigating the case, there will be a figure suddenly flashing behind them.
It can only be said that "Suspense Mirror" is different from previous suspense dramas, and the audience needs to be fully psychologically prepared.
is also eye-catching is the cast of this show, there are no traffic stars, almost all of them are Mesozoic actors, which can be described as unprecedentedly powerful.
The first place, Ren Dahua.
Anyone who has watched "Manslaughter 2" will know how well Ren Dahua is suitable for the suspense theme.
This time in "Hanging Mirror", he played one of the policemen responsible for investigating the corpse crushing case, just looking at Ren Dahua's state in the trailer, you can feel that he is a professional and keen senior policeman.
Ren Dahua's level of drama bones is at the level of Dinghai Shenshen in the play.
After all, before entering the drama circle, most of the works he starred in were big-screen works, and almost all of the actors who played against him were actor-level actors, and their strength was quite strong.
second place, Zhu Yuchen.
There are not many actors in the entertainment industry who feel pity, and Zhu Yuchen is one of them.
When he was young, he became popular in "Struggle" directed by Zhao Baogang and "Who Calls the Shots in My Youth", and he was a popular novel with fame and acting skills, but in recent years, he has either played a supporting role or "disappeared".
Zhu Yuchen, who was born in a professional class, can be said to be acting like something, if he can maintain his popularity at the peak of his career, he must have become the top of the uncle circle now.
This time in "Hanging Mirror", he and Ren Dahua played the double male leads, playing the image of a policeman, and looking at the appearance and temperament, it makes people feel very immersed.
It depends on whether Zhu Yuchen can seize the opportunity of "Hanging Mirror" and return to the top.
The third place, Zhang Lingxin.
is also a low-key powerhouse.
Many viewers met Zhang Lingxin through "The First Half of My Life", but in fact, she has starred in "Langya Bang", "Parents' Love" and other works one after another, and she can also be seen in the suspense dramas "Out of Court" and "The Beginning" in recent years.
Among them, Zhang Lingxin starred in the dark horse suspense drama "Bone Language" series, the case has a scale, and it is also very socially discussed, and Zhang Lingxin can also support the heroine steadily.
In "Hanging Mirror", Zhang Lingxin challenges the image of a female doctor of archaeology, which also gives people a feeling of concentration and professionalism, and she will not go wrong in this role.
fourth place, Sun Hao.
As a cross-border king of golden songs, Sun Hao's acting skills are far underestimated by everyone.
After watching his performances in "Sweeping the Black Storm", "Our Days", and "I Am a Criminal Policeman", it must be hard to believe that he is a singer, because the good guys and bad guys are completely stress-free.
Sun Hao's awesomeness lies in the fact that he has a public face, and he can always play the role with a sense of relaxation and life, without any traces of performance.
To be precise, he and Wang Baoqiang's performance mode is the same way.
In "Hanging Mirror", the role he plays is still unknown, but it is evil that is equally familiar to him.
fifth, Liu Lin.
Among the actresses of the Mesozoic Generation, Liu Lin is the one whose audience popularity and national popularity continue to rise.
Most of the audience was deeply impressed by her supporting role in the hit drama, in fact, as early as the age of 26, Liu Lin had already won the actress.
It's just that when people reach middle age, there is not much room left for the development of Mesozoic actresses, and Liu Lin can only play supporting roles.
But as the saying goes, gold will always shine, and Liu Lin, who has survived in the past few years, has gradually become an irreplaceable existence in the circle.
conclusion
It is worth mentioning that the director of this drama is Hu Yaozhi.
He is the current president of the Beijing Film Academy, has been an actor and a director, and has frequently appeared in film and television dramas in recent years, and the "Bone Language" series starring Zhang Lingxin is from him.
He and Zhang Lingxin also have a relationship - husband and wife.
In "Hanging Mirror", the husband and wife work together again, and the theme is still the suspense genre they are very good at, and the audience must be conquered by the husband and wife again.
Are you looking forward to the show?
