The first trailer for the upcoming anthology recently appeared online. "Septet: The Story of Hong Kong" (Septet: The Story of Hong-Kong), which we already told you about told.
Recall "Septet" is a Hong Kong unfinished project that could not find its way to a mass audience for more than four years. The main feature of the anthology is the fact that each of the eight episodes of the film was shot by a famous Chinese director: Ann Hui (“Stuntwoman”), Patrick Tam ("Love Massacre") Johnny To (Election trilogy), Tsui Hark (Once Upon a Time in China franchise) Sammo Hung ("Old Bodyguard") Yuen Woo-Ping ("Drunken Master") and died in 2018 Ringo Lam (“Dragon Twins”), who initially oversaw the project.
The anthology will tell the stories of different people in different decades, from the 50s to the present. All these stories will take place in Hong Kong.
As many thought, the stories filmed Sammo Hoon и Yuen Woo-Ping are directly related to martial arts.
The roles of “Septet” were entirely stars: Simon Yam ("Bullet in the Head") Yuen Wa ("Eastern Condors") Timmy Hungg ("New Police Story"), Francis Ng ("Warriors' Gate") Lam Suet (“Showdown in the style of kung fu”), Chun Tat-Ming ("The Accidental Spy") Lawrence Lau ("Thunder Cops") Emotion Chun (“Chasing the Dream”) and Sir Ma (“Ip Man: Birth of a Legend”).
The film is scheduled to premiere at the 25th Busan International Film Festival. When "Septet" will appear in theaters – it is still unknown.
Genre director from Taiwan Wang Yifan (TV series “Ghosts”) worked mainly on horror films, but the words “action” and “comedy” can be attached to his new project.
We are talking about a comedy zombie horror called "Get out from here!" (Get the Hell Out), in which the creators promise hand-to-hand combat. Well... it happens. For example, we can remember "Zombie Fight Club" (2014) and "Zombie Apocalypse" (2018)
Synopsis: An outbreak of a mysterious virus has struck the Taiwanese parliament and almost all officials have turned into bloodthirsty zombies. An ordinary clerk and secretary must save themselves and those who have not yet contracted the virus.
The following took part in the film: Megan Lai ("Silence"), Bruce Hong ("Sad story"), Tuo Zonghua ("Bromance") Francesca Cao (TV series "Ghosts") and others.
The film was released in its home country 14 August 2020 year. We just have to wait for the online release.
Let's finish today's selection of trailers with another South Korean project for online cinemas called "A real fighter" (Real Fighter).
The film was directed Kim Chung-sik who already has a crime comedy behind him "Devil" (2012)
The story revolves around Tae Sung, a professional mixed martial arts fighter who is about to make his UFC debut. But in a spontaneous fight in a store, the guy is maimed by an unfamiliar martial artist, after which Tae-sung is disqualified. After all these events, the guy falls into depression, from which his younger sister Hyuna and coach BJ try to pull him out. Everything changes dramatically when the main character finds out that the fighter who deliberately injured him in the store is a champion of illegal battles, where real money bets are placed on the fighters. Now Tae Sung has a goal - to take revenge on his offender and win the underground “Bloody Street” tournament.
