About Zhong Kui Subdues Demons
Every thousand years, there will be solar eclipses and celestial phenomena, and at that time, the Kunlun Mountains will have the weakest spiritual power and the most Yin Chi. At this time, the Kunlun Mountain Magic Well was opened, magic energy poured out, and ten thousand demons were dispatched. The demons may possess ordinary people, suck the yang energy of human beings at night, and the people who are eroded are strange and cruel; Horror and supernatural events continue, you and I are indistinguishable from human beings and demons, and the world is as gloomy and terrifying as hell. Zhong Kui, a scholar of Zhongnan Mountain, was not afraid of evil, and worked with his master to slay demons and eliminate demons, but found that behind the demons, there were more amazing, more terrifying, and more difficult truths waiting for him...
Directed by Wang Xiaoze, Zhong Kui Subdues Demons leans on a strong ensemble — Wang Yige, Qi Ge, Ye Changqing — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2022.
