    Character Evaluation

    In the movie "Undead", the two brothers Michael Spierig and Peter Spierig have a style of excellence. In the movie "Daybreakers", the unique black humorous zombie style of Michael Spierig and Peter Spierig is continued. Moreover, Michael Spierig and Peter Spierig are keen on blood splattering, horrible zombie horror themes, but the processing method is very different from ordinary American B-level movies. They are good at adding their own unique humor and blood to the bloody picture. Ironic effects, such as the killings in "Undead" and the big baggage at the end, the story setting and several key transitions of "Daybreakers" are even more cunning and witty, full of postmodern irony .
