People pursued immortality. In the Qin Dynasty, Xu Fu went east to seek elixir of immortality. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, alchemy became popular... Later, I gradually realized that immortality was just a dream, and to live as long as possible became a more pragmatic pursuit of people. Boldly imagine that if you become a vampire, then you will live forever, at the cost of not seeing the sun and drinking blood... Would you like it, I'm not willing, although the vampires in "Four Hundred Years", "Twilight" and other films are very young Beautiful faces, life stops at the most splendid moment, but because they do not have the threat of death that most people fear, they also gradually lose the wonderful life brought by the diverse emotional experience. You have to act in a hurry, infinite repetition, numbness and dryness will eventually wear away people's passion, just like Edward said in "Blood Dawn" that he has passed his 35th birthday.
I can understand very well that at the opening of "Bloodthirsty Dawn", a girl burns herself in the sun, and immortality will make people never have fun, it is better to die. This is a very special vampire film. In 2019, it is the world of vampires, blood is in short supply, and the only remaining humans are either fleeing or being raised—as a tool for blood production. Where do vampires go, where do humans go, they are all thinking. Some ghosts become human because of the joy of begging. Some people become ghosts because they seek eternal life for ghosts.
Edward in the film works for a blood company and is engaged in research on blood substitutes. He has a kind heart that ordinary vampires lack. Whether it is a human or a ghost, there are certain abnormality, and these abnormality often make us survive in desperation. He hates his life, and he understands that the research on substitutes cannot fundamentally save the lack of blood resources. The only way to solve it is to fundamentally change the genes of vampires and make them human. But when a person becomes a ghost, he only needs a light kiss on the neck. When a ghost becomes a man, he must go through the fire of purgatory. Falling is always relatively easy.
The life of driving ghosts into a desperate situation makes the doomsday plot in the film to the extreme - is this the eternal life we want! Eternal life is also an end. Just like us today, we enjoy the benefits brought by technology, but also suffer the negative consequences brought by development. I'm not a nostalgic, but I hate a world occupied by reason, the unrestricted pursuit of material things makes some people give up the principle of being the most basic of human beings, a life without soul, and a vampire . When the theory of vampires in this world is dominated by the theory, people are just a group of living dead, and as in the film, they cannibalize each other and only have desires.
The ending of "Bloodthirsty Dawn" is almost cruel. A vampire can turn into a human, that is, to suck the blood from a ghost to a human. It seems that labor pains are inevitable, and people always have to pay for their mistakes.
