Without personal greed, things can be much simpler

Even if the perfect blood substitute is found, the big boss will not give up on breeding humans, because there is always someone who wants real blood. Even if he finds a way to safely transform vampires into humans, the big boss will not make it public, because he wants to sell the blood substitutes and human blood that have been developed, and together, make long-term profits. The characteristics of vampires because they suck blood, go mad without blood for a long time, and go mad when they see blood, have always been an important element of horror movies before the invention of zombies. And because capitalists squeeze and suck the blood and sweat of the bottom people, vampires are also often used to symbolize capitalists who are chasing huge profits. The vampires in this film have both literal and figurative meanings. Why does this vampire film surpass its peers and even scarier than zombie films? The blood gushing out represents a great threat to people's survival, which will trigger people's instinctive fear. There are scenes of a lot of blood splashing in the film. After the outbreak of the epidemic, vampires naturally increased, and humans became less and less due to hunting and predation. Vampires have become the vast majority, human beings are on the verge of extinction, the source of human blood is in short supply, and stable human blood substitutes have not been developed for a long time. There are constantly vampires that go mad because of ischemia, and even turn into assassins. Humans, vampires, and raiders transform in sequence and fight against each other, and the whole world is like a hell on earth. At the end of the film, because he sucked the blood of the male protagonist who had been transformed back into a human and produced "antibodies", the big boss also transformed into a human and was put into the elevator to greet the soldiers who were supposed to save him. The soldiers who had been suffering from long-term ischemia saw the big boss, and the zombies bit the big boss like a siege, and even ripped off his head, and blood spattered everywhere for a while. Later, the male protagonist's younger brother, who was transformed into a human, voluntarily stayed in the process of covering his brother for the soldiers to eat, and blood was splashed. When the soldiers who ate the younger brother were transformed into human beings, the vampire soldiers on the periphery would eat the human soldiers again. The human soldiers stared blankly at the bloodstains on their hands after eating other people's hands, as if they had regained their humanity, and were then thrown down and eaten by the vampires. The entire hall suddenly became a hell on earth, like the reverse reaction of the spread of the epidemic, or the chain reaction of a nuclear explosion. It is conceivable that when the male protagonist announces the antidote and uses a safe and moderate antidote to transform vampires, the epidemic can be eliminated. At this time, the male protagonist's colleagues from the vampire period arrived, unwilling to announce the antidote, and resolved the soldiers who had been transformed at the scene. Finally, the American muscle car carrying the three protagonists drove along the highway towards the sunset, and the film ended in the male protagonist's sexy and magnetic voice: We have a cure. We can change you back.
