The earth was radiated by a large swath of cosmic dust storms across the border, so that the dead buried in the ground crawled out of the tombs and turned into terrible zombies with human flesh, spreading horror and disasters. Humans rose up to resist, and gradually discovered the trick to deal with zombies (smashing the zombie on the head) and took the initiative. Then mankind invented the "domestication collar". Wearing a zombie would stop eating people and become obedient servants. So a company that collects, manages, rents and sells zombies-the zombie company-came into being. The zombie company not only conducts commercial activities, but to a large extent it has also become a quasi-government organization of a combination of military and government.
Because of the role of the collar, the coexistence of zombies and humans can be considered a joy. As a slave, the presence and number of zombies have also become a symbol of the status of a person or a family. So the Robinsons, the only family in Willard without a zombie servant, finally ushered in their first, and the family gradually began to change. The zombie became friends with Timmy because he ran away the classmate who bullied Timmy, the son of the Robinson family, and Timmy named him "Fido" (Fido).
Unfortunately, the performance of the collar is not very stable. While playing in the park, "Waste City" helped Timmy pick up the ball, but the neighbor's old lady thought she offended her, and beat him violently. As a result, the collar failed. "Waste City" ate the old lady without hesitation. In order to protect the "dead city" from being captured, Timmy came to the park alone with a shovel in the middle of the night. When he met an old lady who had become a zombie, Timmy did not hesitate to chop off her head with a shovel. And buried the body under the flower bed.
There are a lot of sudden violence and bloody scenes in the movie, which conflicts with the nostalgic style of a peaceful town in the 1950s and 1960s. It seems absurd, but it is more in line with the ideal reality. There was Timmy's mother behind, who gave a few zombie children who bullied her son with a pistol without hesitation (sorry, the word "without hesitation" was repeated again), and the corpses were destroyed. This is not about the identity of the other party as a zombie, but about the decisiveness to protect the loved ones and friends. (Sometimes doing things according to the rules is annoying or even killing people. This is why people often fantasize about the appearance of knights and heroes who are outside the law. It seems to be a bit off topic.) At the end of the film, in order to save the "waste" "Du", another zombie riot was triggered. This chaotic world no longer needs high-sounding justice. Shooting when it's time to shoot (whether it's a human or a zombie) is one of the features of the film, and it's also an interesting point. In addition, behind the scenes are all hints and satires about the problems of guns and the proliferation of violence in reality.
Another wonderful aspect of the film is that it portrays a group of people with different personalities and deepens the color of the film itself through comparison and changes.
The protagonist Timmy is a child who has not yet been invaded by this world. He has distinct loves and dislikes. He wants to know more about the world, but is confused by the various behaviors of adults. His simple and direct questions often leave self-deceiving adults speechless. The little actor who plays Timmy is somewhat similar to the famous child star Macaulay King in the past. Timmy's father is a weak and boring person, which may have something to do with the shadow of his father who killed himself and became a zombie when he was a child. So for your own survival, you must refrain from downplaying your emotions and keep a distance from the people around you, lest you can't do anything at a critical moment. Perhaps because of his weak personality, he couldn't be truly ruthless, and finally he was brave enough to save his son. My mother is an independent and independent housewife. Not only does she have the above-mentioned performance, she also has subtle emotions with the lovely Mr. "Destroyed City". The role of the mother is the famous "hacker girl" Carrie-Ann Moss, who is quite feminine in this film.
Corresponding to the Robinsons is the Bottoms family. Husband is a famous "anti-corpse" hero. Now he is the security director of a zombie company. He is completely "ironless" and ruthless. He is the same to his family. This is much better than Timmy's father. In the end, she was bitten by the "abandoned capital" and became her daughter's zombie servant (retribution). The wife didn't describe much, she was an obedient housewife, and Timmy's mother taught her how to say no to men. The daughter and Timmy are classmates, another type of precocious maturity, but this maturity is not an inheritance of adults, not the kind of annoying eldest lady, but used to deal with and reciprocate adults. She also helped Timmy a lot.
There is a special Mr. Theopolis among the neighbors. He was expelled from the zombie company because he fell in love with a zombie lady, Tammy. He knows a lot about zombie management and the inside story of zombie companies. He said that the original intention of the person who invented the zombie collar was because his wife had become a zombie and wanted to keep her with her. Although this is only a sentence in the dialogue, it is quite important information. An invention, a technology, being applied or exploited, often completely deviates from the original intention, from service to slavery, and some become very scary (for example, weapons).
As for zombies, it seems that they should be redefined. They are no longer simple walking dead, but will have feelings and even emotions. Of course, one thing is still very important. Their performance has a lot to do with how their owners or human friends treat them. "Destroyed Capital" is certainly one of the representatives. He will bite selectively, like to smoke, be loyal to Timmy, and will have human emotions towards the hostess and the newborn baby. The appearance and body language of the film "Dead City" are very similar to those of comedians in early silent films.
And Miss Tammy will be angry because Mr. Theopolis said the wrong thing, and the two of them will kiss (I don't know if this is the first real kiss between a human and a zombie on the screen). There is also a very interesting detail. At night, the "destroyed city" was chained in the yard. He looked up and saw Mr. Theopolis and Miss Tammy next door having fun, while looking at the Robinson's house, a normal human husband and wife There was no movement, which made people sigh.
Well, the report is over.
