What I am sharing with you today is a relatively unconventional zombie film, "The Third Wave". The infected who took the "antidote" returned to society, but were rejected by their families and relatives, and were strictly monitored and controlled by the government army.

This medicine is still incomplete. Many of the healed people who returned to normal society in the first wave have committed suicide, perhaps because they could not stand the side effects of the medicine—that is, the memories of monsters who wantonly and cruelly harm humans will never be forgotten. If not, the nightmares of each night will deeply torment those who are healed, so they choose to commit suicide. Of course, the rejection, fear, and even torture of the healed by normal people destroys the willpower of the healed.

People expressed great dissatisfaction and fear for the families who received the healed, scolding, yelling, and splashing paint to cover up their fear of the healed. Normal people are afraid of the recovered infected person, and the cured person is not afraid of the normal person pointing and pointing, and both sides are haggard.

To give the cured people the freedom on the surface, but also to restrict their freedom, work, entertainment, travel, all under the control of the government, have to shamelessly show their symptoms. They who originally had high-level occupations could only be forced to become cleaners and security guards, and even when they were reprimanded for "what qualifications", they were powerless to refute.

By the way, the heroine looks familiar. It turned out to be the wolf hunter girl in "Hard Candy". She looks very strong as a first-time mother, and she looks beautiful as a female reporter who works hard.

When it is discovered that the drug-resistant people will not have a violent appetite for the cured, you can guess that something interesting will happen. Knowing that nearly 5,000 drug-resistant people will be eliminated, this news is very surprising. After eliminating the drug-resistant people, is the next step to eliminate the cured ones? This conclusion is self-evident.

It is impossible to sit still, so a so-called "healing coalition" was established to interfere with the government's elimination plan and artificially blamed several fires on the anti-curing group. Since normal people cannot accept recovered people, they have to eliminate normal people. Eliminating dissidents is the plan to save lives.

Abby, who "goes deep into the tiger's den", discovered that Connor's group was the real murderer of the arson case. He was brainwashed and shouted for the right to speak. This is a cult. The chase in the stairwell was a little exciting, and the pain of the fingers being squeezed by the window was also very real.

Different from the story of the heroine in "Return of Zombies" who thriving and looking for medicine, "The Third Wave" is the return of the third wave of healed people to society, and it is also the pull of the three parties from different positions. Drug-resistant people exist like a bargaining chip. Between them, destroying or holding them will bring different consequences.

Although it was said that it went according to Connor's plan, released all the infected people in prison, and started a commotion, but it was finally suppressed by the government and the army, over.

Surprisingly, the female doctor's efforts were not in vain. The female drug-resistant person recovered. The long time together has created a wonderful relationship between the two of them. The kiss between the two seems particularly romantic. As soon as I hug you, I lose you.

I thought it was a happy ending, but I was caught off guard by the infected person who came out of the corner. Why didn't I play cards according to the routine? Little Kirian was actually bitten. I wanted to scold someone, and the female doctor died. The antidote is gone. Is this movie a joke? So angry.

Generally speaking, the rhythm of the film is moderate, and the characters are well-shaped. In addition, like the other film, the cured and infected may in some sense allude to a "vulnerable" group in reality. When they are isolated and excluded, they are weak, and when they are isolated and excluded When they use their shortcomings to attack ordinary people, they are powerful.

The Cured quotes

  • Cantor: They're connected in a way that we can never understand.

  • Conor: Everyone says it's hell. It's like being trapped inside your body. Fighting to stop yourself. But what they don't talk about is the moment when you stop fighting. When you start to just go with it.
