Resident Evil of Black Humor

When I first got this movie, I thought it was a replica of Resident Evil, it was nothing more than a lot of bloody shots to stimulate the audience's senses. The film really fell into the stereotype at the beginning, it was nothing more than an expansion of a virus, and then the introduction of several main characters, and then the zombies began to eat people. . .
The cast of this film is very strong. Three of the most famous are the three actors in prison escape: Lincoln Burrows, Theodore Bagwell, Sara Tancredi (unfortunately, they turned into zombies early).
The first highlight of the film is the use of bullet time.
The second is the rational use of violent aesthetics. When a sexy beauty becomes a zombie, the upper body face is hideous, and the lower body miniskirt with beautiful legs, a powerful visual impact is born.
In fact, the real essence of the film lies in the last 30 minutes. I found that the director is a master of black humor. The director did not take the disgusting route when the protagonist escaped, but used a lot of black humor elements.
The first is that at the beginning, a man and a woman cheated on the plane. In the end, the two became zombies and they hugged each other. It is really true that lovers eventually become married; and by coincidence, their respective boy and girl friends are also bound up. Went together. . .
Then there was the way the golfer and his wife attacked the zombies. One blasted the zombie’s head with a golf club, and the other pierced the zombie’s head with an umbrella. It can be said that it has created a new era of attacking zombies.
The most classic is that after T-Bag was bitten by a zombie, we all thought he was dead, and we were surprised to find that the zombie was actually a toothless old lady. . .
Of course, this movie still has a lot of bugs. We can be surprised to find that the walls and floors of the aircraft are so thin that zombies and bullets can be easily pierced.
And this movie set in the background of 2007, it seems that everyone does not know what happens after a person is bitten by a zombie, and every one of them spares no effort to rescue them. I really admire the ignorance of the American people.
At the end of the film, the door of the plane was opened. Under the strong air pressure, no one went into a coma due to lack of oxygen in the brain, and once again admired the strong physique of the American people.
