Female lead: Doctor Luo Run Chaisi from the Laboratory of the Epidemiological Control Center (CDC). As a doctor, he was organized into an action team number 314. The team consisted of a driver, a navigator, a gunman and a doctor, a total of 4 people. Their mission on this trip is to start from a safe quarantine area to rescue a group of uninfected people. Some of the teams sent out to collect food, some search and rescue trapped people. The responsibility of the doctor is to test the rescued and ensure that the infected zombies are not brought back to the base.
Introduction task: Dr. Ward, who had previously sent a search, reported to the headquarters that they found 98 healthy people. About half of them followed their group and requested the headquarters to rescue. Because the signal was interrupted, it was judged that these people were in the city center. St. Mindray (seems to be a supply point).
The gunman's wife is also a doctor. As a member of the previous operation team 313, she was sent to the base with the team, but has lost contact. At 30 minutes of the film, after the gunman saw the bus, he forced the driver to stop with death, left the other team members, and got on the bus of his wife's team alone to search. When it was discovered that part of his wife's organs had been dug out and eaten, he collapsed.
The driver Freddy is a fugitive, so he doesn't like to be controlled. In the middle school, the squad was besieged, and the gunman sacrificed himself, the queen. After the driver ran away alone, he went to the bank to get a pile of cash back. As a result, his abdomen was injured and infected. He saw the heroine and the navigator entering the shop on the street, so he actually appeared at a critical moment and saved the two.
Female navigator, her son "Josh" died of illness (seems to be leukemia), and she kept holding his photos, remembering. Therefore, she can understand and support all the actions of the heroine to save her family.
The hostess was evacuated from New York to this base during the evacuation operation (like the area near LA Los Angeles). She found/stolen Dr. Luo Run's ID card in New York. Her real name is "Rebecca Thomas", and the virus broke out when she was on a business trip to New York. Her home is also in this city. In the small shop, she told her true identity and persuaded the female navigator to accompany her to her home to find her family. In the shop, the driver told them that he had contacted Dr. Ward of Action Team 313. After the radio call, it was learned that there were about 8 survivors left beside Dr. Ward, hiding in the hospital. The hostess promised that the driver would take him back to the base to cure his first-degree infection, but asked him to drive to the hospital and then go to the hostess's family.
Looking for a car on the street, the female navigator was taken away by a few hungry thugs and eaten raw. After the heroine retaliatedly killed those people, they finally found the hospital. After using the driver and starting the ambulance, Dr. Ward refused to take the two of them back. Because he had worked with Dr. Luo Run, he knew that the hostess was an impersonator, and he discovered that the driver had been infected with a first-degree infection.
The hostess and the driver can only go back to the hostess's house and search for her daughter and husband. When she used the test paper to detect that her daughter had the first stage of infection, she did not tell her. In the garage, through the video clips left by her husband before his death, the hostess learned that the infected husband locked herself in the trunk of the car to prevent him from attacking his daughter out of control and waited to die. The hostess promised to her dead husband that she would save her daughter.
Once again, besieged by the zombies, the driver broke his leg and left behind. The hostess and daughter drove back to the gate of the base. Because she transferred the bio-chemical suit to her daughter, the soldiers at the door shot everyone indiscriminately, wounding the heroine. After the guards notified their superiors, they took their daughter who was wearing a chemical protective suit and was unconscious and rescued into the base as Doctor Luo Run. The heroine's great maternal love sacrificed herself and saved her daughter. If her daughter's infection level does not escalate to the second and third stages, she still has a chance to survive.
-----The
film uses a large number of cameras on biochemical suits for first-view shooting, which has a strong sense of substitution and presence like many 3D shooting games. In the same way, just like a pseudo-documentary, the lens is irregularly shaken, dim and blurred, and has become a novel shooting method for low-cost independent films. (Although most viewers are not able to accept this approach, I like it very much)
The CG special effects in some scenes of the film are very general, but the zombies fight bloody violence night vision and other aspects are very successful. The plot story is still very smooth, and I don't think there are any obvious mistakes / omissions. In the film about fighting zombies, I think this film is at the upper middle level.
I gave it 4 stars and I recommend it.
