This is by far the scariest and most realistic zombie movie I've ever seen. The horror atmosphere was very ordinary at the beginning. After all, there were many people and the noise weakened a lot of horror. Even if the fighting power of the zombies in the back was overwhelming and the scene was very panic, there was only a sense of excitement to escape. The real horror of this movie is at the end. Ten minutes later, the light of the camera was broken, so we could only turn on the night vision mode. Coupled with the documentary filming method, what we could see was only a small part in front of us. The unknown added a lot of fear. At this time, there was a pale boy and The serial bombing of the shriveled female zombies made people tremble unexpectedly. In the end, the heroine was suddenly dragged into the endless darkness, and it ended just right at the climax, which made people feel lingering. I can't help but imagine how the shriveled female zombies will deal with the heroine. Personally, the last ten minutes are the essence of this movie. Other than that, what makes this movie feel real to me is because all the characters are ordinary people and they have the most real reflections. In the face of the government's blockade, they resisted, refused to cooperate, and called on the people to have the right to know; in the face of the existence of the epidemic, they suspected each other and even discriminated against each other; in the face of the siege of zombies, they fled in panic, screamed, and chatted. For example, the heroine, this is the most flustered heroine I've ever seen. She was very scared when she didn't scream during the whole process. She felt irritable and at the same time felt very real.

  • Álex: People think we run around, putting out fires but around 70% of the calls we get are for other types of services.

    Ángela: Like what?

    Álex: For example, broken water mains, or pet rescue too. Even though it sounds cliché, it's true.
