First movie experience: The global vampire famine turned into zombies (extremely bloody, PG parental guide)

I often argue with Piggy, who loves vampire movies, the essential difference between "vampires" and "zombies".

Xiaozhu always said that vampires are all neatly dressed, (if they all love dresses), they are polite and elegant, and they are far like Tom Cruise's "Vampire Love" (Interview with Vampires)... Not to mention the near, especially It's when zombie movies are so ubiquitous that even the spoof genre is a bit tired (such as the recent "Zombieland" and the previous "Shawn of the Dead")... Vampire movies are making a comeback, such as the recent post-90s "Twilight Saga" and Vampire Diaries episodes. The vampires in it are all thoughtful, moral, polite, and the four new "ghosts" with appearance...
And the ugly zombies are cruel and deformed creatures without thinking and reason...
And I said, they The only purpose is to work hard all the time to bite the throat of a human being. Therefore, don't think that wearing a beautiful vest is all about taste, okay?

Going a little further, the film received rave reviews at the Toronto Film Festival a month ago. Going to the premiere, not only because of Ethan Hawke, but also the freshness of the subject matter is different from most of the previous vampire and zombie movies.

(Slight spoilers in the first half of the following film but do not affect the viewing pleasure)

The film is based on the fact that the earth has developed to be occupied by vampires and exists as the dominant creature, and only a very small number of human beings are left alive.... .. So how do vampires, the largest species on earth, survive? Of course, it depends on the fresh blood of human beings! The vampires in the film take over all the normal activities of human society and are in good order, except that they must continue to capture the remaining human beings to continue to farm them (captivity) to maintain the operation of the vampire species and society.
The crisis is of course facing the extinction of human beings. As a vampire scientist with conscience and vision, Ethan Hawke refuses to continue to capture the last drop of blood by capturing and raising humans in captivity. Therefore, he is desperately researching blood substitute (blood substitute), And unexpectedly cooperates with what little human resistance is left on the planet. The other protagonist of the film is the classic villain Willem Dafoe (Willem Dafoe) on the screen, but he rarely plays a small leader who eventually became a rebel army from a vampire who was tired and accidentally turned back to a human being.
The story is also quite logically according to the resistance army, while desperately developing weapons and restoring vampire prescriptions, while avoiding the encirclement and suppression of the vampire arresting army everywhere; on the other hand, the vampire society has become less and less blood resources, so that the entire ethnic group begins to starve. ..

The film's detailed description of the daily life of the vampire society is very good. The coffee provided by the "coffee" shop in the subway station has changed from 20% blood to only 5%... As a result, the hungry vampires Begins to lose their minds, malnourished, skin festering, and their bodies gradually deformed, becoming brutal and highly aggressive, targeting both vampires and humans. I have to ask the vampire military police to take to the streets to maintain order...

Deng Deng Deng, and this is how zombies were born! ! ! !

And zombies actually have a decent name "subsiders" in this film...
Of course, this film is not to explore the origin of zombies, but the relationship between human beings and vampire society.
The later development and ending are quite interesting, so I won't list it for now.

Although this film is a sci-fi film, there are not too many computer stunts such as CG, the action scenes are not too hot, and there is no "epic" apocalyptic feeling and emptiness like I Am Legend...
But this film is extremely Bloody, some scenes scared me so much that my legs were shaking, and the little pig on the side simply grabbed my upper arm instead of screaming in the theater, and as a result, my right arm was squeezed so hard that it almost bleeds. The film is rated 18 in North America. It is recommended that viewers who are afraid of blood watch carefully.

PS also found the delusional banshee who briefly appeared in the sequel to "Transformers" to seduce Sam...

    The picture is good, and the original intention of the logic is also very good, but in the end, it was a little uncontrollable, and the story came to an abrupt end.
