This movie hasn't scored seven points, and there are still so few people.
I haven't seen any film reviews that are exactly in line with my ideas, so feel free to write something by yourself. The text is sparse, write wherever you want.
————————————————————— Spoiler Dividing Line———————————————————
What story does this movie tell?
In fact, I used the theme of zombies to tell a story about biological evolution. Everyone understands this, but many people have come into a misunderstanding, that is, evolution must be more and more advanced, but it is not.
Natural selection does not actually make the species stronger, but only makes the species more adaptable to the current environment. ( Does medicine that reach a certain height hinder human evolution to a certain extent?-Zhang Huanxiong's answer-Zhihu )
so:
First, there is environmental mutation-the emergence of this fungus-the fungus must also multiply
↓
Extinction of organisms that are not adapted to the environment-"old humans" become zombies-zombies and fungal pods (the way fungi reproduce)
↓
Adapt to the environment and survive-the second generation of loss-a new ecological balance (symbiosis with fungi)
Is the second generation of mourning a new species?
No, the second generation of bereavement is still human (maybe a new species, but no one should have tested reproductive isolation)
The humans in the film and some viewers affected by the subject of zombies have entered a misunderstanding, thinking that zombies and humans are not at the same time, and that the second generation of zombies belongs to a new species or even a higher species (preying on "old humans", which is at the upper level of the food chain). . Even the end of the movie expresses such a meaning through the girl's awakening of self-consciousness.
But from an evolutionary perspective, the second generation of bereavement is still humans, humans that have been screened out to live with fungi- but unfortunately they feed on "old humans" . The only thing they are "advanced" than "old humans" is that they won't be affected by fungi and become zombies. Oh, and their noses are more sensitive? Still the sentence above:
Natural selection does not actually make the species stronger, but only makes the species more adaptable to the current environment.
As for cannibalism (meat eating), please, just have a meal
Historically, you "old humans" can even do things like "changing children to eat" and "people eating each other". In the film, there is no food shortage of the two generations of funeral gnawing each other. This is also a kind of " "Evolve" right?
The second generation of mourning is human beings themselves, and blue is not necessarily better than blue. The little girl in the film will go crazy when she is hungry. After eating and sleeping, she is no different from ordinary people, and the soldier who has been caught in the trap reads the little yellow book after drinking and eating. From stealing heart. Conversely, the film also wants to say that if people's basic survival needs are not met, they will become a walking dead dominated by animal nature.
Therefore, I do not agree with the "old humans" in the film calling the "new humans" the second generation. They mistakenly regarded the zombies as the first generation. However, zombies are just a combination of dead "old humans" and fungi. They are not new species. By analogy, Cordyceps?
Is the female teacher the Virgin?
The reason why you think of her as the Virgin is because you, like the humans in the film, preconceived that the second generation of mourning is an alien. If the second generation of mourning is no different from ordinary people, then look back at the behavior of the female teacher, the Virgin?
What is the theme of the film?
(How do I feel writing and reading comprehension...)
Two words: survival
Species evolve to survive, "old humans" want to survive, the second generation want to survive, fungi want to survive...
Why can only the second generation of zombies live in perfect symbiosis with fungi? Why are some of the human instincts remaining only from breastfeeding mother zombies? Because the unborn fetus has no self-awareness, only the purest survival instinct, while the breastfeeding mother has the strongest reproductive instinct.
The survival of individuals and the reproduction of species are the most primitive instincts of living things.
Natural selection, survival of the fittest. In order to survive, it’s okay for the "old man" to take the second generation to study the vaccine, and it is more reasonable for the second generation to eliminate the "old man".
It's just that human beings have such a high level of self-awareness. For me, I would rather believe that these second generations are walking corpses controlled by fungi, rather than admit that they have been eliminated by this world.
Finally, the current novel coronavirus is just an ordinary natural selection in the short and long human history.
The world is not benevolent, and everything is a dog
