zombie apocalypse

The first film was filmed in 1978, and the second film was filmed in 2004. The overall feeling after reading it is that the first film has the feeling of the Resident Evil generation, while the second film is an enhanced version of Resident Evil. The make-up and stunts in the first part are relatively simple, but the plot is more brilliant and still gripping. It has been more than ten years), the plot is more thrilling and exciting, and the scenes of bloody violence have increased significantly. Both films are well done, and they belong to the upper-middle level among horror films, and are worth watching. The comparison is as follows: 1. The first-generation zombie modeling is rather disappointing at first glance, but it is understandable and can be ignored due to the wonderful script. In addition to the evil habit of eating people, the first generation of zombies have slow mobility and low intelligence. They are no different from mentally handicapped people. Humans can easily subdue them. The second generation of zombies has evolved significantly, both in terms of attack power and speed, and the defense is extremely high (the first generation will die with just one shot, and the second generation will die unless a headshot is taken. The gun won’t fall down), and what’s worse, the first generation of zombies will do nothing as long as you close the door. They will only helplessly slap the glass door, which poses little threat to humans, while the second generation of zombies is different. Now, not only is it as fast as a cheetah, but it can also slam into doors, climb over walls, and lift gas canisters. Without heavy weapons, humans would not be its opponents at all. 2. The protagonists of the first generation were fully prepared in advance, with their own escape helicopters, and their own weapons depots in the supermarket, with sufficient ammunition; while the second generation happened suddenly, the protagonists were all panicking to escape for their lives. Unprepared and much less ammo than the first generation. 3. In the first generation, because the zombies are relatively weak, most of the horror scenes are near misses, and it is mainly caused by humans underestimating the enemy, such as the white policeman, there is nothing in the supermarket, so he has to go back to the zombies to pick up that bag. , the result was bitten, and he also turned into a zombie and died unexpectedly - really asking for it. The survival crisis of the second generation of human beings has become more serious with the evolution of zombies. Later in the film, you can only think of two words to describe the scene of a large number of zombies flocking to the door of the supermarket. 4. The characters of the first generation are very well portrayed, especially the pregnant female news reporter, who has undergone a transformation from weak and useless to strong and rational, showing the unique calmness and wisdom of women in the face of crises. The first-generation black policeman was outrageously handsome, and his body was just right. He also appeared in the second generation, and he recited the famous line: When hell is overcrowded, the dead will return to the world. (However, in the second generation, he has become a middle-aged uncle with bags under his eyes, which is really ruthless.) The characters of the second generation are generally more confused and impulsive, and stay together because of their uncertain beliefs. It is really inexplicable that the red-haired girl survived to the end. For the sake of a dog who recklessly plunged into the zombie group, other members had to take a huge risk to save her, and an old man died because of this - I Think she is the most selfish person on the team. In addition, I don’t think it’s necessary to take such a big risk to deliver food to that weapons dealer. Why do you have to let the dog down and pull a line from the air to slide over it? . Although black policemen are not as stylish as the first generation, they are still good. They are brave and resourceful, and they are not afraid of danger. Such an uncle is really an indispensable soul in the survival team. CJ is not bad either, despite being a lot selfish at first, he is actually very dedicated and ends up sacrificing himself for others to escape. The salesman had always been indifferent. When the film was about to end, he gave up the chance to survive by boat because his arm was bitten by a zombie, so as not to harm others, it was very great. In the last shot, he said calmly, "I want to enjoy the sunset", and then stood calmly on the pier watching the yacht gallop away, and behind him was a large group of crazy zombies who were about to rush up to tear him to pieces - this shot gives I feel deeply. 5. That’s almost it, let’s add a classic survival rule about how to deal with a zombie crisis: don’t open the door randomly, curiosity killed the cat; if you hear something strange, run away immediately, don’t go to the bottom of it alone, this way The result is either being killed by an attack, or being injured.

    The rhythm is good, but the characters are lacking a bit, and the impression of the black family is still very deep.
