What the director wants to say is that the "something" that holds the mainstream discourse power uses those words to encourage people to kill each other (war). The mainstream power controls our "understanding" and "understanding" of everything. "Truth" means that the "truth" is difficult for the public to touch.
Associating with our own history, certain words of certain "great men" are "viruses" that infect almost all of us, make us forget our humanity, and make us crazy.
Director Chong said "words are viruses", this film is worth collecting, even if it is not very good-looking

    Great, I mean great, as an extremely low-budget zombie movie, it suddenly adds depth. In the long-term stagnation of the horror film market, although this film is weak, its extremely ingenious theoretical logic makes people's eyes shine. This far-fetched is forgivable. (Forgiveness doesn't make it perfect, all aspects considered, four and a half stars) oh, baby, kill is kiss kill is kiss kill is kiss ~~~

    It's obviously far from what I expected, maybe because the requirements for this subject matter are too high...

Pontypool quotes

  • Grant Mazzy: It's not the end of the world, it's just the end of the day.

  • [first lines]

    Grant Mazzy: Mrs. French's cat is missing. The signs are posted all over town. "Have you seen Honey?" We've all seen the posters, but nobody has seen Honey the cat. Nobody. Until last Thursday morning, when Miss Colette Piscine swerved her car to miss Honey the cat as she drove across a bridge. Well this bridge, now slightly damaged, is a bit of a local treasure and even has its own fancy name; Pont de Flaque. Now Collette, that sounds like Culotte. That's Panty in French. And Piscine means Pool. Panty pool. Flaque also means pool in French, so Colete Piscine, in French Panty Pool, drives over the Pont de Flaque, the Pont de Pool if you will, to avoid hitting Mrs. French's cat that has been missing in Pontypool. Pontypool. Pontypool. Panty pool. Pont de Flaque. What does it mean? Well, Norman Mailer, he had an interesting theory that he used to explain the strange coincidences in the aftermath of the JFK assasination. In the wake of huge events, after them and before them, physical details they spasm for a moment; they sort of unlock and when they come back into focus they suddenly coincide in a weird way. Street names and birthdates and middle names, all kind of superfluous things appear related to eachother. It's a ripple effect. So, what does it mean? Well... it means something's going to happen. Something big. But then, something's always about to happen.
