The story of "Resurrection" takes place in modern times, when people who were already dead were suddenly resurrected and turned into zombies.
This sudden disaster caused many people to die.
In order to survive, human beings set up a volunteer army to fight against the zombie army.
But this process did not last long, and a powerful medicine was born. Its function is amazing, it can stabilize the mood of the irritable zombies, and restore the memories and emotions of the dead.
The official organization claimed that the corpse was actually a disease and named it some patients with death syndrome . (Abbreviation: PDS)
With regular medication, the patient can return to mental normalcy.
Therefore, in order to restore more people, the government has carried out intensive treatment for the deceased people in a semi-military management method.
The male protagonist Gillen is one of them.
After regaining his human consciousness, he plans to return to his hometown of Norton Village.
However, it is not easy, the local people are afraid of the revived PDS patients, afraid that they will hurt themselves when they come back.
Although the government has already made a statement on this matter, can people who died after being resurrected can still be regarded as human beings?
The villagers disagree.
Not only did he disagree, but Bill, the leader of the Human Volunteer Army who defended Norton Village, threatened to kill anyone who dared to come back.
In fact, it does.
Although Gillen has regained human consciousness, its appearance and physical structure have long been irreversible. People with PDS are easily recognizable by their appearance: brown eyes, and dull skin...
In order to be indistinguishable from ordinary people, Gillen can only hide his identity through makeup.
To make matters worse, the treatment has a fatal side effect: memory flashbacks.
Gillen's hunting scene during the corpse transformation will continue to torment him and make him feel guilty.
"Rebirth" is a zombie drama, but also an ethical drama . Just this wonderful setting can open up a series of topics.
What will happen when the resurrected humans return to their former communities?
The same theme, different from the doomsday survival in "The Walking Dead", "Resurrection" starts from daily life to explore the boundary between two types of people.
Clearly, Gillen wasn't happy after sneaking home.
On the one hand, he can only hide at home every day to avoid the inspection of the volunteers;
On the other hand, he also has to consider how to face his parents who love him.
In order to look like a normal person, Gillen has to put makeup on himself every day; even if he can't eat food, he has to pretend like a normal person in the face of his mother's pleas...
Gillen also has a younger sister who is a member of the Volunteer Army.
The two had a good relationship, but it broke down when Gillen ate her boyfriend while he was dying.
Of course, the plot of "Rebirth" is not all about the Gillen family.
For example, the role of Bill, the leader of the volunteer army in Norton Village, kills zombies without hesitation. Even if he is a PDS patient after treatment, he will shoot without hesitation.
But a bit ironic is the inversion at the back.
The only son, who had long since died, also had a corpse transformation and returned to Norton Village after being cured...
"Rebirth" also has many likeable characters, such as the heroine Amy.
A happy zombie with a big nerve, wandering around like a madman every day, and getting to know him makes the male protagonist feel the happiness that has been missing for a long time.
After all, only the same kind can understand themselves more easily.
The screenwriter of "Rebirth" not only wants to discuss the ethics and morality between the two, but it can also be seen from the beginning that the crew has greater ambitions.
Such as the opposite of human beings, the mysterious zombie uprising.
But what's a bit pitiful is that the story of the drama "Rebirth" is actually not finished. Because of funding problems, the BBC cut it down directly...
It is said that there are plans to resurrect, but unfortunately, there is still no news.
Amway still needs to be cut off?
Yes, it has to be pushed. Don't you want to see how the corrupt country has to get a setting full of love under this theme?
