Suddenly one day, by a certain chance, you find that you can live forever, your physical state will always be fixed at that moment and will not age, even if you are injured, you can quickly heal yourself. At this point, what are you going to do?

No matter what life path you choose, what you are facing is like this: the people around you, those who love you, those who hate you, relatives, and friends, will grow from aging to death, and there will be normal end of life and accidental death; It will face those historical events that cannot be avoided, such as great plagues, great famines, various wars in the age of cold weapons, world wars in the age of hot weapons, etc.; will experience countless gatherings and disperses, hatreds, sorrows, joys and reunions; will see around The people of ignorance gradually developed from ignorant ignorance to arrogant self-righteousness. . .

In this situation, what do you want to do? What else can be done?

Sister Theron, a super beauty thousands of years ago, first made an answer: since she can live forever and is not afraid of being injured, let herself use unremitting battles to save the vast number of mortals (mortals). At the same time, look for more like-minded immortals (undead people) to work together for this noble goal for life.

In a sense, Sister Theron has already met the conditions for entering the highest realm of communism.

Communism in textbooks is a state in which social products are almost infinite, and everyone can do whatever they want. In the past 180 years of life, what kind of life you have, you can completely rely on your imagination, how bold people are, and how productive the land is.

This state can be described with a simple formula:

The total amount of matter that can be obtained by each person = infinite amount per unit time X finite period of time (about 100 years) = infinite

According to the earth's proven resource reserves, it is still a little difficult to achieve an infinite amount per unit time. However, the infinite survival of Sister Theron in time allows the formula to continue to be established from the other direction:

Total amount = finite amount per unit of time X infinite time = infinity = communism realized

It is impossible for ordinary people to enter this realm, and it is not clear to those who are fortunate enough to enter the realm of three views to be correct, noble, pure, moral, free from vulgar tastes, beneficial to people's.

In the film, Sister Theron's life with a kitchen knife chopping wires all the way with sparks and lightning has lived happily for thousands of years. She didn't rely on her nearly unlimited time to exchange unlimited material resources, and she didn't even think about it. Try the idea of ​​co-breeding a super next generation with male undead. Otherwise, with the wisdom and wealth accumulated over thousands of years, there is no pressure to be a queen, at least there is no need to hide in hiding all day.

Compared with the undead, although the birth, aging, sickness and death of all living beings may seem a bit cruel, it at least guarantees that there is still a place for us to stand for human beings to reproduce until today. If you die, you can't die, or you can't live well. That's a headache.

    Though the idea of ​​immortality has been explored to death, and even a very similar form of superpower has been on the big screen for a while (Wolverine), this movie still intrigues me. It is very enjoyable and approaches the concept in a surprisingly refreshing way! I hope a sequel is produced. Charlize is always hot and badass.

    I think the gay story should be very interesting. You kill me and I kill you. In the end, you find that no one can die, just get together.
