If its one thing that i know from watching a zombie movie (and yes, i do watch a lot of it), then i guess it would be that we live among them in reality.
I don’t mean it like the flesh-eating zombies you see in movies; zombies killing every motherfucker that don’t have bad skin diseases like them. But i do see the similarities in this society.
So here's the comparison:
1. Origin / Cause
The infectious or contagious cause.
Zombie movie
- A mutative virus (Resident Evil called them T-virus) that acts like a parasite to the human brain, turning them into zombies.
Real-life society
- Could be anything. Fashion, status, trend, race, beliefs, ideas, etc.
2. The Pandemic
A huge-scale spread of the cause. Influencing others.
Zombie movie
- The virus was caught by a person. The person turned into a zombie and bites/kill others and turns them into zombies. They spread, growing in a geometric progression.
Real-life society
- Same thing. A small group of people likes a trend, and they influence others. Or some even blindly wanted to join the trend (a big middle-finger to you fashion sluts!). They began to expand.
3. The Killing
The elimination of the other kind, the ones who are different from them.
Zombie movie
- The zombies kill any non-zombie humans.
Real-life society
- They disagree with other trends. Argue, fight, conflict, campaign, genocide, war, etc.
4. Aftermath
The end-results.
Zombie movie
- They die!
Real-life society
- Nothing good. (They possibly die, too)
And, like in the movies, the only way to stop these living zombies...
..is with a big ass shotgun!
Haha!
So, boys and girls, don’t get sucked into the pile of zombie mosh-pit.
YOU DONT WANNA TURN BRAINLESS, DO YOU??
