Introduction to the Zombie Genre
The film "28 years later" begins with Danny Boyle, the director of "The Millionaire Slums" and "127 hours". This new film is the third series that started in 2002 when Boyle presented "28 days" 28 days later. In 2007, it was followed by "28 weeks later" directed by the Spaniard Juan Carlos Veradil. Today, a new date with a third part is announced, through which Boyle takes the reins of the output again.
The Concept of Zombies
"After 28 years" is a horror film like its predecessors. It talks about an epidemic that turns people into "zombies" and quickly increases and attacks healthy people who try to defend themselves with Nobul. A picture of a future world comes from a brutal and distant era.
The Origin of Zombie Films
The idea of "Zombies" films was first introduced by George A. Romero in 1968 with his film "The Night of the Living Dead". Romero established not only the innovation of a new treatment of "zombie" films but also the introduction of the principle of "We are a illusion", whereby the violent confrontations to wandering people and others who have no life or death divided.
The Psychology Behind Zombie Films
Psychology magazines and society such as "Live Science and Psychology Today" examined the phenomenon of why people are interested in "zombies" films. The results were always close in their analyzes and gave them the reasons from which "zombies" raise films all this demand. One of the columns of analyzes is why we accept "zombies", to the fact that the viewer determines that he falls before it falls, no matter how scary and violent.
The Composition of Zombie Films
The composition of zombie films is the same, be it in this series or in subsequent Romero parts or as in the First World War to Mark Forster (2013) and with Brad Pitt, where things came from the hands of the governments and the armies of "Zombies" all over the world. Horror scenes in this film only exceeded the same type as well as the story that mixed between storm and fear.
Land and Air: Zombie Scenarios
One of the most important scenes in this film takes place in a civil aircraft because it is attacked in the first transformation of healthy people and begins to kill them. It is the same aircraft that Brad Pitt travels. The plane is a trap for everyone, there is no escape for healthy people, as we see in the film Umberto for Nazi (1980) "Nightmare City". A virus is caused by a chemical that is transmitted by the air conditioning on the level and infected people and all turns them into monsters.
An Inevitable Defeat: The Appeal of Zombie Films
The idea of "Zombies" on site is a scary idea for itself, and after one of the psychological explanations, the films mentioned and others are seen that the spectators accept these films because they are accused of wars and tragedies around the world, and they strive to see films that imitate this reality. The desire to continue life disturbs the feeling that "zombies" only have to be defeated in the next film.
The Realistic Portrayal of a Zombie Apocalypse
In his book "Current Shock: If everything happens now", the author Douglas Rashkov states that the desire to remain that urges people to see "zombies" films because they offer a realistic way of the future of a country that is contested by healthy and sick. We can add that "zombies" have left our modern life that are bound to new laws, instructions and regulations. In the hands of "Zombie" you will not find a manual phone, and there is no president who ordered and a meeting. It is more of a revolution against the world we live.
The Symbolism of Zombies
In some films by Romero, these living dead are rebellious against a life in which they could not achieve what they were striving for. In the "Morgenmow of the Dead" in 1978, we see how you hike in a shopping center (shopping center) as if you were healthy, you want to make it. In 2005 they were allowed to enter the White House. They are just brutal masses, but also a political force. These reasons correspond to the fact that they are an explanation of the end of the world in which we live because it will remove all existing civilizations.
The Relevance of Zombie Films in Today’s World
In an article published in 2020, the Sicti Todai magazine indicates that the period in which it seemed that what we see on the screen is imminent directly, the one in which the Corona epidemic has spread this year. It adds that the fears of people from injuries, their isolation in their closed houses and the general interruption of any form of normal life would have been closest, which would happen if there was already a zombie, especially since the source of epidemic is one: a killer virus.
