@@LifeisARiddle Not in the movie, no. In the film they're some form of infected. However, in the original novel they are indeed vampires.

They sent her to get more intel on him, but she decided not to do it because Neville and the love interest fell inlove with each other after having sex. The book is more interesting tho.

You should totally watch the show called From. It`s literally what you described and more. I definitely recommend if you enjoy a solid mystery with a dash of horror and an intriguing storyline. The third seasons will start going out at the end of this month so there is no better time to freshen your memory if you had one.
@FANatikarin1 Took me a lot longer to figure out what MiB was 😂 usually when I don't remember a movie it wasn't as good as I thought it was. IAL and iRobot still his absolute best for me.
How in the hell did the dog get down? Will smith fell for a good bit? All we see is the dog run out the little hole then he’s suddenly next too will smith
If this is true, then they didn't kill the dog on purpose, unlike the Deer, they would wait for night to come, to turn Sam into a vampire, so her senses would be fresher for to chase Will...
The fact this hit me in the heart, technology ruined everything and people don't know how to even communicate anymore irl, miss the days you could find someone by going outside 😅😪
Lol try 37 years, single/Virgin. It could always be worse. But I know the struggle of loneliness, whether it be 37 or 7 years. The worst part is there are a lot of women who are just as lonely, not knowing how to meet guys, always hoping one will talk to them. Its time to step it up brother before you turn into me, conquer your fears because a moment of fear is worth going through as opposed to a lifelong regret. At my age with 0 experience, I'd be a burden to whatever lady I'd meet. I have my career, myself and ill be that old man living in regret, alone, no love ever felt, no kids, just a bitter old prune. Oh well, my burden to bear. You still have hope, 7 years is long but you can still jump back in. You have to try, you have too. Do it for that potentially lonely lady out there who tears up at night thinking she will never meet a good man, be that man. Be more chatty with ladies you interact with, smile, be confident, if you try online dating keep trying. A rejection is significantly easier to get over than being depressed, on top of that you feel good after a rejection because you did it! You asked that lady out, just rinse and repeat until you have an interest. Easier said than done, but if you end up not doing it, you'll end up a bitter lonely borderline suicidal shit like myself. Don't do that to yourself. Please.
Take your own advice brother, you're well spoken and if youre a good man on top of that then a woman would be extremely lucky to have you in her life @sacr3
This movie is a masterclass in show don’t tell. Imagine all of the questions you would have watching this scene for the first time every like: Why is will afraid in this dark building but not outside? Why are there no zombies outside? Why be afraid of zombies at all? Aren’t they slow and weak? Then all your questions get answered without a single line of dialogue. Just imagine if this was a typical Hollywood movie that started off with a narration explaining what the mutants are and what they can do and some bs line like “I survive by staying in the light, where they can’t touch me” or something like that
hahahahah. your comment is very ironic. this movie, IS a typical hollywood movie. if you actually think this is a good movie, you have terrible standards. it steals a quality book's title while completely butchering the book. it boils down to generic isolationist will smith movie. it forgets the themes of the book. its just another zombie media from the early 2000's zombie craze
@@tombombadil1351 You clearly didn't read the comment properly. It's not about the overall quality of the movie. It's about the fact that, unlike most Hollywood movies, this one incorperates the concept of "show don't tell" incredibly well. Instead of giving a lengthy exposition dump at the beginning, usually in the form of a voice over, it explains the rules of the world and the monsters through its cinematography. As well as the emotions of the main character. Whether or not you like the movie as a whole is irrelevant. Even bad movies can do certain things right.
@@MonsterMaze i did read the whole comment. and i laughed at them suggesting it was NOT a typical holywood movie. plenty of cliche hollywood movies have openings that are not exposition, but are still utter crap. just because you didnt use exposition is not an amazing feat. thats the bottom bar you need to get past.
@@tombombadil1351 I agree that it's a typical hollywood film, and nothing special overall. But the original comment still stands. The first 15 to 20 minutes are very effective. The opening segment is a step above what most movies in this genre do. Especially nowadays.
