Thanks for watching Y'all! If you didn't know, I have posted a video that auto public'd last night on Crotoan Medical which was dumb lol but itll be for real releasing today. Let me know what you think if you decide to check it out!
Completely unrelated but I really think you should cover Warm Bodies, I think it’s really interesting how they rap in some biology in there and it talks about their habits or what happens to them when they are zombies. It’s hilarious I really really encourage you to watch it
I don`t think this is a virus at all. It seems a lot more like some sort of prion. This would explain how it can jump between radically different species, and why there would be no immune response, as well as the nerve damage. It would be a lot like SCP-008, the zombie virus. Although I have to admit that most prions would probably take a lot longer.
My mom got scratched by a cat years ago. The claw got stuck between her finger nail and the side of the fingertip. She noticed a red line moving up her arm through her vein in the following days. The red line reached her left shoulder before she went to the hospital. She was immediately moved into an emergency room and pumped full of anti-biotics to fight off the infection that was very close to her heart. The doctor said if she gave it another day, she wouldn't be here. Great tip, really can save lives.
@@masquerade3852 yeah man, the first day she thought it was red bingo dabber. Didn't pay much attention to it until she got a fever and noticed it traveled further up her arm. Plus my mom is stubborn af.
Looking at the effects of the crops and the black blood, my first thought was corn smut. It's a black fungus that grows on corn, and in it's current form is not harmful to humans, but there are fungi that are very deadly to us. The movie might call it a virus, but a fungal infection is a probability.
I'd doubt its a fungus. While some pathogenic fungi can be found in plants, (Sporothrix sps for example), like Roanoke said, there's no example of any pathogen jumping the kingdom barrier, and if any did, it'd probably wouldn't be a fungus Fungi are very fickle organisms when it comes to pathogens and only a few out of the thousands of species can really cause human infections due to our body temperature. There only a few fungi that are life threatening to healthy people, and if I remember correctly, they don't spread human to human so easily like this disease does. I think the yeasts only really do that.
Ya, it seems like an aggressive fungal infection makes more sense with spores and how it could potentially infect both plants and creatures in a similar nature. It acts as much a venom as an infection at this point with how it infects and then necrosis starts shortly afterwards.
What's called heat thunder is quite common where I grew up. It can happen on clear nights and usually happens during the summer months. This could be an explanation for some of the thunder that is happening.
I think we've had something like that sometimes - Eastern UK - sky is as empty as Jah Jah Boris' braincase and its like a bomb goes off.. Only the last few years...
@@c.fyffe0 Anything like that lovely experience in Nebraska - where you walk in the wrong direction and you feel like your being sand/shell blasted..? That was so much fun... And please for the love of sanity, can you lot please find all your airports and get rid of the damn duplicates..
That creeping in the veins from infection is called septicemia. It’s blood poisoning from a bacterial infection in the arm or leg or wherever the cut was. My husband had it a couple of times while he worked at a ship yard. One time he came home with a fever and redness on his arm, I was telling him to get to the er immediately as we just watched the red lines creeping up his arm towards his heart. It was scary, the doctor said he would have been in either critical condition in the morning with no treatment, or dead. Septicemia is very serious people!!
@Moon B because most physical labor working men don't think about those things, they get an injury and ignore it. My dad was the same. They have hardwork in front of them they have to focus on and a little injury they get they ignore so they can finish the days work and if they get back late and leave early they are usually more focused on getting in some sleep before their early wakeup than an injury. Its exhausting work. So sometime injuries they get fester a bit before they start taking care. He def should invest in better safety equipment. But usually once you've had it your a lot more susceptible to contracting it again as well as along with MRSA which lives on the skin. It takes less invasive injuries once you've had it to contract it again basically.
@chocolatecharley99it's crazy that not many people know about this. I've seen it happen multiple times in my family, but nobody knows what I mean when I tell them the veins change color
@@Bella-qu5pfI worked in home renovation and having been infantry in the army prior I was well aware of wound care and what happens when you don't wear PPE. Was reminded after almost taking a finger off with a puddy knife clearing out grout. Take a second to put on gloves folks. Also, if doing dry wall, wear eye pro and mask. OSHA has identified is hazardous and a cancer risk. Also have a real first aid kit on standby.
This actually looks creepy. The part with the "something smells good" and the unwillful eating of the fox actually had me kinda freaked out. What an unfortunate situation the Terminator found himself in.
I have a Pomeranian that I see as a little brother and when the fox scene was coming up, I fast-forwarded it until it was Maggie walking shamefully back to the house. The movie's great though. It takes a nice twist on how zombie movies are usually told. What sucks is that some die-hard Naughty Dog fans are calling this a Last of Us copy. Yes they share similar themes but I wouldn't say that it's a copy.
I never thought I’d see the day. Thank you Roanoke and random persistent viewer for this. I’ve been looking for a zombie movie that makes relative sense.
@@takillyfishing6792 in Washington they're planning on passing a bill that will make purchasing new gas powered cars illegal around 2030. You'll be able to use them until they die and you can be grandfathered in and use them if you owned them before the bill is passed. It's also likely the bill will change by then if it even gets passed at all so there will probably be leeway and loopholes
I really like this movie’s premise. It’s not just “entire world is gone, zombies are everywhere, no hope, complete anarchy” It’s very cool how it’s somewhat under control. And I love it. I like this type of zombie movie.
"Does it really thunderstorm this much in the Midwest?". As someone from the Midwest I can confirm this. Sometimes thunder just happens. I recall one summer, we had a thunderstorm about every 11 or so days. Shit was wack.
The Midwest is in tornado alley. Well I lived Missouri for 4 years the storm were no joke and sometimes it was constant. Thunder was the least of my worries! Depending the months this took place it is absolutely realistic.
On the other hand, you get all these movies set in the Pacific Northwest-- especially Seattle-- and the movie storms are consistently accompanied by heavy thunder... which like, just doesn't tend to happen up there. I was in Seattle/Tacoma for four years and heard like five *individual* claps of thunder, and my friends who are lifelong residents confirm it's really rare.
This movie was an incredibly heartbreaking story of a father's love, but this is probably one of my favourite "zombie" movies. I loved this more original take on it, the way it progressed, the way the diseased acted, the way society dealt with them. It was very sad, but a great movie imo.
I like that this virus is more realistic by 1. Taking days to weeks to reach terminal stages, 2. Showing a steady but not complete cognitive decline, 3. Keeping the actual body of the infected alive while not giving them weird super human abilities
I remember when my mom was bit by a spider and she thought nothing of it, till a dark line serrated going up her arm. She kept insisting she was fine, but thank god my dad dragged her to the ER. It was almost to her shoulder by then and saved her life. So I’ve always remembered, if a line starts creeping towards the heart, it’s ER time.
I was bit by something on my hip, probably a spider, and it rotted a hole in me until I managed to eject everything inside the wound out so there was some kind of Venom in there working. The odd thing was a similar wound appeared on the exact same spot on the opposite hip. And it wasn't a b i t e. I think it was a sympathetic wound
destroying the foodsource and targeting humans hmuuu sounds like a bio weapon to me and especially that it is so unusuall in nature makes me think that it could have been handmade.
yeah sounds the same to me...targets corps and humans but not other plants or animal kingdom?...if that was the case then most living organism would be effected if it can target Mitochondria as that organelle is present in most multi cellular creatures I thought? Anyway the hunger games would start if you have no farms left and tainted food supply
Arnold is great if you like action B movies however he plays himself in everything except in his drama movies like this one and some of the Terminator movies. Arnold's acting is legit good in the film Maggie and the movie play the drama well Arnold does good with action comedy and now drama in his later years. I think as he's gotten older he's started trying to do actual acting roles instead of just playing himself.
Cant agree more, love that Nick Cage is beginning to just take on roles he knows can be kinda silly and making them work, such as The new movie where he plays himself that’s coming, really excited to see him and pedro Pascal work together
I can't believe it. I had that weird red line infection leading to my heart, when i was about 9. I'd stepped on a sewing needle and it was EXTREMELY visible, but whenever I've described it, it's sounded so fantastical and I've never heard of it again until NOW. My mother (an MD) remembers it clearly, but I always thought my childish brain over exaggerated how zombie like it was! Freaky shit I tell you! It was slowly climbing up my leg and I went through multiple local anaesthetic surgeries on my foot to find wtf was in it. Two days before we flew to Hobart to catch an icebreaker bound for Antarctica, I'm there on crutches, with a little specimen jar of a half inch sewing machine needle and a very apologetic mother lol. Fantastic video and again, another incredible, obscure, and very real medical fact that proves how incredibly strange and wonderful our world is, and just how able you are to break down the fictional and fantastic ♡.
Wait, you left hospital *for Antarctica * having just had blood poisoning a couple of days after being discharged, as a young kid? Bit risky I'd have thought?
This movie was so good. It's hard to believe that the Terminator could do a zombie drama film with very little action. Not only that but it would turn out to be a good, dare I say great movie.
I have to disagree, this video is the only good thing about that movie It wasn’t a bad movie, it was a boring movie. Which is worse in my opinion, Though that’s just my opinion about the movie
Yeah, i thought this was a good rolefor Arnie, in basically all other movies he is in he's the hero that kicks shit in and saves the day. In this he is still treated as a formidible character but the damage is done, there is nothing he can do.
Roanoke, the laymen's term for the red vein going up your arm/leg/limb is "blood poisoning." Also for everyone else: this applies to any mammal (as far as I know) as well-and certainly any that we tend to keep as pets. Had to take one of my dogs to the vet when she got stung on the foot by a wasp, wouldn't leave it alone, and because I was watching it, I realized she had that red line/vein going up her paw/under her fur. Got her on antibiotics and everything was fine. Edit: holy! Thanks for all the likes! :D
Looking into it, blood poisoning is another term for sepsis, but is often mistakenly used for lymphangitis. (Edit, accidentally said blood poisoning is misused to describe blood poisoning. Meant to say is misused to describe lymphangitis)
@@Sgt_Robo with a quick Google, I see that you're correct (at least trusting the internet) but that colloquially/laymen's terms it's apparently often mistaken/"misdiagnosed" as "blood poisoning" which is how I always heard them used as being interchangeable within a "hey we know that infection sites aren't supposed to do this, let's go get on antibiotics right away" context amongst family/friends. I don't know if it matters since both are caused by infections and with sepsis (and iirc gangrene can do this too but that's probably more to do with the bacteria caused by necrosis of tissue) you can also have a red line going up your skin, it's just not tracing capillaries/veins and is more broad (again, according to a quick Google search.) I know that the one time my mom (I was very tiny) ended up with MERSA about to get into her knee joint she had those lines spreading out from what had been a tiny blister and went to the doctor right away and they called it blood poisoning because she was a laymen to medical things when I was very young. I don't think there _is_ a laymen's term for Lymphangitis and since we don't have one, blood poisoning will do-as long as people get to the doctor/hospital and stay safe and know it's bad.
@@Sgt_Robo great minds think a like. I think that probably the term/idea of "blood poisoning" (I have nothing I'm basing this on just a history degree and having read too many 1860s documents) probably originated first and then we actually began defining things as medicine became more of an exact science and we knew what we were doing.
This movie was very heart tugging to watch, lots of people are always like "if there was a zombie in front of me I'd take it down no problem" but when said person see's someone they care about get bit and infected, what will actually go through your mind? a part of you will say put them out of their misery but can you actually stomach the fact of putting down someone you love, especially if it's your daughter you raised all those years?
Okay so weird story time: I actually had this thought experiment with my mom and my dad separately. The ground rules were that it wasn't a reversible disease/something that could be fought against-it was full on walking dead. My dad told me he'd not be able to do it, because he wouldn't want to be the one who "killed" me. My mom thought for a long moment and said "I would know it wasn't you anymore, and if you were in there, somewhere, somehow, I wouldn't want to keep torturing you as you slowly rotted away in a painful death." Which really stuck with me. I don't have kids so it's not like I can know what that exact parallel would be like, but I can imagine enough to know that if it was the conditions of "dead or being trapped in a decomposing body" that I wouldn't wish that upon anyone except for a tiny tiny number of people who are easily monsters already and then they only deserve to be put down because they _are_ monsters on the outside as well as the inside.
Yes. Absolutely. We can't even go two generations without the risk of global war, killing your brother is built into us. Unfortunately you are definitely the minority amongst humans. Even if my sibling was talking to me, the Brian damage and my understanding of human anatomy let's me justify it, in this case anyway.
Sorry chappo, but I'd happily empty an M134 into 99.999999% of people I've ever met and by extension the macrocosm of that group. The amount of utter evil, gormlessness, negligence, cluelessness, misdirected spite and retardery - maybe it'd have been better if we'd evolved+ from Paniscus instead of Troglodytes but I doubt it.. +Not in Texas PS if you think Charlie 19 is over, don't. PPS: there is a new version of HIV kicking around - variant VB (always reminds me of 70s vauxhalls) - three times as virulent, three times as quick and probably a lot more infectious - but by all means relax the restrictions on giving blood (and for those who lived through nvCJD, I can't see that going wrong either).
Something about these kinds of zombie diseases absolutely terrify me. The thought of losing your sense of self and only having the primal urge to eat is horrifying to me. It's kind of like dementia, where you slowly lose your consciousness until eventually nothing is left. Anywho great video!
This movie depressed the hell out of me, but I loved how scarily close it came to mirroring real life and our current outbreak. That being said, I do not appreciate living through a historical event.
Except the disease were experiencing is child’s play, low mortality and the death counts only due to us having so many humans to begin with. The on thing I disliked about living through this was all the whining and crying from weak people.
@@magnarcreed3801 "from weak people" what a magnificent and amazingly stupid thing to say.. if you really think the worse thing that happened due to covid was "weak people whining".. just.. I.. just.. I hope you catch it. For real.
Lol. These comments have aged poorly now we know only 2.6% of the world's entirely population even got covid, and a vast majority survived. Comparing a glorified flu to an actual apocalyptic virus is madness.
Covid is/was the most survivable virus in recorded history, extremely low mortality, minimal side effects (most never knew they even had it), and was blown out of proportion by every media conglomerate on planet Earth for views which equaled advert money. BigPharma also made record profits due to such as BigPharma funds most legacy media outlets. Basically, Covid was a massive paycheck to the top 1% and a net loss for the other 99% who couldn't profit. Wal-Mart, Amazon, fast food places, etc saw massive increase in revenue while small businesses were treading water at best, shuttering at the worst. In one way the "pandemic" was devastating though, economically. I've never witnessed such a downscaling of quality of life in my lifetime (I am 58 years-old), in my town alone the main street lost over 50% of it's small businesses and has yet to recover (if it ever does) as property taxes, bills, utilities, etc have not been adjusted for the inflation the lockdowns created.
While not the greatest zombie movie, or movie in general; I think Arnie actually did a really good job in a role that isn't just an action move. Besides his accent not making sense for the area, his acting is very well done.
The movie isn't a zombie movie the zombie stuff is just used for the catalyst of the plot. The film is really a simple drama about a man having to deal with losing his daughter and how his daughter deals with dying at a young age. It's a virus infection depressing family drama it isn't a Zombie movie.
There are a lot of German and Austrian farmers in Iowa Missouri and Kansas I think it can work but in this case I'm inclined to agree Arnold does seem to be misplaced lol 😆
whaddya mean not making sense?? the midwest literally one of the biggest immigration destinations for german, polish and irish immigrants. America is a melting pot. Dont ever forget that. People can live in any part from anywhere in the world and have a weird accent and its normal. I mean wouldnt it be more weird if an american governor of a state spoke with a german accent?? That shit literally happened, in real life my dude.
@@boomstickcritique902 well its the same type of movie we've seen before, but just framed in the current zeitgheist which is apocalypse by zombie. If it was made when i was younger, it would have been post nuclear war, oh wait thats now too.
The human bottleneck, where around 10,000 breeding pairs(If I'm remembering correctly, that's 2 females and a male.) of humans were left after a massive volcanic eruption in the pacific. Just barely enough to sustain genetic diversity and allow us to repopulate. Edit: Wait...Brompton cocktails aren't supposed to be painful. Docs in this movie messed up.
Maybe the cocktail is something to ensure there is no trace of a working nervous system or it's designed to make sure that no matter what happens, 'the dead stay dead'? A relative who worked at a vet told me the drugs used to euthanise animals hurts them a lot but there is a muscle relaxant in it so they can't cry out in pain. EDIT: I do not know if the situation regards the vets has changed. It was a while ago that my relative worked there.
@@ptonpc " the drugs used to euthanise animals hurts them a lot but there is a muscle relaxant in it so they can't cry out in pain." Sounds more like the cocktails used to kill inmates on death penalty in the US. Vets here use a mixture of barbiturates and strong opioids and neither of them hurt, I can assure you that.
@@Hunk666 this is one of the things I never really understood. Why do lethal injection cocktails have such a track record of being painful in the extreme? We have opiates and plenty of other pain killers that are easy to OD on, why not use those?
@@jacobbrown7367 Well, I am not a proponent of the death penalty nor an US citizen but I can imagine that it would be seen as to "easy" to go via fentanyl OD rather than a painful mix of other chemicals.
It’s very refreshing to have a Zombie virus that can be explained by a lot more that “shit happens”. Thanks for your excellent theories and discussion.
zombie rodents is a fucking terrifying idea, with how they can get inside from just a small crack or hole that normally would seem inconsequential you'd have to be very careful in sealing up your home base, and keeping it clear. Also just imagine if you stumbled upon a colony of them, especially on the larger size which can get into the area of 150, getting swarmed and nibbled to death by a hundred tiny mouths sounds like one of the worst ways to go. If rodents ever do become zombies, lets just hope they don't start following the trope of zombies herding up and the necrosis hampers their ability to compress.
In the webcomic Stand Still Stay Silent all mammals (except cats because magic) can be infected. Despite there being monsters big enough to punch through armoured trains, the rodents are considered the most dangerous for that exact reason. They can sneak in through tiny cracks, run rampant, and dip without being seen
Oh bruh, i read this super bad zombie LN and the only zombies that made me trully terrified were the insects and mice zombies simply cus even as normal mice/insects, we already have a hard time keeping them out of our house.
I had a tattoo done on my wrist a few years back, a few days later I noticed a red line going up my arm, thought nothing of it until it reached almost up to my shoulder. Decided I may as well let a doctor take a look, in which they informed me I had blood poisoning and rushed me to hospital. Put me on antibiotics and told me if I left it any longer i'd be dead......Lucky I got it checked really lol
@@cadkls Why curious? Technically any injury that isn't properly cleaned, like a blood draw where they used a sterile needle and cleaned the site beforehand would be safe but most of the injuries to our skin aren't like that, has a chance of becoming infected. A small percentage simply will because of bad luck. The ones that develop blood poisoning show up the same on any limb, so that's not unusual. The truly terrifying part, aside from when people ignore the line type and die tragic, preventable deaths like one or two people I've known, is when there is no line to see. Women who use tampons during their periods and don't change them often enough are especially at risk of developing toxic shock syndrome, where they go from feeling just flu-like under the weather to collapsing and possibly dying in a frighteningly short amount of time. You can also go septic with virtually no warning from an untreated UTI, and that's actually much more common in my personal experience. It happened to a former coworker, a friend's relative, and nearly happened to my own Dad.
Abigail Breslin (the girl who plays Maggie) seems to be the go to choice for a young girl in a zombie movie. She played Little Rock in Zombieland and Zombieland 2.
Hey Roanoke, I know you probably won’t see this, but thank you. The man who was basically my surrogate father committed suicide two days ago. Your videos have helped keep my mind off of things. I appreciate the hard work you put into these videos. So thank you
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I hope that you're able to find the support you need IRL. There are many free mental health/bereavement support programs online, if you need a little help. Access to therapy and mental healthcare can be difficult these days. You aren't alone. ❤
"Wow such gaming" did a good analysis on that movie and while, as stated by several other people here, thunder seems to be quite normal in the midwest, it also works as a way to symbolize the catastrophe drawing near. If you listen closely, the thunder gets louder and louder during the movie the closer we get to the end of maggie turning, the dread and fear being small at first, but getting closer and unavoidable like the sheer power if nature thunder symbolizes
I was so excited for this movie when it released, but it was so depressing. Don’t think I would ever watch it again. It was definitely a unique take on the zombie genre though.
I just can't get it out of my head - who the hell wears those light, white dresses instead of normal pajamas or underwear for sleeping? Like that little zombie-girl or Maggie at the end of the film? It's pretty much a standard uniform for every ghost girl in horror movies. I know that they are supposed to increase the drama factor - the white material contrasts with blood and darknes, it contradicts our cultural habit of associating clean white with innocence and harmlessness, while the said ghost girls are anything but harmless - but still, not even my grandma wears it. Who even owns one these days?
It's called a 'nighty'. Tonnes of little girls wear nighties. Tonnes of adults wear nighties. Especially in summer (which this is), and especially in traditional areas (which this is). I have three (Black floral, while floral, polar bear).
This is honestly what i was thinking. Every plant relies on verious fungal species to act as an interface with the ground. Seems more likely its a fungal virus, or a human virus that infected the fungas. Still would be EXTREMELY rare, but seems more likely to me.
6:36 I actually know a guy who raises cattle around here and when they're calving you're more likely to find him sleeping in a blind then his house. Dude will spend most of the night looking through a thermal camera for anything after the calves. At which point when he sees it gets shot in the head. Oh and I forgot to mention he may have spent a few years as a corpsman sniper. But just the amount around here who would nail a human sized head from a kilometer away is crazy.
@@RoanokeGaming for proper farmers you have to have a certain degree of flat ground meaning you have a really long way you can see and every one of these bastards has at the very least a hunting rifle Unfortunately people don't seem to understand their life is worth more than that Cockheads trying to steal copper out of everything
@@Rurik_Luci "For proper farmers you have to have a certain degree of flat ground" No, no you don't. Not a single bit of my land is "flat" and I'm a "proper" farmer. And what's a "corpsman sniper"? Navy Corpsman are medical personal, not snipers.
@@brandondavis7777 While yes you’re correct, he might be referring to marines who also have Corpsmen. Although I don’t know how it works now, I know that the reason the marines had corpsmen and not medics was because the Japanese would shoot medics, so to get around the laws of war where a medic can’t be armed, the corpsman came into being. At least in WW2, corpsmen were riflemen and medic at the same time, and would receive the same combat training.
Those spikes from cargo do exist, it's a sharp metal rod on a small can of compressed air. They were found in isolated areas where you couldn't get to a hospital in time, it's to end any pain or suffering in an instant. All that happens if you press the button, the air rushes out to the metal rod, which is firmly placed against your temple with a force of 490psi, the rod enters your temple, forces it's way through your brain. The result is an instant painless death.
Actually as someone who has grown up in the midwest we do get a lot of thunderstorms I would find it completely believable with how little time passes in this movie.
Zombie breakdows are my favourite kind of breakdowns. I really can't wait until everyone plays through Dying Light 2, so that we can get an update on Harran Virus 2 electric boogaloo.
Could there be more storms due to crops burning? After the wildfires in California/Colorado there were thunderstorms built off the smoke plumes (water molecules condensing on the ash)
@@greenyodais yeah that’s what I’m talking about. I’ll have to look if the gas or the microscopic ash particles act as the nucleation point for cloud formation
Take care of yourselves, be observant and don't put off going to the doctor or ER if you see that red line! He ain't kidding about infections. I had an infected in-grown toenail one summer. While I was visiting my friend for the weekend, a red line began to run up the top of my foot. I went fast and about 12 hours after it showed up I had a bad fever and a sore throat. Needless to say, I ended up getting some hefty huge antibiotics. I spent the next week with the lymph nodes in my throat, so swollen my doctor had given me opioids for the pain (this was back in the 90's). It was terrifying and painful. Love your work RG, I am super happy I found your channel!
Also 1. The thunder is metaphor for the storm that is creeping closer but never comes 2. I love how no one is in the wrong here. Everyone acted with just actions. All diff reasons but all scared for themselves and loved ones and others. 3. The "painful" cocktail i just realized its probably 1 more way to make it ethical because the infected who stopped feeling will feel something that makes them more human. It also ensures when they die they don't come back as zombies
The plains areas get tons of thunderstorms. I'm not a weather expert but could it be possible that all the burning fields are putting extra particles in the atmosphere for moisture to cling to and also add to the storms?
When we have big bushfires here in Australia the smoke can be enough to cause lightning so it makes sense that everyone burning their crops would have the same effect
Yeah but whenever humanity hits an extinction event like that, we can just sharpen some sticks and get to work. Sharp sticks solved like 80 percent of our extinction events
@@noormkdad5620 yes actually, we are the overlords of earth, but at this point an extinction level event would probably actually wipe us out, our immune system is slowly losing the ability to handle the diseases that would be in wild animals meat, not entirely, hunters deal with it fine, but by the end of the next century we won't be able to handle having to regress back that far anymore
About the people not gathering with something like this. It becomes the new normal, people stop giving any crap. I take a medication that keeps a condition in check. Considering what's been going on for awhile now, I could see people just vibing with things like this happening. Acceptance of the end.
This. Life moves on and well adapt to new diseases. Losing a fraction of our population means very little in the end. Actually this is great. Less people.
Yea but there is always a real possibility of getting infected via fluids even when that infected is the friendliest person ever they can still unintentionally infect you eg. Having a conversation with your infected friend then spit/saliva flies out from them and lands on your body or hugging, touching etc.
Trust me, during the season, the Midwest is pretty much constantly on the cusp of a thunderstorm, sometimes the rumbling thunder even syncs for dramatic effect.
Lol I’m glad to see persistence can go a long way on your channel because that “All of us are dead” series definitely should be next. Not sure exactly how realistic the virus is but it’s a good watch and has some fictional depth for you to explore
Bro, I found your videos a while back and fell in love with it. I’ve always watched movies and tried to logic them. Even with the newest Texas Chainsaw movie lol. You’re awesome and your content is amazing. Keep it up bro!
It would be so terrifying to see your own body start rotting. And then starting to have cannibalistic urges? Yikes. The way they set up this zombie virus for this movie is a psychological nightmare.
Its so weird how in these universes humans apparently can’t be put to sleep like any other animal. We have basically perfected the science of letting our beloved furry friends get a dignified end without any pain or distress, but I guess designing an epipen that basically just makes you ”fall asleep” all calmly is just to difficult? I mean, Imagine the accidents that could happen with the Cargo needle!! Even when slaughtering animals in an extremely controlled manner you sometimes need to give them two bullets because the first one did not fully kill their brain. They dont suffer during such a situation as long as you are effective when reloading and giving them another bullet, but if you just laid them down and let them be... If the brain was hit terribly wrong, they could still be awake and aware for quite some time without proper ability to controll their body! Imagine having missfired your only needle, and not being able to move properly to crawl off a cliff or get a gun or something?! That would be horrifying!! I mean, guns fail to kill people that try to shoot themselves in the head often enought that a headshot does not equal instant death. If a gun can fail to do the job, I would not put my trust in a single, slim needle. Not to mention how scary it is to have to make such an abrupt desition. I would rather stab myself in the leg with an epipen and then feel myself slowly just fade out. Maybe even add some funny drugs to the mix so it feels nice.
Bruh, illicit drug overdose is actually the #1 cause of death among 18-45 year olds right now In the US as of December 2021. Fentanyl does an amazing job of just turning you right off, often whether you intend to or not.
Might as well go out on a strong opiate like one of the fentanyl analogues. In a big surge of dopamine all your worries go away, consciousness swiftly follows, then respiration stops forever. Probably a better way to go out than 00 buckshot and no mess to traumatize whoever finds you that extra mile with gore everywhere.
I honestly think religion has a lot to do with it and where you happen to be from. Religion and society kind of dictate how you view and interact with death. It just so happens if you live in America or a similar country, things such as assisted suicide are seen as brutish, sinful, and morally bankrupt. It's unfortunate. I wish we had humane euthanasia for humans as we do for our furry friends who suffer. It's still always sad to euthanize something, pet or otherwise, but it is so much more beneficial all together.
As someone from the midwest we do get a lot of thunderstorms, especially the great lakes area. And yes there can be a thunderstorms a few miles one way and you hear it but never hits you.
This was the movie where I saw Arnold's dramatic capabilities. It was quite underrated. Similar to Cargo. Btw Roanoke, can you look at the physiology of the aliens in the movie "The Arrival", starring Charlie Sheen. 😊
@Roanoke Gaming I could honestly see the cops taking the lady to Jail that hid her infected family, as not just a means to punish but to keep watch on her for suicide prevention as she has just lost her family and it is likely that she would be in no good shape in her mind.
I've always wondered why there aren't more "harmless" zombies in movies, where they're literally just bodies with minimal brain activity. it's probably not as exciting, but it's a pretty cool twist to the average idea of violent zombies.
This movie was heartbreaking but beautiful. I loved it and I hate tragedies! He was ready to do what he had to when the time came, but there was just enough of her true self left for her to be able to walk away and spare him from having to. Also Arnold Schwarzenegger and Abigail Breslin were absolutely amazing!
8:40 - I'd argue that's more of a general human thing, not a "male" thing, that we become more talkative and sociable when working on a task together. Think about all the talk and gossip across the centuries at the laundry and in the kitchen, all places of group work that are more traditionally associated with women and feminine activities. I think that makes a lot more sense than saying humans with XY chromosomes are just inherently more social in these situations. 😅 You have a great point about using a project as a way for guys to open up, though, because it's a "manly" group activity that encourages talking, as opposed to getting lost in the crowd of a sports match, or maintaining the quiet at a fishing spot. Masculine people (of any gender!) face so much pressure in society to repress their emotions, and there are simply too few "acceptable" ways for them to open up to others. It bums me out.
Definitely would like to see the Jiralhanae a.k.a. the Brutes from the Halo series revisited, taking into account cinematics and whatnot from more recent entries like *_Halo Wars 2_* and *_Halo: Infinite_* for more up-to-date info.
A great watch! Note from the Midwest on thunder/storms. Heat thunder is pretty common in hot months. Also the fact that they've been consistently burning crops can lead to that smokey sky and more rain as a result!
I have a friend who almost died from sepsis because he had a small infected cut on his leg that began travelling up to his heart. I'm not sure how far it had progressed exactly, but doctors said had he not came to the hospital for even a few more days, he likely would have died.
This is one of those solid gold heart movies, 10 out of 10 for relatability. It's easily relatable cause you see family of friends deal with these kinds of illnesses..
This movie is definitely about cancer. I remember discussions like with the doctor where my brother was lied to about his condition, only for my parents and I to be hit by a harsher reality. Where the steroids and chemotherapy changed his appetite randomly from never hungry to ravenous and embarrassed to be a day or two later. To his friends trying to be encouraging but eventually falling out due to the emotional stress. This movie hit me. Don't get me wrong, I like the movie and worldbuilding, but I couldn't see it any other way than a man losing his daughter to cancer
Watched half your video and was blown away by how authentic this movie is. Stopped and had to watch it myself... Man, that was a ROUGH ride 😥 Best, most heartbreaking, and realistic zombie movie ever made. Now to finish your video! ❤
I thought they were burning the crops because it was the safest way to handle zombies lying in the fields. Like Maggie, Arnie, and that boy were attacked by zombies playing peekaboo in the crops so I thought that was the issue!
Can confirm that it does thunderstorm this much in the Midwest! Often during the summers, there might be a few days where it just is booming, slightly booming, and you can even see small booms in the far off distance. Lots of thunder here in the Midwest.
The best option for these types of zombies is chain mail, shark suits, or gimp leather/latex and padding. Anything to blunt the weak bites of humans while covering the skin to exposure. Bonus, for most the world it's not that bad of an option.
@@stormjin2242 worst part is, you can diy a chain shirt out of pretty much anything. Heck a few layers of shit, thick hoodie or a good jacket will solve almost all the bite problems. A choker and medium work gloves for the rest. You don't need to worry too much about the legs, but some shin guards or chaps. Or again a pair of thick sweats under a pair of thick jeans. Or even leather pants.
@@dramspringfeald exactly, it's not hard to stop their primary attack, and nobody in any zombie movie ever does, they just run around in light clothes at best, and then don't understand how things get so bad
I never heard of this movie. It seems super interesting. Zombie movies always seem to be "get bit, turn into a zombie in under 1 minute, take off running in a rampage to clap as many cheeks vie your tusks as possible" I like how this movie portrays it.
Oh hey I remember this movie, but I never actually got through it. On another topic, have you checked out Star Trek: Voyager’s Macrovirus? It’s nearly impossible to explain biologically, but I’d love to see your take on it.
There are actually a lot of Trek afflictions Roanoke might like to look over, now that I think about it. The weird "the kids cause rapid aging" episode in TNG, the Viiridian Phage in Voyager...
@@OverdramaticAngel Well, with a mass species-wide plague that causes severe, lethal-unless-replaced necrosis in their... Everything, to the point that their civilization set on scientific exploration, discovery, as well as artistic and scholarly pursuits, is all-but entirely warped into a species of organ harvesters. TL;DR: "That could/could've been us" seemed like the vibe they were going for, so the permanent unease makes sense.
Humble suggestion. Before season 2 of Invincible, look over how the Viltrumite purge affects their evolution. Know you aren't a geneticist but be fun to hear your thoughts on how they became immune to nearly every virus/bacterial infection and why it overrides other genetic coding.
The red line thing happened when my cat bit me. Somewhere around 20 hours after the bite, I had a red line up to my bicep and promptly went to the hospital. If a cat bites you deep enough to draw blood, go to the hospital ASAP! It's probably already infected because cats mouths are FILTHY.
Another potential reason for the thunder is the crop blight. If a significant number of farmers in the Mid West were all burning their crops, that would put a lot of smoke into the local atmosphere, causing a mixture of cool air and warm air and smoke, causing the thunder without rain.
This is in interesting one, not too often you see zombie virus movies handled in such a way. Have you considered looking at the virus in The Last Ship? After season 1, the virus jumps from people to plants, which is similar to what happens in this movie.
Love your breakdowns... Could we maybe get one for All of Us Are Dead?? The whole time I was watching that I was thinking "I'm gonna need Roanoke to take a bite of this one... " If not, no worries... I'm sure these are a ton of work and a TV show might be too much. Just was curious wjat you would think of it.
@@RoanokeGaming no rush!! There was some scientific stuff in there so I'm interested to see how plausible... Or where reality ends and fiction begins... I won't say more as to not spoil it but I genuinely love the show and think it's just plain excellent so at the very least, I hope you enjoy it video or not!!
I second this the amount of constant scientific explanation on how and why the Virus functions the way it does but only as the characters start to figure things out themselves was a nice touch
@@kittygoesdowntherabbithole4799 fiction begins with the survivors having any kind of wound while traveling through that school >_< they tried really really hard to justify things but the only sanitary spots left in the entire building at the end of the series is the ceiling (in some areas even this isnt safe) and the insides of most walls LOL. even the survivor's clothes would spell death if they didnt have plot armor. however i 100% agree that "all of us are dead" treated an aggressive zombie virus pretty accurately ^_^ to me it was way more believable than walking dead. i appreciated that they saved noodle level gore for shock scenes and just stuck to sauce and meatball level the rest of the time. the biggest sin in any zombie show is the transformation time to be honest. aouad had the fastest turn time possible making it the largest zombie sin overall.
i will admit the 2 youtubers i look forward to checking out "All of Us are Dead" are *Roanoke Gaming* (for the virology science) and *Wow Such Gaming* (he does zombie sin counters).
I don`t think this is a virus at all. It seems a lot more like some sort of prion. This would explain how it can jump between radically different species, and why there would be no immune response, as well as the nerve damage. It would be a lot like SCP-008, the zombie virus. Although I have to admit that most prions would probably take a lot longer.
I remembered this really well mainly bc I’m training as a combat medic in the US army right now and thought about this video whenever we practiced good sanitation and cleanliness before sticking others w needles, really good to keep in mind.

Lived in Oklahoma for two years, during the spring it would threaten to rain almost every day, sometimes for weeks at a time. The transition of high and low pressure systems would mean bright and sunny during the day, but dull and stormy in the evening.
Hey Roanoke. I'm definitely not a biologist or medical expert, but wouldn't a fungus be a better vector than a virus, since they can theoretically monopolize both plants and humans (avoiding the very difficult/impossible task of getting used to invading both plant and human cells)?
There's a few pathogens(?), like Asters yellow, that if you see a plant that's infected, you burn it. Otherwise leafhoppers carry it from plant to plant, and it can effect a lot of plant species.
That is a good point. I had a fungal infection 8 years ago from the gym and that stuff colonized me. No over-the-counter antifungal worked against it. They finally prescribed me a new experimental antifungal and it took it about 2 months to kill it but then I had outbreaks every few months for the next two years. It had clearly left spores inside me. I think a fungus would easily bridge the gap between plants and animals.
Something weird to me about Zombies is how bugs and maggots are attracted to them. I know it’s a dead body, but the flesh isn’t just necrotic, it’s basically poisonous.
Nothing really bothers maggots though. They are actually used medically if a person has a skin or tissue infection that is extremely hard to get rid of. They put the maggots on the infected tissue, the maggots eat it...it's food for them, and their saliva helps to produce new healthy tissue.

My mom got scratched by a cat years ago. The claw got stuck between her finger nail and the side of the fingertip. She noticed a red line moving up her arm through her vein in the following days. The red line reached her left shoulder before she went to the hospital. She was immediately moved into an emergency room and pumped full of anti-biotics to fight off the infection that was very close to her heart. The doctor said if she gave it another day, she wouldn't be here. Great tip, really can save lives.
Jesus man that sounds scary af glad your mom is alright
Damn bro she saw something travel through her veins and waited till it was an inch from her heart to get help?
@@masquerade3852 yeah man, the first day she thought it was red bingo dabber. Didn't pay much attention to it until she got a fever and noticed it traveled further up her arm. Plus my mom is stubborn af.
Thank god your mom is Okay brotha!
Patient zero neutralised.
Looking at the effects of the crops and the black blood, my first thought was corn smut. It's a black fungus that grows on corn, and in it's current form is not harmful to humans, but there are fungi that are very deadly to us. The movie might call it a virus, but a fungal infection is a probability.
I'd doubt its a fungus. While some pathogenic fungi can be found in plants, (Sporothrix sps for example), like Roanoke said, there's no example of any pathogen jumping the kingdom barrier, and if any did, it'd probably wouldn't be a fungus Fungi are very fickle organisms when it comes to pathogens and only a few out of the thousands of species can really cause human infections due to our body temperature. There only a few fungi that are life threatening to healthy people, and if I remember correctly, they don't spread human to human so easily like this disease does. I think the yeasts only really do that.
More plants that show these infections and not just corn.
Corn smut is a delicacy, cook it up like you would any other mushroom, delicious on tacos.
Ya, it seems like an aggressive fungal infection makes more sense with spores and how it could potentially infect both plants and creatures in a similar nature. It acts as much a venom as an infection at this point with how it infects and then necrosis starts shortly afterwards.
@@IloveJellow different species though. The famous wheat fungus, ergot, is pretty bad for you. Necrotizes your limbs, causes psychosis and convulsions
What's called heat thunder is quite common where I grew up. It can happen on clear nights and usually happens during the summer months. This could be an explanation for some of the thunder that is happening.
interesting! we have heat lightning in the south with no thunder usually, or atleast it isnt audible
I grew up in more than New England area so it's possible it's the same thing just presenting without the visible lightning.
We'd often get a bit of both in the lower areas of Idaho the heat and sand blowing around causes some unique reactions

That creeping in the veins from infection is called septicemia. It’s blood poisoning from a bacterial infection in the arm or leg or wherever the cut was. My husband had it a couple of times while he worked at a ship yard. One time he came home with a fever and redness on his arm, I was telling him to get to the er immediately as we just watched the red lines creeping up his arm towards his heart. It was scary, the doctor said he would have been in either critical condition in the morning with no treatment, or dead. Septicemia is very serious people!!
He is a typical man and doesn't bother with safety. There is a reason men tend to die sooner then women.
@Moon B because most physical labor working men don't think about those things, they get an injury and ignore it. My dad was the same. They have hardwork in front of them they have to focus on and a little injury they get they ignore so they can finish the days work and if they get back late and leave early they are usually more focused on getting in some sleep before their early wakeup than an injury. Its exhausting work. So sometime injuries they get fester a bit before they start taking care. He def should invest in better safety equipment. But usually once you've had it your a lot more susceptible to contracting it again as well as along with MRSA which lives on the skin. It takes less invasive injuries once you've had it to contract it again basically.
@chocolatecharley99it's crazy that not many people know about this. I've seen it happen multiple times in my family, but nobody knows what I mean when I tell them the veins change color

This actually looks creepy. The part with the "something smells good" and the unwillful eating of the fox actually had me kinda freaked out. What an unfortunate situation the Terminator found himself in.
If only he had a choppa to get to
I have a Pomeranian that I see as a little brother and when the fox scene was coming up, I fast-forwarded it until it was Maggie walking shamefully back to the house. The movie's great though. It takes a nice twist on how zombie movies are usually told. What sucks is that some die-hard Naughty Dog fans are calling this a Last of Us copy. Yes they share similar themes but I wouldn't say that it's a copy.

"Does it really thunderstorm this much in the Midwest?". As someone from the Midwest I can confirm this. Sometimes thunder just happens. I recall one summer, we had a thunderstorm about every 11 or so days. Shit was wack.
The Midwest is in tornado alley. Well I lived Missouri for 4 years the storm were no joke and sometimes it was constant. Thunder was the least of my worries! Depending the months this took place it is absolutely realistic.
I'm also from the Midwest and can confirm that it's just loud there. Clouds and thunder are the norm.
thunderstorms are gun bro, when they hit here they hit hard
You'll see thunder even when it's snowing. #midwestweather.
On the other hand, you get all these movies set in the Pacific Northwest-- especially Seattle-- and the movie storms are consistently accompanied by heavy thunder... which like, just doesn't tend to happen up there. I was in Seattle/Tacoma for four years and heard like five *individual* claps of thunder, and my friends who are lifelong residents confirm it's really rare.
This movie was an incredibly heartbreaking story of a father's love, but this is probably one of my favourite "zombie" movies. I loved this more original take on it, the way it progressed, the way the diseased acted, the way society dealt with them.
It was very sad, but a great movie imo.
I like that this virus is more realistic by 1. Taking days to weeks to reach terminal stages, 2. Showing a steady but not complete cognitive decline, 3. Keeping the actual body of the infected alive while not giving them weird super human abilities
very well spoken, wonderful
I remember when my mom was bit by a spider and she thought nothing of it, till a dark line serrated going up her arm. She kept insisting she was fine, but thank god my dad dragged her to the ER. It was almost to her shoulder by then and saved her life. So I’ve always remembered, if a line starts creeping towards the heart, it’s ER time.
I was bit by something on my hip, probably a spider, and it rotted a hole in me until I managed to eject everything inside the wound out so there was some kind of Venom in there working. The odd thing was a similar wound appeared on the exact same spot on the opposite hip. And it wasn't a b i t e. I think it was a sympathetic wound

Arnold is great if you like action B movies however he plays himself in everything except in his drama movies like this one and some of the Terminator movies. Arnold's acting is legit good in the film Maggie and the movie play the drama well Arnold does good with action comedy and now drama in his later years. I think as he's gotten older he's started trying to do actual acting roles instead of just playing himself.
Cant agree more, love that Nick Cage is beginning to just take on roles he knows can be kinda silly and making them work, such as The new movie where he plays himself that’s coming, really excited to see him and pedro Pascal work together
This film was a startling reminder that even though he usually doesn't bother, Arnie CAN act.
He’s a robot. It’s what he was sent here to do
I can't believe it. I had that weird red line infection leading to my heart, when i was about 9. I'd stepped on a sewing needle and it was EXTREMELY visible, but whenever I've described it, it's sounded so fantastical and I've never heard of it again until NOW. My mother (an MD) remembers it clearly, but I always thought my childish brain over exaggerated how zombie like it was! Freaky shit I tell you! It was slowly climbing up my leg and I went through multiple local anaesthetic surgeries on my foot to find wtf was in it.
Two days before we flew to Hobart to catch an icebreaker bound for Antarctica, I'm there on crutches, with a little specimen jar of a half inch sewing machine needle and a very apologetic mother lol.
Fantastic video and again, another incredible, obscure, and very real medical fact that proves how incredibly strange and wonderful our world is, and just how able you are to break down the fictional and fantastic ♡.
Wait, you left hospital *for Antarctica * having just had blood poisoning a couple of days after being discharged, as a young kid? Bit risky I'd have thought?
This movie was so good. It's hard to believe that the Terminator could do a zombie drama film with very little action. Not only that but it would turn out to be a good, dare I say great movie.
He does have some range!
I have to disagree, this video is the only good thing about that movie
It wasn’t a bad movie, it was a boring movie. Which is worse in my opinion,
Though that’s just my opinion about the movie
Arnold is a good actor, its just due to his physique he focused in action.
Yeah, i thought this was a good rolefor Arnie, in basically all other movies he is in he's the hero that kicks shit in and saves the day. In this he is still treated as a formidible character but the damage is done, there is nothing he can do.
@@moga-hunter2410 I disagree, I think it was a true horror film.
Roanoke, the laymen's term for the red vein going up your arm/leg/limb is "blood poisoning." Also for everyone else: this applies to any mammal (as far as I know) as well-and certainly any that we tend to keep as pets. Had to take one of my dogs to the vet when she got stung on the foot by a wasp, wouldn't leave it alone, and because I was watching it, I realized she had that red line/vein going up her paw/under her fur. Got her on antibiotics and everything was fine.
Edit: holy! Thanks for all the likes! :D
Glad you got her to the vet before it got worse!
I though blood poisoning was sepsis? The red line along the vein sounds like lymphangitis.
Looking into it, blood poisoning is another term for sepsis, but is often mistakenly used for lymphangitis. (Edit, accidentally said blood poisoning is misused to describe blood poisoning. Meant to say is misused to describe lymphangitis)
@@Sgt_Robo with a quick Google, I see that you're correct (at least trusting the internet) but that colloquially/laymen's terms it's apparently often mistaken/"misdiagnosed" as "blood poisoning" which is how I always heard them used as being interchangeable within a "hey we know that infection sites aren't supposed to do this, let's go get on antibiotics right away" context amongst family/friends. I don't know if it matters since both are caused by infections and with sepsis (and iirc gangrene can do this too but that's probably more to do with the bacteria caused by necrosis of tissue) you can also have a red line going up your skin, it's just not tracing capillaries/veins and is more broad (again, according to a quick Google search.)
I know that the one time my mom (I was very tiny) ended up with MERSA about to get into her knee joint she had those lines spreading out from what had been a tiny blister and went to the doctor right away and they called it blood poisoning because she was a laymen to medical things when I was very young. I don't think there _is_ a laymen's term for Lymphangitis and since we don't have one, blood poisoning will do-as long as people get to the doctor/hospital and stay safe and know it's bad.
@@Sgt_Robo great minds think a like. I think that probably the term/idea of "blood poisoning" (I have nothing I'm basing this on just a history degree and having read too many 1860s documents) probably originated first and then we actually began defining things as medicine became more of an exact science and we knew what we were doing.
This movie was very heart tugging to watch, lots of people are always like "if there was a zombie in front of me I'd take it down no problem" but when said person see's someone they care about get bit and infected, what will actually go through your mind? a part of you will say put them out of their misery but can you actually stomach the fact of putting down someone you love, especially if it's your daughter you raised all those years?
Okay so weird story time: I actually had this thought experiment with my mom and my dad separately. The ground rules were that it wasn't a reversible disease/something that could be fought against-it was full on walking dead.
My dad told me he'd not be able to do it, because he wouldn't want to be the one who "killed" me.
My mom thought for a long moment and said "I would know it wasn't you anymore, and if you were in there, somewhere, somehow, I wouldn't want to keep torturing you as you slowly rotted away in a painful death."
Which really stuck with me. I don't have kids so it's not like I can know what that exact parallel would be like, but I can imagine enough to know that if it was the conditions of "dead or being trapped in a decomposing body" that I wouldn't wish that upon anyone except for a tiny tiny number of people who are easily monsters already and then they only deserve to be put down because they _are_ monsters on the outside as well as the inside.
Definitely a tough call, was a pretty good movie

PS if you think Charlie 19 is over, don't.
PPS: there is a new version of HIV kicking around - variant VB (always reminds me of 70s vauxhalls) - three times as virulent, three times as quick and probably a lot more infectious - but by all means relax the restrictions on giving blood (and for those who lived through nvCJD, I can't see that going wrong either).
Something about these kinds of zombie diseases absolutely terrify me. The thought of losing your sense of self and only having the primal urge to eat is horrifying to me. It's kind of like dementia, where you slowly lose your consciousness until eventually nothing is left.

This movie depressed the hell out of me, but I loved how scarily close it came to mirroring real life and our current outbreak. That being said, I do not appreciate living through a historical event.

BigPharma also made record profits due to such as BigPharma funds most legacy media outlets.
Basically, Covid was a massive paycheck to the top 1% and a net loss for the other 99% who couldn't profit. Wal-Mart, Amazon, fast food places, etc saw massive increase in revenue while small businesses were treading water at best, shuttering at the worst.
In one way the "pandemic" was devastating though, economically.
I've never witnessed such a downscaling of quality of life in my lifetime (I am 58 years-old), in my town alone the main street lost over 50% of it's small businesses and has yet to recover (if it ever does) as property taxes, bills, utilities, etc have not been adjusted for the inflation the lockdowns created.
Technically we're always living in what one day will be History.
This movie came out during the time where my mom was rapidly declining with cancer. It really hit different.
You have my sympathies.
I'm sorry
While not the greatest zombie movie, or movie in general; I think Arnie actually did a really good job in a role that isn't just an action move. Besides his accent not making sense for the area, his acting is very well done.
The movie isn't a zombie movie the zombie stuff is just used for the catalyst of the plot. The film is really a simple drama about a man having to deal with losing his daughter and how his daughter deals with dying at a young age. It's a virus infection depressing family drama it isn't a Zombie movie.
There are a lot of German and Austrian farmers in Iowa Missouri and Kansas I think it can work but in this case I'm inclined to agree Arnold does seem to be misplaced lol 😆
whaddya mean not making sense?? the midwest literally one of the biggest immigration destinations for german, polish and irish immigrants. America is a melting pot. Dont ever forget that. People can live in any part from anywhere in the world and have a weird accent and its normal.
I mean wouldnt it be more weird if an american governor of a state spoke with a german accent?? That shit literally happened, in real life my dude.
@@boomstickcritique902 well its the same type of movie we've seen before, but just framed in the current zeitgheist which is apocalypse by zombie. If it was made when i was younger, it would have been post nuclear war, oh wait thats now too.
could be an immigrant so it still works
The human bottleneck, where around 10,000 breeding pairs(If I'm remembering correctly, that's 2 females and a male.) of humans were left after a massive volcanic eruption in the pacific. Just barely enough to sustain genetic diversity and allow us to repopulate.
Edit: Wait...Brompton cocktails aren't supposed to be painful. Docs in this movie messed up.
Maybe the cocktail is something to ensure there is no trace of a working nervous system or it's designed to make sure that no matter what happens, 'the dead stay dead'? A relative who worked at a vet told me the drugs used to euthanise animals hurts them a lot but there is a muscle relaxant in it so they can't cry out in pain.
EDIT: I do not know if the situation regards the vets has changed. It was a while ago that my relative worked there.
@@ptonpc
" the drugs used to euthanise animals hurts them a lot but there is a muscle relaxant in it so they can't cry out in pain."
Sounds more like the cocktails used to kill inmates on death penalty in the US. Vets here use a mixture of barbiturates and strong opioids and neither of them hurt, I can assure you that.
@@Hunk666 this is one of the things I never really understood. Why do lethal injection cocktails have such a track record of being painful in the extreme? We have opiates and plenty of other pain killers that are easy to OD on, why not use those?
@@jacobbrown7367
Well, I am not a proponent of the death penalty nor an US citizen but I can imagine that it would be seen as to "easy" to go via fentanyl OD rather than a painful mix of other chemicals.
@@ptonpc I wish I never read that now I’ll be wary when it comes to putting my dog down :(
It’s very refreshing to have a Zombie virus that can be explained by a lot more that “shit happens”. Thanks for your excellent theories and discussion.
zombie rodents is a fucking terrifying idea, with how they can get inside from just a small crack or hole that normally would seem inconsequential you'd have to be very careful in sealing up your home base, and keeping it clear. Also just imagine if you stumbled upon a colony of them, especially on the larger size which can get into the area of 150, getting swarmed and nibbled to death by a hundred tiny mouths sounds like one of the worst ways to go. If rodents ever do become zombies, lets just hope they don't start following the trope of zombies herding up and the necrosis hampers their ability to compress.
In the webcomic Stand Still Stay Silent all mammals (except cats because magic) can be infected. Despite there being monsters big enough to punch through armoured trains, the rodents are considered the most dangerous for that exact reason. They can sneak in through tiny cracks, run rampant, and dip without being seen
Resident Evil was like this, the rodents helped spread the virus once they came into contact when William Birkin was gunned down
Oh bruh, i read this super bad zombie LN and the only zombies that made me trully terrified were the insects and mice zombies simply cus even as normal mice/insects, we already have a hard time keeping them out of our house.
Tbh, mosquitos would be the end of us in a zombie apocalypse.
And if bugs can carry the virus then we just have no chance
"But all that really does is enable PVP"
Lmfao. Hazzah a fellow man of quality.
Gotta keep it family friendly 😂
I loved Arnold in Maggie. It showed so much depth in his acting abilities. This was a very human movie.
I had a tattoo done on my wrist a few years back, a few days later I noticed a red line going up my arm, thought nothing of it until it reached almost up to my shoulder. Decided I may as well let a doctor take a look, in which they informed me I had blood poisoning and rushed me to hospital. Put me on antibiotics and told me if I left it any longer i'd be dead......Lucky I got it checked really lol
This is an extremely similar comment to another about someone's mother getting a red line and getting to the hospital just in time. Curious.
@@cadkls We're both lucky then
@@cadkls Why curious? Technically any injury that isn't properly cleaned, like a blood draw where they used a sterile needle and cleaned the site beforehand would be safe but most of the injuries to our skin aren't like that, has a chance of becoming infected. A small percentage simply will because of bad luck. The ones that develop blood poisoning show up the same on any limb, so that's not unusual. The truly terrifying part, aside from when people ignore the line type and die tragic, preventable deaths like one or two people I've known, is when there is no line to see. Women who use tampons during their periods and don't change them often enough are especially at risk of developing toxic shock syndrome, where they go from feeling just flu-like under the weather to collapsing and possibly dying in a frighteningly short amount of time. You can also go septic with virtually no warning from an untreated UTI, and that's actually much more common in my personal experience. It happened to a former coworker, a friend's relative, and nearly happened to my own Dad.
@@amberkat8147 It's curious because of the reason I outlined in my first sentence. Their comment was near identical to someone else's.
Abigail Breslin (the girl who plays Maggie) seems to be the go to choice for a young girl in a zombie movie. She played Little Rock in Zombieland and Zombieland 2.
No one cares
Good on Maggy for jumping.
At least she was willing to do what was needed.
Hey Roanoke, I know you probably won’t see this, but thank you. The man who was basically my surrogate father committed suicide two days ago. Your videos have helped keep my mind off of things. I appreciate the hard work you put into these videos. So thank you
Sorry to hear. Hope you are okay (as well as could be).
Hey friend I send some hugs
I'm sorry for your loss
May he Rest in Paradise
Stay strong.
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I hope that you're able to find the support you need IRL. There are many free mental health/bereavement support programs online, if you need a little help. Access to therapy and mental healthcare can be difficult these days. You aren't alone. ❤
As Sam O’Nella once said “with enough harassment you can do anything”
Well damn lol
Protest in a nutshell
Especially coups, like Ukraine
"Wow such gaming" did a good analysis on that movie and while, as stated by several other people here, thunder seems to be quite normal in the midwest, it also works as a way to symbolize the catastrophe drawing near. If you listen closely, the thunder gets louder and louder during the movie the closer we get to the end of maggie turning, the dread and fear being small at first, but getting closer and unavoidable like the sheer power if nature thunder symbolizes
I was so excited for this movie when it released, but it was so depressing. Don’t think I would ever watch it again. It was definitely a unique take on the zombie genre though.
I just can't get it out of my head - who the hell wears those light, white dresses instead of normal pajamas or underwear for sleeping? Like that little zombie-girl or Maggie at the end of the film? It's pretty much a standard uniform for every ghost girl in horror movies. I know that they are supposed to increase the drama factor - the white material contrasts with blood and darknes, it contradicts our cultural habit of associating clean white with innocence and harmlessness, while the said ghost girls are anything but harmless - but still, not even my grandma wears it. Who even owns one these days?
You could excuse it by them being farmers out in the boondocks. The stepmom dresses in an older sort of fashion too.
It's called a 'nighty'. Tonnes of little girls wear nighties. Tonnes of adults wear nighties. Especially in summer (which this is), and especially in traditional areas (which this is). I have three (Black floral, while floral, polar bear).
They are uncomfortable as all heck I'm gonna stick to panties and a t shirt thank you
Jumping off the roof in your tank top and undies hits a whole lot different tone-wise, is my guess.
You answered your question.
It could actually be a mycophage fungal virus that jumped to humans. Infected mycelium in the soil could be the cause of the crop die off.
The sporothrix fungus already can infect people. It can create skin lesions, and spreads through the lymph nodes.
@@Draeorc just looked it up. It's definitely an interesting subject to read up on
The dooms day vault, artic seed storage, is honestly one of humanity's better ideas
This is honestly what i was thinking. Every plant relies on verious fungal species to act as an interface with the ground. Seems more likely its a fungal virus, or a human virus that infected the fungas.
Still would be EXTREMELY rare, but seems more likely to me.
6:36 I actually know a guy who raises cattle around here and when they're calving you're more likely to find him sleeping in a blind then his house. Dude will spend most of the night looking through a thermal camera for anything after the calves. At which point when he sees it gets shot in the head.
Oh and I forgot to mention he may have spent a few years as a corpsman sniper.
But just the amount around here who would nail a human sized head from a kilometer away is crazy.
Good way to keep the cows safe XD
@@RoanokeGaming for proper farmers you have to have a certain degree of flat ground meaning you have a really long way you can see and every one of these bastards has at the very least a hunting rifle
Unfortunately people don't seem to understand their life is worth more than that
Cockheads trying to steal copper out of everything
@@Rurik_Luci "For proper farmers you have to have a certain degree of flat ground" No, no you don't. Not a single bit of my land is "flat" and I'm a "proper" farmer.
And what's a "corpsman sniper"? Navy Corpsman are medical personal, not snipers.
The Heather Taffett haircut - there's a fair few politicians could benefit from a "trim"...
@@brandondavis7777 While yes you’re correct, he might be referring to marines who also have Corpsmen. Although I don’t know how it works now, I know that the reason the marines had corpsmen and not medics was because the Japanese would shoot medics, so to get around the laws of war where a medic can’t be armed, the corpsman came into being. At least in WW2, corpsmen were riflemen and medic at the same time, and would receive the same combat training.
Those spikes from cargo do exist, it's a sharp metal rod on a small can of compressed air.
They were found in isolated areas where you couldn't get to a hospital in time, it's to end any pain or suffering in an instant.
All that happens if you press the button, the air rushes out to the metal rod, which is firmly placed against your temple with a force of 490psi, the rod enters your temple, forces it's way through your brain.
The result is an instant painless death.
This is actually one of my favorite movies. Thank you for doing this one!
Actually as someone who has grown up in the midwest we do get a lot of thunderstorms I would find it completely believable with how little time passes in this movie.
Zombie breakdows are my favourite kind of breakdowns. I really can't wait until everyone plays through Dying Light 2, so that we can get an update on Harran Virus 2 electric boogaloo.
Could there be more storms due to crops burning? After the wildfires in California/Colorado there were thunderstorms built off the smoke plumes (water molecules condensing on the ash)
I actually think this is the gas. It almost acts as a cloud seeder in a way.
@@greenyodais yeah that’s what I’m talking about. I’ll have to look if the gas or the microscopic ash particles act as the nucleation point for cloud formation
@@gd2234_ admittedly I used text to speech, I meant case not gas lol
It'd at least explain the thick cloud cover a little since there's lots of moisture in plants
Take care of yourselves, be observant and don't put off going to the doctor or ER if you see that red line!
He ain't kidding about infections. I had an infected in-grown toenail one summer. While I was visiting my friend for the weekend, a red line began to run up the top of my foot. I went fast and about 12 hours after it showed up I had a bad fever and a sore throat. Needless to say, I ended up getting some hefty huge antibiotics. I spent the next week with the lymph nodes in my throat, so swollen my doctor had given me opioids for the pain (this was back in the 90's). It was terrifying and painful.
Love your work RG, I am super happy I found your channel!
Also
1. The thunder is metaphor for the storm that is creeping closer but never comes
2. I love how no one is in the wrong here. Everyone acted with just actions. All diff reasons but all scared for themselves and loved ones and others.
3. The "painful" cocktail i just realized its probably 1 more way to make it ethical because the infected who stopped feeling will feel something that makes them more human. It also ensures when they die they don't come back as zombies
The plains areas get tons of thunderstorms. I'm not a weather expert but could it be possible that all the burning fields are putting extra particles in the atmosphere for moisture to cling to and also add to the storms?
When we have big bushfires here in Australia the smoke can be enough to cause lightning so it makes sense that everyone burning their crops would have the same effect
No, It’s because we get wet warm air from the south Mixing with cold and dry air from the north.
Yeah but whenever humanity hits an extinction event like that, we can just sharpen some sticks and get to work.
Sharp sticks solved like 80 percent of our extinction events
And sheer dumb luck kept the diseases from doing it in the meantime
@@stormjin2242 humanity #1 💪💪💪💪💪
@@noormkdad5620 yes actually, we are the overlords of earth, but at this point an extinction level event would probably actually wipe us out, our immune system is slowly losing the ability to handle the diseases that would be in wild animals meat, not entirely, hunters deal with it fine, but by the end of the next century we won't be able to handle having to regress back that far anymore
About the people not gathering with something like this. It becomes the new normal, people stop giving any crap. I take a medication that keeps a condition in check. Considering what's been going on for awhile now, I could see people just vibing with things like this happening. Acceptance of the end.
"the new normal"
This. Life moves on and well adapt to new diseases. Losing a fraction of our population means very little in the end. Actually this is great. Less people.
Yea but there is always a real possibility of getting infected via fluids even when that infected is the friendliest person ever they can still unintentionally infect you eg. Having a conversation with your infected friend then spit/saliva flies out from them and lands on your body or hugging, touching etc.
Trust me, during the season, the Midwest is pretty much constantly on the cusp of a thunderstorm, sometimes the rumbling thunder even syncs for dramatic effect.
Lol I’m glad to see persistence can go a long way on your channel because that “All of us are dead” series definitely should be next. Not sure exactly how realistic the virus is but it’s a good watch and has some fictional depth for you to explore
So the year is 2015 you're standing within melee range of Arnold Schwarzenegger and he has an axe

Bro, I found your videos a while back and fell in love with it. I’ve always watched movies and tried to logic them. Even with the newest Texas Chainsaw movie lol. You’re awesome and your content is amazing. Keep it up bro!
Thanks my man! :)
It would be so terrifying to see your own body start rotting. And then starting to have cannibalistic urges? Yikes. The way they set up this zombie virus for this movie is a psychological nightmare.
Its so weird how in these universes humans apparently can’t be put to sleep like any other animal.
We have basically perfected the science of letting our beloved furry friends get a dignified end without any pain or distress, but I guess designing an epipen that basically just makes you ”fall asleep” all calmly is just to difficult?
I mean, Imagine the accidents that could happen with the Cargo needle!! Even when slaughtering animals in an extremely controlled manner you sometimes need to give them two bullets because the first one did not fully kill their brain.
They dont suffer during such a situation as long as you are effective when reloading and giving them another bullet, but if you just laid them down and let them be... If the brain was hit terribly wrong, they could still be awake and aware for quite some time without proper ability to controll their body!
Imagine having missfired your only needle, and not being able to move properly to crawl off a cliff or get a gun or something?! That would be horrifying!!
I mean, guns fail to kill people that try to shoot themselves in the head often enought that a headshot does not equal instant death. If a gun can fail to do the job, I would not put my trust in a single, slim needle.
Not to mention how scary it is to have to make such an abrupt desition. I would rather stab myself in the leg with an epipen and then feel myself slowly just fade out. Maybe even add some funny drugs to the mix so it feels nice.
Bruh, illicit drug overdose is actually the #1 cause of death among 18-45 year olds right now In the US as of December 2021.
Fentanyl does an amazing job of just turning you right off, often whether you intend to or not.
Might as well go out on a strong opiate like one of the fentanyl analogues. In a big surge of dopamine all your worries go away, consciousness swiftly follows, then respiration stops forever. Probably a better way to go out than 00 buckshot and no mess to traumatize whoever finds you that extra mile with gore everywhere.
I honestly think religion has a lot to do with it and where you happen to be from. Religion and society kind of dictate how you view and interact with death. It just so happens if you live in America or a similar country, things such as assisted suicide are seen as brutish, sinful, and morally bankrupt. It's unfortunate. I wish we had humane euthanasia for humans as we do for our furry friends who suffer. It's still always sad to euthanize something, pet or otherwise, but it is so much more beneficial all together.
@@lunaballuna
Yep. Pretty much fuck religion. Except you wrote it much more beautifully.
True but also work on your grammar
As someone from the midwest we do get a lot of thunderstorms, especially the great lakes area. And yes there can be a thunderstorms a few miles one way and you hear it but never hits you.
This was the movie where I saw Arnold's dramatic capabilities. It was quite underrated. Similar to Cargo.
Btw Roanoke, can you look at the physiology of the aliens in the movie "The Arrival", starring Charlie Sheen. 😊
@Roanoke Gaming I could honestly see the cops taking the lady to Jail that hid her infected family, as not just a means to punish but to keep watch on her for suicide prevention as she has just lost her family and it is likely that she would be in no good shape in her mind.
I've always wondered why there aren't more "harmless" zombies in movies, where they're literally just bodies with minimal brain activity. it's probably not as exciting, but it's a pretty cool twist to the average idea of violent zombies.
This movie was heartbreaking but beautiful. I loved it and I hate tragedies! He was ready to do what he had to when the time came, but there was just enough of her true self left for her to be able to walk away and spare him from having to. Also Arnold Schwarzenegger and Abigail Breslin were absolutely amazing!
8:40 - I'd argue that's more of a general human thing, not a "male" thing, that we become more talkative and sociable when working on a task together. Think about all the talk and gossip across the centuries at the laundry and in the kitchen, all places of group work that are more traditionally associated with women and feminine activities. I think that makes a lot more sense than saying humans with XY chromosomes are just inherently more social in these situations. 😅
You have a great point about using a project as a way for guys to open up, though, because it's a "manly" group activity that encourages talking, as opposed to getting lost in the crowd of a sports match, or maintaining the quiet at a fishing spot. Masculine people (of any gender!) face so much pressure in society to repress their emotions, and there are simply too few "acceptable" ways for them to open up to others. It bums me out.
There also evidence that men are actually able to think more clearly if there hands are engaged as well, that's what he was referring to I believe
Definitely would like to see the Jiralhanae a.k.a. the Brutes from the Halo series revisited, taking into account cinematics and whatnot from more recent entries like *_Halo Wars 2_* and *_Halo: Infinite_* for more up-to-date info.
You do an amazing job for so many different movies and games. The best breakdowns ever! Thank you
A great watch! Note from the Midwest on thunder/storms. Heat thunder is pretty common in hot months. Also the fact that they've been consistently burning crops can lead to that smokey sky and more rain as a result!
I loved this movie because it focused on more than just the infected, thanks for doing this movie it's one of my favorites
This was really well done and was so sad. I can't say I loved it but it is definitely up there as one to watch.
I have a friend who almost died from sepsis because he had a small infected cut on his leg that began travelling up to his heart. I'm not sure how far it had progressed exactly, but doctors said had he not came to the hospital for even a few more days, he likely would have died.
This is one of those solid gold heart movies, 10 out of 10 for relatability. It's easily relatable cause you see family of friends deal with these kinds of illnesses..
This movie is definitely about cancer. I remember discussions like with the doctor where my brother was lied to about his condition, only for my parents and I to be hit by a harsher reality. Where the steroids and chemotherapy changed his appetite randomly from never hungry to ravenous and embarrassed to be a day or two later. To his friends trying to be encouraging but eventually falling out due to the emotional stress. This movie hit me. Don't get me wrong, I like the movie and worldbuilding, but I couldn't see it any other way than a man losing his daughter to cancer
Watched half your video and was blown away by how authentic this movie is. Stopped and had to watch it myself... Man, that was a ROUGH ride 😥 Best, most heartbreaking, and realistic zombie movie ever made.
Now to finish your video! ❤
I thought they were burning the crops because it was the safest way to handle zombies lying in the fields. Like Maggie, Arnie, and that boy were attacked by zombies playing peekaboo in the crops so I thought that was the issue!
Can confirm that it does thunderstorm this much in the Midwest! Often during the summers, there might be a few days where it just is booming, slightly booming, and you can even see small booms in the far off distance. Lots of thunder here in the Midwest.
The best option for these types of zombies is chain mail, shark suits, or gimp leather/latex and padding. Anything to blunt the weak bites of humans while covering the skin to exposure. Bonus, for most the world it's not that bad of an option.
And for some reason, everyone is always running around in a tank top and shorts years after the zombies start
@@stormjin2242 worst part is, you can diy a chain shirt out of pretty much anything. Heck a few layers of shit, thick hoodie or a good jacket will solve almost all the bite problems.
A choker and medium work gloves for the rest.
You don't need to worry too much about the legs, but some shin guards or chaps. Or again a pair of thick sweats under a pair of thick jeans. Or even leather pants.
@@dramspringfeald exactly, it's not hard to stop their primary attack, and nobody in any zombie movie ever does, they just run around in light clothes at best, and then don't understand how things get so bad
@@stormjin2242 and then, "the bite is full of the zombie juice" one would assume so does the blood... That they bathe in all the time.
I love that every time you refer to the brain in your videos you call it "the giant nerd". Gets a chuckle out of me every time.
I never heard of this movie. It seems super interesting. Zombie movies always seem to be "get bit, turn into a zombie in under 1 minute, take off running in a rampage to clap as many cheeks vie your tusks as possible" I like how this movie portrays it.
Oh hey I remember this movie, but I never actually got through it. On another topic, have you checked out Star Trek: Voyager’s Macrovirus? It’s nearly impossible to explain biologically, but I’d love to see your take on it.
I can see what I can do!
Definitely worth watching this.
There are actually a lot of Trek afflictions Roanoke might like to look over, now that I think about it. The weird "the kids cause rapid aging" episode in TNG, the Viiridian Phage in Voyager...
@@Aethelos The phage still creeps me the fuck out. Not really sure why.
@@OverdramaticAngel Well, with a mass species-wide plague that causes severe, lethal-unless-replaced necrosis in their... Everything, to the point that their civilization set on scientific exploration, discovery, as well as artistic and scholarly pursuits, is all-but entirely warped into a species of organ harvesters.
TL;DR: "That could/could've been us" seemed like the vibe they were going for, so the permanent unease makes sense.
As a person suffering from mystery vertigo these videos are giving me hypochondria/anxiety...... Well done papa Roanoke well done.
Humble suggestion. Before season 2 of Invincible, look over how the Viltrumite purge affects their evolution. Know you aren't a geneticist but be fun to hear your thoughts on how they became immune to nearly every virus/bacterial infection and why it overrides other genetic coding.
Love your content, it is really visible all the effort and joy you put into it, keep it coming!!
This guy’s entire presentation is absolutely incredible! I truly enjoyed this video
Thanks for watching brother
I'm still anticipating for when Roanoke covers GTFO's sleepers when enough information comes available.
there is some information and plan on looking into it soon!
It is so cool to have a bio heavy channel. It is so underrated.
The red line thing happened when my cat bit me. Somewhere around 20 hours after the bite, I had a red line up to my bicep and promptly went to the hospital.
If a cat bites you deep enough to draw blood, go to the hospital ASAP! It's probably already infected because cats mouths are FILTHY.
Another potential reason for the thunder is the crop blight. If a significant number of farmers in the Mid West were all burning their crops, that would put a lot of smoke into the local atmosphere, causing a mixture of cool air and warm air and smoke, causing the thunder without rain.
This is in interesting one, not too often you see zombie virus movies handled in such a way.
Have you considered looking at the virus in The Last Ship? After season 1, the virus jumps from people to plants, which is similar to what happens in this movie.
Love your breakdowns... Could we maybe get one for All of Us Are Dead?? The whole time I was watching that I was thinking "I'm gonna need Roanoke to take a bite of this one... " If not, no worries... I'm sure these are a ton of work and a TV show might be too much. Just was curious wjat you would think of it.
Gotta check it out! havent branched out into the tv show area, but I may be able to eventually!
@@RoanokeGaming no rush!! There was some scientific stuff in there so I'm interested to see how plausible... Or where reality ends and fiction begins... I won't say more as to not spoil it but I genuinely love the show and think it's just plain excellent so at the very least, I hope you enjoy it video or not!!
I second this the amount of constant scientific explanation on how and why the Virus functions the way it does but only as the characters start to figure things out themselves was a nice touch
@@kittygoesdowntherabbithole4799 fiction begins with the survivors having any kind of wound while traveling through that school >_< they tried really really hard to justify things but the only sanitary spots left in the entire building at the end of the series is the ceiling (in some areas even this isnt safe) and the insides of most walls LOL. even the survivor's clothes would spell death if they didnt have plot armor.
however i 100% agree that "all of us are dead" treated an aggressive zombie virus pretty accurately ^_^ to me it was way more believable than walking dead. i appreciated that they saved noodle level gore for shock scenes and just stuck to sauce and meatball level the rest of the time. the biggest sin in any zombie show is the transformation time to be honest. aouad had the fastest turn time possible making it the largest zombie sin overall.
i will admit the 2 youtubers i look forward to checking out "All of Us are Dead" are *Roanoke Gaming* (for the virology science) and *Wow Such Gaming* (he does zombie sin counters).
My heart truly leaps when I see a new video is out
Thank you for watching!
I don`t think this is a virus at all. It seems a lot more like some sort
of prion. This would explain how it can jump between radically
different species, and why there would be no immune response, as well as
the nerve damage. It would be a lot like SCP-008, the zombie virus.
Although I have to admit that most prions would probably take a lot
longer.
I remembered this really well mainly bc I’m training as a combat medic in the US army right now and thought about this video whenever we practiced good sanitation and cleanliness before sticking others w needles, really good to keep in mind.
It's so comforting to see that I wasn't the only person on the chubbyemu binge for last few weeks, thanks man. Great video again and ill be back again for the next one
Okay I can gladly say was dead wrong. Roanoke is killing these videos regardless if it's game related or not
I honestly loved this movie. It was different, sad and nice to see Arnold in a non action movie.
Lived in Oklahoma for two years, during the spring it would threaten to rain almost every day, sometimes for weeks at a time. The transition of high and low pressure systems would mean bright and sunny during the day, but dull and stormy in the evening.
“Oh god it’s LIONSGATE!” That was the best part lol
i love how he always explains everything over and over again
It actually is very entertaining
That one guy constantly asking him to do Maggie reminds me of OJ asking AngryJoe if he wants to *play a zombie game*
Now I need to go look that up XD
Hey Roanoke. I'm definitely not a biologist or medical expert, but wouldn't a fungus be a better vector than a virus, since they can theoretically monopolize both plants and humans (avoiding the very difficult/impossible task of getting used to invading both plant and human cells)?
I was thinking this as well. A lot about this makes me thing fungus. Especially the black liquid, which doesn't seem to be just necrotic fluids.
That would also explain why it didn't so easily infect others.
There's a few pathogens(?), like Asters yellow, that if you see a plant that's infected, you burn it. Otherwise leafhoppers carry it from plant to plant, and it can effect a lot of plant species.
That is a good point. I had a fungal infection 8 years ago from the gym and that stuff colonized me. No over-the-counter antifungal worked against it. They finally prescribed me a new experimental antifungal and it took it about 2 months to kill it but then I had outbreaks every few months for the next two years. It had clearly left spores inside me.
I think a fungus would easily bridge the gap between plants and animals.
@@macmcleod1188 That sounds aggravating as all heck. I'm glad that it was finally able to be taken care of!
Something weird to me about Zombies is how bugs and maggots are attracted to them. I know it’s a dead body, but the flesh isn’t just necrotic, it’s basically poisonous.
Nothing really bothers maggots though. They are actually used medically if a person has a skin or tissue infection that is extremely hard to get rid of. They put the maggots on the infected tissue, the maggots eat it...it's food for them, and their saliva helps to produce new healthy tissue.
Yesss! Roanoke is the best almost 700k subs and soon to be 1 million!!! been with you since 100k and i complained why you only have 100k during the necromorph days
Such a good film whoever talked you into covering this film, good job!
