To be honest I can see this being the most real reaction people would have. Some would freak out, some would be a 'Oh, so this is happening now' and such. From how the world is nowadays, I wouldn't be surprised if people just saw a zombie invasion as a 'minor hiccup'
these days we'd get a outbreak in somewhere in cambodia or whereever and half the population would forget it happened a week later until it got to their neighborhood
@@gravtycat9741yeah it'd definitely end up starting in some tiny country with mo way to defend against or prevent it so within a week the entire surrounding geographical area is swarming with zombies lmao
0:26 I love how we automatically expect Adam Driver to dance around using the word "Zombie" for 15 minutes or make up some other bullshit word for the undead, but he just flat out says what any of us, the viewers would. "Yep, it's Zombies". And when she gives push back, they just coldly stare at her for a minute until she catches up. LMAO
For those who didn't see this one when it came out, don't feel too bad, they didn't really market it a ton, at least I didn't see a ton of marketing for it myself, but I saw Bill Murray and Zombies and I said to myself "I bet that would be a zombie movie unlike those done before it" and it turned out to be just that, funny, not too gory, well written and the fourth wall breaking, good stuff, watch it kids, it's a cool ride imo!!!...
The movie is fine but i'd say it's not gonna be for most people, but everybody involved is so good that it's worth a watch. Im convinced Jim Jarmush either lost or won a bet to make this one, could be either
I like how the zombies say their favorite thing instead of just saying "brains" it seems to add a personal realism to them, I guess if you hear some guy zombie saying "children" or "kids" over and over again, you better keep a closer eye on your little ones 😒
My guess was that they were simply repeating the last clear singular thoughts they had before death and they just repeat that like broken records. Adds a touch of sorrow to the macabre
Well... Dawn of the Dead (1978) of George Romero has the same message (only that is not say out loud, use subtext) and is one of the best zombie movies ever made and probably his best movie. But Romero was a great story teller.
@@jackelrikuroso3945 That's the point lol, this one spelled it out so it pulls you out of the movie to think about it rather than getting to think back on it after the movie has ended while talking with others
I don't think they are? Not in this movie at least. I think all the spelling out of the zombies as allegories for consumerism is an homage to other zombie movies that did this. It feels purposefully hollow. I think the movie is just making fun of the genre and more broadly it has a nihilistic absurdist vibe. If it leans into allegory it does so only insofar as it can mock it for being allegory in the first place. Long way of saying that it ain't all that deep, really
Based on the kids at the convenience store and the guy dragging a guitar... it seems like they've forgotten _why_ they want the things they want, and what the purpose of those things was. They barely even seem to acknowledge that they _have_ the object of their obsession - the kids weren't eating candy or playing with toys, the musician didn't play the guitar. Just hunger, unending and unsatisfiable.
@@HaloInverse maybe if you get the kids that say "ice cream" to actually lick the ice cream or put it in their mouth, maybe then they'll just sit there licking it or chewing on it till it's gone, then they'll go wandering around again, it would be interesting if they started saying something different like if the craving was satisfied.
I wonder if it was whatever their last 'target' they ever thought of before being infected. Why all the kids were going after candy, those people on their phone wanted wifi and bluetooth, everyone trying to get into the hardware store wanted drills. I'm sure it wasnt meant to have any sorta depth beyond just being a hilarious idea- but it could almost be how the 'virus' makes its victims pursue the living, by keeping their brain focused on retrieval of an item

I get that it's tougher cause you have to involve a child actor and make up and all that, but damn it would make the world feel more immersive if they could squeeze in that kind of reality.
Walking Dead had kid zombies, usually as a way to show that nobody was safe from turning into a zombie, also as a plot point to make people hesitate before shooting, cause the back of your mind would still be like "it's just a kid" while the rest of your mind would be like "but they're still a zombie, shoot shoot, they gonna eat you"
@@dionjaywoollaston1349 Hmm if that religious area movie was like this one, I have no doubt that there would be a zombie walking around saying "Jesus.....Jesus"
That lady doing makeup should know that corpses naturally have open eyes. That's why people used to put copper on eyelids to weigh them down and stop them from opening. It would be part of her job to stitch the eyes shut.
It was fine I just hated the ending. They kept on breaking the fourth wall, so why don’t they shatter it? When the zombies surround the main characters, the director says cut. The actors all are alive and complain about the movie. Or something
It wasn't as good as Only Lovers Left Alive, but I thought it was still underrated as a deadpan comedy. I think Jim did good with his exploration of offbeat horror comedies.
He was loading the barrel, pretty normal. Loading a completely empty shotgun you would open the action allowing you to inspect the gun and tube confirming it is empty. Place one into the barrel, close the action and load the tube. This would give you a full shotgun.
normal for shotguns with that he may have only 3 or 4 in the tube with that it give you 1 + with the Benallie m4 you can load 2 in there somehow its even in its manual called ghost loading if memory is right but that is not the right sound if you realy want to nitpick
This movie was probably one of the best in theater movies I watched. It’s dry humor was so funny because I could tell that everyone around me had no idea what in the tarn was happening and I found that to be just as funny as the movie
My general reaction to zombies IRL would probably be the same. "Oh, guess this is whats going to be happening now. Welp, guess I'll have to carry a sword with me at all times. What time does the store close now?" What the hell else is new?
A lot of films like this missed the point of Shaun of The Dead, and that it’s the characters that are funny but the zombies are played completely straight. Everyone reacts as to how a normal person reacts to a zombie invasion
I did not enjoyed much the movie. It has it moments but there just a few. If only they made Tilda Swinton the protagonist instead of a minor supporting character. She was the scene stealer and I would have loved to see her backstory more.
Society is not that far removed from this. Just saw some zombies 🧟♀️ in Baltimore a few months ago bobbing around in the middle of the street near the aquarium.
It's a typical Jarmusch film - first few watching made me wonder if I missed The Joke or it The Joke would be revealed at the end. No. Rewatching it doesn't help either. It has one great aspect - the cast.
