The unusual story of a Zombie falling in love with a human
No this person was not on any type of drugs or bath salts,
which are known to have zombie-fied effects on a human. The new, hyped movie “Warm
Bodies” has hit cinemas with a blast! Teenage girls are going crazy over the
different style film which stands aside from the usual boy meets girl…blah blah
blah they fall in love, the end! No! it plays along the lines of a world wide
epidemic, causing humans to turn into corpses. Main character R stumbles around
the airport where he calls home, questioning why he can’t connect, why he can’t
feel, then realising he’s dead. R is different from all the other corpses, he
feels the need to become alive again and connect. Although the world has not
fully ended, inside New York behind a great, big, iron wall lives the rest of
the alive human beings trying to survive off what they can. In need of medicine
a group of humans head out of the shelter and look for medication. Suddenly a
group of zombies, including R raid the humans where R eats main character Julie’s
boyfriend Perry. After eating Perry, R sees Julie and falls into a love daze
where his heart pumps once. R covers Julie in blood and takes her back to his
home “the airport” and saves her from the other zombies. Days pass and they
begin to start a relationship, R saves Julie multiple times and they share
every waking moment, well R does because he can’t dream, he spends time with
Julie, repeating “Keep you Safe”. Julie protests that she has to go home so R
agrees to help get her there. After one last time of Julie escaping R’s safety
she reaches the iron boarded home. R is heartbroken and returns home to then
come across his best zombie mate and others who have also felt “alive”. The bad
guys in this film are the Bonies, Skeletons who use to be corpses, who use to
be humans. They don’t feel anything and will eat anything with a heartbeat,
hence why the zombie’s who are starting to feel again have been chased out of
the airport and are now hunted by the Bonies. R is told that Julie is in danger
and goes to find her beyond the iron boarded shelter, trying to hide his
corpse-like body. He finds Julie and is revealed to Julies friend Nora, where R
explains that the Bonies are coming for them and that all the corpses are
changing, “dreaming”. Julie goes to her father who is chief of the military,
with R and tries to explain that the corpses are changing. Expectedly he didn’t
believe her and R and Julie are forced to run from the army to meet up with the
other waiting corpses. A fight breaks out between the zombies and bonies and
the military are left to be confused on what to shoot. The corpses and humans
join forces to kill all the bonies and R and Julie are left after falling to
the ground into a fountain, passionately kissing. He then transforms into a
human and the world is saved because the corpses become human again. R and
Julie are now in a relationship.
Although this movie similarly falls into the category of
beauty and the beast love, like other films like Twilight. This film is one of
a kind, something fresh, something new, something that I have fallen in love
with.
