Based on Isaac Marion's novel of the same name, Warm Shell, Warm Body is known as a zombie version of Twilight. The film was directed by Jonathan Levine and co-starred Nicholas Holt and Teresa Palmer. The film was released in the United States on February 1, 2013.
The film tells the story of a zombie named "R" who develops an inexplicable affair with the girlfriend of one of his victims, which leads to a chain reaction that will change him, his fellow zombies, and the lifeless world.
The idea of this movie is actually not new, nothing more than the redemption of love, but the main characters become zombies and humans, but it is rare. The opening scene of the movie is very gimmicky and very attractive. The inner monologue of the zombie brother shows a zombie world. He said he didn't know if other zombies were like him, but the truth was... He is the representative. The film uses him as the main line and theme, showing the inner desire of the entire zombie community.
After Twilight, this kind of teen movie with elements of traditional vampire movies and zombie movies has indeed risen and changed. But in the eyes of the film's creators, this is not a vampire or zombie movie in the general sense.
As the most orthodox successor to the "Twilight" series, "Warm Corpse" is the same as the previous game in terms of story, theme, plot and starring. Like Twilight, the director of Warm Corpse doesn't think it's a "zombie movie" in the traditional sense.
Director Jonathan Levine said: "I don't want fans of zombie movies to put this movie under the category of zombie movies, and think that such stories are breaking new ground in zombie movies.
Pioneering the romantic love of zombie genre films! Very pleasant experience of watching the film, unexpectedly witty and interesting, and the soundtrack is quite outstanding. Finally you'll find, oh, it turns out to be Romeo and Juliet!
The male protagonist is very cute and tall, and it is 192cm. I have been expecting him to become handsome after becoming a human or humanoid, in fact, zombie makeup is already the peak level of his appearance, and the normal is some passers-by. Acting skills are also there, he plays a zombie because he has not spoken for a long time, he is very restrained when speaking, much more restrained than his friends. Much like a Chinese who doesn't speak a foreign language but travels abroad, ka has a lack of oxygen in the brain.
The heroine from Australia is also very good, and the 27-year-old is still like a high school student. The acting skills are all focused on facial expressions, and a smile and a frown are all likeable. I liked the way she and the hero were running while dodging skeletons, and there was a healthy sense of beauty that I had seen in Tomb Raider many years ago, when Julie was a runaway girl in Foxfire, and had not yet been involved with Pete and a bunch of adopted children.
Many people in summing up this movie say that eating your boyfriend's brain plasma, gaining his short memories, and then falling hopelessly in love with you. But in fact, there are many scenes in the film that will move you to tears.
Whether it is a zombie or a vampire or a werewolf, as long as you have a literary male heart as long as you are handsome enough, there will always be girls who fall in love with you, even if you eat her boyfriend's brain plasma, even if you want to suck her blood.
Film camera and music are the highlights, except in the dim scenes, the whole film is as bright as possible, the image is different from the previous zombie films, and the setting of vinyl records, crystal balls, BMW sports cars and zombie friends also meets the small romantic and comedic atmosphere of youth romance films.
Romance is not serious, zombies can fall in love we all accept, and then entangle the plot development "this is not scientific" on the fall, at least in romance and COOL these two points, the warm corpse is very sincere.
Finally, I have to say that I personally like the title of the film, warm corpse, warmth is a good word, especially with the theme of love.
