Today, let's talk about the movie "Love and Monsters".
Title Love and Monsters / Monster Problems (2020), alias Monster Problems.
Love and Monsters is a eschatological film about a human being who has only 5% left due to disaster.
The film's seemingly rudimentary posters in a bunch of apocalyptic movies seem inconspicuous, but if you ignore the film, you're missing a visual feast.
The background of the story set in this film is very interesting, an asteroid crashed into the earth, and humans used global force to launch a large number of missiles and blow up the asteroid. I thought I had escaped a disaster, but I didn't expect to be happy too soon. A large number of missile propulsion fuels fell on the earth, causing the cold-blooded animals on the earth to be mutated and become incomparably large, almost all of them hundreds of times larger. The thermostatic animals, on the other hand, were not affected and remained in their prototype shape.
The mutated cold-blooded animals include not only cold-blooded reptiles, but also a large number of insects. The large-scale monsters began to prey on humans, and humans were soon slaughtered, leaving only 5% of the survivors to hide in underground fortresses and survive.
The male protagonist, Joey, and a group of friends hide in the underground fortress, and the daily consideration is to resist the invasion of monsters and survive. According to the survival standards of the end times, Joey himself is very weak, and when he sees the monster, he is frightened and motionless, and he can survive by relying on his surrounding thighs.
Even so, the adolescent Joey also has a heart that can't stand the restlessness. Sweet talking on the radio with his girlfriend Amy every day could not relieve his pain of lovesickness, and he decided to go up to the ground and travel seven days to his girlfriend Amy's camp.
In this way, the waste wood has embarked on a thrilling adventure. Joey needs to grow from a standard scrap of firewood to a wilderness survival master, and to win the hearts of beauty, it is simply a fantasy adventure.
"Love and Monsters" was released in October 2020, which is quite a good time point for a bad 2020. Watching foreign countries fail to control the epidemic, a feeling of the end of the world has quietly struck.
It's just that the movie replaces the epidemic with reptiles and insects. The same seems to be a small and helpless thing, the inconspicuous virus can make humans toss and turn dead, and so can huge reptiles and insects, which could originally kill several insects with one foot, and now one can single out the tank. The great contrast makes people feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
Fortunately, the setting of "Love and Monsters" cannot happen at a scientific level.
Species such as insects cannot become too large without an increase in the oxygen content of the air. Oxygen content determines the size of these creatures, and insects have no bones, and if they are too big, they will crush themselves. Cold-blooded animals do not need to be mentioned, and when the weather is cold, they will be slaughtered.
If this magical event really happens, I believe that the first thing you will study will definitely be how to make spicy lobsters, French baked snails...
Judging from the film's effects, "Love and Monsters" is unexpectedly good-looking.
Looking at the mediocre and even somewhat clichéd posters, it is easy to think that this is a clichéd apocalyptic movie with no highlights, but after watching it, you will find that this is a treasure movie.
Love and Monsters is a bit of a Fallout flavor and is perfect for adaptations into adventure games. Whether it is the doomsday sandbox, ACT, or RPG, you only need to carry it forward on the basis of the setting of the movie, and you can play it.
The film relies on exquisite special effects CGs to outline a fresh apocalypse with rich details. The last days are not always gray and dark, and the last days will be full of sunshine, and there will be lovers everywhere. Joey has grown from waste wood to outdoor celebrity, and to a large extent, he has met good people who have taken the initiative to help. In addition to the indispensable garbage man as a villain, most people are still healthy and good people.
The end times will not only have monsters, but also love.
And the final foothold of the film is also very positive, although it is ridiculous to use love as a guide to action, but in this bad environment, we need this positive energy to cheer up.
In the film, Joey shuttles back and forth in the wild, and in reality, people risk death to fight the epidemic, is not it to love themselves and the people they love can be safe.
Of course, Joey's emotional experience is also really tragic, you can take it as a warning, don't talk to the girl to think of the child's name.
Eliminate human tyranny, the world belongs to cold-blooded animals,
Warm apocalyptic movies, full of love and surprise treasures.
