Zombie: You better know, You better how!
Updated: Jan 21, 2022
There are many horrors and thrilling movies hence, the zombie is my favorite!
Not November yet to talk about scary – spine-chilling, hair raising, frightening, perhaps gross as others define it, zombies. For sure many of us are very familiar with these things. This is not our all-time favoite music that we used to sing from the karaoke. Don’t tell me, you haven't seen familiar with zombie yet? Many definitions on the internet as when we look for the definition, there are many origins where did this thing came and started. In an informal definition, a zombie is a person who appears lifeless, apathetic, and very unresponsive to their surroundings. Zombies are also known as walking corpses. On a mythical thing, that undead is called “re-animated”, others sometimes called them the living dead. In addition, to give you a background on where did this Zombie myth started, it came from the Caribbean.
To define it simply, zombies were defined as a reawakened corpse and portrayed as robotic beings with rotting flesh that only mission is to feed. Zombie was also stereotyped as man-eating brains. Some defined it (zombie) as fictional, which was indeed true because there were no pieces of evidence or a report that this was happening so far in real life. Here’s another story that there was also some sort of false information that some people connect to these fictitious creatures that will soon due in large part to the COVID-19 vaccines. That this wild tales caused hesitancy for some to be vaccinated. Reminder to not believe to false information’s. Be critical, read or watch news online or on the television, you can also research about it and be more knowledgeable to what is right and will help us.
Sound scary, right? But what if one day, out of nowhere everyone started to be an act as if a carrier of ‘zombie viruses that we just watch on the television? What should we do? Are you going to survive? Are you ready to fight for your lives?
On top of that, you should know your enemy. If that is what you want to know, here are some movie series and films that might help you to get to know them. There is a long list of best zombie movies, if you have no idea what to watch first, here are some zombie movies that are highly recommended only just for you! Sit back and relax, start binge-watching these movies (of course after you finish this), enjoy your peaceful condo living before thinking about the apocalypse to come to our land.
Sweet Home
Sweet Home is a Korean tv series. In this series, the monsters here are not so typical. From zombies, as I will derive my definition on a Pokemon show (kidding aside), the zombies here are evolving into different and powerful monsters. So, even if you have watched a lot of zombie films or series, you may notice the uniqueness of Sweet Home from those.
One thing that you’ll learn in this movie when it comes to survival is that your place should be prepared for a maximum-security level. So that when you are currently looking for a place, highly recommended those with accessible convenience stores or the nearest supermarket for the food supplies just in case you run out of supplies.
It is originated in Korea as well. A 2020 film about survival in a zombie apocalypse. Of course, some will say that all zombie movies are about to teach you survival or an idea of what those things are, but then I’ll assure you that you may enjoy this one! When you’re living in a place alone, like a condo you’ll get a good tip from this movie. Communication is the key to survival, that’s what you will learn from this movie.
Resident Evil
Without a doubt, tell me it’s Resident Evil with telling me it is. How will you not know this strong woman, undying, genius, perfect - Alice? She’s the man girl, she’s indeed the man! Just so you know, she has a very important role in the film. Undying? Yes! Of all the Resident Evil films, you will wonder how this human – a woman could survive those battles with these monsters. Even those monsters are ten times bigger and stronger than her, she always has a plan on how to escape and be still alive.
To be able to survive in a very complicated situation, particularly in a zombie apocalypse, better to use your brain and come up with a plan before these zombies run and catch you and eat that as fresh meat. Peace!
Train to Busan
This one indeed is a must-watch! Who would’ve thought that the child and the pregnant woman were able to survive the outbreak on the train? Train to Busan, it is from Korea as well. And hello to those lady fans of Gong Yoo out there! Unfortunately, better not to be a spoiler, better to put this on your list of zombie movies to watch after reading this.
This film even showed the man versus man conflict. Despite the apocalypse, some people still do not succumb to greed.
World War Z
Better not to skip this one! If you wanted a very thrilling zombie film, that makes your heart exaggeratedly jump out of your chest, you better watch this! Aside from that, for the safety of his family, Gerry Lane played Brad Pitt, a former U.N investigator. To find the source of the infection, Gerry leads a worldwide search. With a stroke of luck and the help of science, Gerry becomes successful in finding the cure for the world’s chaos. You better see it for yourself on how the magic happened.
Zombie Land
When talking about survival tips, you should put this on top. The best always saves to be the last. This film tackles different survival rules that really might help you along the way in fighting for your life. But then, this movie will test your trust at some point. In this movie, you will be taught that in times of a life and death situation, you better think of what to consider to be still alive, if you will save your life or save the love of your life?
What to do if the Zombie apocalypse happens?
From the movie Zombieland, here are some of the best rules for surviving that might be applicable in a real-life situation when the apocalypse happened.
Cardio – run as fast as you can. Some stereotypes that zombies are just the “walking dead”, but unfortunately, you’re wrong. Just like our technology, zombies also know the term innovation. They can run as fast as you, so better to warm your limbs up and run! Hence, it wasn’t enough to just be fast on your feet, better if you have a vehicle or any transportation which will help to get you out of the middle of chaos. This will bring me to the second surviving rule.
Seatbelt – Always wear your seatbelt when you are inside the vehicle. You will not know the possible circumstances. Cliché this may sound but, better to be safe than sorry.
Travel Light – All things are possible in times of chaos. Travel light means all the essential things that you may need for days to survive. We Filipinos sometimes overpacked, but given the possibility, we should change the usual. Your life is more important.
Double Tap – Just in case you have the chance to encounter a zombie, you can able to some skills that you got from the movies that you have watched. Double-tap also means confirming your kill. Zombies can be dead by heating them on the head. But to be sure that you are already safe from these monsters, better for you to turn them into double dead meat perhaps.
Pretty to see familiar faces – To be able to see familiar faces can make you lessen your worries and anxiety. You will have the peace of mind that you are not the only one who was still alive and fighting for those monsters to be able to survive.
Enjoy little things – One factor that is important to do in chaos. Beyond the bad things happening around you, enjoy even the little things such as food, water, a phone charger, or even a Wi-Fi signal to connect with your loved ones.
